Chase Co. Bo1Oling League Notes

pers) hung on three straight set- back on the champion team, the Tubers, who on paper should be go far ahead in the race they could be taking 1t easy, but as "Snappy" Joe Lovallo remarked: Every team in this league is tough, just when you figure you got easy pickings, then you wake up and find you've lost three games.
 With the organization of the Wa terbury Hockey League many of Jumping John Shaw's friends are looking forward to see John back on skates at his defense position. John ranked among the leaders whenever the subject of discussion turned to the Ice games. Not long ago John returned to his old love by playing roller polo in the Phoenix avenue armory, and as we watched him, we wished that we could have seen him when he was in his prime.
 Bossy Baldoni bowls in a very awkward manner, still his form doesn't hurt his average which to date is 116.4. Bossy holds the leagues high single of 163 also, and is responsible for the Noera outfit being on top.
 The question has been asked of us @ number of times about how many scores have been rolled over the 400 mark in this league this season. On the opening night Socks | Carlo rolled 405, the next week we saw Ducky Richmond with 426 which to date is high. Then @ few weeks ago Big Dan Cameron rolled | a 40l. On four other weeks the high | three was in the 390 class.
 Going into the last two boxes, some thirty pins down, the Rod Mill playboys came through in Dick | Merriwell finish. Billy Cregan pull ed @ double strike, Jimmy Bren- nan and Doc Kenneally each got a strike to overcome the Garage mems lead, and win the game by IA pins.
 Capt. Frankie Giacin of the Gar age team continues his fine bowling. Last week his scores of i42, 107, i$$ for a 349 total proved to be high for his team.
 The once combine turned in three first three game victories this season when they set back the last place Machine Shop outfit.
 Strikes were in order last week with fifty men participating. A to- tai of 60 strikes were made, while 294 spares were chalked up also.
 Jack Wolfe enjoyed banner night last week, rolling III, l26, 100 for @ 337 total.
 We look forward to @ great year in the maple toppling game, not only in our own league but all the Chase Go. inter-plant leagues which have just closed fine seasons. When one speaks of bowling they refer to the fine array of pinsters from Chase's. This remark is back ed up by the fact that sie Chase Go. tea mis leading the City Amateur League, while other Chase Co. employees are seen on other teams. Only last week Swede Larson from the factory rolled 4l4 while bowling on the Palace team. Ducky Richmond is a member of the Sacred Hearts, while others are on various teams.
 Reminiscing: The night Stanley March bowled Paddy Winston, when Paddy needed a mark to win, de- liver a perfect strike ball. The lights went out just as the ball struck the pins and when they were turned on, Stanley had the pin boy by the neck, bawling him out. while the crowd roared. .Clar- ence Hamilton bowling on No. 2 al- lay, about to deliver the ball when the pin boy stepped back on the al- ley. Hamy had already started to bowl when he saw the pin boy. twisted his wrist and sent the ball down No. alley for a perfect strike. P. s. You should have seen the expression on the fellows face on No. 3 who had just let the ball go toward the pins, the ball was about i've feet down the alley when bang all the pins were gone. Thanks to. Hamy. We recall the night Ted Roy heaved one onto the re. fatrf, rlgEawav fi,a hall xuar,k ktrn,,O,,
