The finals at the West End did not
bring out as many men as expected
and those who attended, except In the
case OF Brockwell and Hart, failed TO
shoot UP to form. Brockwelfs shoot
ing was feature and Hart. who is
one of the steadiest men in the club,
gave a good account of himself by
carrying off three beautiful silver low

target shooting at the West End until
next April. Between now and then
the West Enders will not see much
of each other and when they do meet
again each man is likely to have many
interesting hunting experiences to tell.
Nearly all of the Southern trap shoot
ing clubs have closed. while up North
where the field shooting is poor, many
OF the trap shooting clubs have just
started their seasons.

their hopes at defeating Warner nse,
on the development OF ofyense during
the two weeks that intervene now
until the championship clash Mt Pitts

All doubt as to the ability OF Wash
ington and Jefferson to cope with a
powerful antagonist on the defense
was dissipated in the Penn State clash
OF last Saturday. when the Red and
Black stood up and kept the Penn
state eleven outside its 4o-yard zone
through an hour OF play, This was
done to a team which leads the coun-
try in scoring and which had piled
up i7s points in two consecutive
games. Whether it may be argued
that States attack was weak or not,
supporters OF Washington and JET
ferson claim that any team that can
score as frequently as Hafiowas men
did prior to their coming here. must
have lot OF drive and they are
pleased with the way Washington and
Jefferson withstood this offensive.

ALONG M4PLEP
LANE
BY ED

The Palace Duckpin league finished
Its second week very satisfactorily.
and Manager Jake" Rowsey is very
gratifed at the interest shown among
the small pin rollers. However even
the most carefully laid plans some
times go astray. and In this case. the
hardness in the formulation of the
rules has led TO some little dissen-
sion among the members of the clubs
when technical points came up. This
was especially In evidence last We'd
nesday night when several discussions
arose over the decisions of the UNI
pire at the foul line, and again on
Friday night when the question of
whether one team could sign a new
player without asking waivers from
the other clubs of the organization.
In view of the above, Manager
| Rowsey is now at work preparing a
set Of rules. in full accordance with
the National Bowling tournament
laws, which will be offered at a called
meeting of every member in the
league. to be held some time in the
near future. for their< approval. At
ter the rules have been adopted, they
will be printed, and a copy put into
the hands of everyone interested. In
this way IL is hoped that future trou-
BILE will be avoided. Jake" is also
busy on the schedule which will be
released In few days.
On account of Wednesday night be-
ing Halloween, the games scheduled
for that night will be transferred to
the preceding Tuesday The Cubs and
Giants will oppose each other on this
night. Friday the Indians tackle the
well-known Tigers and good tussie
is expected.
The six club tenpin league is now
rapidly rounding into organization.
The Alcos and Duplex have already
completed their lineup and have
handed same to Manager Rowsey.
The two Rotary club teams have not
decided definitely in regard to this,
while the Palace and the Weisberger
teams are also uncertain as to its
| final members. Peggy Butler of the
Alcos. predicts a winning team In the
| latter. The entire ffne-up OF all six
clubs will be published as soon as it
! is completely arranged, with full in
1 formation as to what nights the teams
will meet and the schedule.
