woods, Is all set and rarin' to 60.
George figures he made a ten
strike, despite the fact that only
four teams are entered.
TITS just a starter" grinned
George as he announced the date
of the grand premiere as next Fri
day. "but that's all we needed.
Watch us next year.
I'VE probably could have had i've
or six teams in the league this year"
explained the secretary of the National
Duckpin Bowling Congress, "but they
weren't sure. All we wanted was this
start and next year well have, well
maybe 10 teams"
The pride and JOY of local pin fans
In this loop will be the crack Rendez-
vous outfit, present leaders in the Dis
trict League, and the Georgetown
Recreation ouint. Baltimore will be
represented by the Arcade and Regent
teams, the latter boasting of George
Isemann as one of its stars.
The opening night of the new Wash
ington-Baltinore League on Friday VIII
find one bowling battle in each city.
The local attraction will be the George
town-Arcade match at Georgetown
Recreation.
The Rendezvous sharpshooters who
90 to Baltimore, should make plenty
trouble for the Oriole aces.
With a combination of Al Work, Mag
Wood, Carroll DAILY, Phil Goodall and
Red Morgan going as they are at pres
Snt, the BaltinoreanS may ind them
selves on the short end of the count
However, this Baltimore aggregation
q trouble all over. Frank Walzenbach,
who was second to Al Fisher in the
singles Of the United StateS in 1928;
Ray DRYDEN, Ed Dunnock, George ISn-
mann, Ed Myers, winner Of the Evening
Sun tournament last year; Bob Falter
and Ed Buckingham always make life
miserable for the pin boys.
Jack Sapp Of Baltimore Is president
OF the Washington Baltimore League.
Tad Howard, guiding light Of the Rem
devious Quint, is vice president: Ed
Dunnock, crack Baltimore maple split
ter, is secretary, and Ed Buckingham,
also Of Baltimore, Is treasurer.
I'm nothing but sort Of faculty
advisor" kidded George AN advisor
and one Of the better bowlers."
Can you visualize an inter-city bowl
ing league with the msplemen hopping
from one city to another via airplane?
According to George Isemann, the time
Is not far of. and In fact he says he's
willing to bet it's done next year. The
idea looks great to George.
The biggest problem. it appears, Is
that Of getting the bowlers into the
airplane.
The menu have nothing on the
women folks now when it comes to
sweepstakes, because Lorraine GULL, as
gistant secretary of the National Duck
pin Bowling Congress. is arranging
sweepstakes on a weekly basis to be

The same fee which is charged in
the mems weekly sweepstakes at King

plus so cents for the three games.
Entries may be made up until half
an hour before starting time, which Is
8 o'clock. Cali or see Miss GULL at the
Arcadia.
Bowling unquesitonably is the great
indoor sport in Washington and other
cities, too, for that matter. But bowl
ing ever has had some opponent to
stave OF and batter down.
which appears to be breathing In dying
gasps. And now miniature golf has
risen to challenge the little NAPLES
game.
Bowling alley managers are not
taking any chances at any rate, for
virtually every maple house has a baby
golf course annexed.
It's Just the thing for non-bowling
wives who delight in accompanying
their husbands to duckpin wars.
It looks ike this Rex team In the
Recreation League Is gonna be plenty
hard" to stop.
Twelve straight in the league is the
record Of the Rexmen thus far, they

at the expense of. the Commonwealth
Club. Morrison, Frost, Shambora and
Overend are the big shots IN the Rex
maple attack.
The Friendship Church League, after
three weeks Of bowling battles, still
shows the favorites on the top. Wesley,
defending champs, has an unbroken
string OF nine wins, while Chevy Chase
Presbyterian Is in second place with
eight wins and one loss.
