Between Strikes


We are mighty glad to see you. Stay
with us-watch your averages grow.
You are mighty welcome.
Having transferred their activities
from the ayr alleys to the Twigg
bowling alleys, where it is possible
for tie entire league, consisting of six
teams, to roll off their disputes in one
evening, the A. S. NJ Family League"
proceeded to make themselves feel at
home last evening. Interest was at
the highest pitch-each team having
it's full quota of men on hand, and
although no high score records were
broken, the scores rolled may we'll be
proud of.
It's the spirit shown among these
A. S. M. boys which is the bright light
of their league. They are just big;
bunch of good-natured sports, each
pulling for the other, with that strong
thread of loyalty to the league, of CO.
operation with each other, woven
through all their athletic activities.
That's the spirit, and the only spirit.
which will strengthen the bond Of
good fellowship and place A. S. M.
league on the highest level of sports
manship.
In last nights arguments Recess
Kentucky five took Shorty Owens
Jumbos into camp with the better
two of three. Ernie Ways Easy Pulls
found Knights Hoosiers to be an easy
pull, annexing two out of the three
games, and Walter Boyce's Empires
galloped home with the two big ones,
leaving Charley Way and his Light
Draft clan to be content with one lone
game.
1t was mighty gratifying to step into
the alleys last night and see thiS
bunch of pin smashers at work. There

them, but among them too, were some
very familiar faces: Buck Muhl, Fid
die Rothert, Ike Epping, Johnnie
Knight, Harry Haner, Walter Boyce,
Shorty" Owens, and others all get
ting their share of the wood. And
you new bowlers, let's get acquainted
Come around often and get some prac-
tice. Please don't. feel that you are
mot good enough every bowler
started at the bottom. High scores
and high averages are the logical re
suits of tenacious practice. Let's run
our names up this Average Ladder

This man Sample, (sorry we DOM
! know him better) sure enjoyed him
self last evening, and gave a pretty
exhibition of consistent rolling, piline
up an average of 181 for the three
games, with 1876 as his high score
Keep it up old man.
Due to split thumb, knight was
somewhat handicapped last night
which partly accounts for his fallins

The City League again opens up it
