and zazu Pitts, in the role of a
sentimental upstairs maid adds
her share to the merriment.

favored by Mr.. Sheehan.
The rupture is the talk of movie

A NNUAL alumni battles will fea-

~ tiles hereabout this week. In
each case the graduates will
present formidable combinations, but
doubtless will be handicapped by lack
of teamwork. Tech, Western, Central
and Gonzaga are teams which will hook
up with their alumni. Fine battling
generally marks the scraps with the
grads. The coming games are expected
to prove no exception. In the other
match of the week Central will meet
Gonzaga Saturday night at o'clock
in the Boys Club gym.

others representing the Central alumni.
Central is favored to trim its old
rival, Gonzaga II only for the reason
that the Columbia Heights Boys have
seen much more competition than the
Streeters.

w WASHINGTON bowling fans
M will get an opportunity to
" " witness the outstanding in
tercity match of the year
Friday night at the Lucky Strike when
the National Pale Dry Ginger Ale bowl
ers and the Connecticut Blue Ribbon
team, headed by Jack White, the New
Haven Express, clash for honors and
heavy coin in singles, doubles and team
white, Tato, Frisk, Gacek, Otto,
sky-Connecticuts best, whose
names have monopolized, along with
Washngton's talent, the National
Duckpin Bowling Congress yearly
best 10" selections, will roll.
Against this redoubtable array, Lewis
Hopfenmaier, captain of the Pale Drys,
will send Howard Campbell. Jack VOL
stenholme, Paul Harrison, Eddie Espey
and Hokie Smith. with the sharpshcol-
ing Tim Dunworth in reserve.
The National Pale DryS comprise the
Youngest duckpin team ever to bowl in
a feature intercity match.
Both teams could be classed as
among the best in the country.
Campbell VS.. White.
Howard Campbell VINO recently was
added to the Pale Dry lineup, has been
selected to roll against Jack White.
Nothing could please Howard more. He
has a score to settle with the New
Haven express for those two beatings
the latter administered to Campbell last
wear when the Grand Palace Valet
staged the classic with the Connecticut
stars. The teams split in the 1O-game
matches, but Howard was beaten both
times by White in the singles.
Paul Harrison and Jack Wolsten-
holme will roll doubles against the New
Englanders. While 1t Is not certain.
Bill Tato and Carl Frisk are expected
to be the duo to oppose Harrison and
Wolstenholme.
The Blue Ribbon bowlers are here for
the National Sweepstakes, which opens
Saturday. the day after the match
They're here to give all they've got.
Campbell and White will clash in
singles at 2 O'Clock Friday afternoon
The Harrison Wolstenholme duo will
oppose Tato and Frisk at the same
hour. The team match will start at
1880 O'Clock.
The pile of jack wagered on this
match, singles, doubles and team would
| choke a dinosaur. The winning team
will collect 500 berries, the winning
| doubles combine $50 ana either camp
| bell or White $50.
Youngsters Unbeaten.
In sending his young pinmen against
| the brilliant array from the North
Hopfenmaier is putting them up against
as big test as they'll ever get. They're
undefeated and have piled up sensa-
| tional counts against such teams as the
Recreation Happy Five, Hyattsville and
others of note. In their last two
matches they successfully rolled better
than 5000. Against Hyattsville Friday
night, the Pale Dry total was 1923, an
average of 1923 per man.
Eddie Espey, who last year hurtled
into the bowling spotlight. will be roll
| ing for his twelfth straight 900" sci
as a member IF the Mats.

much excitement.
A greater percentage of bowlers are
showing up on scheduled time in the
current tournament than in any other
big affair in years, according to Arvills
Ebersole. secretary of the Washington
City Duckpin Association and chairman
of the Yuletide Tournament Commit
tee
There has been no difficulty filling
defaulters' places incidentally, it is not
necessary to have filed an entry to take
one of these places. So bowlers who
thought they had lost out on the big
party still can get in.
THE National Pale Dry Stars, who
L Friday night at the Lucky Strike
will meet the Connecticut All-Stars
in the outstanding intercity match OF
the season. will take their turns in the
tournament on the final night and they
probably will have a tough goal. Some
body Is due for a powerful set.
For two games. Perce Elicit looked on
the, way to another of those sensational
sets that made him famous a few years
back. The pins were breaking well for
him and he wss knocking over the
spares but later on he drew too fine a
bead on the headpin and was unable
to shake off the splits.
There's an atmosphere of friendliness
about the Coliseum, engendered prob
ably by the personality of its manager,
Harry 3. HALEY. which has made the
, tournament like big family party.
Everybody seems to know everybody
else or it's no bar to sociability if they
don't.
