NEW HAVEN ROLLS AT TOLEDO

Toledo. O., March 27-Outside the money by more than 100 pins, New Haven's lone representative five did not fare as well it has in past blue ribbon events rolled in the American Bowling Congress here last night. The team totalled 2593 with Mort Lindsey the outstanding star by virtue of his 664 total. Palmer, a recruit on the team, could not see the wood at any stage of the series, averaging but 12S. He had 12 missed spares and four splits. Incidentally he found the pocket but three times in his trio of games. Sullivan, too, fell below the 500 mark for the three games but his bowling was far better than that flashed by Palmer.
 The big game of the New Haven team was it's second when 953 was registered. In this game Lindsey had his best count, 267, striking from the fourth frame. In putting these strikes over Lindsey has a great chance to cop the leadership in the all-events, needing 1245 in the doubles and singles to head the list. These events will be rolled tomorrow afternoon. Last nights total was the worst ever hung up by a New Haven team in American Bowling Congress com petition. Porto and Johnson rolled good after a disappointing start, the latter being the only bowler in addi- tion to Lindsey who hit the double ~ m Y-ly Nf1a

The writer, as secretary of the Connecticut State Football League has received the following complain from Manager Murray. of the Win chester team in reference to las weeks game. It reads as follows: Dear MT. Booth:
 Tn the interests of soccer foot ball and to avert any further in juries to players, I would ask you to communicate with the Bridge port Thistle secretary and request -, that their goalkeeper refrain from wearing knee pads of such 2. pattern as he wore on Sunday last versus the Winchester team. Ample evidence that they are dangerous things to wear was proven last Sunday, when A. Hamilton came in contact with the knee pads and Is now in bed suffering great pain, and in all probability will be incapacitated for the remainder of the sea son.
 If the knee pads must be worn by the player then am sure he could obtain others that would render just as much serv- ice and would be safer for the opposing players.
 Your attention and considera- ton will oblige,
 Yours in sport,
