In the race just ended, the La
1ayette bowlers made up for what
they missed a year ago. Besides
taking the flag they grabbed high
set honors with 1896: the second
high game, COG (St. Johns setting
the record with 627); and one of
its members, Glenn Wolstenholme,
won the individual championship
with an average Of 111-45 for sixty
four games.
The most graceful bowler in
Washington "a common descrip-
ton of WOlStenhOlme), barely beat
out Simmons, of Mt. Pleasant
who shot for an average OF
lila for Seventy-tWO strings.
Wolstenholme complemented his
victory by achieving the high set,
S94. Webb, of Washington-Cen'
tennial, shot the record game. 1853.
Litzau, of Acacia, and oliver, OF
Joppa, did more than passingly well
with 1874 each.
Harold Supplee, of Harmony
Lodge, and Arthur Urban, of Lafay-
cite, had it out for third high av-
erage, Supplee winning with 1929
for fifty-four games, against 1927
for seventy-two games. 1reful Ar
thur did considerably better in cap
turing the championship last season.
Another interesting contest was
waged for fifth place, with Bill
1nge, of Lafayette, nosing out Earl
Lewis, Of Stansbury, by 10S-64 for
seventy games against 1OS-S1 Tor
0ixty-seven.

1t never fails-before election

goods acrost the nation, and
lands 'em, double-quick.
It's fun to hear some jobless
critter explainin' how it's vastly
better to float 'em down the

steamboats, tootin' and watch
EN-, splutterjn' and rootin'
among the snags and bars.
He wants to see the palace
lioatin'-and tells as, if vie'll do
the yotin' he'll junk the rail
road kyars. 1t used TO set
my hopes afre TO listen at the
campaign liar discourse on
"water-ways"; I've helped elect
