A bowling match comedy was put
on last night when the Linotypers
and the Foundrymen met on the
Grand Central alleys. The printers
easily demonstrated their superior
ability to leave pins standing by
upsetting III pins under the total of
their opponents. Bill Dawson threw
a charley horse with his second ball
and retired in favor of Beaubiah.
The lineup of the Foundrymen was:
Brown. Carey. Cavey. Addison and
NcCauley; Linotypers: Wallace,
Hartung, Beaubiah, Coakley and
Walker. Total pins: Linotypers.
$50; Foundrymen. 1881. The bindery
team, under the leadership OF Otto
, Herman. can now take on Carey's
bowlers and treat them even worse
than the printers did.
The average pins for the Foundry
men was 81 pins; Linotypers, 81.
