One of the features of the tourna-
ment so far has been that out of the 500
bowlers, not one has besn able to break

The women's squad was hardly under
way when it was apparent that Mrs
Ackman and Helena Kohler would be
the pair to outstrip the field. Each
scored 1T in the first game. while the
others were tagging Mrs. Ackman I'M
proved while Miss Kohler stumbled in
the second game, the former scoring
129 against her rivals IS. The girls
were keeping tab on each othsr enter
ing the final string. it being obvious
that one or the other. or both, would
be high scorers in the tournament.
Miss Kohler put on a hot hand" and
rolled 100, for the high game in the
womsn'S section. and Mrs. AcSman
struggling against poor counts, got 80.
@. Feater started out with 1O6. and
then rolled three even so games. TO
show the boys that this wasn't his
speed, he wound up with l31 game.
His set was ATT.
Jimmy Jolliffe, in a fair way to win
the championship Of the big Federal
League, held his average with a 56S
set.
Jolliffe's captain internal Revenue
team. Earl Lewis, who beat 400 for
league set recently, totaled 462 in The
Stars tournament. His first four games
were under 100. His final was an even
100. If he had rolled 462 for three
games. it would have been less OF
Surprise than the 462 he rolled for five.
To put the right foot forward is proper
in most things, but in bowling it is de-
cidedly bad form. as rule. In the
case of George Honey it is effective.
Honey's right foot shoots out as he de-
livers the ball and he takes an odd hop
at the finsh His set last night was 565.
Red Morgan, this years leading bowl
er. with an average of 1913 in the Dis
trict League, struggled to get 349 In MS
first three games and then took SAD
flop. He got 73 in his fourth string
and 70 in the fifth for a grand total OF
4e4. He had an alibi In the third game
he developed a charleyhorse. Morgan
gave a beautiful exhibition in his first
three games, although his scores would
not indicate such. Many times what
appeared to be perfect hits resulted IN
exasperating splits. He hit everything
he shot at.
Red was keenly disappointed. having
of the big heap.
A. w. Saunders of the City Post Of
fee is the largest man In the tourna-
ment His exact dimensions couldn't De
learned, but he is so big he makes
duckpin balls appear like marbles. he
rolled 47S.
Gus Fredrichs, another Post Once
entrant, topped the first squad with 6lO,
and with any sort Of luck would have
done much better. Gus earned every
thing he got. He had 1893 going INTO the
fourth game, but couldn't hold the pace,
mainly because of diabolical sticks.
Rena Levy, who pounds out the tour
nanent scores for the newspapers, has
an idle moment between squads. BY
way of keeping Rena busy (by her own,
reouest) the queen of woman soutnpaW
bowlers was asked to type her opinion
as to which was the outstanding
feminine bowling team in washington.
Here il is: The great majority usually
rate an outstanding team on the merits
of its bowlers. so far as skill is con-
cerned. However, one of the most out
standing teams of either sex, in the city
is one that could not be rated truth
fully as such on their bowling aonlCy.
The Daughters of Isabella OF the WASH
ington Ladies' League. one OF the cnar-
ter teams, really deserves this tltle.
Never quite able to cope with the lead
ers. usually finishing around the mid
die, undaunted, each year they are one
of the first to enter when the league
assemblies. Every city tournament has
found them entered in fun strength;
and any match which their league may
hold, whether it be In Philadelphia or
Richmond, or their own town. and
whether or not they are participants,
finds them there with pep and enthusi-
asn1 to back up their representatives.
