HALL BOWLERS
GRAB HONORS

Occidental Restaurant, the team
that snatched the District Duck
pin League pennant from Conven-
ton Hall on total pins with a
sensational finish, including two
worlds records, fizzled like a wet
fire cracker in the Washington
City Duckpin Association tourna-
ment at Lucky Strike, turning in
a mere 1894 team effort.
In the meantime, Convention
Hall, the team that lost out in
the league race, burned up the
drives, pounding out an 1868 set
to assure itself a slice of cash
while it's individual members
sparkled with refulgent brilliance.
whip" Litchfield, mainstay of
the team, took the all-event lead
with a LAO total, six pins shy of
the tournament record, with Eddie
Espey, youthful Hall captain,
pitching in a 1,141 for his nine
games.
Litchfield had 4O7 in the sin
giles, one pin under Joe Freschi's
set, the leader, 388 on the team
and $50 in the doubles with Espey.
Eddie tipped off a 397 single, 800
on the team, and 1854 in the
doubles.
Bill Krauss and Charley Wal
son, the other two Convention
Hall regulars, flashed the best
doubles score of the night, 1876,
with Watson contributing a 379.
Paul Harrison's 399 at anchor,
aided materially by Iitchfield and
Espey, featured the Halls team
score. Espey's 173 game for the
team is high for the tourney.
Hyattsville registered the sec
ond best District League total
with 1,776, featured by Henry
Hiser's $50, Hugh Waldrop'S 378,
and Perez Wolfe's 373.
Joe HarriSon's All was the big
blast which gave him a Joe Pricci

And for a fact this little
Sammy who used to patrol the
center field garden for the Griffs,
is really playing fine ball for the
hapless st. Louis Brownies.
What has happened to the vet
eran in the little item Of his new
lease on life can not be figured
at this writing, but it must be
gulped down that Sammy is quite
a hitter this year, and even bet
ter than that, looks like one up"
there at the plate from the first
inning to the last.
st. Louis fans call him the big
gun in the lineup of the Browns.
They like to see him stalk to the
plate and thrill even more when
he socks out liners of the Iris
Speaker type-over the infield
like shot and onto the outfield
with decided hop.
Keeps Up Hitting Pace
So far West has kept up a
steady pace as one of the best
hitters in the league. Whether
he can keep going remains to be
seen, but the fact remains hes
hitting the ball at a great clip
at present-which item makes
him truly a valuable outfielder
to the Browns because he is still
the topnotch fielder he always
was with the Griffs and depend
able thrower.
West collected two sizzling hits
for the Browns yesterday as the
Griffs won a 12-inning ball game,
10 to 8. Both were singles and
in each instance they travelled
like a shot to the outfield after
they left his bat.
These base hits could not help
the Browns to a triumph, how
ever, as the Griffs, despite an
other bad pitching day they ex-
perienced out there on the mound
would not give up until they
had collected enough runs to
gain the deciSion-a most needed
one at this important stage of
the season.
1t remained for Bob Boken,
former Kansas City recruit, to
insert the. telling blow of the
day. It was a. homer into the
left field bleachers in the twelfth
inning which scored Schultz, who
was on base at the time.
