John S. Blick, who conducts three OF
the largest duekpin plants here and has
long been associated with the bowling
game, will be offered the presidency Of
the loop. All doubles teams interested
are asked to have representatives
present. .....
All matches will be rolled on Satur-
day, according to plans at present. AS
few leagues roll on Saturday night at
present, matches of the doubles league
would attract large galleries, it is
thought. It is also planned to offer
attractive prizes for individual and
team record performances.
Probably the best equipped alleys for
tournament bowling are now located at
the Arcadia. A large balcony, which
surrounds two sides Of the auditorium, Is
SUFFICIENT to scat more than 1000 spec
tators without interference to the
bowlers.
Another attractive feature that aids
in making the Arcadia popular is the
large parking space provided on the
rccf. Bowlers, who formerly found 1t
difficult to find parking space in the
Columbia Heights section. can now
drive their machines thru the entrance
on Hiatt place onto the roof.
