St. Patrick $ Holy Name Bowling League Notes

This pillar will be something out of the ordinary and to give you an idea of what you are about to read, it is an open letter to Francis Mitchell and Joseph Far rell, two of our former members
 now preparing for the priesthood at St Thomas seminary. Bloom field. Continue if you will:
 We are sending you the figures and few facts about the league this season and know that you are interested in learning what is beiEl, done. We trust that the efforts will
 not have been spent in vain. To
 begin with, can you note the
 change in the leagues tanding? We
 ask this because Hardy has al-
 leading in the individual class but
 no-one believes that he rightfully
 belongs there. Next comes Francis
 Fitzgerald, with whom Doc rolled
 last season. Then Ted Hardy in
 third place is something of as gift. We would call your attention to Happy" Villette who is burning up the drives with a fire ball that
 has strike written all over it. He
 rolled three in a row one night,
 Yanol Carroll is with us again belt
 ing away at the maple, and if you
 have no objections, shoot a glance
 in the direction ,of Leno Costaldo.
 who in this particular case is right.
 Your ol dpal Eddie Loftus is hit
 ting them in the same consistent
 manner and in addition has the
 boys in thetop position. Willie Car Troll certainly seems to enjoy him. self an dusually brings the G. k. along to witness the tits. Isn't
 that just like Willie?" Ct Drlnphy and his team have better than an even chance to reach the top. They face Ted Hardy next week and arc almost assured of three games. In event that you are suspecting, Ted is always in hurry to get home. Eddie, McGrath, newcomer, is threatening the leaders wit ha fast and well controlled ball. Then
 let's take Johnny Delaney, another beginner who has all sorts of pre- dictions and threatens to take your monicker Gas" s(MitchelD away from you. Mike Higgiston is mak- ing the most of the situation but according to well founded rumors he is due for drop. "Tex" Sulli- van, another of the freshmen, is woing quite well for himself and
 we are questionable about riding him, Nick Croce bowls like Jin:
 Phelan used to, and Paus Rice,
 long runner is apt to trip over hi,
 own shadow getting away from the
 long legs that Teddy Bares throws over the runway. Mike Daly is thinking about copping high prize next week. It was Mike and Bill
 Keller who split the five spot last week. @ A word about Rev William Kir-
 kus who certainly gave you fellows plenty of headaches last season.
 Grab a look at 103 average and judge how much help he is to his team who roll against Ray Sheri- dan, Monday. Rusty" Colombo
 has not as yet come through with anything more than promises. The
 boys have quite reception planned
 for him at the banquet. Slips
 Margo, Jim Barrett, Marty Toomey, Bart Buckley and Joe Dunphy are
 all considerably improved. Johnny Sudonis seems to remain the fly in
 Francis Fitzgerald's gravy. Oscar Cipriano appears to be a good
 bowler but he ain't. Mike Driscoll has been going to trot around a
 box of cigars but they haven't been seen to date. We will save a few for you at Christmas time. You recall Joe Kelly who makes all
 those predictions. We'll. Joe Is the
 same guy and will run into diffi-
 culty if he don't cut it out. Pat O'Brien is going strong as a first
 year man. Ditto for Patty Russo.
 Then there Is Harry Ryan and
 Patsy Garvey who were your
 friends year ago. The boys are
 right in there pounding on maple
 and ears. Tommy Lawlor has shown plenty of improvement. Jim Griffin reports that Jack German
 can't take it anymore. Jack hasn't shown up in six weeks. He may be down if he reads this. Tommy Kearney has plenty of that old
 is still about the same and if any,
 thing q little more. Francis Lawlor
 will perhaps be lost for the next
 few weeks. Irving Delaney was seen rushing towards the drives tt
 8 o'clock. Irv don't miss q trick.
 Rev Bernard Foster trains on the
 drives at the Lyceum and can't
 seem to hit R thing on any others.
 Pat Mcclure is with US this season
 and that makes everybody happy.
 Joe Bowen is' still hanging on but
 nobody seems Co know the reason.
 He certainly cannot bowl. Mike
 I4awlor is doing big things down
 there with Jim Pheian at ths bot.
 tom but neither seem to mind. it
