A drama probably unique in the
history of duckpins marked the
leagues closing contests. BY tele-
phone, Rosslyn's team, engaged at
Richmond with the Richmond quint,
swapped reports with the Baltimor-
cans, embattled with Nortolk's strong
team at Norfolk.
Both leaders scored clean sweeps,
but Rosslyn finished first, whereupon
Statistician Caldwell, present at the
Richmond match, came up with the
announcement that Baltimore needed
not only victory in the final game,
but a score of at least 563, to win the
pennant on total sticks.

when the word came from Nor
folk that Baltimore, though winning
the third game, had rolled only $50.
The next instant, however. they
were crestfallen-when came the ad-
ditional information that an error OF
four pins had been made against Bal
timore in the first game.
In that case" revised Caldwell,
"Rosslyn loses by two pins"
And in that case" groaned tiny
Evelyn Ellis of Rosslyn, I'm I'LL"
Seldom has the pressure been ap-
piled as tightly on a bowling team as
on Rosslyns girls when they started
their last match. And more de-
termined try for victory probably
never was made by any group OF
bowlers of either sex. Even if they
won three games a record set might
be necessary to win the pennant.
They got the record-an all-time
South Atlantic mark of 1,785-and it
was a performance, all things con-
sidered, nothing short of magnificent
Lorraine, of All People!
PUT a pennant was not all the
Rosslyns missed, provided the
present statistics are correct.
BY that same margin of two sticks
they blew the national record for q
seasons league average for girls. Bal
timore Is credited with $685. and
Rosslyn with 1854.

Washington, March 16.-(AP)- A
possibility that congressional tax

"Of course, if the March Is income
tax returns show very great in
crease over estimates, that would help
a lot"
The subcommittee, he told report
ers, spent two hours this morning
struggling over the question of how
to collect income taxes from foreign
ers on their dividends on stock in
American corporations. No decision
was reached. He added that the sub
committee expected to conclude it's re-
venue hearings this week.
Hill said estimates for the windfall
tax yield varied and eff we get $780,
100000, it will help some" The sub
committee is not too optimistic" he
said, about getting as much as $780,
100000, even if the highest legal tax
is imposed to recapture refunded OF
