MiddleWest Tournament Notes

So This seasons entry will possibly
not include the fast Sioux Falls
team, which has always participated
in former meets. The bowlers up
there have been without alleys, not
because of lack of interest in the
game, but because of the alleyman's
inability to renew his lease. There
is Sc much enthusiasm up there
that the pin artists may enter the
tournament even without their us
ual early season practice.
All late entrants asking for that
old favorite date, the last Saturday
and Sunday, will be out of luck.
Already these dates are filled and
have been for some time. There
are still several Friday and Satur-
day dates, or Sunday and Monday
dates.
The Omaha alleys will be entirely
refinished just prior to the open
ing of the tournament. Conditions
for a tournament of this kind must
be as close to perfection as possible.
The six teams entered from St.
Louis last week were the Wooster
Lamberts, Sweeney's Specials, Swee-
ney's Tigers, Missouri Pacific No. |,
Missouri Pacific No. 2, and the H..
c. Hennes, the latter team entered
by the associations president, who
resides there. All will roll on the
opening, Saturday and Sunday. The
annual meeting of the association
will be held on the opening Sunday
The large number of St. Louis roll
ers appearing on the schedule that
day is an indication that st. Louis is
hard after next seasons tournament.
They tried to get it away from
Omaha this season, but the local
rollers rallied sufficient power to
swing it to the Gate City.
The two latest teams from St. Joe
to enter are the Cobb Show COM

Captain Usher Stars
In Idlewild's Victory
In Preseason League

Scoring total Of 81 points in the
three games that he participated 10
last night, Capt. Billy Usher Of tn.
Glendales, who are tied for second
place with the Monmouth Parks in
the basket ball championship race of
the preseason league, broke all ree4
ords for individual scoring and also
for total scores of the season.
Playing left forward in each Of
the games. Usher made 10 Of the Is
points for his team against the I'm
ion Squares. the final score being Is
to 8. In the game with the Kirk
woods, leaders of the league. Usher
made but six points, while Captain
Brown of the Kirkwoods had the
honor of making IA points out Of the
"a scored by his team against the
Bemis Parks two The kirkwoods
outclassed their opponents in every
department of the game, and had
them shut out with but few min
utes to 20 when Lundgren, center,
shot a goal on a dead run.
The Idlewild's victory over the
Fontenclles goes mainly to Billy
Usher, for it was in this game that
he broke the individual record for
scores when he shot 10 field goals
and one foul goal, for Fl points. Had
Usher not been playing, the result
probably would have been reversed,
as Livinson, also forward. was the
only other man for the 1dlewilds to
score, shooting two goals for four
points. The Idlewilds won by Is
to 8 score. Barney Nordstrom played
the stellar game for the Fontenelles.
The Norwoods scored another vic
tory by defeating the Morningside
quintet by the one-sided score Of 10
to 7. ,-....
Following the cage contests, which
was attended by large crowd, conf
posed mainly of lady friends of the
players, an entertainment was fur
nished. shments, consisting
of coffee and daughnuts, were served.

pany and St. Joseph Buggy conf
pany.
Eight alleys will be used this year
to accommodate the big entry. The
alleys will be paired off, 2 and 3.
and 5, 6 and ?, 8 and 9. This is the
first tournament ever held by the
association where the layout didn't
have one or more pairs of split al.
leys. That means that every pail
of alleys a team or individual rolls
on will not be split with a post OF
return chute between them. Grand
stands will be constructed over al,
leys l to 10.
Bill Learn has secured the check
room again, with the old $3.50
cry. He handled it very efficiently
during the last tournament held
here, so we can expect the same
satisfaction this time. A good
checking system makes a hit with
visiting bowlers and contributes in
no small degree to the successful
handling of the event,

Local Bowling Notes.

Nose Yousem is back in the game
with the same old pep and enthu-
slasm. Not quite as strong a roller
as he was back in 1928 when he
was able to take 'em all on.
Gus Toman will roll with the
Stock Yards National Banks in the
Magic City league. The bankers
are in last place, but with the addi-
ton of this fast pingetter, they
should start up the ladder.
The steyer Candy Co. team has
been strengthened by the addition
of Jimmy Coleman to their lineup.
Atkinson, the Orchard and VIII
helm star, was high roller for the
special prize on the Farnam alleys
last month. With his score of 26o
he is handed a fine Stetson hat by
the Washington Shirt Co. This
prize is given every month to the
bowler rolling high individual game
on the Farnam alleys.
George Lowe, ex-secretary Of the
association, has sent in two more
entries from Kansas City. One will
be labeled Lowe and Campbell; the
other has not disclosed its identity.
The usual Mason City, Ia, entry
has not arrived yet. They have al
ways attended with a strong club.
All the Omaha alley houses should
be represented with teams bearing
the. house name. The Omaha and
Farnam alley entries have already
been received.

with the anchor position of the
City Hall crew and holding it down
admirably.
Where they all are-Marcus Fire

There need be but little trouble
in figuring out your income tax.
says Chickasha man, who sug.
gests the following method:
In the first place it may be
worked out by algebra, astronomy,
trigoncmetry and syntax and then
your answer may be correct and it
may not. If your income is $2,400
a year and you have a diamond ring,
and an automobile, and are married
ITO brunette girl 26 years old, you
take the amount of your income and
add your personal property sub
tract your street number, multiply
by your wifes height and divide
by your telephone number. II you
have a child in the family, you sub
tract 5000 from your income, add the
amount of your personal properly,
multiply by your waist measure,
subtract the size Of your collar and
your child's age, multiply by the
amount you have given the church
during the year, and divide by the
Of your automobile license
tag. If there is second child you
deduct 10000 from your income.
add the weight and age of each
child, divide by the date of your
birth, multiply by the size of your
hat, and subtract by the weight of
your mother-inlaw. After you get
it all figured out you won't have to
pay any taxes of any name or ma
ture, for they will have you in the
