 Wednesday

Midnight tonight Is the dead- line for entries in the seventh Connecticut bowling tournament sponsored by the Connecticut Alley Owners Association which will take place at the Genlot alleys be- ginning Wednesday evening and continue until Sunday May 9th. Applications have been received daily by Charles l.. Harding, chair man of the entry committee and this morning 1t was announced that the tourney will be the largest ever conducted by the associa ton. It is believed that the committee will be kept busy with inquiries until after 12 o'clock. at which time they wilr close the books.
 Ready to Roll
 Strong local teams entered at press hour today were the Con- necticut Company, explained by Red" Roache, Laskas Motor Lines, Palace Five. Genlot, the Re- creation, and Lucky Strike five man team. Others well known in this vicinity are Mike Bogano's Pennington Valley team. which will face the motormen on Friday night, Schincers team of Derby that will stack up against the Naugatuck Palace alley rollers on saturday night, and the Laraia and Sagarino Morticians of Hartford who meet Ed Roden's Genlot five also on Saturday. The undertakers won't be buried under very large margin for in recent tournament they fell 1915 to defeat the strong Capitol City five. Their most out standing bowler is Charlie Gebler.
 More Action
 In addition to the regular five man team events the tournament will include singles and doubles with handsome prizes to be offered for the inspiration of the high pin hing rollers. The committee is pro- tecting all interests and will not accept the name Partner" on any entry blank, All bowlers to parti- cipate in the tourney must be properly identified by both name and address.

Roughly, the possibilities (and thsi includes several which must be ciassed in the extremely doubt full category) line up as follows:
 East
 Chance Sun, Commonwealth. Omaha. Plat Eye, Psychic Bid. Today, Mantagna, Younh Native.
 West
 Xoxthorn, Roman Soldier, Nellie Flag, Chance View, Weston, Prince Spiendor, Whiskolo, St. Bernard, Our Reign, Blackbirder, Bluebea-d.
 Review
 Last year Mrs Dodge Sloane's Cavalcade came out of Maryland, fresh from a victory in the Chesa. peake stakes, to win the Derby in somewhat hollow fashion. Back in 1881 Twenty Grand won for Mrs Payne Whitney, and, in 1880 Gall lant Fox won for William Wood- ward, all customers. But between these wins were two Bradley tri- umphs. In the last 10 renewals honors have been divided equally east and west.
 In view of the fact that both the favorite, ,. E. Widener's Chance Sun, and the second choice, Mrs w. M. Jeffords' Common wealth, haid from the east, the ball ance of power seems thrown in that direction, but Col. Bradley's Boxthorn, B. Sachsenmaier's Ro- man Soldier and J. J. Flannigan's Chance View are certain to offer reason to dispute the argument. Coupled with this is the fact that several of the eastern cracks may fail to put in an appearance.
 Tests Ahead
 Where last week Derby hopes raced in the Texas Derby at Arr lington Downs and the Chesapeake stakes at Havre de Grace, this week end (April 27) will see the $1O,OO0 Wood Memorial on the docket at Jamaica (New York;. At a mile and 70 yards, this event will engage practically all of the eastern hopefuls which passed up the Chesapeake and should fur nish an excellent line on the capa- bilities of such as the Belair studs Omaha, Mrs Sloane's Psychic Bid and the Greentree stables Plat Eye.
 Meantime, the weeks drilling at Churchill Downs has revealed positively that Chance View, @ "poor mans hoss," is quite apt to be a notable factor. He travelled a mile in 1:45, pulled up early in the week and showed to even bet te radvantage later. Chance Sun still Al choice in ante-post wagering, negotiated six furlongs in 1:17 while such lesser lights at Blackbirder, h e "honeymoor horse" and Weston, the ''hot tip have performed in splendid style in preparatory essays.
 Hot Stun
 With the opening of the Church. i'll Downs meeting Saturay (AprD 27) the western hopes will receive their baptism under fire and it will be possible hen to separate the wheat from the chaff. Nor should 1t be amiss to report that seem- ing well-authenticated tip reached the Downs last week that Young Native, a son of Pompoy which raced only twice as a juvenile for Trainer.
