The Washington times., 1930-03-04


liable to displace the ex-Arcadian.
Levy has been topping the pins
with wonderful consistency In
both Of the outstanding female
circuits.
She has been the handspring
of Billie Williams powerful Rec
reation outfit which Is sailing
home to another pennant, with
only the John Blick uuintette Of
fering any notable resistance.
Levy will, undoubtedly, capture
the high average money in both
the District and Washington
Ladies League, as GULL has not
rolled enough games to qualify
for these two prizes.
No one seriously threatens her
chances in the District League,
Lucille Preble being closest with
an average around the 102 mark,
while in the Washington Ladies
loop Catherine Quigley Is her
nearest rival.
Quigley takes ranking for her
steady pinning. The Recreation
team depends no less on her than
1t does on Rena. Both seem to
work together smoothly and with
dispatch. While in the Beeques
lineup, since Gulli's desertion,
Catherine has been carrying the
brunt Of attack with marked sue
cess. Also her tournament show
ings, finishing third in the an
nual ladies' classic and winning
the husband-and.wife tournament
alongside of her husband are not
to be overlooked.
Pauline Ford and Lucille
PrebIe, both members of the
National Champion King
Pins, are putting up a pretty
good scrap for ranking, with
Lucille better averages and
second place in the Meyer
Davis Sweepstakes giving her
q little edge.
Preble holds better than a 101
average in both the Washington
and District Ladies League, with
Pauline's less than a pin behind
in both Of these leagues, while
her Federal League averages, just
shy of 100, add luster to her:
achievements. Ford's 153 game
and $40 set, both season marks
for women in the District, brings
her out in relief.
BeSs Ackman. only fair league
bowler, claims attention for her
special event showings. Besides
winning the Stars singles tour
nament, she is making a habit
of winning the Saturday nights
Ladies' Sweepstakes at the Ar
cadia.
Elsie Fischer's Federal League
averages must be given serious
consideration. Nor is her Ar
cadia achievements to be sighted,
She is not hitting them as she
did last year, but nevertheless
her performances are outstand-
ing.
Lucy Owen, Eastern Star flashy
maple spiller, comes in for her
share Of attention. Besides hold
ing practically every individual
honor In this circuit. including
an average over the 100 mark.
she heads the John Blick District
loop girls with 10000 for 66
games, and snatched a cash prize
in the Meyer Davis Sweeps.
Helena KOhIer, too, comes
in for no little comment. Her
bowling makes the Lucky
Strike lineup a tough hurdle
for the leaders. She is par.
ticuIarly good under stress.
Margaret Miltner, Bess Hoff-
man, Irene Mischou and Billie
Butler, who stood out proni.
nently last season, have had a
reversal of form, but may snap
out of 1t before the season closes.
Blanche Wootton, Of the Silver
Spring team, is the most promis-
ing newcomer. with Evelyn Ream
and Betty Dugan, Of John Blick
and Temple respectively giving
her good run.
The absence Of Marie F'rere
and Marjorie Bradt, and the sub
sequent departure of Miss Gull
gave the fair bowlers a wide open
field In which to battle for su.
premacy and they have taken
advantage of the opportunity.
