From sources close to gangland police

effect an armistice in the underworld

willing to make important concessions
to the Aieflo brothers, leaders Of the

power.
There was information. police said,
that Capone had called upon Johnny

years since he quit Chicago. but his In

MERCHANTS LEAGUE.
Team Standing.

Southern Diaries bowlerS launched
an attack against the leading Barber &
Ross crew last week In the Merchants
League, which subdued the first-place
team for two skirmishes and brought
them within a game of the top posi-
ton.
Charlie Douglas and McProuty were
the outstanding rollers for the winners,
the former Smacking the naples for
set of $50 and the latter registering a
Setsof 346. Southern Diaries team set
of 1907 and $50 game featured the
nights rolling. Houch shot 337 set
to top the Barber e. Ross team.
Hub Furniture team sprang the sur
prise of the week by defeating Stern
Co. three games. After grabbing a
close decision in the first they romped
home in the next two encounters. This
victory moved them up several notches
in the standing.
What's happened to Holmes Bakery?
Rated a contender earlier in the sea-
son they have Topped completely. At
wood and Rupprecht handed them a
whitewashing with, Vitale leading the
scoring with 32l set.
Groco turned in fine game of 555
to earn 2-1 decision over National
Biscuit Co. Skinless Franks, with Frank
Viehmeyer hitting the pins for 108, lit
and 12l, took Thompson's Dairy over

a
bryo duckpin stars looks
wv promising. More than one
comparative newcomer has
attracted unusual attention
this Fall. Two Of these new Satalites
are George Meyer, ace Of the Central
Armature team Of Electrical League,
and Lin Little Of Patent Attorneys In
Recreation League.
Meyers rise from dub ranks Is Moth
ing short of sensational. Last season
was his first in organized ranks. He
did nothing to attract wide attention.
but this year he is making bid for
the leagues high average honors, and
at present tops the list with q mark
slightly better than ITO.
His work on the drives Is steady.
No sensational game and set counts are
chalked to his credit. but his ability to
topple pins with regularity is big help
in keeping his team in third place, just
two games behind the leading Pepco
quint. His steady shooting was a big
factor in enabling his team to record
team high game and set marks at SAT
and 1879.
Team captains of National Capital
and Athletic Club Leagues already have
their eyes on this youngster in his Sec
ond campaign of organized competition.
The alley sharps at Convention Hall
are predicting big things for him with
in a few seasons.
Steps Into Prominence.
Little stepped into prominence last
week by rolling a 412 set in Recreation
League for Patent Attorneys team. Al
though not as young as Meyer, he is a
comparative newcomer to the game.
and his rise to prominence Is as SEN
sational in duckpin circles.
His big accomplishment has stamp
ed him as a coming star. His 146, l28
and 1873 games fell one pin short OF
reaching the highest mark recorded in
league ranks this season. Brad Mand-
ley's 413 set in National Capital League
is the only set score to top Llttles
effort.
Paul and Joe Harrison have already
won their way into select circles, but
bowling Solons are predicting even
higher realms for them. Paul rolled
the highest league set III the District
last year, leaving a 434 mark on the
records of Electrical League. He Is
having another big season in District
League and his work combined with
that of Make Rosenberg in District
Doubles League has been Of the high
est order. Joe has not reached the
heights that his brother has attained,
but he Is rated one of the best pros
poets among the younger stars.
Another WOIstenhoIme.
Jack Wolstenholme, another Of the
young stars, has demonstrated that the
family name will retain its place in
duckpin classics after Glenn's powerful
arm begins to falter. Stepping into the
gap left vacant by Reds Megaw's re-
moval to Richmond, the younger VOL
stenholme has left little to be desired
in filling the gap in the Convention
Hall team. His ia average in District
League attests to the fact that he has
already entered the select circle.
A list of promising young stars would
not be complete without mention Of
Charley Lyons, who has won reputa-
ton as being one of the most accurate
performers on local alleys. His chief
difficulty has been overcoming mental
hazards. and once he overcomes this
fault his name will be written on the
big ten scroll

TVER hear OF a man sunermg ana
= Harry D. eastman likes so
IL well to suffer that not only does
he suffer with good grace, but
he comes back for more two or tnree
times week at washington Con- ano
Country Club. He has invented new
name for golf. He now calls it the
'suffering game" but strangely enough,
even though he admits he goes through
mental torture every time he plays, as
CIV Cummings would say, he "revels IN
the going" In other words ne likes
to suffer.
eastman has had, for the past three
months, q streak Of looking up. IL
seems that no matter what his determi-
nation to keep his head down and his
eve on the ball, that head will come
up lust a fraction Of second before
the ball Is Struck-that all important
fractional part of a second which goes
a long way to determine whether the
shot comes of. So with the double
purpose Of keeping his head down and
saving wooden tees-for Harry has
bit of Scotch in him--he has tied to-
gether a pair Of wooden tees with a
piece of rope strong enough to hitch
horse. He has theory that the
white twine may help him to keep his
head down, and certainly it prevents
him from losing tees. For how could
any one miss finding heavy piece of
twine on the limited precincts Of a tee.
These days, while eastman suffers
land he admits golf Is game OF suffer-
ing) he comes into the grill room at
washington with a greeting something
like this: "Well, boys, who is going
to suffer with me today. Logan. do
YOU want to watch the patient slowly
expire, or would you rather have me
draw out my illness. I'll suffer any,
way"
And then he goes out to the first
tee. He probably plays the first two
or three holes well, and then the "look-
ing up" process begins again. So il
goes this way. with eastman talking

NEWS AND GOSSIP ABOUT BOWLERS

If you remember when the District

mans alleys, located on the site now
occupied by the Hearst Building, you
probably remember the famous JED
duckpin team, which copped, the league
and city title that year. II you remem-
Der the Jeds you probably remember
that Jack Lovelace was one OF the Dig
stars of that squad.
Jack has not lost any of his old bowl
ing skill He is not rated as high as
he was in those days, partly because
averages and scores have mounted con-
siderably since those days. His 38S set
in Electrical League, which Is the pest
rolled to date in that circuit, Will con-
vince the majority that the former Jed
ace is still a star in his own league.
Officials of the new Women's Doubles
League are scratching their heads these
days in an effort to unearth some
means of injecting interest in the new
circuit. At present there are prospects
of eight teams meeting Saturday night,
but the organizers hope to lineup at
