The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1924-05-01

Duckpin Association tournaments
going full, blast, Washington is
! plentifully supplied with compett-
{. tive bowling.
Il. b. AmidOn, Of the Account
:. ing Division team, Veterans Blu
- reau League, is the limehght
= bowler today. He performed the
rare feat of making three consec-
utive strikes in the Washington
City tournament at the Grand
;. Central.
AS a result, Amidon is five bucks
:, weather. today than he would have
been,. for such is the prize for
triple-headers in the tournament.
: One berry is awarded for each
: double header.
. Amidon got strikes in his sew
, enth, eighth and ninth boxes. In
the tenth he missed a fourth strike
when No. pin, directly in back
Of the headpin, failed to fall after
perfect pocket hit.
Triple-headers have been few and
far between in the tournament.
J. w. Dudley, a Glass c bowler,
got one in the tournament year
ago.
Earl McPhilomy and Roscoe Rel!
chard are paired in the doubles at
the Grand Central. Earl is present
champion Of the District League
and Roscoe a former champion Of
Washington's strongest duckpin
loop.
They make a crack doubles
team, but no better than the one
composed Of McPhilomy and Joe
!" MuIrOe, that will shoot in the
$ Kingpin tournament. At the
Grand Central, MulrOe is paired
with Max Rosenberg, who at this
9 time is going great. With the
- Terminal Ice Company team, IN
it's ten-game series with the Baltl-
more Stars, recently ended, ROsen-
berg averaged 1873.
Instead of losing to Baltimore by
. 20 pins, as It was reported by error,
the Terminal bowlers won by Az
: pins, giving them a margin Of 141
naples for the series. Washington
: has crushed Baltimore this season,
! winning every irtercity match de-
cisively.
There have been no conflicting
? dates in the two tournaments, hence
both are running smoothly.
~ Ever since L. S. Brown wrote his
name on the roll of fame with a
record 4S5 set in the Masonic tour.
nament, he has been a bowling at
traction, although never having dis
tinguished himself before. Tonight
q the Washington Centennial Lodge
: star and his teammate, w. M. Webb,
will shoot doubles at the Grand
Central.
* Every team in the Southern Rail-
way League, ten, are on the Grand
; Central card tonight.
q Observers at the Grand Central
spares are being missed. Sounds
familiar. Oh, yes, it's one of those
6 stock, remarks made about every
/, tournament!
>. The number of teams in each
q tournament is exactly the same
124. il
