DUCKP|N TESTS
GALORE FILL
DAY 'SCARD
By DANNY GILL

Anyone VINO can't get his f1ll
Of duckpins tonight is an out and
out glutton.
"Them'S harsh words" but
there's a reason for it. Every.
where one turns tonight he's apt
to run into a bowling match,
sweepstakes or tournament if he's
not careful.
OF course if he likes them as
most of us do, it's all to the good,
but there's still the problem of
trying to figure out which one to
attend.
George Isemann, the venerable
secretary Of the National Duckpin
! Bowling Congress is starting his
Washington match-game elimina-
tion matches today from which
should emerge the champion, in
name at least. of the Washington
alleys. The final block of the
Campbell Sweepstakes will be
rolled tonight as will the opening
block of the District Boys and
District Juniors tournaments
while special mems and women's
matches will also be rolled.
Meets Hard Guy
The ISemann plan has Jack
Whalen, who is representing
Lefty" Lonnie Krauss' Columbia
meeting George Honey, the pride
of Northeast Temple, at Temple,
at 2::30 p. m. Whalen. a former
United States Sweepstakes cham
pion, runs into a tough man in
George Honey, who is leading the
District League. Five games will
be rolled in Northeast with the
bowlers going to Columbia at theb
conclusion of the first block for
the second five games which
should make the final block start
about o'clock.
At 3 o'clock, Brad Mandley,
one of the best singles bowlers in
this or any vicinity, will roll Paul
Harrison at Arcadia. Harrison
has been called the toughest
bowler in the South" by Frank
Barber, whose Connecticut Blue
Ribbons have met most Of the
best.
The second half Of the match
will be rolled next week.
Smith Has Lead
"Hokie" Smith is to meet
"Reds" Megaw, anc Howard

date can be arranged Smith will
bear the standard OF King Pin;
Megaw, Petworth: Campbell,
Lucky Strike ana Litchfield,
Convention Hall.
AS the scene OF the last block
of the Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes shifts tonigh. to Conven-
ton Hall. "Hokle" Smith is lead
ing by IS pins Sam Simon,
Georgetown ace. Is in second
place with an even 1900, and
Astor Clarke, Times Dixie and
United States Sweepstakes cham
pion, is in third place with a
1905. Dutch" Newman is two
pins behind Clarke.
Although suffering from an ap-
RC14O1C4G1S dCCdNA, Ol11AGI1 VAPCNGo w
roll, but Newman will probably be
replaced by Eddie Espey as his
knee is swollen from a fall. Tony
Santini. who is in seventh place,
will probably have to use a substi-
tute due to a hand infection.
At Z o'clock, the first block Of
