Il many bowlers seeking pin
laurels as he entered the Illinois
Alleys last night, but when he
emerged from the weekly session of
the Washington League, he was the
biggest hero of the current season.
For, during his three-game visit, he
drilled the pocket for II consecutive
strikes to become the only local
pin spiller to enter the Bowler's
Hall Of Fame with a perfect 300
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 from all sides.
His $40, coupled with 610 from
Paul Cooper boosted the Pattons to
a 2911 total and 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 all 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 6S1 and
625 that helped the Lieber Brewers
to a 3008 series, the best team total
posted in various leagues in action.
Hanna had games of 205, 223 and
247 for his bullying series, while
counts of 952, 1908 and 1862 elevated
the Brewers to their pinnacle and
shutout victory over Mccarthy
Furniture. Frank Black with GAO
and Bill Rooster with 628 featured
for the losers.
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 GIG, was also a three time
winner, Board of Trade being the
victim. Oscar Kossman gave the
losers 626, but when his mates
failed to lend their aid, victory was
out of reach.
Ernie Holman tossed his seasons
best series, 665, in leading the
Capitol Ice Co. to an odd game de-
cision over Illinois Five. He had
games of 25S, 2O4 and 203. Bob KeI-
ley provided Hy- Red Gasoline with
a COS that proved a big help in its
sweep over Falls City Lager. Halt
ing right on the 600 line, Bob Haags-
ma was the top scorer for Pennzoils,
who nabbed a pair of victories over
GrunOws.

beating from Chas. DENLY Cigars,
one the weaker aggregations of the
loop. No shutout victories were reg

cided over the two-to-one route.

solo series, led Fall City Hi-brus to
their two victories over Lieber
Layers, who had Percy Henry's 607
as their best count. The winners
totaled 2939, which was high team
total of the evening, while the losers
used a 1915 for their lone win and
high single game honors.
