BY FRANCIS e. STAN.

- HOOTING five brilliant strings
for a sweepstake set record
~ of 637, Ed Blakeney, one OF
the two Baltir- ore bowling
stars competing last night as
sumed by a single pin the lead at
the end of the second block of the
Howard Campbell Sweepstakes at
the Rendezvous alleys. Blakeney's
sensational score of last night,
plus his 500 rolled a week ago, gave
him a total Of 1,277 for the first
10 games.
Johnny Anderson Of Washington
trailed by single pin when he rolled
e54 last night.
Baltimore's bespectacled star, who
carries the reputation OF being streak
bowler. was not conceded much of a
chance of winning following his 500
set last week when 16 other pinmen
bettered 600, but he pounded the pins
for games of 1873, 139 131, l4l and l43 to
forge to the front in Washington's an
nual battle of bowling bambinos.
Blakeney, because he rolls with North
east Temple in the District League, is
eligible to compete in the Campbell
stakes along with another Baltimorean,
Raw Won DreeIe, who is imported to
roll with the Fountain Hams.
Pantos, Brill Tumble.
Last nights block was almost as sem
sational as the opener. Twelve pinmen
bettered 600 in the second block and
both of the leaders, Louis Pantos ana
Paul Brill, were displaced.
Pantos whose 666 set a week ago
VAS sent into discard as a Campbell
Stakes record by Blakeney's effort last
night, dropped closer to his average
with 573 ana tumbled into sixth pace.
Brill. rated. like Pantos, as dark
horse" rolled a mediocre 55l, dropping
him out of the first 10.
Anderson. young member Of the Con-
vention Hall team, and Paul Harrison,
youthful captain of the same quint, held
the attention Of most Of the capacity
crowd when both made brilliant
splurges. Anderson opened with l42,
fell back to lOe. and then shot a sensa-
tional 1852 He finished with l27 and
ia and a 654 set, giving him a 10
game total of 1875.
Harrison was well on his way toward
the leadership until the fifth game when
he was stopped cold by furry OF splits.
Paul rolled 100. $50, 1877, 122 and 93 for
a 623 total giving him a score OF 1850,
q pins behind Blakeney.
Clarke About Done
Bradley Mandley, whose 638 set last
SATURDAY. was good for fourth place,
was forced to share that position with
Earl Mcphilomy. Both have scores OF
l.249. Louis Pantos is sixth. followed
by Ollie Pacini, Max Rosenberg, Hokie
Smith and Charlie Watson.
Still another name was certain TO be
added to the list of those Campbell
champions who failed to defend the
title successfully when Astor Clarke
shot only SIS, leaving him almost
hopelessly behind.
Sam Corcoran of Georgetown subsu-
tuted for Dave Burrows. who Is nursing
an injured leg. and won back Dawes
entry fee of s25 with 1853 string, the
highest of the night.
The classic will wind up next Sat-
urday at Convention Hall with any OF
the first 10 having a fine chance to
win and several others bearing slim
hopes
Harrison one of the most noted
money bowlers in the East, probably
will 90 into the final block "a favorite
despite the lead Of 27 pins bv Blakeney
and rs by Anderson. Blakeney Is in
consistent and Anderson must concede
Harrison much experience.
