L Washington bowler, broke the
District League record for high
individual average last year when he
finished with a pace of over 121, but
the redoubtable captain of the
HyattSville team is not content to
rest on his laurels. He's shooting
for an even higher record this season
and after an only fair 1922 set in his
first effort. the Hyattsville star came
back last Friday with 395 to pull his
average for the six games to 119.
Two years ago Hiser was in an
automobile accident that threatened
to end his duckpin career However,
despite that he felt the effects of the
accident last year. Hiser came back
last year to enjoy his greatest year.
In addition to being a bowler Of
the first rank. Hiser also is a base
ball player of considerable note. He
is captain of the Hyattsville ALL

independent suburban elevens.
