Leroy ........ IF 31 4 2 Had the ,Ieague-leading Potter won all four points last week, the, would have about wrapped the frs position in the burlap but Ole Mar tcI's Orphans" whom they OD posed got real stubborn in one 0 the games and gathered enougi pins to bring in two points, so th' leaders go to battle tomorrow nigh -tlie last night on the schedule just two points better than theil nearest cOntendcrs. Although they have decided edge in tht point column, Jack Roberts, whose team opposes them, claims wheI the smoke of battle lifts lis Join CTS will be the Champs" of tht league.
 The firm of Tom Dodds and G are still in the race being tied witf the Roberts gang for second place Last week the Dodds crowd met Bill Leroy's cellar warmers froE whom they squeezed four points, SC Toms boys will answer the finaI bell with their mathematical chances ok.
 We can't say enough in praise for Jock Murphy and his Foxes. For the first several weeks of the season the "Slygos" charges ap- peared to be just another bowling team, then for some reason nr other they took on a lease of life and waded their way through the leOgue knocking aside all OppOsi- ton on their way up the ladder. They are now in third place with very good chances of finishing m the money. Jacks combine have established a league record in win nj g 17 consecutive points. Let's all rise and give bashful Jack and his boys a big hand.
 A lad who has shown decided improvement the past few weeks is Bert Stone. Being on the same team with him during the District General series we had chance to give him the two "O's". For nine games he averaged 104. Not so bad for one who was shooting in the 90's, a few weeks back. It was our misfortune to be teamed against him in last weeks match and believe it he treated us like anything but a pal. Yes, he proved to our satisfaction that 1t was we who were over our heads during the series.
 Were it raining soup some fel- lows would always be on hand equipped with ladlc. We are re- ferring to Fred Drummond. who usually turns in scores well over the 300 mark, but last week for some reason or other, the going wasn't so good for Fred and he had a tough time bringing in 2S7. When the Kicked number was drawn it was the match of his score. That am breaks for you.
 You birds who have a tough time breaking 100 at golf had bet ter not lay anything on the line with A. Joseph Colucci for the Millionaire" has signed up at one of those indoor golf institutions that guarantee to knock them strokes off your game. Joe be- lieves that it will be unnecessar ry for him to carry grass seed during his jaunt around the fairways thIs season - We await results.
 While we have this COlucci fel- low in mind it reminds us that we Martyrs are billed to appear against his "COmbOes' tomorrow night. As Frank Byrnes one of the "Combocs" puts it. the battle will decide who is Champ of Meter Department. The Coluc- ci's have been going like the pro- verbal house in flames but if A. Joseph thinks we have cold pedals, let him run his optics over the fOrccas below.
 THE FORECAST
 D'Vileskis vs Sullivan Three easy points for D'Vileskis.
 Colucci vs Kiely. If Colucci wins point he should bow in thanks. : Lautenschlager vs Dodds. Roy sets Tom back 3 points.
 Mclean vs Martel. One point for Mac.
 Mellon vs Pray. 3 to 1 with Mellon on top.
 Potter vs Roberts. Roberts back is to the wall, but he should grab 3 points.
 Murphy vs Mills. We give Mills 3 points.
 Galipeau vs Baker. 3 to 1 with the grief for Galipeau.
 Moriarty vs Leroy. Moriarty should have no trouble winning points.
 As the match between the Rob crts and Potter teams Is to decide the Leagues championship 1t has again been decided to hold up the starting time of this match until the other teams have started their second game. As this battle will no doubt be played before q capac- ity gathering, 1t has been assigned to alleys 13 and IA.
 Joe GaIipeau's MD informed him a few weeks back that he would have to forsake the alley game for the balance of the season. JOc, realizing that the doctor knows best, decided to replace himself. novost, Joseph Corcoran and Re- ville Fox were the members of the Crosby squad chosen by the coach to represent the school in the com petition tomorrow evening. Cap tain Bill Leary will make the trip with the team as an alternate. Sat urday night, Crosby swims South Manchester in the local riatato- rum.
