ever. likely will be relished to the full,
for Washington more and more is
losing its grip as the queen city Of
duckpin shooting. In proportion to
population it probably continues to
hold a healthy margin in numerical
strength, but in the class of its lead
ing bowlers It seems to have fallen
considerably behind.
With the United States Duckpin
League in operation next season, the
Capital could make profitable use of
Nick Tronsky or Ray Barnes. The
sensational individual supplies the pull
at the gate and Washington has none
to rate with Tronsky, who will shoot for
Wlllimantic, Conn. or Barnes of Bal
tinore. Not since Glenn Wolstenholme
became a fat boy has there been
bowler to carry this city's banner with
consumate grace. Glenn was the unan-
imou3 and enthusiastic choice of the
duckpin clan to oppose any other city's
best. There is no distinctive ace now,
yet high-grade howlers abound more
than ever.
Singles battles between Wolsten-
holmes and Tronskys would go long
way toward bringing their teams out at
the big end Of the horn financially and
1t seems this far away the league Is In
for titantic struggle to keep its head
above financial waters.
In his own town Tronsky at times Is
too much of an attraction for his own
good. Nick is manager of an alley and
when he bowls most of the customers
knock of to watch him.
