The two major attractions, the
Maryland-Virginia Suburba
Sweepstakes and Bill Woods
; "Dubs" Tournament, are both 60
ing to be rolled at two different
maple-slaughter houses.
j. Henry Hiser is playing host
to 20 of the 40 crack pin-slappers
OF the outlying districts, and C. T.
johnson, who succeeded Burt
Hell as manager, will lend his
Boulevard drives to the remaining
ID. The cannonading commences
at 7.30 sharp.
Big Bill'' Wood had to split the
Dub Sweepstakes field three ways,
the entry was so heavy. The so
men who rolled last Tuesday will
roll next Tuesday at King Pin
No. 2, while the 108 who took the
maple-ways at the Lucky Strike
Saturday will be split in half to-
night, so rolling again at the
King Pin No. 2. Seven-thirty is
the zero hour.
Many COntenders
J The Maryland-Virginia scram-
BILE is a wide open" affair. Joe
Freschi, star of diamond and
maple-lanes, is leading with 612,
while Brud Kessler, with 500, is
right behind him, and Astor
Clarke on the older Kessler's heels
with 608, with a pack of danger
Gus duckpin wolves bowling right
after them.
The first 20 are all very much
In the running. Oscar Hiser,
Ollie Webb, the sleepy looking

Charley Watson and Oscar Kee
ere particularly formidable.
There are a half dozen bowlers
in the second 20 capable of power.
ful sets. Gene Hargett, a young
Ster with plenty of promise. sliced
himself a big hunk of cake about
a month ago, when he whanged
out a 436 set, the second highest
OF the season, in the Department
OF Commerce League. Noble VierS,
jr., the kid wonder of Silver
Spring, has time and again over
thrown huge cargoes of naples.
j. Henry Hiser. Ray Ward, and
Chet Lindstrom need no great
encouragement to break records.
And, then, there is the eternal
threat, George L. ISemann. George
goes along sort Of tame like, but
every now and then he gets up
so much steam. that his rivals
are blown right out Of the pic
ture. Just last Friday he rode to
his second Maryland Title in
three years, with 647 set.
It has been stated enormously
that this was Georges second
consecutive triumph in this event.
} That's wrong. Tommy Walker
won the title last year, George in
1929, and Harry Cashell, in 1928,
the first year it was run.
Fine Scores Rolled
Sam Parks is leading the 106
and under event with 623, a here
to undreamed,of score in the three
years this event has been run.
e. e. Barber is second with COL,
Anon Davis third with 598, with
Benny Venezky and Harry Nor
gan tied for fourth with 592. The
Fother five leading bowlers are
Fred Robertson, SGT, Arthur Dar-
ling, $50, Nal Tallant, 579, Teddy
Widmayer, 578, and Will Hayes,
572.
That changes in standing in
this tournament will be rapid
and startling can be taken for
granted. These LOG and less
performers can do some Of the
0ueerest tricks with bowling
scores, both good and bad.
A significant name among
those who are way down the
line is that of doc" Morrisette.
Doc can mop up large numbers
of pines on occasions. About two
months ago he rolled five
game set several pins over 700
at the King Pin No. drives.
An added spectacle which will
draw it's share of fans will be the
concluding block of the doubles
match between Jack Whalen and
Brad Mandley and Yves Askew
and Ray Barnes, of Baltimore, at
the Arcadia at 7:30. Barnes is
N. D. B. c. all-event champion
and holder Of the all-event high
set record for these regions. The
washington pair leads by five
pins.
