The weekly high single for last week was taken by Phil Coppetto with score of i43. He also came through with good games in the other two contests hitting l26 and l19.
 Warren Cooke came back to his old time form in the first and third games of his match with Joe Harpin and knocked off these two games by large enough scores to also cop pinfall, Ed Daunais' 124 single in the second contest saved this one point for Harpin.
 What is believed to believe the first triple strike of the season was made by Mort Connor last week, which gave him 0 l42 score. Some of the glory was taken away how ever, when Phil Coppetto finished a moment later in the same match with his 143 single. Phil's 388 pin- fall was overcome, however, by the good work of Flanagan and Connor.
 Mike Whelan came back strong after his team had lost the first game and hit IA and ll2 in the last two games to put his team ahead in both these games and also enable them to take extra point for pin fall.
 The Lumbermen without the ser- vices of their captain had very little difficulty in knocking off the School Masters for four points. John Sa- vino playing the leading role.
 Dick Hyland and Ed. Mclean went strong for the Powermen last week and were the big factors in their teams three point win. A strong finish by Frank Keliher en- abled the Chase entry to take the second game.
 For the first time in several weeks the Clockmen lost 8, majority of their games, Verriker taking three points. However, this loss did not affect their hold on first place to any extent. Joe Dinova's 342 pin fall was the deciding factor.
 Bill Dunleavy came through in great style last week, knocking of three big games which sewed up all four points against Dr. Cottiero.
 Tn battle between the two low- est averaged teams in the league, Jack York and his mates came through strong in all four matches to beat out the Tiremen.
 Armand Blanchard proved to be a little too much for the Reilly team last week and his 358 pinfall set- tied three points in his teams fa- v0r. Jack Reilly's eight fill strike in the ninth box of the first game was the margin by which they took their lone point.
 4 spare by George Hayes In the ninth box proved to be a life saver for the stanton team as it gave them their only point of the night, by a small margin Of two pins. Capt. Cavanaugh and Jim McMah0n both hit 330 10 lead their team.
