l. Sunday morning quarter
backs, may have left your gridiron ad-
diets saddened, but to the bowling
readers of The Star it will prove to
be big break for which they have
been long patient.
Forced, by the tales OF the foot
ball world, to reduce those very inter-
esting statistics Of league standings,
averages, high games, etc. to para
graph or two of the most pertinent
facts, We editor now will be able not
only to run such statistics in detailed
form, but to devote this column to
that purpose for which it was pri-
marily designed-the human side of
the alleys"
Too many choice bits of gos-
sip have gone untold through
lack of space, but they promise
to be revealed from now on.
In addition TO "Spilling the Pins, >"
we'll endeavor to spill the dope, chat
ter, or whatever goes on away from
the all-important score sheet.
So, for the last time, on with the
literary averages" and may you find
what you are looking for in the sue
ceeding paragraphs.
WITH the only team in the league
w whose every member is averag-
ing over 103, it is little wonder that
Rosslyn has such commanding lead
in the Ladies' District loop. Evelyn
Ellis 112-17 is tops, but Blanche
Wootton is averaging 1l0-18; Lucy
Rose, 1912; Gladys Lynn, 105-1s.
and Rena Levy, 103-l8. And Rosslyn
is six full games ahead of the second
place Lucky Strike and National Beer
laSsies.
Miss Ellis 112 average, incidental
ly, is tops for the league, with only
three other girls over ITO, her own
team-mate, Mrs. Wootton, Lorraine
Guilli of Lucky Strike, and Margaret
Lynn of Highway Engineering. both

Kann's, defending champion
of the Department store

TIED for second place at the start
Of the match, City Bank swept
the set with National Savings & Trust
to take undisputed possession Of the
runner-up post in the Bankers

Banks favor, however, was the fact
that while it was winning three,

family rebellion on its hands with
that banks second team rising to
smack its higher brethren for two
games As a result, City Bank today
