CINCINNATI PREPARING
FOR BOWLING TOURNEY
Contracts Let for Construction of
Sixteen Alleys for Meet
Starting February 16.

Contracts have been let during the
past few days for the construction of
sixteen standard alleys in the Ohio Ma
tional Guard armory at Cincinnati for
the International bowling tournament
to be held from February 1s to March
10. under the auspices of the American
Bowling Congress
That interest in the bowling game is
intense is evidenced by the fact that
for the tournament even at this early
date show larger number of entries
than at any previous tourney in which
they have participated. This means
substantial additions to the general
prize money and also assures the reali-
cation of the estimate of $4,000 for
distribution among the winners
Cincinnati established a precedent for
entertainment at the international
tournament in 1908 that has ever since
given added impetus to these annual
gatherings of bowlers. And it is prom
ised that for the 1918 tournament a
further advance will be made by the
Cincinnati officials in the matter Of pro-
viding conveniences and special fea-
lures for the edification of visitors
Arrangements also have been COM
pieted for the annual tournament of
the Woman's National Bowling Asso-
citation. to be held on the tournament
alleys Immediately following the
American Bowling Congress contests
1t is reported that there have been sub
stantial addition to the lists of woman
bowlers during the year, leading to
the inference that this feature of the
sport will greatly exceed in magnitude
all former woman tournaments.
Entries for the international tourna-
ment, under the auspices of the Ameri-
can Bowling Congress, close on Feb
ruary ]. Entry blanks and general in
formation may be secured from A L.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden December 21.
The fate of the Aland Islands Is be-
ing debated with increasing earnest
ness in Sweden. If this country had
othsr avenues of territorial expansion
II aould doubtless attach less inpor-
tAnfe to the chance of getting posses
sion of 200 or 900 more or less tiny and
sterdhe outcrops of storm beaten rocks
where few s-unted pines and patches
Of whortleberry and coarse grass strug-
gle for foothold in the granite ciefts.
But the total absence of colonies masni-
fies the Alands in the eyes of Swedish
people.
The Germans clearly realize this and
they tactfuily abstained from occupy
ing the isIets though they could have
done so at any time in the last year or
so, From a reliable source / learn that
a council of Baltic powers, 1ncludlne
sweden. Germany and Russia. is likely
to assemble soon TO consider the mat
ter and also that Germany intends 10
support Swedens claim to CONSIDER
able extent, desiring this country tc
acquire full rights and sovereignty 10
about two-thirds of the islands com
prising the western archipelago. while
Finland gets similar rights TO the

Germany has no use for the ISLANDS

Carpenter, Timid as Boxer,
Has Proved Hero in War

1t Is n rather strange thing that
Georges Carpenter, once held to
be something of n gutter in the
ring, should have distinguished
himself above all other pugilists
in bravery and devotion to duty
as a soldier. When Carpenter
first took up boxing he had a way
of "rcsiEninE" whenever the go
ing became too hot for his liking,
His actions In his bout with Cum
boat Smith, when he claimed n
foul, pretending that he had been
badly injured by n blow that
merely glanced of the top of his
head. did not add anything to his
reputation fer Eameness. But as
n soldier Carpenter hns made a
record that Will live. He has won
the cross of war for conspicuous
bravery in flying over the enemy
trenches at low height. and is
famous for his daring.

Dartmouth will play its big foot ball
games next fall with Penn State, SYRIA

met at Springfield. Brown will be play
ed at Boston and Syracuse at New
York. This is the second consecutive
year that Penn State has gone to New
England to meet the big green COM

reciprocal agreement whereby Dart
mouth is to appear at Penn State for
two consecutive years on Pennsylvania

Authorities at Penn. State have de-
termined to close the college on April

available for use on the farms and in

If the Yankees do not secure Derrill
Pratt, Miller Huggins will have a fine
young second baseman in Fewster, late
of the BaItimores.
Chief Meyers is wintering on a farm
in Connecticut and is anxious to sign
with one of the major league clubs.
Big Ed Reulbach is said to have re-
tired. He shortened his career by TAX
ing too deep an interest in the Players
Fraternity
Sam Crawford is quoted as saying
that Ty Cobb is the real manager of
the Detroit Tigers.
AS the Detroits need pitchers, why
didn't President Navin buy Joe Bush
from the Athletics?
If President johnson had his way the
Yankees would get number of star
players. But Big Ban cannot prevent
his club owners from outbidding one
another.

Sweaters, the knitted kind. have given

half covered with small bits Of en-
