Earle Stocking, president OF the
association, said today: 1.-THE inter
est shown in the tournament. the
splendid condition of the alleys on
which it is to be rolled and the
big prize list likely will make 1t
the most successful tournament, IN
some respects, ever held by the
association. This, too, despite the
fact that the entry list Is shy
twenty-five teams of equaling the
record tournament Of 1929"
A most pleasing feature to the
bOwIers are the prize lists Of all

With these expenses deducted,
the association had q surplus with

Last year the Class A teams
shot at q first prize Of fifty bones.
This year first place will be worth
