FRENCH-BRASSIE
 PIN MEET TOPS DUSTY ALLEY SLATE

The feature game on to-night's s Industrial League card will be be- tween the French Manufacturing company and American Brass. The former dropped one game last week to the Diamond Ginger Ales which resulted in their dropping down from second to fourth place. Their opponents by virtue of three-game win still hold share in second place with The Connecticut Com rany. In order to regain their posi- ton the French Manufacturing company will have to be at their ing they meet the Worden Dairy, another team that is liable to cause them trouble. The Brass Company who have been hitting below par for the past few weeks are just about due for come back and with this fact in mind. there is no question that to-night's match will be a we'll contested one.

 The Trolleymen, candidates for second place also, meet the Patent Button. but the fact that they are drawing against the Button Makers is no guarantee that they will win three easy games. One of the privi- leges of tail-end team is to dis comode the teams higher up and 1t will be recalled that once before the Patent Button took two games away Waterbury Clock, practically de- ciared winners of the league, meet Bill Cunningham's Worden team, and, although the result will have no bearing on the standing of the Clock company, it may mean some- thing to the Worden team. The Diamond Ginger Ales should have a good close contest with the Plume and Atwood team and the Oakville Pin company with three games won before they start, meet Fred Mer- cer's team of pacers. Next week is the final week of play.
 Two more local entries have been received for the Eastern Sweepstakes |" be rolled next Sunday at Genlot's and according to the whisperings around the various alleys, there will Ee 8 number of others enroll before the end of the week.
 George Foley has been entered from the Palace Alleys, Naugatuck and long George can bowl with the least possible effort, and as effective as anyone around these parts. The other entry is from Eppy Gagain. the popular Chase company bowler, and with him in the race it is sure bet that Joe Lavallo will line up along side of him. Others mentioned as likely to try their skill are Sam Sc na. Sam LazZa and Bob Stone. Bill Cunningham may also decide to enter, and it is almost certain that CJ D'Vileskis will be starter, and the same goes for Jimmie Barber. A schedule has been mapped out to ac- commodato 72 players and the com mittee think that with proper local support, this number will be reached. The tournament is sched- uied for 1 P. m. which should allow the first session to be completed by 2:30. The second session will prob ably start at 4 D. m. and the final at I:30. While the committee will probably accept post entries, those who intend to compete should get their names in at once, and help to make things easier in preparing the program.
