ABOUT AUTO LICENSES

bismarck, N. D.,
May S, 1881.
Editor, Tribune:
In my travels through your fair
state. I have noticed two things
which are the most distasteful of
anything coming to my attention in
this area In the first place, I would
mention the dust, which is an IN
comfortable element Of nature. The
second is, however, I believe con-
trollable. This is the number of 1890
auto licenses in use in North Dakota.
Here 1t is, more than one-third of
the year past and I truly believe that
the licenses which I observed were at
least half 1880. I believe that 1890
licenses were observed by me more
on the large cars than the smaller
types. What is the reason? North
Dakota is in much better financial
condition than a great many other
states. The people seem prosperous
and new cars are seen everywhere. It
seems that this is a cas- of criminal
negligence on the part of both the
car owner and officials. Do not your
laws provide a penalty for such &C
ton or lack of action? It hardly
seems fair to the person who buys
his license early to have to be faced
with old licenses for months later
when he. too. might be having the
use of his money spent for his early
license.
This, Of course. is not my affair.
but it makes even an outsider" boil
to see such indifference on the part
of officials and such negligence on
the part of citizenry. I believe that
people of North Dakota are true
American citizens and believe in the
principles of the laws. but the Off
Gals have not successfully carried out
their duties in forcing the new Ii
censes onto cars being driven.
This is merely an impression from
one who loves North Dakota and
North Dakota people.

Holy Rosary bowlers are in.
clined to be chesty these days,
for they have taken the measure
of the powerful st. Gabriel team,
leading the Holy Name League,
and they took the deciding game
on a roll-off.
Capt. Tony Leone's BAT was the
big shot in the festivities, but all
the Rosarians helped. Tony De-
fino's 1913 and Ed Cotter's 371
went for naught for the st.
GabrielS.
It was the first set Bishop Nc
Namara's boys have lost, and
they are still in first place, while
their victors are sharing second
with Holy Trinity, who won two
from st. Peters. Joe Kinnahan

With Wilson shooting 376 and
Phipps a 374, the team chalked
up games Of 593, Coz and 534
for a 1,729 set, a new record by
more than 100 pins. The 602
game is also a new record, and
perhaps Wilson's 376. In the
meantime, Phipps' 374 boosted
his 116 average to around 118.
Shepherd had 369. Phipps had
a $50 game.
It was a memorable night

nette who is considerably peeved
over the adverse publicity which
is being set sfloat concerning
her favorite bowler. The pretty
lady is Mrs. Howard Campbell.
''They keep making dOleful
remarks about Howard" she
complains, land it isn't quite
fair. Howard is not going half
bad. He has been bowling for
q dozen years, and right now
he is averaging better than
many years in the past, al
though his average is not up
to the standard expected Of
him. He'll get it there, thought"
Ever since he established an
alLtime high average mark two
years ago, they have been ex-
pecting him to do sensational
work every time he steps out
on the alleys. You will note
that his mark is still q record,
though one Of the greatest sea
sons in duckpin history has
passed since then"
Last year, despite the con-
Btant harping Of his well
wishers and good friends, How.
ard averaged 116 in the Dis
trict and that was one Of the
highest averages Of his career.
Did they expect him to again
roll for q 121 pace? How many
great bOwlers have carried a
phenOminal average for two sea-
sons In q row." she flashed.
When one looks back over the
records, it is quite evident t h a
the pretty lady knows her bow
lers.
Brad Mandley chalked up a 11s
all-time Central and South At
lantic record mark the year be
fore Campbell's 121 and hasn't
been able to do better than 116
since. Jack Whalen led the Dis
trict League with 118 four years
ago, but hasn't duplicated the
feat in local duckpin circles. Make
Rosenberg was Masonic League
high average man with 118 also
four years ago. Where is he
now.
There is the strange case OF
Dutch Weidman who led both the
District and Federal League with
lis averages the same year the
Sailor had 121 in the Ma t i onal
Capital, but he hasn't been able
to do anything since. Joe Nc
Golrick, who kept pace with Camp
bell just one point behind al
season two years ago, hasn't even
approach his former terrific pace
"They keep talking about
Howard changing his delivery
and other unnecessary and un-
earthly dOings?" The pretty
Mrs. Continued, "Why should he
change his delivery? Didn't it
carry him to q record which
has WithStOOd the assault of
some $4,000 CentraLSOuth At
lantiC bOwlerS for q whole sea-
son? Didn't it give him 116
last year, q pretty nifty aver.
age for anyone, even If 1t
doesn't get you a ranking"
Howard is easy-gOing and
hard to rattle, but this con-
slant pin-sticking is getting
him. He feels that the boys are
expecting him to do the sensa-
tfOnsl, and he is trying to
satisfy their demand. 1t is
hurting him. Whenever he has
an Off-night, he is never al
lowed to forget it, and he's hu-
