Helm is a surprise leader in Balti-
more. He is a policeman and physically
mighty man.
Says Ed Sparrow. Baltimore Sun
scribe:
Helm was cut out to smash the
naples, both large and small. He
stands feet pa inches, weighs 200
pounds and Is all muscle and bone.
What probably makes him an extraordi-
nary bowler at duckpins is that he owns
a hand span of nearly 10la inches. Few
bowlers can boast such span.
THE fact that Helm always has been
a base ball pitcher undoubtedly has been
of assistance to him in bowling. He
won four games and lost one for Lieut..
James G. Downs police team last year.
Until he hurt his arm late in the season
he pitched an overland ball that had
hop to IL. After the injury he used
an underhand delivery, a delivery that
is required on the alleys.
Has Never Won Medal.
Expert judges of bowling form de-
clare that Helms croSS-fire alley ball
is Just about the best in Baltimore. His
consistent rolling proves that assertion
Helm has been rolling both duck and
ten pins for about 10 years, never has
won an individual medal, but has per-
formed on several teams that have won
championships.
HIS official score in the Evening Sun
tourney is Sos, and was made ON game
scores OF 152. 142, 1875, 1872 and 104.
His unofficial high total is SIT for
five games, made on the Arcade alleys,
and mis- best one game is lit. These
scores were made without foul judge.
Speaking of his poor score in the
last game, Helm said:
Il went into that last game with
more confidence than in any Of the
preceding four games. had fine con-
troll, hit the balls perfectly, but / had
6 splits in the 10 frames. That ruined

25S Best Tenpin Score.
'Eeim's best work at tenpins is a
tosal Of 258 for one game and 645 for
three. These games also were rolled
at the Arcade. When Helm was en-
on Its championship intercity team, anG
he also was members of the champion

During part of the 1924 season
Helm was member of the Hagers-
