balance OF the season the Leroy
gang will be known as the Cousins.
Hope the new name brings you
luck, boys. Do we hear someone
remarking, In O soto voice, you
need it?"
Howard HUMPHREYS decided to
get u little practice before the
games and grabbed a ball and
started that long run OF his to
the foul line. Some how or other
he got out OF synchronlsIn and his
left foot slid into one gutter while
his right dogglc was trapped In the
one on the opposite side. This was
too much, even for u fellow with
HOward's span, so he went hOri-
ZOntal. The DinbOy probably think
Ing of the crowded front room that
his folks would have for three days
IL the boy came down to the pit
and collided with him, duclscd for
safety, but HOwie put on the
brakes when about halfway down.
81 D'Vileskis spared In the last
box and needed a five fiji for his
team to win the first game, but
sad to relate, he split through for
two pins. About six of the gang
told US about 1t as soon as 1t
happened, 81 1 guess even the
great have to sometimes mix the
deuces with the aces.
THE HONOR ROLL.
Johnny D'VitO Is in the front
seat this week with 1876. Frank
Byrnes Is right In back with 1922.
Franks first two games were the
reason that the Martyrmcn were
able TO break even for the night,
especially when their Icad-oR man
went sour. Bill Grover tied the
Byrncs boys's 1892. Mike Smith Is
on this list again this week with
800. 1t sure was n help In putting
your team over the top, Mike. Gus
Breny crashed them for 328. Ditto
for Pete Lewis. Vic Baker eases
into the IImclIght with 1926. Hank
Downey, the lad with the double
barrelIed vocal chords, selects n
scat with his 321. Next comes
relator Joe Pilkington-PlIk hit
'cm for 317. Hugo LANCE and Bus
Wallace each ticIsIed the lumber
for 314, while that Woodworking
"u, IoIh DOuuS, S"iho e"'ouSh
with $40.
There is about q dozen more OF
tho boys above 800. We won't tab
them as their scores should have
been much higher, but we can't
help but call your attention to
that little tooth toter, Millionaire
Coluccl. Anthony went home after
tho match, took his little daughter
on his knee and went on to tell her
that his name would be on the
Honor Roll as he battle well over
800. That was real bedtime story,
wasn't 1t, Anthony?
No wonder Jimmy Pray's face
was wrcatched with smiles when
we met him on the street after
the games. His gang not only won
four points, but James himself to
mako It n perfect night, won the
attendance prize.
Ted Brelthaupt, one of the bow
lers participating in the big series
between the Construts and Meter
men, knocked Off fifteen consecu-
tive nine boxes in the first leg of
the match last Saturday night. 1t
was not only odd bowling but cx-
ceptionally good pinnlng. wen say,
Ted.
Ray LautcnschIagcr Informed us
after the games that there was one
advantage of writing these notes.
VIC could be certain OF not having
our name In type no matter how
putrid our bowling was. Feeling
that there may be other members
In tho league who feel likewise. we
are announcing to the world at
large that we had one "vcrra bad"
night this week. We filed our
strikes with twOs, our spares with
ones, had several four boxes and
to top things of, VIC were the
cause OF losing the first game.
How's that, Ray?
Tom Flanagan tried to inveIgle
US into several two-Way invest
ments, but knowing this Flanagan
lad to have quite a. rep us n picker,
We decided to keep out OF the red
so we politely decolncd. And say.
Tom, while we have you on the
spot, tell your boy friend, Ole
Martel, that we read tho Water
