IL George ISemann, secretary of
the National Duckpin Bowling
Congress, as he handed in the official
list of prize winners today.
OF 1913 prizes awarded, SO, over rs per
cent. come to the Capital. Washing
ton holds seven of the eight champion
ships, missing only the 5-man team,
title, which was taken by the Recrea-
tons of Baltimore.
Ties for first place in the mems sin
giles and women'S all-events will be
rolled off in Richmond, not Washington,
as has been strongly suggested, Isemann
said. Jack Whalen and Howard Camp
bell, each of whom scored 430 in the
singles, will shoot three games, total
pins to count.
Mrs. Margaret Miltner and Miss Mar
jorie Bradt. who tied with CTS in the
women's all-events, will shoot three or
five games. The number will be decided
later.
1t will be optional whether the play
ers split the prize money or stake it.
Only the first place ties will be rolled
off. Isemann said that all four in

:. With any luck for Campbell no ex-
ira set would have been necessary in
the singles. Howard cut out the middle
in his last four boxes and was forced
to shoot great duckpins with his second
and third balls to achieve tie.
Mrs. Miltner'S 374 in the singles is
considered the outstanding score of the
tournament.
Phil Heffelfinger of The Evening
Star is the new newspaper champion.
He came from behind in the last two
games to beat Bill Beatty of the Fellow
ship Forum in the final round at the
King Pin, 585 to 573. At the end of the
third game Beatty was 81 pins to the
good.
Bob Rebholtz also made a Garrison
finish to win the consolation title. He
defeated Nal Lawrence, 545 to 523.
Lawrence had a margin entering the
fifth game. The scores:

 Forty-fiVe cents was the rate fixed in the house tariff bill. A democrat Walsh of Massachusetts, was one of those who pleaded for a higher rate on the product, asserting it was a new one being made in this coun- try and that it had to face severe competition with Germany.
 The Massachusetts senator said it was the first time he had favored a
