D.C.SUBURBAN
PIN LEAGUE
To MEET
Rx GINO SINH

Not the least in importance Of
the numerous bowling activities
tomorrow will be the meeting Of
the proposed District-Suburban
League at the Lucky Strike alleys,
following the conclusion on those
drives Of the duckpin classic be-
tween the National Pale Drys and
Temple.
Bill Wood is looking forward
to putting the finishing touches
on this new loop, so that it can
get. underway shortly. The various
alley managers who have pledged
teams are not having difficulties
In signing up first-class talent for
their teams.
Had Howard at Rendezvous
has already organized team
which will be able to give good
account of itself in fast company.
Hokie Smith and Art Logan will
have a whale of a lineup for
King Pin. The other eight teams
are swamped with requests to
bowl, and need only to weed out
the better talent to present strong
teams.
Pale DryS at Home
Up to starting time, bets on
the outcome of the Temple-Pale
Dry match were at even money.
The Lucky Strike is the Pale Drys'
home ground, but whether or not
that would be sufficient to over
come a 45-pin lead, no one would
dare state with any finality.
The Temple bowlerS have a
hankering for Bill Woods drives,
too, especially Ollie Pacini and
Chester Bid, both of whom can
recall many brilliant score
achieved on the Lucky Strike
polished mapleways.
Speaking of Chester Bid, recalls
q friendly match between him and
Ed Blakeney, a team mate, re-
Gently, when Chet beat the maple
spilling wizard from Baltimore by
one pin, a ninth box spare prov
ing too much for Ed.
John Blick's Midgets, with more
than 100 pins in their favor, are
+. going over to HyattSville to fin.
ish their match with the Midgets
who represent that alley tonight.
In the meantime, the District
Junior League is carrying on and
Hokie Smith is staging his usual
Saturday night Sweepstakes at
King Pin, while Monk Fraser is
offering his usual Saturday night
Sweepstakes at the Arcadia. Red
