FOR HEAVY COUNTS

SeaSon-GuIIi, Bradt in
Big Average Race.
BY r. J. ATKINSON.

SIDE from the heated race for
" individual bowling honors in
IN the Washington Ladies League,
the progress of several newcom-
ers to duckpin drives is being
watched with interest. Outstanding
among this latter group is Marguerite
Brunette, who joined the Comets thls
Fall, coming up from the Rebecca
League, where she had successful
season last year.
Pauline Ford, who forged to the front
last year by collecting most Of the indi-
vidual prize awards in the Ladies Fed
eral League, is also a newcomer to the
washington Ladies League and great
things are being predicted for her In
the near future. Although she has not

Helps Team Out of Cellar.
Mrs. Brunelle is rolling with team
which has won in but four of 18 starts.
Her consistent work has furnished the
advantage at crucial times. With the
aid of Louise Foberti and Mrs. Bru-
nellie. the Comets we're able to Vacate
the cellar berth this week.
Doris Goodall is somewhat OF puzzle
on the drives. Her bowling is senSa-
tional at times and at others she sui
fers a noticeable slump. She possesses
most of the natural requirements OF a
high scorer, exhibiting a good delivery
and an ability to remain cool at most
irving moments, but her scores fail to
show consistency Last Spring Mrs.
Goodall was the sensation among the
Glass c. bowlers in the washington
Wornen's Duckpin Association tourna-
nent. She has hopes of stepping into
a higher class before the present cam
paign ends.
Kumbacks had a prospective new
bowler at the start OF the season IN
Edna Waterman, who has remained out
of the lineup the past few weeks, much
fo the regret sof Billie williams, captain
of the team In the two sets which she
rolled Edna averaged better than >97
pins and Kunbacks were depending
upon her to aid them materially
throughout the campaign. They are
still hopeful that she will return to
action. 81

Lorraine GULL and Marjorie Bradt are
having a merry duel for high individual
laurels in the league. Marjorie suffered
a slump this week that permitted her
rival to assume undisputed possession
of high average henors Lorraine now
has a 105-11 average, which is Just
about the best any woman bowler pos
sesses in league competition this season
Marjorie, though, is likely to retain the
high game record for some tffne, as her
las game stands above all other single
counts to date, but Lorraine turned in a
347 count to tie Marjorie's high set
mark Of the week previous.
With Beeques now three games in
front in the league race, much of the
interest in the circuit is centered about
the individual performances of these.
