 With the addition of Laudemann and Beardslee the Second Cong team seems to have one of the strongest teams now in the Church league. Unless they hit a slump for a week or two and lose games that appear to be easy ones they have the best chance to bring home the trophy.
 LaudeInann carried off the high three honors this week with 37S and proved himself a splendid ad- dition to the team.
 Second Cong proved their ability as bowlers of high calibre when they took So. Fed, over for three games this past week. In only one game did the So. Fed. threaten and that was in the last game but they were still outplayed by 6l pins.
 Stacy was the only man not to hit 300 or over this week while, one not to mention any names, quit in the first game, after hit ting; but tho rest of men were right in there. Beardslee pulled 8 triple strike in the last game much to the great annoyance of Jack NOrthrop anchor man for So Feds., and Baclman showed his last year'se form in hitting 358. Cameron and Northrup were the three hundred and overs for So. Feds. but Uncle Joe Kneen Goodall, and Smith did not have any luck at all with the new pins which were Set out for them.
 St Johns, due to the heroic work of stOcky Hans Ruegg took two games away from Ey swan sons First Baptist boys. The nrst game went to St Johns with Magel and Ruegg carrying the other boys with them to victory. But in the second act the plot was changed 8 bit. The end men, Swanson and Marvin carrying the chorus to a grand finale.
 In the third game the First Bap- tist boys were way ahead when the mighty Hans toed the mark and pulled the game out of the fire and put it on the ice for St Johns. This was quite a blow to the Baptist boys because it seem ed that they would at last bring home two games out of three.
 First M. F. who is tied for first place with Second Congo hit the pins well enough to take away three games from Captain Thomp- sons Swedith Lutheran team. Thompson distinguished himself this week by stimulating his team by his own fine performance on the alleys. He himself rolled S21 while Nelson, the quiet anchor man of the team came through with a 333. He almost took the third game away from First M. E., but the lead that Brown had estab- Iished early in the game with strike and strike fill was too much.
 Lanky Harold Wright was the high man for M. E. leading the team in fine form all three games. Brown had a lucky night and with the held of the Gods who watch over bowling managed to get Q 326. All the men were in the 300 and over club this week but an- chor man Blair was not so good because he just barely hit the 300 and over.
 Bunker Hill managed to take two games away from the First Cong, boys but could not annex the last, in fact they lost the game by 21 pins. Both teams rolled well in the first game and came through with 500 and over but in the second game both teams dropped below this mark only First Cong. somehow or other man. aged to drop q little lower and lost the game.
 It was in the last game that the bows of First Cong became infus- ed with that spirit shown by Co., lumbia on New Years and took Bunker Hill lock, stock and bar rel. S now distinguished him. self this week by hitting $50 Tor his score with Abbate next with a 3O5. Poulson led the Bunker Hill Cowboys with 334, Norgren rode right behind him with $50, and Muchalight finally pulled his up to 316.
 MiII Plain were right in there ail evening, taking three games away from Birds men from Prospect. Hubbard, Jr., upheld the honor of the Hubbard family this week when he hit the pins with strikes and spares and what nOts for 343' All the Mill PiaiDePs were in rare form not one of them failed to get into the 300 and over club this week. Carl Anderson not feeling cOOped up this week let himself gO for a dandy 340 only three pins behind Hubbard.
