of this morning toiled the Sched-
ule and Classification Committee
of the Washington City Duckpin
Association, wrestling with the great
est lot of entries ever turned in for
District bowling tournament.
1t will open a week from next Tues
day on the slicked-up drives Of the
Arcadia, and continue we'll into May.
With many leagues yet to be heard
from, Arville Ebersole, association Sec
retary, last night estimated the total
of teams would reach 400.
This does not mean, however, that
400 teams actually will compete. OF
328 that entered last year, for instance,
II were scratched.
That" said Ebersole, "was a nor
NAL shrinkage, but I have hunch
that this time we won't lose more
than so. I figure that approximately
100 more teams than last year will
shoot"
Although the tournament will be
held at the Arcadia, temporary head
quarters have been established by the
w. C. D. A. at Convention Hall, where
accommodations for the big clerical
job are ideal. Heading the Schedule
and Classification Committee is Lon
ME Krauss, who has been an assiduous
worker in such jobs ever since the
w. C. D. A. was organized. Toiling
with him are o. H. P. Scott, Charley
Bell. Convention Hall manager; Rena

Joe Harrison missed an opportunity
to tie the greatest record ever made
in the District League when, on the
final night of the season, the Occiden-
tai anchor failed to catch Joe Freschi
of Grand Central Valet in average.
Had Harrison succeeded he would have
become the second bowler to lead the
crack league for three straight sea-
sons, the other being Harry Krauss,
who ruled from 1918 to 1921.
Freschi, shooting far below his
average of 122-63 for 70 games, left
the gate wide open for Harrison, but
doughty Joe, usually so proficient when
the pressure is on, on this occasion
was downright pathetic. Although
performing at the hall on his favorite
drives, he marked up his lowest set
of the SeaSOn-30O.
