The Illinois $50 doubles sweep
stakes drew a wonderful entry of
eighty eight teams during Sundays
play. Each shift was filled and the
waiting list was large throughout
the afternoon. Herman Bohne and
RussoW, rolling on the 1880 p. m.
shift, copied first money with a fine
total Of 1,245. Bohne was hot" in
this set, getting total of Sos for
his share. RuSSow backed him up
with nice series of $50. Charlie
Oeftering had his strike ball work.
ing in great style mad carried his
partner, w. Hohlt, to second place
with 1899. Other teams to reach
the prize list we're: Burt and Pen
dergast, 1,188; Robishaw and Mills,
1,108; Afford and Cox, 1,187; Dur
bin and Goodhue, 1,185, and the
Landis-Kimble team, f,181. Harry
Kries poured in a count of 268 in
his last game, paired with Meeker,
and Grew the high single game
prize. The high team game prize
went to. Afford and Cox, with 467 in
their last try. Afford turned in the
best total of the day with 674. "Hod"
Eller, the "runnin'" cop, tossed a
wicked pill and dropped a total of
668 for his share with Carl Engel-
king. Every squad started on time
and everything was run in good or
der, the pins and alleys being in fine
shape.
AS predicted in this column, the
Crystal Pep Gas and Noblesville Elk
match at the Capitol Alleys was a
hard-fought, exciting battle. The
Crystal Pep boys won by margin
Of two pins over the three-game
route. The Six-game total gave
Noblesville the edge as these boys
won at NobleSville by 80 pins.
Matches of this nature are very in
teresting to the rail-birds and a
large crowd witnessed this en-
counter.
The Petot Shoe team is leading
the fast Merchants Central circuit

lead among the individuals with an
average of 1873.

Dear Olrs
Since had some small part in award
ing the coming tournament Of the Indi-
ana Bowling Association to the Jesse
Pritchett Recreation Alleys, am going to
answer Mr.. Dean Barrett's question in
The Times OF Saturday.
It Is not my desire to enter into any
controversy with any misguided individual,
who admits that the organization he
honors by being It's president. does not
belong or never will belong to the Indi-
annapolis Bowling Association.
BY such an admission, how can he or
the organization that he represents, right
fully critise the indianapolis Bowling As
ISOLATION for its action any more than
he could rightfully criticise any Of the
luncheon clubs for their actions. In the
first place, neither this man nor any mem
Der of his league could participate in any
tournament unless he was a member of
the Indianapolis Bowling Association.
To continue, the bowlers themselves did
not want to entertain the Indiana State
Bowling Association this year. We were
CT the opinion that this tournament should
have been awarded to Terre Haute. 1t
was the invitation of an alley manager,
who incidentally has no voice in or can
not become a member of the Indianapolis
Bowling Association. that influenced the
delegates at the annual meeting of the
Indiana Bowling Association to award the
| tournament to Indianapolis.

INDIANA and Purdue hoped off
L on the right foot Saturday in the
race for the Western Conference
cage title and as a result both Hoo
Sier teams share in a five-way tie
for first place after the initial en-
gagements of the campaign. 1T al
most is an assured fact that the tie
for the e-making berth soon will
be whitfield down to reasonable
size. The nine weeks struggle for
Big Ten honors is bound to bring
out some excellent basketball, me-
diocre court performing and even
terrible playing, but when all is
said and done the. champion, or
champions, will have deserved the
honors and every one will be salts
fied-except the losers. Which is
only natural.
Our gueSSes on the five Confer
ence battles turned out not so good
and of our five selections, two were
wrong. Northwestern's defeat CT
Michigan and Minnesota's triumph
over Iowa left us with batting av-
erage of 800.

Tonight Northwestern will be at
lowe and Michigan at wisconsin.

Wolverines. Just one guess after

THE LAST GESTURE

Nothing offers more conclusive proof of the con-
tempt which gangsers have for the law than the prac
tlce of mortally wounded gang members refusing to
dlvu!ge any information about their assailants
The latest Chicago Staying tells of gangster lin
gerlng two days in hospital following his shooting
before death put end to his career. Although he
suffered intensely word escaped his lips that might
give the police a clew on which to work.
Contrary to the belief held by some that this is
gameness, it is simply gangland's way of saying to
the law, Keep out, will attend to this ourselves
Gangsters defy the law whether they be living wound
ed or dead. The wounded gangster keeps silent not
that he does not want to have his assaants punished
for he does, but he wants them punished by his own
and not by the law.
1t is the last gesture of contempt he can make
toward the law which he has scorned while alive, and
it accords him distorted of satisfaction to know
that even to the end he is still antagonisc the
enemy.
In passing attention might be called to the fact
that this particular gangster from Italy seven
years ago. made citizen of the United States two
years ago, and on his person when shot down was a
bank book showing deposit of S25 900 that day.
