Job and plans and specifications are
about completed. but, on the other
Chairman McDufie of the House
Economy Committee has written let
ter to Col. Grant asking that this plant
be not built, and this has been fortifieo
by House passage Ct the economy
measure, directing that none OF the
$3.50, 900 be spent.
The s750,0o0 in the Treasury lapses
on June 30, under the law. and adver-
tisements must 20 out, of1cials say.
about June to permit prospective con-
tractors an opportunity to examine the
plans and get their figures in order.
The House economy measure Is now
pending before the Senate economy
group. headed by Senator Jones. Repub-
lican, of Washington, as a special COM
mittee, and the time Of its appearance
on the Senate floor Is at this time In
oenn1te, awaiting, dS IL OOcs, ochaIe
action on the tax measure.
The House passed this section in Its
economy bill: Until otherwise provided
by law, no further obligations shall be
incurred under the appropriation Of
$3.50. 900 for the construction of heat
ing plant in West Potomac Park con-
tained In the second deficiency act, fiscal
year 1881"
As officials Of the once of Public
Buildings and Public Parks see 1t. there
is a positive injunction of law directing
that the $75o,000 heating plant be built,
but counterbalancing this are the House
action and McDufie letter. neither a
statute, but having great political
weight. The money must be obligated
before June 80, and to do this, officials
explain, bids must be called for by
June /.

 An early lead gained by Com. mercial in the first and second staA gas accounted for the points. Ve- tione and Howarth were respon-l sible for going over the double stripe for Commercial.
 Vetione's score came about as Commercial gained possession of the pigskin at midfield. Vetione slipped through left tackle on q double reverse and sped to the five-I yard stripe, where he was spilled .by the safety man. In three line bucks, Vetione went over. Vctione also drop-kicked the extra point.

On an end run, Howarth crossed the goal line unmoiested. Roxbury made no attempts to tally during the game, as How artil's long punts spoiled the slow advances of the Hallmen time af- ter time during the fray.

Mort Lindsey is issuing Invita-

 bowlers in Connecticut to take part in the next Inter-City Sweepstakes
 which is scheduled for Stamford on Sunday, November 18th.
 He is particularly anxious to have as many veterans as possible take part in view of the fact that
 Barney Spinella has promised to lead a group of Brooklyn and New York bowlcrs to Stamford that day.
 Invitations have also been sent to Jim O'Lindy of Quincy, Red Mill | Ter O. Wakefield and Archie Walsh and. Joe Boniglio of Boston .togeth- CT with Louie Catelli of Providence with the hopes that they will take part and revive the matches of years past. The sweepstakes is the second of
 a series being promoted by the | Southern Connecticut Alley Own CTS Association end is open tp all |Jcomers. It will be a ten game sweep, rolled across eight alleys with total pin fall determining the winner. The game will be rolled in sets of five, afternoon and evening with an intermission for special match games which are always part of the unofficial program of all sweepstakes.
 The competition is open to all corners and entries may be filed with any member of the association or players can enter on the day of the tournament.

 pr William Williams together with Miss Alice Dlugos, world re- cord holder of the Mixed Doubles will be opposed to team from Brooklyn composed of Barney
 Spinella and Miss Sopper. The
 Brooklyn team are rated as the best that the metropolis can pro- duce while the Connecticut team
 proved at the last state tournament
 that they are as good as any in
 Connecticut. KY Miss Dlugos by virtue of her per formances in tournament bowling
 and match games was awarded the
 title of No Honorary ranking
 bowler of the United States the
 equivalent of the title now held by
 Nick Tronski of New Britain in the
 mems division, Dec Williams out |
 side of the mixed doubles has no
 national ranking but is well known locally .as a bowler of great con- sistency. He should be able to hold the Brooklyn champion in check and may in the opinion of many
 score a victory over the renowned Spfnella. A
