FOR RF|FTEEN
PIN GAMES
BY GINO SINH

just because there is so much
duckpin activity in the heart Of
the city. little attention is given
to the extraordinary happenings
in the suburban sections.
J. Henry Hiser came in for
rude shock last Saturday. He
suddenly discovered that If he
was going to prove that he was
the master Of all duckpin-bruisers
in the outlying districts, he had
to really shoot.
Rolls Three 900" Sets
The quiet, unpretentious force
which so harshly shook Henry
out his reveries was none other
than Tommy Walker, the small,
alert, energetic chap who is max.
ing the suburban bowlers a power
in the duckpin world, both by
words and actions.
Three times has Tommy
faced the test in this "anti-
HiSer" movement, and each
time he has had q 600 set.
He won the right to repre-
sent College Park in the all
alley chaIIengers' rOlLOff with
. 6O9.
He won the roll-off with a
624, and shot another 500 against
Henry HiSer'S 576 in the first
block Of the 10-game match, on
Henry's own alleys last Satur.
day. That's a total Of 1912 with
foul-line man and everything.
Not bad, eh?
Especially when compared with
the 15-game winning scores shot
in the Howard Campbell sweep
stakes, in which all the big
"shots" participated.
Glenn Wolstenholme role d
1874 to win the first event, and
his mark has stood ever since.
Make Rosenberg won with 1884
last year Mandley with 1905 IN
1929, and RED" Megaw shot
something like 1922 to win in
1928.
with a 33-pin lead to work
on. and his own home alleys to
roll on, Tommy is sort Of conf
dent that Henry will feel the
sting of defeat, and that the
walker family will have a tidy
little sum Of extra change with

the opening game Of the nigh
school football series for 1881,
which has Friday, October Is, as
its debut date, it is revealed from
the official schedule just COM
piled.

All of the. series contests will be
played at the Central Stadium

played on Friday, October 80.
New for Western
Figuring in the opener Of the
series will be somewhat Of new
turn for the Western eleven. AL
ways before the Georgetownsrs
have been scheduled in the second
or third days play.
It will be nothing new for Busl-
ness, however. The Stenogs have
always been drawn for the open

At that the game should be
interesting in view Of the fact
that both teams will be about
evenly matched, baSing that

Ords during the series recently
ended.
Eastern, in view Of its late
motto of ''Beat Tech," will have
to wait several weeks before meet
ing the Manual Trainers after the
start Of the games. The Lincoln
Parkers are not scheduled with
Coach Hardell's men until Tues
day, November 10.
