Know all We men by these presents,
greetings: That the Parks, Of the
Mt. Pleasant Duckpin League, have
come so near cinching the pennant
In that little colony of pinners that
the other seven teams in the league
are all discouraged up-that is, as far
as their hopes for dislodging the
present leaders from the top rung Of
the ladder are concerned. Having
galloped along in first place for
more than two months and having
added three brand new victories to
their already lengthy string, the
Parks blossomed forth last night as
the real pennant chasers of the cir
cult, when the Securities were
dropped" in all three games.
The first tangible indication of the
strength of the Parks and of their
firm and deeply rooted determination
to declare themselves the superior
team came a week ago tonight when
Decaturs, the present runners-up,
were Caught" in all three games.
The advantage gained then gave the
bowlers real hope for achieving their
lofty aspirations, as their one COM
petitor had been successfully dis
posed of, not to be encountered again
for seven weeks. Last nights three
victories at the expense of Security
added the margin which places the
Parks in the light of champions, and
today there are few followers of the
circuit but who feel that the Parks
will be the team to drag down the
gonfalon when the season is ended.
