Southeast alleys, down by the Navy
Yard, when a league record in the
Southeast circuit was broken and

eide one of the games between S. E.
Stars and Anacostia. 1t proved one
of the most sensational evenings in
the career of Pete Maloney's new en-
terprise and when the sawdust had
all been swept up and the clouds of
smoke cleared away, Shipley was
found to have concealed a record of
161 for high individual game some
where on his person, and the South
east Stars were found to have won
two out of three games from their
opponents. Shipley improved on the
former record of ISL established by
Langley.
Indeed, it was night of nights as
the above described activities testify
and the fans made real old stove

ating that new mark for the season,

in itself we'll worth being proud of.
Southeast Stars pulled away to a
substantial lead in the opener and
placed twenty-five pins between
themselves and the lads from across

Stars succeeded in widening the mar
gin to sixteen pins. 1t was in the
third string that the tie occurred,
each club telling exactly 522 pins.
