The Spirit That Counts
An outstanding example of why
this league Is such a success and
full Of old pep was in the act of
Ray Lautenschlager in coming to
the secretary Of the league and mo-
tifying him that heewould be alb
sent from bowling this week be-
cause Of reasons beyond his con-
troll. In order that the chances of
his team would not be hurt by his
absence, he requested that a substi-
tute OF like average take his place
Wednesday. In addition he paid the
absentee fee in advance which all
absent bowlers are required to pay.
This is great demonstration on
the part of Ray of taking the in
terests Of the league into consider
alton and the league congratulates
itself upon having him as q MEM
Der.
Jimmy Pray is q hustling captain
and we do not look to Pray's team
to stay in the cellar very long.
More power to You Jim.
Noted: Ed Mclean after making
two box last Wednesday acted as
his own cheering section when he
RACED himself. He later cheered
loudly when George Beckley, new
bowler added to the ranks this
year, rolled q game with a score of
better than 100. Keep it up,
George.
The Hunter Returns
Bobby Raythwich was back this
week after q hunting trip in the
wilds of eastern Connecticut but as
yet we have not received any invi-
tatiOn to a game supper. John Joy
said he understood that the bag
consisted Of one mule.
In taking the activities of the
league into consideration, there is
a group of fellows to whom we will
hand a bouquet tonight and they
make up the Organization Com
mittee. Like any organization
where ninety men are involved,
there are decisions to be handled
and situations pop up that require
immediate settlement. Disposing of
these to the satisfaction of all is
one of the functions of this group
and the manner in which they
handle their tasks remind you of a
well-oiled machine. We salute you
fellows.
Retiring Pat Dwyer is quite a
rover as he goes from alley to al
ley looking over what the rest OF
the bunch are doing.
| Nice scores you hung up Fay. It
will not be long before you have

pin hall of fame.
Why did Jack Roberts have such
a worried look ON his face last
week?
| Johnny Robinson is knocking
them over plenty this season but
in spite of his scores, he has noti-
fed the boys in the storeroom that
all bets are off. How about 1t,

Ed Bly, the efficient treasurer of
the league is Johnny-on -the-spot in

The attendance continues to be q
stand-0ut performance on the part
of all and we don't have to do any
urging to have the boys get around
Wednesday night. It's the old pep

Talking about sensational form
this year, what do you think of the
