When Greek meets Greek on the field of honor, there is bound to be fireworks and when Rogers Recrea- tion Bowling Five clashed with the Palace quintet last night at Rogers alleys in a Connecticut State Duck pin Bowling league match, the sparks flew fast and thickly.
 Backed by experience and the ability to remain calm under fire, the rip-roaring pin toppers from Rogers alleys took the Palace Five into camp in three straight games. However, the winning team gave evidence of being under a terrific strain because, for the first time in many weeks, the team fell below it's bowling mark of 1,S0o. It rolled l,786 last night.
 Nick Tronosky came through as high man in last nights match when he pinned up a total of 397 for the three games. Gacek barely missed shatterng the league record of 174 for single string when he missed two single pin spares in the last two frames.
 Piedmont was high for the Palace team with q score of S57.
 The same two teams will battle it out again Wednesday night at the Palace Alleys and tho team that lost the match last night, will be out for revenge.
