ACTION HJ1LNLNG IN UNION TERMINAL MARKET LOOP
INTERESTING
BATTLES IN
PROGRESS

Here you are, fans, another
bowling league which can't help
but keep itself being noticed.
The Jnion Terminal Market
League is the organization in
this instance and an interesting
league it is, all things considered.
First, there's eight teams plug
ging-er-rolling away one night
every week. Next, there's some
nice scores being turned in, and
last but not least, there's sew
eral, if not real collection of
bowlers competing in the games.
A. D. Loffler, Inc, Georges
Lunch, Phillips Sausage Com
parry, Hicks, Brokers, w. C. HeiS'
muller Company. W. H. Harri'
son Company and Hay Seeds, are
the teams in the circuit.
The A. D. Loeffler team leads
the pack at this writing with II
victories against only ole loss
for a percentage of GIT. Georges
Lunch is second with two vic
tories against two losses, while
Phillips Sausage and Hicks are
tied for third place with seven
wins against five defeats each.
The remainder of the teams are
fighting it out for highest pos
Sible honors in the second divi-
sion.
Teams Well Balanced
What makes this league so in.
tereSting is the fact that none
Of the teams possess all-star line
upS-the kind that produce such
runaway races in some circuits
All the teams are pretty well bal
anced and many close matches
are played.
This weeks rolling produced
several interesting results and
scores. Hay Seeds, the cellar team
took the odd game from Phillips
Sausage Company by one pin, as
a distinct example. Hicks, capi
talizing on Phillips loss, made a
clean sweep in its matches to
gain that talked-about deadlock
with Phillips for third place
Georges Lunch kept pace with
Loeffler's by winning three games
while the latter was doing the
same.
Two better-than-average set S
were turned in during these
games. Newman, of Loeffler's,
totaled the highest set with 357,
while Perce Wolfe, of w. H. Har-
rison, was second best with his
348. G. Simons had the honor of
rolling the highest game-143.
Typothetae Roaring
While on the subject of indi.
vidual leagues, the Typothetae is
waging a roaring good fight these
nights. Big Print Shop is the
leader this week after a slaShing
drive, which has seen the team
roll like a championship combina
ton for the past several weeks.
Standard Engraving Company
former leader, is now in sixth
place, with Barton, Duer ano
Koch, National Capital Press
Johnson's All-Stars and Washing
ton Typographers ahead of it.
With action pretty fast and
furious in this circuit, there's nc
telling who will be the leader next
week. Big Print holds the position
at this writing by one game
Here's the complete records and
standings:

RELICS Of OLD
/. HOTEL SOLD
At AUCTION
Lafayette, Lincoln and Tyler
Once Guests of Famous
Metropolitan

The monotonous drone Of the
auctioneer'S voice reaWakened the
dusty corridors of the century old
Metropolitan Hotel to a semblance
of the old fe today.
The furnishings Of the once
famous hostelry are going to the
highest bidder-the furnishings
and dust and ghosts. Dust every
where. Dust that choked and
threatened to stifle the horde Of
hungry auction fans. Looking for
bargains for second-rate boarding
houses; unmindful of the unseen,
statelier ghosts that thronged the
corridors.
What cared they if Lafayette,
Con his last visit in 1920 Lincoln
and Tyler had once slept in that
gigantic rosewood bed with its
hideous ornate carvings. They
could have all slept in it at the
same time and left their auto
graphs on the bed Stats. 1t was
too big for today'S second-story
back bedroom and that was that.
Only an old colored man seemed
mindful of the traditions that
crowded that huge bedstead.
Grumbled he:
eff Mister Lafayette lost his
self in that bed they STILL be
looking for him."
The auct1oneer waxed senti-
mental as he discussed the treas
ures of the old hotel.
"Why look at that old bar"
Tradition reports that Tyler
took oath of office as President of
the United States in the second
floor front drawing rom. The
carpet, if the dust could be
weighed and time calculated
therefrom. might be the very one
on which he stood.
Dust and ghosts and:
1.-TWO dollars and fif'five cents
am offered"

final chapter.

CUTS
SCHOOL MAIL

Public school mail is being cur
tailed because the price of
stamps is a cent more, and be-
cause the postage allotment has
been decreased.
According to school officials,
the school department, which re-
ceives the second highest postage
allotment in the District, is send,
ing out considerably fewer letters.
The postage allotment this
year was reduced from $4,000 to
$4,000, despite the fact that the
price of stamps went up, and
despite the fact also that the
District stamp allotment was in
