Washington City Duckpin Associations
eighteenth annual tournament was dis
posed of without any sensational scores
being produced
Officials of the association and bowl
ers in general are predicting better
scores in the remaining events, although
little improvement was noted as the
tourney progressed during the past
week
Hooks that produced mark after mark
during the long season failed TO break
effectively at King Pin during the past
week Strikes and spares did not pro-
duce the usual counts. Double marks
were exceptions and triple were
unheard of. despite the fact that many
class A bowlers got into action.
Some Of the old-timers expect better
counts as the alleys lose some of their
kcenness. but the first week failed to
SLOW up" the drives to any noticeable
extent.
Dave Cox Shows Form.
Dave Cox. who is secretary Of Rec
reation League, in addition to flashing
on the alleys at times. made the most
impressive showing OF the initial week
Had he maintained the same pace in his
doubles that he did in team and singles
games there is little doubt that new
all-events record would have been es-
tablished The nine-game stretch in
one night proved too much. however.
and he weakened in the last three
games. Time after time his marks
produced but two and three pins.
All-time marks were not seriously
threatened. Class d bowlers are having
merry battle to take the lead in that
class. as the records made in this new
class this year will go in the book as
all-time records to be shot at in future
tournaments.
An unusual number Of team postpone
ments have been made this year. The
usual number of individual postpone
monts have been granted All OF these
will be disposed Of on the final night of
the tournament which has been set
aside for that purpose.
