The claim Of the supcrstitious
liz that No. 10 Is not to be assoclat-
ed with good luck. A look at the
score sheet after the 18th night of
The Connecticut Light Il Power Co
Bowling league has us thinking
that maybe there liz some truth
about 13 being hoodoo numerals.
1t was not only a tough night on
the league leaders, but the major
ity of the individual averages, went
down a peg. Yes, most of the boys
were decidedly off form, especially
some Of the medicores who turned
in scores, that they would be
proud to exhibit after three rounds
Of golf.
Hugo Lanke's Acr0bats, who
were setting the pace for the boys,
felt the fangs of tho Hitchcock
fighting Cougars and were lucky to
cop one point. While HugO's out
iit was being taken to the cleaners,
Bus Wallacc's Wrccking Crew put
Leroy, Inc. Oh the spot for 4 points
and are now In first place leading
the AcrObats by one point. Jimmy
Prny's Silent Comes gave Otto
M0uillcttc's Wild Cats u four point
tossing, while Jack Murphy's Foxes
were doing ditto to the Nelson Herd
SO that the Murphys and Prays
are tied for third place. Ray Lnu-
tcnscI1agcr's Meier DO Wells are
the sole occupants OF the fourth
cabin, although they only broke
even with Martyrs. They prOfitcd
by tho downfall OF the MOuillcttc
and GaIipeau combines. The rest
of the pack follow In close order.
The real battle Of the night WAS
between 81 DVileskls' Dare Devils
and Stewie Heitmhn's Comedians.
The Heitman's won the first game,
SIS gang COPIED the second and
as they went to bat In the third
they were tied for pinfall. Right
here 81 called his gang into a
huddle and must have handed out
some good advice for they went
haywirc in the last string In which
they totalcd 528, altogether too
many for the Comedians. 81 comes
in on two prizes this week, his 1882
wins the high three and his teams
1924 led the pack for the high
team iron.
Johnny DcVItO sure did embed
tho Mills cornerstone firmly In tho
cellar foundation. He is getting
back into his old time form as the
weeks go by. Johnny not only was
tho big noise In tho Culver's four
point win but also did things for
himself by rolling 1874 In the first
game to cop the high single prize.
Keep IL mp, John, especially against
the Drummond gang tomorrow
night.
Such reversal OF form. Tsk! Tsk!
Tsk! Ray Beardslee In tho first
first game Stayed the pins for 100,
but in tho second string, he
dropped back to II 1owIy IL. Bet
no talked to himself all the way
on tho ride to the Park City after
the games. We don't blame you
for holding your head In your
hands, Ray, we know how 1t feels.
I had n couple Of strings Wednes-
day night. that ia like to live
over.
That wholesale bowling match
between tho Meter and Construc-
ton departments got away to IA
whale OF u start Mt Harmon Gen.
lots Bowling Palace last Saturday
evening". As there are two fifteen
men teams involved, tho boys are
using six alleys to put Oh their act,
and what an act IL is-why that
Denny Brook Fair must have been
tame In comparison. When those
thirty bOwlcrs get going the action
becomes so hot, that IL borders on
u riot. The second leg of tho SER
les goes on tomorrow night, Satur-
day, January 30, 1892, at Gcnlots
at 1880 O'Clock. If you like action,
drop In and look 'cm over.
Tho score sheet showed the
Meter department 81 pins to tho
good at the finish of the games
30 that tho Constructs go to bat
with that many to pick up tomor-
row night. When one considers
the number OF bowlers participant
ing In this battle, tho games sure
are very close. Jack Roberts says
that his gang will pick up those
81 pins and then some.
LOCAL BOY MAKES GOOD.
The name OF Edwin Becky"
Hitchcock, stood out like n beacon
over the rest of the herd. lie used
ono ball In each OF the first three
boxes, triple strike you know. and
spared I'm tho fourth. His $50 for
the game was u vast help to the
meter outfit. IT you keep up tho
good work, "Hitchy" you'll be
tabled In this coIum each week.
Bob Nelson, that good natured
lad of tho Sales Force, was like
u dispatch rider rushing from alley
to alley keeping tho boys informed
as to who was up and how many.
Both sides appreciate the good
work, Bob, and hope you bring the
pad and pencil again Saturday
night.
Frank Monaghan and ED Me-
Lean, two Of the big mOlar men
from tho Elks league are menu

any opponent.
Fred Drummond ana II. Buck
