The Washington times., 1924-05-02

The Masonic teams will constitute
the entire program tonight which
will be the only night in the tourna-
Ane9t during which no doubles or
singles will be rolled.
There are many stars among the
Masons and some of the tourna-
inent's best scores are expected.
Anthony Schumann, of the
Masonic, National Capital and In
tcrnal Revenue Leagues, is nOmi-
mated here for the title of Wash.
ingtOn's foremost strike bowler for
tire season of 1884.
This was suggested when Anthony
made doubleheader in the Wash.
Ington City Duckpin Associations
championships at the Grand Central
and earned himself an extra berry.
One goes with every doubleheader
made in the tournament; five for
every tripleheader. The city asso.
citation is not worrying over the
possibility of paying out many
liz es.
-. B. Amidon, of the Veterans
Bureau League, chiseled one loose
from the association roll and very
likely will retain the distinction of
being the only bowler to do it.
Getting back to Schumann, this
chap Is the strike champion of two
In. portant leagues and holds third
place in another. He dragged down
III st money in the National Capital
League with forty-seven strikes,
did the same in the Internal Rev.
-enue League with thirty-nine, and
was third in the Masonic Bowling
Appreciation with thirty-seven.
Altogether, he has made 1913
strikes in league competition this
seaSOn, ard il is doubtful If any
other bowler can say as much.
Despite his splendid record as a
striker, Schumann is not rated
among the leading stars. With an
average of about LOT he is ranked
Rs an excellent bowler, Of which
there are many more this season
than in any previous one.
change in his style made
Schumann a strike expert. Until
his season he rolled a cross-alley
curve, aimed at the right side Of
the headpin. Now he shoots a
fast ball with the semblance of a
hook at either side of the headpin.
Louie Brisker, shooting Class C
singles at the Kingpin in the Cap
ital City Association tournament,
gave an Interestingly inconsistent
performance. In his first game ne
rolled 80 flat. In the second he
made five marks, including Il
double-header strike, for a score of
1913. He got SO in the third with
two marks.
Another Kingpin contestant to
make dOubIe-header Eas E.
Clancy, who, incidentally blew a
fine chance to land among the
leaders in Class A singles. He
\ started with 1871, then got neat
4 1874. but his last effort was hOTTi-
BILE, score. SO.
