BY BERNARD HARMON

The outstanding individual per-
formances of last nights league ses-
sions were produced by the Citizens
Gas Co., bowling at the Uptown Al
leyS, while in the indianapolis
League. the Gregory & Appel team
was scattering the sticks for the
best team total in the city.
Oren Medlin. leadoff man for the
Main Office team Of the Gas organ
iZation, fired a 709, the best indi-
idual total of the evening. George
Benefiel cracked out a 691 for run
nerup honors and Johnny Murphy
again shared the spotlight when he
produced a pair of huge 900 totals.
Mediums top series was made pos
sible when he dove tailed games Of
1911, 265 and 253 to reach 709. 1t
was the first time in his five years
Of league bowling that he had
passed the TOO mark. Beneflel, who
was just one mark behind, at sci,
the best series in his bowling career,
reached his total with counts of
226, 246 and PIG. Murphy'S best
series, a 663, came during the Gas
session, while in the indianapolis
League on a later shift he smacked
out a 653
Three other totals of the Gas Co.
League were better than 600. Joe
Danna collecting a 610, Frank Sour
bier 500 and Norman Hamilton, a
COL. Mulphy's Prospect No. l was
the only team to win its series via
the shutout route. 1t totaled 1909 to
win its opening game and then
proceeded to knock off the opposing
Distribution No. 7 in the next two.
Two time winners were Main Office
No. 10, Prospect No. 3, Prospect No.
4, and Prospect No. 2, who defeated
Distribution No. 6, Main Office No.
9, Distribution No. 5 and Distribu-
ticn No. 6.
The Gregory & Appels 3104 not
only represented the best team total
of last nights league sessions, but
the best of the season for the team.
1t came from games of 1927, 1854
and 1923, and gave the Gregorys an
easy three-game victory over the OPP
posing Falls City Hi-Brus. The Greg
oryS used a quartet of 600 totals in
amassing their top count. Murphy's
653 being the best Of the four. Don
McNew had GAG, Carl Hardin 612
and Arch Heiss GOA. The lone honor
count of the Brus was Jack Hunts
618.
The Cooks Goldblume slipped to
a 2906 during last nights pastiming,
but managed to stretch its latest
winning streak to eight games at
the expense of the Chambers
Ranges, who were beaten in all
three games last night. The losers
gave the league leaders a tussle,
forcing them into an extra inning
when the initial game wound up all
even. John Fehr at 663, Jess
Pritchett Glib and Larry Fox at
GOT featured for the Cookemen,
while "Riney" Rllinehart's GOT was
best for the losers.
Marmon- Harrington, aided by Chris
Rassmussen's 637 and Nan Schott's 631,
was the only other three-time winner of
last nights session. The MarmonS BANKED
the Coca Colas, who failed to produce an
honor count. Smiths sos was best for
the team Ivan Holtz cracked out g ISL
for the Hare Chevrolets, but, when his
mates failed to click, his team dropped a

Retail Gains
Smaller i'm
Past Week

NEW YORK, Sept. 27 G.N.s).
Retail trade gains over the pre-
vious week were not as impressive
as those Of previous periods, but
the margin over the 1884 week
was noteworthy. Dun & Brad
streets weekly trade review dis
closed today. The increase for the
week ranged from 2 per cent to
10 per cent, while the estimated
gain over the comparative 1884
total averaged IL per cent to 30
per cent, taking the country as a
whole. Higher temperatures, it
was explained, were responsible
for the slackened merchandise
movement. With the peak for the
season yet to be discerned, con-
Sumers appear to be definitely in
a buying mood, judging from the
extension of their interest from
necessities to luxury items and
higher priced merchandise.
