| Probably for the first time in the his
tory of bowling in Washington two
players rolled sets of more than 400 in
| duckpins last night. Charley Wright,
lead-o man for the Gandils in the
| Arcade circuit, and skinny" Carroll.
third man for Palace In the National
Capital. slashed into the pins for counts
of AS and 404. respectively.
| Wright's biggest game was his first,
| 1863 pins being registered by him. He
| knocked down 100 in his second and
| then got a count of 129 in his last
While Wright's set. was higher than
| that of Carroll, the latter got a better
game than Wright, exceeding the Ar
! cade League mans mark Of 16s by one
pin. CAROLS scores in his contests
were 113. ITO and 121.
Such remarkable scores in one night
can be attributed to only one thing
the use of the big balls. 1t Is not
probable that marks such as were reg
istered would ever be gotten with the
small ones: at any rate. they never
were when the five-inch balls were In
sole use.
The Gandils rolled their games against
a forfeit by the Imperials. Only thre>
members of the latter team were on
hand for the match, and they refused
to bowl. incidentally, the Gandils
broke one Arcade League record and
equaled another. The set Of LES was
the best of the year and the game of
in the year. The team scores were
$50 in the first contest. 532 In the sec

| The bureau team defeated the Ma

three in the Capital City circuit. Ma

/ tests. The ljaundrymen won the first
game by So to 514. but the bureau five
came right back and took the second
| and third by scores of 57S to 52I and
