WILL ENTER
TOURNEY
PROPER
BY DANNY GILL


With free entries to, sweep
stakes at a premium, Washing
tons fair boWlers can breathe q
sigh of relief since Lorraine
GULL, premier woman duckpin
star of the United States, has
announced her intention of again
remaining aloof from participar
tion in the qualifying Stakes for
the Washington Times Ladies
Dixie Sweepstakes. which will be
held Saturday.
Her sportSmanlike attitude
means that one more free oppor-
tunity is offered for bowlers to
win a crack at the Dixie title.
Was Hesitant
Only last week one of the
alley managers was heSitant
about holding an elimination
tournament for free entry, say
ing:
"What's the use? Lorraine
GULL will probably enter and
win it SO / wouldn't have many
women willing to try for the
prize"
But Lorraine walked in soon
after and answered a query with:
81 never enter preliminaries
unless I have to. But you
can bet your boots I'll sure be
in thr~c trying to win the Dixie.
Saturday. J
Never one to roll low scores,
Lorraine outdid even herself,
Saturday at Rendezvous, scene
of the first block of the Dixie.
Acting as a paee-setter for Billie
Butler, Lucky Strike teammate,
who was rolling in a preliminary
sweepstakes, the duckpin queen
flashed with a 1874 game, which
featured four spares and four
strikes, only the eighth and tenth
boxes being void of marks.
A Tough Break
The pathetic part of her feat
was that no official foul-line
guardian was or hand to witness
her footwork. 1t is a well-known
fact, however, that Miss GULL
never crosses the foul line but
since rules are rules, a brilliant
record must remain unofficial.
Lonnie Krauss, Columbia's man
ager, is putting on a preliminary
tonight at the conclusion Of the
Washington Ladies eague
matches. The entry fee is $3.50
and the highest set of each six
rollers wins a free entry.
