 BOWLING NOTES

The popularity of the Benedict Street League is growing by leaps and bounds to say nothing of few good pushes it has received. The crowd that witness the matches are becoming larger every week and at the rate it is increasing the North End Y shall have to build an addi- tion. MT Durr the congenial secre- . tary of the Y has been very accom- modating to the league helping it all he can. All the boys give this little fellow big hand.
 Last week the games were as us- ual very exciting and not settled until the last box.
 J. F.. Smiths Lumbermen again were the stellar and shining lights of the evening retaining their lead in first place by taking three games from Chatfields and Chatfields. Harvey must drill his charges in the same manner knute does, for they knock those old pins down. We have been endeavoring to get a pie ture of the Master Mind but so far he has foiled every attempt. The Coach's star pupil, Johnny Rozum. is bowling the best of his young life time under the demon guidance of "Silent John" Scully is one of the HlOSt COHSlSleuL DOWlerS m lnc league knocking off big scores every night. He says the secret of his re- markable success is due to rigid aD- plication of that old Gaelic custom. Do plenty and then talk about it, so we may expect to hear John break his silence any night now. Dixie Mulhern and Hand. some Hennie Minnicucci are saving their energy to take over the Street nnn tft mt in nf f. ball.
 Joe DeIIauritis and his gang of Cement Mixers are still dropping games but very few have won from the Lumberlnen. Shorty NardOzZi is improving, he throws only half of the balls down the gutter now. Sherman, Long and Cy Sardinski should try to have big night to- gcthcr some time instead of taking turns.
 We had an eye on Jack Mikit the blond leader of the Waterbury Mat tress Company while they had a tough battle to take two games from Tracy Brothers. We don't know what brand of eye wash Jack has his boys use but it helps them find the pins. Gugliotti. Budvis. and Wgnits are giving anybody they care to meet very hard time. And we can't help but write home about some of the games they win.
 Tracy Brothers led by their pop ular captain, Ernie Tracy, threw quite scare into the Mattress Com pany by taking the first game we think they were a little too anxious in the other games. Cannon Ball Johnson was all tired out when he got to the Y, for he missed the bus from Prospect and had to walk in His dogs were tired out when 1t was all over. Hobbie Tracy bowlcd three good games. TOOtie. three cruit for Tracys has bOlstercd up the team considerable. Fish Fam igIetti is still looking for his coat which was taken by TatO Ryan.
 The Apothecaries Hall Company had an easy time using their last team to defeat the Street Depart ment. We don't see much of the Druggists because they never make any noise to attract our attention And so we are ignorant of their do- ings. However, We have Jim Hutchinson scouting around.
 It is beginning to look as If the Street Department will take last place unless "I.ittlc Frankie" Her. ncr intices a few victories his way Bill the Bold Carroll has taken over the team to whip it into shape for q basketball game between J. E Smiths and the Street Department
 The Street Department has some very staunch rooter in the person of Mrs Helen Delaney. Loretta Bric- Iel and Miss Annay Kerner for re- gardless Of how the team is going wou will always find these girls at hand.
