Notes

The league leading elders In
creased their lead over second place
to three full games last Friday night
as result of thei rtwo to one VIC
tory over the Beers. For q while
though, things didn't look any too
bright for them as they were shell
lacked In the first game, with Art
Kennedy out Of the lineup. Art
showed up In time for the remain
ing two games, however, and they
went on to win the both of them.
Fritz Kern, 346, and J. N. Delaney,
326, led the elders while Nelson, 800.
and Green, 326, starred for the
Beers.
'rs.s-
Practically every Gin player fat
tened his individual average as the
team won games at the expense of
the Whistles. The Gins would have
won all three had 1t not been for
Capt. Jack Slatterys splendid 135
last game which enabled his Whisky
team to win by 3 pins. Every Gin
player hit 300 or better but the
standouts were Fred Delaney, 344
and Leo Scully 342. These two team.
are now tied for second place with
81 victories against Is losses.
In spite of having only four men
each, the Champagnes and Cognacs
did some fancy scoring In their
match. The former had high team,
single for the evening Of $50 and a
three game score Of 1855. The lat-
ter team rolled very consistently and
totaled 1872. At any rate, the "Cogs, /,
won two as they took the first and
last games. The Champagnes won
the second as Gregory created new
high single Of 16l for the first d.
vision. Stafstrom 1852 and White
343 were the winners strongest men
but they had plenty of help from
Murphy 3l3, and Harris 300. For
the losers Gregory had 405. In addi-
ton johnson had $40 and Ray Ber-,
gen 305. These two teams are now
tied for third place, each having 10
wins against II defeats.
The Brandies won two as they
tangled with the Wines In a very
low scoring affair. Mike Koran was
the only respectable Brandy as he.
hit the wood for a $3.50 triple. Like
wise, Harry Conway was the only
decent Wine as he finished up with
a 324, despite his unhealthy first
game of IT. g9f,
