pins at the Coliseum last night
IN thrce-game District League
4 match in which his Stanford
Paper Co. team won two vic
tories over COrnells Lunch. 1t was
a sensational set for Tom. as 400 and
better sets have not been SO numerous
with him. but, strange as it may seem.
a 3l3 set by Bradley Mandley in the
same match AFFECTED 'more attention
than that 404 So.
They are watching Mandley. The
Stanford anchor has just about monop-
olized the spotlight among the male
stars todate. and all he has to do Is
hold his own TO gain once more the
No ! ranking position in the District.
That is why that 313 set caused so
much comment among the bowling bugs
on hand,
1t was the worst set Mandley has
turned in this season on the Coliseum
alleys, which are his fovarite drives BY
Slumping he dropped AZ pins, reducing
his average TO 1904. but this figure still
is sufficient to hold the individual LEAD
in the District League, and TO hold that
honor almost assures the No. l ranking
berth
In the two years the Washington City
Duckpin Association has been ranking
the stars. the high average man OF
the District League has been given
top place. 1t is pretty safe to pick the
high average man of this open circuit
league BY maintaining his record
breaking pace Mandley may be the
first local bowler to be ranked No.
on two occasions.
Walkers 404 set last night was an exhi-
bition of consistent shooting. His games
were 1877 l4l and l26. He had no dou-
ble-header strikes, getting but two
strikes and IA spares.
Inability to sign players after the
final series is under way Is costing
Northeast Temple team heavily In the
District League. The NortheasternerS
have been hard hit by sickness since
the series opened. having forfeited to
Petworth last week. and it Is probable
that the King Pin will profit by another
Temple forfeiture tonight.
BY piIing up 627 pins at King Pin
last night, Johnny Baum of The Star
defending champion assured every one
that he will battle to the end In de-
Tense of newspaper mems duckpin title.
His mark was the most sensational to
date in the newspaper mems elimina-
ton tournament, which continues We'd
neSday night and throughout the next
few weeks.
Chick Darnell of the Post broke Dave
McCarty's high set in the afternoon
with a 594 total and Phil Heffelinger
of The Star pushed Baum last night
with 594 string. F.. B. Carman, also
of The Star, was fourth In the cham
pionShip field with STA count
Top honors in the consolation flight
went to Ray Jergens, who finished with
538. Eugene Farlee of the Bulletin was
second with 523 and r. w. Downs of
til United States Daily trailed third
with $40.
Examinations for the first round will
not be completed until tomorrow night,
when 80 more contestants, the majority
of whom are in the championship
flight, will attempt to remain in the
battle. Rolling will start at 8 o'clock
tomorrow night.
Arcadia tam recorded a new Ladies'
District League game record last night
with SAT count in the second tilt with
its old rival, Meyer Davis. Billie But
ler's 1872 count in this game swelled the
total. as Owens hit lot, Amidon COL
1ected 101, Fischer got lot and GULL
rolled ITO. Bradt, with $50, and Frere,
with 32l, set the pace for Meyer Davis.
Leo RinaIdi and George Dracapoulos
call attention to an error in tabulation
of the final block of the Italian Ameri
can and Greek-American pin match at
Arcadia Saturday night. Rinaldi's crew
won the final block. 2.767 TO 2,744, but
dropped the match 5.444 TO $40. Only
strong finish by the Greeks in the
nnal two games got them the verdict.
