bowlers and on that occasion the
fang were keenly disappointed.
Neither team performed up to
snuff.
This time, however, there is a
general feeling that the lnterclty
experts will do some real sharp
shooting. Phil Spine1la is quoted to
the effect that his men believe they
must beat an individual average OF
around 100 If they are to win.
The Brooklyn pin maulers have
kept tab on the general scores made
in Washington during the last
month and have seen nothing, ac-
cording to reports. TO give them
any great encouragement. Spinella's
stars have been in hard training for
several weeks.

the King Pins, who are lending
two of their men, Howard Campbell
