points to their credit are ruling su- preme at the top of the current standing. The Meter Department Jayvces, last weeks victims of the Joy clan, offered little in the way of opposition to the Testers and were wiped out for four points. The Meter Readers, Sales Department and the bowling aggregation repre- senting the Naugatuck office are in 8 tie for second place. Just one point in arrears. Some of the teams that have had rather easy pickings the past two weeks will find things quite different when the handicaps are revised, especially the outfits who have been cashing in on that 85 allotment to unknown quantity bOwlers who in some cases are av- eraging we'll oyer the coveted 100. Yes, the honeymoon win soon be over.
 When the fox puts his head in the trap it's news. When Captain Jack Murphy of the Service De- partment was making up his team he was afffronted with the delicate problem of disposing with a bowler, for he had six when five were Suf- f1cient. Among the candidates was one Ray Ahearn, who admitted to John that this bowling was some thing new in his life. Now John figured that though Ray was . nice boy, and a nifty third baseman, that bowling games were not won with personality or base hits, 50 he farmed Ray out to Harold Keeler's Naugatuck team. Revenge is now sweet for Ray, the lad who was sold down the river, for he is turning in scores that not only top Captain Jacks but each and every member of his team. Yes, the old fox caught his schnozzle in the trap.
 The Forecast
 The old crystal ball must have been quite clouded for most of the predictions went haywire. However, we hope for better luck from the following.
 Real Estate vs. Stores B. Stores B 3 points up.
 Operating vs. Welfare. Welfare will be subdued 3 points.
 Readers vs. Sales. Sales 3 points on the right side.
 Stores A vs. Accounting. One point for Accounting.
 Collectors vs. Line. Line team will drop 3.
 Meter A vs. Test. Test will go down 4.
 Production vs. Service. Service will not win one point.
 Construction vs. Meter B. Meter will win Sand 2 bucks.
 Naugatuck vs. Garage. An even break.
 The Construction team, the scratch outfit of the league spotted their opponents, the Accountants, 35 pins per game. Even with the big spot the "Con-Men" figured the bOOkkeepers as rather soft pickings and expected to advance 4 points at their expense. However, they figured not on Paul Atwood who Op- posed Fred Drummond, the Con- Mems" sponsor, to come in with 343. Paul sure had nice news to take home to the. family. Had the spot been reversed, Construction would have still been . four point loser.
 The Operators of whom big things were expected just can't get started. Storerbom B were the latest to apply the anaesthetic and operate on the operators for { points. We expect Ed. "Cagey" By. the master mind of the operators to rectify proceedings before the season advances much farther.
 The Band Wagon
 The old wagon is grooming under the heavy load this week. Twenty eight of the lads shot 315 or bet ter, entitling them to 8 free ride. Ray ONiel's 371 makes him boss this week. Danny Bergin is on with S63. Harold Keeler marked his way to 352. Quite 8 night for the Naugatuck leader. Look whose herel Paul Atwood posted 343 which just topped his opponent, Fred Drummond's 342. Jimmy Brennan did his best to put the line depart ment tea macroSs. His accumula- ton was $40. "P-nnah" Goldstein clamors for recognition for that 336. Hail, Bob Snow. He's on with 333. S30 seems to be the popular number this week. Bob Nelson, Red Moriarty, Harry Owens and Nick Calabrese shot just that so they are given the same seat. Wal ter "Ozzie" Nelson did the heavy operating for, the operators. ~ozzie"
