TWO RECORDS SET
BY YOUNG WIZARD
Game of 1877 as Well as Set
of TIA Believed High
for InterCity Play.
BY r. D. THOMAS.

A LOT of handshakes and slaps
~ on the back were in order
~ for young Paul Harrison today.
The bowling frat was abuzz
with the Grand Palace Valetman's per-
Torrance against the Connecticut ALL
Stars at Hartford Saturday night, in
which he broke two intercity records.
His set of TIA bettered by pins the
previous mark established by Barney
Spinella of Brooklyn against Convention
Hall, and his best game of 1877 beat
Spinella's other record made here by
Z sticks.
1t may be taking chance to say that
Harrison's 1877 is a national record, but
there is no doubt of its being the highest
ever rolled by a Washington bowler in
intercity play.
Shoots in Star Tourney.
Harrison will be the outstanding fig
ures when the return engagement with
the New Englanders is staged next
Saturday at the Coliseum. His next
championship appearance, however, will
be when The Evening Stars singles
night at Convention Hail.
In the meantime bowlers in general
will turn attention to other holiday
season events. Tonight the annual hus-
band-and-Wife tournament, sponsored
by John S. Blick, will open at the
Arcadia and will be finished tomorrow
night, total pins for six games to de-
termine the winners.

Another attraction tonight will be the
semi-finals Of the King Pin elimination
tournament. j. C. Shackleford, Harry

Curdy will shoot 1t out in the cham
pionship flight, and Glen Weidman,
Maize, Moore and Hall in the consola-

Immediately following. Arrangements
have been made at both places to ac-
comn1odate as many spectators as DOS
sible.
Despite the comfortable margins of
the New Englanders in the doubles and
singles, supporters Of the Washington
poWlers are not discouraged. Tato and
FrlSk don't figure to shoot 623 each
every time they bowl five games. nor
does Jack White figure to gather 657
sticks often.
On the other hand, Harrison, with
598, and RoSenburg with 533, were be-
low average. Should they put on a hot
nand and their foemen slip a trif1e. the
tables might easily be turned.
Campbell Is Gamester.

eVen-money wager in the final block.
