good breaks to bat the Finley team, three games. In the final
 game, George Holmes enabled them to make the clean sweep by sweeping down ff0, which gave his mates margin of six pins. | Fred Hungerford is gradually getting back to normal. He bowled twice this week as a substitute, one
 night with Reilly and the other
 with Finley. He had an average
 of 106 for these six games, but other members of the teams were in q slump and the com missloner's good scores went for nothing.
 Tine team explained by Ron Sullivan made six marks in the Eth and Sth boxes to overcome a lead of 30 pins and win the odd game of tho evening. All this team I needs to do to land in the prize division is get all It's members to bc moro punctual and steady in their bowling, for they sure do take them over when the full team is on hand. Frank Campbell is having the best season of his ciI- rccr.
 Guy Pugra did everything in his power to have the "ropnotchers" with his 320 pinfalI but his mates did not give him any help except in the final game.
 As long us Andy Craft con- tinucs to perform for the "Villag- l crs' lin the same manner in which he has for the past three or four weeks, we may expect to SC thm up further in the running. His 117 score in the first game and his 1O4 in tho third were the deciding factors fin these wins.
 Joe Harpin recaptured the title of captain of his team with his high score. The man with tho highest pinfall one week is made captain the following week on his tcma and 1t sure proves an incen- tive.
 "Whcre does the Rabbit go?" asked Charlie Charpcntier last week. The accommodating mem- bcrs of Jim Lords team showed Charlie cvcrytimc there was q hole ou tIIC Shu oA tlIO UthSJs The closest match of the season was played between Loughran and Mcfarland, Loughran winning the first game by six pins and losing the final two by one pin margin. Henry personally saved the first game for his team by going out on a strike to overcome a four pin lead his opponents had, while Patsy, not to be outdone, won the second game by going out on double spare to overcome a 16- pin lead.
 The "PI0ughbOys' Of Dcbunkcr- vile wouldn't allow Tony Pope to go past the second pole last week, but that didn't sem to bother Tony too much for nc had c pinfau Of 338.
 Jarlotts men won the odd game againstt he North Enders to pick up one game in the standing. which leaves them only one game out of first place. George Sullivan and Whit Moody wcro the big noises in this victory.
 How arc you going to win when your own scOrckccDcr doesn't give anaugh got q spare In the eighth box and filled with seven pins. All that hIs big-hcarted captain gave him in the box was seven. How ever, his opponents noticed 1t and as they were well ahead decided to tell Bill so that he would get hia nrOncr score IF.
 Cy Dvileskls and his men made It six straight by taking three g;t,nes from Cahill last week. We might also say that this makes six straight on the opposite side of tho ledger for the Cahill team, which Is a tough break as Billle's team was tied for third place a few weeks ago.
 Only five games separate 2l teams in the standing. The three leaders are a few games In front but the remaining teams arc SO closely punched that n three game win or loss would jump n team up or down seven or eight places.
 Plenty of excitement and good bowling marked the games De- tween the leaders explained by Jim Flanagan and the gasmen of Frank Monaghan. Flanagan personally won the first game for his team with his 134 score, while George Gearing and Frank Tobin were the big factors in the Gasmcn's victory in the final two games.
 George Gearing had n pinfall of 30O which is second high. three games to date. He made spare in the final box and needed an s fill spare to break the high mark of 37O. On what appeared to Ike a perfect hit, only pins dropped and he was short two pins Of the record.
 Bill Gumppcr and Tony Colucci turned in some good bowling Tor the leaders.
