A great number of the bowlers in
this curcuit apparently were affected
by the two-week holiday interval in
the schedule. and as a result averages
suffered somewhat when hostilities
were resumed Tuesday night.
This does not apply to all, however,
as there were a few who turned in
sets god enough to increase their
standing.

with high game of 1874, and brought
her average Just over the los mark.
Catherine Quigley Of the Beeques add
ed a few pins to her average when
she toppled the pins for the neat
count of 316, while her teammate,

set Of 305.
Catherine Moriarty of the Daughters
of Isabella has shown marked inn
provement in her bowling in recent
matches. and got her best game and
set of the season Tuesday night with
counts of 1U9 and 307 respectively.
Kitty Klein of the Columbians boosted
her average with a three game string
Of 3O2.

Interstate Commerce, game of LOT and

Riggs now is only four games behind
the leaders. with Hibbs two games
farther away. Both of these teams
expect to make things uncomfortable
for the leaders during the second
series, which has just started.
Riggs is pleased that Kay Brooks,
who was one of the aces of the old
American Security championship
team, is eligible to roll with it. This
will add to the Riggs team a man who
is expected to finish the season with
at least an average of 106.
Hibbs also is feeling confident as its
anchor man, Abe Clark, has again
started spilling the pins. This all

While the Washington City Duckpin
Association stands prepared to do
everything possible to further the

any move without the sanction of the
bowlers themselves. The Washington
City Duckpin Association is not out

association had held sway over the

were inclined to be too arbitrary. But

citation as now constituted is prac-
tically a new body. Its officers are
new. its directorate is new, its head
quarters are new and any policy it
may adopt will be new
AS now organized the Washington
City Duckpin Association has no AK

and no vengeance to wreak. 1t starts

slogan is:
