" v five bowling teams will
come to Washington from
Atlanta. Ga, to take part in the ma
tional tournament to be held at the
Arcadia starting week from tomor-
row.
This is further evidence of the
craftsmanship and good sense of John
S. Blick, duckpin mogul of Atlanta,
who had a lot to do with the games
development here when promoter OF
Convention Hall and the Arcadia.
Blick is footing large part OF the
bill for the Atlanta teams, no doubt.
He believes in the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress-was one OF its or
ganizers-and has a clearer under
standing of its purposes and its value
to the game than most of the other
bowling promoters. He and Bill Wood.
the Lucky Strike and Kingpin super
intendent, have been the strongest
supporters of the Congress since 1t
was organized in 1927.
John Delivers Goods.
DLICK promised George Isemann,
n secretary, four teams for this
years tournament, and George
was tickled pink. Characteristically,
Blick came through with five. Two
will represent Blick's Bowling Center,
two the Pinson Tire Co. and one the
Atlanta Paper Co.
Blick will shoot with the Center
team, along with Walter Lawson, A. j.
Sosong, Carl Tidwell, George Mckay
and L. B. Cutler Although getting
along in the middle SOS, John prob
ably is the best bowler in Atlanta.

WI will be represented by a team
the Palace crew, captained by
the veteran C. o. Caskey. The latest
New England entry comes from the
Casino alley of Providence, R. l., with
A. Duffy as captain.
1t is probable that many Wash
ington bowler will be bounding Ise-
mann next week to accept a late
entry. The deadline falls tomorrow
and Washington bowlers, too often
INDUCED by the Washington City
Duckpin Association and other bowl
ing interests, are notoriouSly tardy

after the deadline falls. A number
of the Capitals strongest teams
haven't entered this morning.

With 1873 he tied the league record
rolled by Joe Pricci three seasons ago
at the Recreation. Howard's 426 set
was the winning punch in three
