1t is probable that the small pin
game was introduced in Washing
ton some time during the latter
part of the 1903 or beginning OF
the 1904 season for the very reason
that there was no regularly or
ganized league in the field during
the 19C4.05 season, although matches
without number were being rolled
between independent teams during
the winter and spring months OF
1905.
Some Of the independent
clubs, of the winter of 1904.O5,
were the Eurekas, TOledOs,
