The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-11-20

Each Wednesday night the matches between the teams seem to have more action and pep than 'the previous week. This week the boys Eure did whoop it in CL&p Co. style. We are sure that had old man depression been present. he would have crawled of to some lonely corner with the thought firmly impressed on his mind that 1t would not be long before he would be just a memory.
 The standing this week still finds the Nelson Steam Rollers on the top of the heap. They gave Jimmy Pray's gang a 5 point shove down the ladder into U tie for fourth place with Jack Murphy's team. JOG Gallipeau's Saxophonc Players also share this tie. The Rollers are being given run for the duke by The Wallace Pin Busters, who sunk the D'Vileskis Dare Devils 3 points. This Wallace team sure is knocking all opposition aside on its way to the top. Hugo Lansc with his four man team is in the third position.
 
 Wonders will never cease! The LOwly Martyrs went out and won 4 points for themselves. They dunkcd Bill Klobedanz's Cellar Warmers in the cup of defeat 8 games which, of course, gave them the total pinfall point. Even Ole Martel was surprised.
 The Martyrs have Frank Byrnes, one of the well-known all around athletes-he also shoots golf and pitches horseshoes--to thank for their perfect evening. His 341, which was distributed nicely over the three games, went a long way in putting lis gang on the right side of the column. The Martyrs captain bends low in thanks. Frank.
 While we have Frank Byrnes in mind we are going to let you in on a little some thing. Each Wednes- day night the Byrnes children wait up until Frank gets home. The first question they asked him is Dad how'd you bowl?" Well, folks, this Wednesday night when the Byrnes children were tucked into the pequots. they were in an exceedingly happy frame of mind for their Dad had real bedtime story to tell them. He came through with the high three prizes. You know. Frank, we are very well acquainted with another bowler in the league who would like to go home with the same story but his average Is only 94 and he is having a tough battle keeping 1t there. so the chances are very remote that he Is ever going to darken the domicile door on any Wednesday evening with grin on his features which will tell in itself of his sue cess on the alleys-you've guessed his name, the first try, Frank.
 That bowling quintet presided over by John "SlygO" Murphy knocked enough pins horizontal to walk out with the iron given for high three. Their anchor man. John Morarity complained of a main in his back before the games. but nevertheless he emerged with 3S2 for the night. Pete Culver wants to EnOW JuSt Wnat IHusCAe was effected, "Red."
 As we look over the winners of the prizes 1t dawns on us that Ed By. the treasurer of the league, will not have much bother dis tributing them for they were all won by employees at the service where Ed also holds fort.
 We have watched Si D'Vileskis bowl a great number of times, but never before did we see him roll a Iowly 77 as he did in his first game. But after that he proceed ed to pull in the sack and to prove that the 77 was something that he had to rid him system of--he eased in with IF and 119 for the second and third strings--I guess even the great do 1t once in while, Si.
