So far the Veterans Bureau has
been the only organization to send IN
it's list, but it is so large as to give
an Indication that other leagues VIII
have a majority Of their bowlers in
the big event.
Tuesday night the Masonic League
will hold its annual meeting, at which
officers will be elected and decision
reached as to how many lodges Will

Ave lodges will be represented by
teams and individuals, and the num-
Der may go up to thirty Other fra
ternal circuits have assured Stocking
that they Will have good sized dele

While the closing day for the en-
tries has been placed at April IA, it is
very probable that the date Will be
extended couple of days. as there will
be a great deal more money in cir
cuIation after the 10Th.

week by the King Pins and Royals
made their friends open their eyes
and wonder why they didn't get
out of three from the Terminal Ice
Thursday night by the King Pins
was something of a feat. At the OPEN
ing of the season the King Pins cut
quite a swath in the District League,
then shaded off around the holidays
and dropped back out of the running.
In trimming the Goodfellows three
straight the Royals did not perform
the wonderful, but their scores were
somewhat sensational and probably
league.
