Balboa, sensing its lead in
danger, spared and struck to

Christopher for the entire
set.

Convention Hall win be the
bowling mecca tonight for three
good reaSonsl
It will be the scene Of one Of
the biggest duckpin battles Of the
season, the return engagement
between the local Grand Palace
Wallets and the Connecticut ALI
Stars.

rolled off on it's mapleways, start

tant, it will be the hang-out Of
ArviIle L. Ebersole, W. G. D. A.
secretary, where he will receive
final entries for the coming city.
wide duckpin tournament.
AS has already been stated,
Ebersole and the whole Washing
ton City Duckpin Association Of
ficials are shooting at a 400 team,
TOO doubles, 1900 singles target.
The laSt-minute rush is expected
to boost the entries up to that
number and over but, Of course,
the hard-driving, relentless "Ebby"
wants everybody, every bowler IN
the city entered.
eff they only get a taste
Of the fun they can get out
of the tournament, and see
the improvement on their
game in bowling under strict
oh m p ionship conditions"
says he, earnestly, we've
got 'em. Got 'em for life"
'"Those who really enjoy the
duckpin game eat up tourna,
ments. Why shouldn't they?
It's the cream in the coffee OF
regular league bowling. It's the
dessert, the cake and ice cream,
without which no meal Is a COM
plete success"
This tournament is geared so
that every bowler has q chance
to be the best in his particular
class. Everything has been done
to accommodate every maple
smasher, from the bambinoS who
crash 'em at the 100 clip to the
lowly 'duhs' for whom a 12o
game is q seasons achievement.
Class e is for those who aver
age 81 or less. We certainly
couldn't get any lower than that.
Entries are coming in uni
| formly in each Of the five classes
and most Of them are Of the all.
around type, singles. doubles and
team. The au-event title, the real
test Of bowling prowess. is at
tracing more and more atten'
tino each season.
"A man can't lay claim to
being . good alI-arOund bowler
unless he can show well in
team, doubles and singles,
with their varying conditions
and demands. And the all
event title Is the proof Of this
all-rOund ability. The man
who wins that crown is, undis-
putably, the best man in the
tournament"
Anyway, the entries close to-
night and Ebersole will take care
of the late-comers at Convention
Hall up to midnight. He will have
plenty Of assistance so don't be
afraid to break in on him.
The Masonic and Knights OF
Columbus leagues have been as

Wednesday. April 80. Henry
Hiser's leagues, Bethesda and
Hyattsville, will take over all the
drives for one complete evening
yet to be selected. Special efforts
are being made to accommodate
every date requested.
The Connecticut All-Stars- Grand

way at 6:15, with possibly the

team engagement. 1t will take
