i i Metropolitan district champion,
was defeated, but not Inundated
BY Clayton Henson, Northern Virginia
titleholder. in the Bladensburg carni-
val invitation tournament. in which l6
stars participated. Henson rolled up
a lead of 80 to O. before Saunders hit
his stride and so fast did the Metro

1t seemed Henson would be the ultimate
1ooser. With the score at As to 43 in
favor Of Henson, Saunders missed the
peg and the Virginian tossed two ring
ers to triumph.

Ter. a visitor here. who ranks No 10
