The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-12-18

Well! Well! The c. l.. & r. Go. Bowling league express. with its one hundred members abroad. thundered In on high to It's eighth bowling night. When 1t was off again for the next station 1t had on board the shattered hopes of Iiie leagues leading teams who fig- ured in advance on increasing their lead at the expense of the round heels who held forth near the bot torn rung of the standing ladder. These round heels proved anything but push overs for the boys on the top, for they rose up on their hind legs and in most every case admin istered sound sheilacklngs to their brothers who were figured as being invincibie. 1t surely was tough night for most of the teams who were playing tag around No. sets Wednesday night then on any night since the season opened.
 Bus Wailacc's Wrecking Crew aro still clinging to first place hut 1t Is only by one wccny point. The Wrcckers received . { point spank. ing from Hill Kl0dcdaDx' rcjuvcnat- ed outfit. Jack Murphy's Foxes sneakcd into second place, passing both the Galipeau TrOubadours and the Nelson Steam Rollers. who took sweet pastings from the Baker Wonder Boys and the lOwly Mar tyrs. In third place we have ( tenn tic. T'hc Nelson, Langc. Gali- pcau and Pray outfits being dcad- locked for this position. Otto Mouillcttc's Wild Cats are swaying on the fourth rung. Tho MOuiI- lette combine clawcd up Ray Mills Collar Ads for three points. The rest of the Wolves arc not very far ofF.
 Herb Strid, whose vast knowl- edge of real estate was decided asset to his team for his 365 was q great help in digging a grave for Jack Roberts and his four mules. Incidently Herbs hand is out for the high three prizes. Congratula- lions, Herbie! tst
 The games between the Nelson Clique and the Byrnes coached Martyrs provided the nights great est upset. The setback Of Notre Dame had nothing on it. The Byrnes Clan after bad night last week came back like Jack Demp- soy did after Firpo. in their mem orabie battle few years back, and handed the Nelsons q ( point slap that will take sometime to wear or. Frank Byrnes. was tickled pink to see his under dogs come through. He figured 1t was m evening well spent to be on hand to see the Steamrollers jump through the hoop. Incidentally Franks bunch won the high team money.
 Bill Forsnan, oiic of the leading lights up. Isobinw0Od way, just couldn't get that side arm delivery working to his liking. hut ail in ali. Biil did moi have such . abad night. considering the fact that it has been sometime since he has cast the spheres down tIlc maple. BiiI gets our vote for being the best nafurcd mcfil1cr of the league. At work or play, BiiI's features are usually wreatised with that million dollar smile of his. Ht would be a great world tf all the inhabitants were like Isiii.
