was received from Elmer II. Baum
garten. secretary of the parent body,
that the greatest entry in the his
tory of the annual classic had
flooded his Milwaukee office.
Because of the length of time it
will take the national headquar-
tiers to check the entries, Indian
apolis was granted an extern
sion of ten days in which to enlist
local aggregations. The city was IA
teams short of its 1000 quota as the
deadline for entries was reached at
midnight Saturday, but with the ex-
tension of time officials entertained
hopes of passing the goal The more
optimistic workers now aim at
1900 team entry for the city.
The phone call advising authori-
ties of the granting of the 10 days
of grace came as surprise, as it
is the first time in A. B. G. history
that the bar has been lifted after
the deadline was reac he'd. Accord
ing to Baumgarten, hundreds OF
teams that never have participated in
the great indoor classic have filed
entries, assuring the city of q rec
ord turnout during the six weeks
of the event.
Offices of the local corporation
will be open evenings until the
new deadline is reached and teams
who failed to register previously are
requested to get in touch with Of
ficials in charge.
A name long connected with the
tenpin game, but seldom linked
with tremendous scoring, made its
way to the top of the list of high
scorers in action on local alleys
last night.
Jack Colvin, who is usually busy
with his evenings work while other
FASTENERS are doing duty before the
elusive naples, took his weekly
night off and gave the Braden-
Sutphin Inks lift in their South
Side Business Mems matches. With
games of 246, 249' and 1872 he to-
tailed GIT, leading the Inkmen to
two-time victory over Newman's
CIV Beer. Frank Robishaw helped
the winners along with 603. Paul
Stemm made his first appearance
in several weeks and showed the
boys his ailing thumb was again
in shape by tossing a 654 for the
losers. Slim Hendricks was also in
form, giving the Newman's 612.
George Kahl and Phil Bisesi gave
Bake e. Vans DIX Service enough
help to gain a shutout victory over
Koch Furniture. KahPs 664 and BIZ
sesi's 606 boosted the D-X's to games
of 1908, 1913, 935 and 1856 total.
Honor counts were missing in the
remaining team matches, taken by
Stahlhut jewelers. and Tydol Gas
over Heidenreich Florists and Cliff
Meier Coal Co. by two-to-one
scores.
1t was only recently that Bill
Nichols rolled the initial 600 of his
pin career, but since that time he
has been tossing honor counts with
regularity. And now this fast-im-
proving pastimer seems headed for
the 700 class, for in last nights
Evangelical League matches at
Pritchett's he connected for 661,
through games of 225, 222 and 214,
to top all loop rivals.
Three other FASTENERS of the cir
cult passed the 600 mark, Bob
Hartman turning in 629, Frank
White a 621 and George Burk, GIL.
Yanks and Cubs made sweeps of
their series over Giants and Cardi-
mails, while Indians, Red Sox,
Pirates and Athletics won two
timers from White Sox, Dodgers,
Tigers and Senators.
Carl Hardin led his Refrigerators to a
triple victory over Picks in the Polar Ice
& Fuel Co. session at the. Central Alleys,
Herb Herb s ST. hit 500 to pace Cubes to
double win over Ice in the other team
clash of ne evening.
When Dick Nordholt and Harry Camp
bell fought it oat for individual honors
of the Reformed Church League at
Pritchett's, Emmanuel No. 1 benefited
from the two way battle with double
victory over Second Reformed No. 8. Nord-
holt with a ga and Campbell with 642
are both members of the Emmanuel
aggregation. Kistler's sol, the only other
honor count of the evening, also
proved a big help to his team. I'm
manuel No. 2, which blanked st. Pauls
Odd-game decisions decided all other
matches, Emmanuel No. 3. First Reformed

A 256 opener started Jess Smythe to a
