"A stars and 200 men, with
averages of 10 and under
tomorrow will compose the fields
of the Meyer Davis Girl Sweep
stakes and the Greater Washing
ton Handicap Sweepstakes, as
these two classics open at the
Lucky Strike and Columbia alleys,
respectively.
The two events, one staged by J.
William Wood and the other by John
S. Blick, bowling magnates, ofhcially
will open the 1882 tournament sea-
son.
TWO other attractive offerings, the
final block OF the Northeast Temple
All-Star- Original Junior match and the
first block of the match between Henry
Hiser and Hokie Smith, will round out
tcmorrow's program, the most extern
sive so far of the season.
WHAT probably will be paramount
w in point of interest is the girl
bowling classic, the Meyer Davis
Sweepstakes, which to girl pinspillers
is what the Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes is to men stars.
A select event, the Davis Stakes
never draws more than 40 entrants,
but this number represents the best
Of the Capitals girl bowling aces.
AS usual, Lorraine GULL, for three
years ranked No. in the United
States, will reign the favorite, but is
the top or even in the money. Mar
jorie Smith is the defending Davis
champion, having won the Stakes last
year with the record-breaking total of
1,074 for the nine games.
The field tomorrow will roll the first
block Of three games at the Lucky
Strike, starting at o'clock. The Sec
ond block win be shot at the King Pin
and the grand finale at the Lucky
Strike.
THE Greater Washington Handicap
l. will be the first open handicap
sweepstakes ever staged here.
The entry list zoomed to over 100 to-
day and John Blick's three aides, Ralph
Fraser, Charlie Bell and Lonnie KrausS,
declared 400 will have entered by Sat-
urday.
One Of the richest bowling stakes of
the season, this event will open at 2:30
and o'clock tomorrow at the Co.
lumbia.
TTWENTY-ONE pins behind, the orig
i inal Washington Juniors, unde-
feated, will attempt to overcome
the Northeast Temple All-Stars when
the teams clash at $50 o'clock at the

Pacini, Brad Mandley and Ed Blakeney

The fourth attraction Of the evening
the Hiser-Smith match. will start at
7:30 o'clock at King Pin, thus giving
fans an opportunity to see this first and
one Of the other events later. Smith,
a youngster, Is the leading bowler in
the District League, while Hiser won
the No. washington ranking last year.

stakes and tournaments viii stand out
over even the League races.

Greater Washington stakes will come
the Dixie Sweepstakes, The Evening
Star Tournament, the Howard Camp
bell Sweepstakes, Bill Woods Dub
