CBY sCHWEITzERD

The cool weather of the past two
weeks has stimulated interest in the
>owling game in Tulsa Many of the
IA heads have kept their hand in
t>throughout the summer months by
bowling occasional games and this
year is expected tor be record
breaker as to the class of bowling
and the number of participants in
the sport.
There are three alleys each at the
Arcade and Palace parlOrs two at
the Y. NJ c. A., one at the Tidal Oil
company's offices, and one at II. f.
Sinclair's residence, with prospects
of two more alleys in the basement
of the new Sinclair Oil company
building which is to be erected soon,
and four in another public parlor
which is now proposed
or n total of approximately two
hundred bowlers of varying degrees
of ability in the city, there are
probably dozen men who are the
equals or peers of the best bowlers
in the entire southwest, among whom
are Coss. Middaugh. McBirncy, San
ford, Hubbartt, NJ f.. Cline, Pitcher,
Stewart Stauffer. Breckenridge Gil
lette Abbott, Boiling, Sloan, Dorm,
Sooy, Duell father and son and
others.
Mr.. william Middaugh. a recent
arrival in Tulsa from Texas, and a
former resident of New York city
and Washington, ID. c., says that in
all his experience he has never seen
so enthusiastic and keen bunch of
bowlers as those in Tulsa. Although
he is in the two hundred" class Of
bowlers himself, he says that he
knows of at least twenty men in
Tulsa who can make him extend
himself to the limit to win. He has
Identified himself with the local
bowlers whom he hopes to organize
into an association which will be-
come affiliated with the National
Bowling Association of America
which controls all championship
games bowled annually at the Amcri-
can Bowling congress meets 1t is
not unreasonable to believe that a
team can he developed this year to
try for the state championship and

later take part in the a. b. C. tourn-
ament.
The Arcade alleys have just under
gone a complete renovating, and have
been leVeled, refinished and polished
like new. The Palace alleys are also
in excellent condition. The Y. NJ. c. a.
will put its alleys in perfect con-
dition at once also. These public al
leys, together with the private alleys
owned here, will give all bowlers an
ample opportunity to practice during
september and be prepared for the
drawing for membership in the city
league of five-men teams which It
Is expected to organize in October
Harry Stewart has already picked his
IeNas Company team coisisting of
himself, Goss, Middaugh, Mccoy and
Mckerren and will meet all comers
The bankers will probably have a
team this year with Jim McBirney
Arthur Newlin, Arthur Hendren and
others to boost it, while the real
estate men with NJ. f.. Cline and his
brother II. II. Cline, Pitcher and
others as its backbone. Judge Hreck-
inridge will probably organize q pro-
fessional mems five. with himself,
Carl Magee, Doctor Burhans and
others to keep them at the top. The
Country club with Ralph Stauffer,
with lot of other good men should
also show well. The business men
should have a fine representative
team in Abbott, Sanford, Dye. Schar-
fonberg and Weinceke Boiling will
probably secure enough good men
from the Gypsy office and fill out
with the two Dcuels father and son,
and two of the most consistent men
that ever won pennant. Cardiff and
Dorm, with Ewing, Hdbbartt and an
other good man would complete a very
good league 1t is likely, however, that
Il sort of preliminary season will be
played first with each captain choos-
ing his own team so AS TO set line
upon this years bowling ability of all
contestants. Then when the real
league season begins, the weaker men
will be allowed handicaps in various
amounts so as to equalize all the
teams regardless of what team a man
may happen to bowl with.

CAPTAIN MILLER
HAS SQUAD OUT
Tulsa High School Gridiror
Warriors Begin Real
Hard Work.

If you are too fat, If you have been
smoking cigarets, If you have been
staying up late at nights, If you are
soft from having worked in an office
and If you want to get over these
things, report to Coach Baker of the
Tulsa high school football squad.
Being high school boys very few
of the candidates took pains during
the summer to keep themselves in
condition. As a result the first thing
that Coach Baker announced on the
program was a thorough overhaullng
OF the physical conditions of the
candidates.
Resultant from this week. about
twenty men will line up tomorrow
for Il second dose of the remedy with
good start on those who report
this coming week.
Captain Leon Miller, backfield
man, Harley Aitkn, end and Har-
ley Price, backfield were those OF
the 1915 squad who were out last
week. All of these practically have
berths bedded for them, provided
they put in conscientious work.
The surprising amount of new ma
terial which showed up last week
gave a much roster hue to the high

1915 line.
Kierer, heavy nan from
Broken Arrow, is promising to sue
ceed to regular Job as fullback.
McWilliams. a youth Of almost two
hundred pounds tonnage from Sand
Springs, is expected out this week.
Those who reported last week
were Miller, Aitkin, Price, Kiefer.
Henderson Carter, Brown ChadweH,
Stark, Bailey. Wolfe, SSser, Parker.
The high school will remain I'm the
Oklahoma Athletic association this
year, despite the fact that four Of
the large western cities, including
Oklahoma city, have Withdrawn to
form an association of their own.

many Of its larger neighbors on the
