began to develop the game that was to
amaze the whole golfing world.
Years later. when she was a young
woman, Brown played her, and gave
her half stroke a hole handicap;
that is, stroke every other hole.
One day, on the 160yard blind sixth
hole. Miss Leitch made corking shot
over the hill. She ran eagerly up TO
an old stump. which formed a marker
at the crest, and saw that her ball lay
only few inches from the cup.
You needn't play, Brown she
cried. IT'S my hole"

her handicap, she halved the hole.

Congress is not only a reality
but has already begun to func
/ Y tion effectively, organizing the
sport in the South, in addition
to bringing together the biggest duck
pin centers In the East.
George l.. Isemann, secretary Of the
congress, has just returned from High
Point, n. c.. where he participated In
the opening of the first big bowling
center i'm that State. City officials,
presidents of the Rotary and Kiwanfs
Clubs and Secretary lsemann were
the principal speakers. A number of
bowlers joined the national body and
promised to compete in the first tour
nament to be held next Spring.
Interest in the association has heen
manifested in all of the cities wnere
the small-pin game predominates.
Boston, Brooklyn, New York, Balti-
more and Washington will have the
most members, while loca. entries are
expected to outnumber all others.
]. l.. Dobbs, an enthusiastic bowler
and we'll known business man of High
Point, has been elected third vice
president of the association.
Officials of the association are con-
centrating most of their efforts toward
making the initial tournament a huge
success. 1t is probable that this nam.
moth affair will be held in Baltimore
instead of Washington, as it Is thought
that 1t would be more beneficial to the
organization to hold 1t where the most
good can be accomplished.
