FROST NIPS TOMATO PLANTS
Strawberries and Other Maryland
Crops Also Damaged by Change

Frost killed hundreds of thous-
ands of tomato plants on Somerset
county, Md, farms, virtually all
set out being destroyed. Near
Princess Anne more than so acres
were killed. Thursday many farm
ers planted their fields to other
crops, announcing no attempt to
grow tomatoes this season. Others
will replant Strawberry fields,
many in full bloom, were badly
damaged, growers declaring that
less than so per cent crop may
be expected. Serious demage to
fruit buds in the lowlands of all
sections of Washington county was
caused by sub-freezing tempera-
lures and frost, according to re-
ports received from fruit growers
]. Andrew Cohill, Hancock orch
ardist, reported serious damage to
peaches in the lowlands of the
Hancock area, while the fruit in
highlands was not affected. Apples
were not seriously damaged.

SEAT PRICES

In a drive to get a few more
cash customers the st. Louis Ma.
tional League club has announced
that prices for boxes next season
will be cut. The reduction will
only apply to those buying boxes
for the entire season.
AS the Cards are an even
money bet to repeat in the title
events next fall it is expected
that there will be a heavy de-
mand for the box seats which en-
title the holders to first chance
at the world series tickets.
Patrons are being solicited to
purchase boxes Of four seats in
the first row for $500. Last
season the club got $3.50 for
the same group of seats. Boxes
of five seats in the second row
will be slashed from $500 to
SITS.
The price asked for the box
seats does not include the gen.
eral admission which will remain
the same this year. The pur-
chaser of a seat is told it is the
clubs policy to give him the first
chance to buy the same seats
for the world series.
The policy of scheduling dou-
bleheaders on Sundays and holi-
days which proved so popular
With the fans brought ahout the
reduction in the price of season
box seats this year. Thus the
box holders will get a chance to
save as much as the general ad-
mission fan does by the double
bills.
Split seats will be sold for the
second and third row of boxes
only.

BY GINO SINH

# Rosslyn doesn't contribute its
share to making duckpin history,
1t won't be that hustling little
burg'S fault.
On Saturday, February IA. they
are inviting the bowlers of the
whole United States-yes, stree;
the whole United States-to bowl
in the second edition of the an
nual Potomac Sweepstakes, to be
held at their snappy bowling
plant.
The event was strictly limited
to Rosslyn bowlers last year and,
as such, provided few and very
mild thrills. The entry was
small, and Aster Clarke, the big
thunder across the creek, had
no real opposition in capturing
1t with 612 set.
Make It Wide Open
.. This year, the promoters got
their heads together and, after
considerable whispering and
eesticulating, they decided to
make it a real, wide-open affair,
hence the boundless invitation.
Already they have obtained
the promised entries of such
.high.falutin' stars as Jack
,Whalen, U. S. sweepstakes
champion; Paul Harrison, Brad
Mandley, Harold Hodges, HOkie
Smith, George L. Iseman, Oscar
Swain, Ollie Pacini, Oscar Hiser,
and Joe Pricci, none Of whom
need an introduction to duckpin
followers.
With this formidable list at
hand, George Clark, chief pro-
moter, is certain that the entries
will be up in the forties and,
maybe, fifties. The event is dated
the Saturday following the close
of the Campbell Sweepstakes, and
Just preceding the opening OF the
National Duckpin Bowling Con-
greSs at Convention Hall.
Clark feels that this is the pSy-
Geological spot for the best re
suits, as the bambinos will want
to keep in stride after the "big
test" for the national event.
: Entry Fee Small
- The entry fee is $5 for the sin
giles and $40 for doubles, an
added attraction this year. No
bowler can hesitate over the en-
try fee. Clark believes that the
first prize in each event will be
about $150-well worth any mans
efforts. Entries will be accepted
up to starting time.
- Oscar Hiser, HyattSville bowl
ing boss, is rounding up his
bunch for the event. Sam Ben
= son, who abideS just across the
stream and was ruled out last
yeear, is eager to bring his
crowd over.
The sweepstakes have been
sanctioned by the N. D. B. c. and
the w. c. D. A.
Local top-notchers who invade
the ambitious little town will find
quite a few tough bowlers over
there. Among the more outstand-
ing are Aster Clarke, Russell Spill
man, Gene Gordon, Joe Freschi,
Bucky Harris, Ernest Sparks and
Milton Walker, all of whom are
carrying substantial averages.
1t certainly looks like a dainty
morsel, all set for the teeth of
some happy-go-lucky bowler who
can put in a warm mitt."
