n many DOWIerS seeking pin
laurels ass he entered the Illinois
Alleys last night, but when he
emerged from the weekly session of
the Washington League, he was the

For, during his three-game visit. he
drilled the pocket for IL consecutive
strikes to become the only local
pin spiller to enter the Bowler's
Hall of Fame with a perfect 800
score in league play this season.
Frank, a son of the better-known
Charley Liebtag, has been perform
ing in pin circles for many years,
but last nights performance was the
greatest reward his speeding spher-
old has ever gained him. In action
with the Max Patton Cafe, the
ever-smiling Frank opened with a
1874 and after putting on his big ex-
hibition dropped to 155 as his fell
low bowlers snowered him with con-
gratulations.

His $40, coupled with a 61O from
Paul Cooper, boosted the Pattons to
2911 total and a double triumph
over the opposing H E. Schmitt
Insurance aggregation. The team,
with Franks 300 game as the spark
plug, tackled up 1049 centerpiece.
In the midst of the excitement
over Liebtag's game Ia other pas
timers of the league posted honor
series, Dad Hanna sweeping aside
all opposition with a 675 that
topped all loop rivals and earned
him city-wide solo hOnors of the
evening. John Blue and Jim Hurt
joined Hanna with totals of 631 and
625 that helped the Lieber Brewers
to 3OOS series, the best team total
posted in various leagues in action.
Hanna had games of 205, 223 and

the Brewers to their pinnacle and
shutout victory over Mccarthy
Furniture. Frank Black with $40
and Bill Rooster with 628 featured
for the losers.
League Leaders Win
The league-leading j. E. Kernel
Opticals, with Bob Wuensch at 624
and Art Baker at COL, protected their
top position through three-time
win over HooSier Opticals, who had
a 615 from Oliver Cross as it's best
solo count. Coca-Cola, featuring Al
Holman'S 616 was also three-time
winner, Board of Trade being the
victim. Oscar Kossman gave the
losers a 626, but when his mates
failed to lend their aid, victory was
out Of reach.
Ernie Heilman tossed his seasons
best series, 665, in leading the
Capitol Ice Co. to an odd-game de-
CiSi0n over Illinois Five. He had
games Of 25e, 204 and 203. Bob KEEL

a sos that proved a big help in its
sweep over Falls City Lager. Halt

ma was the top scorer for Pennzoils,

total of the evening, while the losers
used a 1915 for their lone win and
single game honOrs.
Though Cooks presented pair
of 600s, the Denbys breezed through
to an odd-game decision with John
Bentley's sos and Hank Shriver's
592 as their biggest counts. Owen
Fancher, pinch hitting for Lee Car
