FOUR BOWLING
LEAGUES PLANNED

Plans for four bowling leagues for
the new Twigg alleys were laid at a
meeting Of the bowlers of the city at
the alleys Sunday.
The alleys are equipped to care for
two league. contests each night, and it
is planned to have four leagues of six
teams each, with three match games
in each league a week. The four
leagues that have applied for the use
of the alleys are the Knights of Co.

City league.
Two OF these leagues formerly used
other alleys. The Business Mems
league and the Industrial league are
new in the bowling circles of the city
and will be made up of teams from
business houses and factories
Arrangements will be made some
time this week for the care of women
who are interested in bowling, by
Manager Twigg. Two Of the six
alleys in the room are to be held open
for women bowlers at all times and
if enough interest is manifested in
the sport among the women of the
city, a Woman's league will be or
ganizea Special instructors will be
hired for women bowlers. Twigg an
nounced Monday he was planning to
hire two professional women bowlers
to act as instructors.
Further league plans and the ar
rang of schedules will be made
some time in the next two weeks, and
league bowling probably will begin
about the first of October.

ceived a number of inquiries concern
ing night school for this term. The
sessions last year were very success
full, about fifty students being en-
rolled, and quite a number are look
ing forward to the opening of the
term this year. Last year each stud
ent was obliged to pay his tuition ano
expenses himself but the work this
season will be carried on under diff
ferent plans as $1,000, set aside by
the last legislature, is available for
evening schools throughout the state,
and aside from this the costs of in
structors will be paid half by the
state and half by the community,
making the school public, open to
everybody over 16 years of age, and
in this way being a supplement of the
day school. Mr.. Berg belieces in Of
fering subjects according to the needs
of all students and not foreigners
only, providing a sufficient number
register for certain studies. The ideal
evening school term is from Novem-
Der until April and it is hoped that
steps will be taken to organize a
school this fall.
