Congress- tenth annual tourna-
ment which opens tonight in
Norfolk, Va.
Not only have the Washingto-
mans the greatest number Of rep
resentatives with their 36 mems
and IA women'S clubs, but the
best chance of grabbing a major
portion of the glory if tradition
means anything. Mems teams
from the Washington area have
three titles, while they have done
even better in doubles, winning
four times, while WaShingtonian
also shared a title with a Hart
ford bowler one year.
-Four singles crowns have been
won by Washington men. A slight
weakness, however, has been
shown in all-eventS, only two Capt.
tolites winning.
The fair sex has made even a
better showing than their so-called
stronger SEX" garnering no less
than five team titles. The Wash
ington lasSieS have also won three
doubles championships and three
singles titles. In the all-eventS
they have proved much superior to
their washington brothers, win
ming no less than seven years, hav-
ing eight top-notchers during this
time, two District Misses tying IN
1929. The mixed doubles rolling
held only six times has found D. G.
and Hartford dividing honorS with
three each.
Norfolk, scene Of the tourna-
ment, will have 80 mems and nine
women's teams, with Baltimore
producing % mems and IL
women'S outfits, while Connecticut
is next with "a mems and 3
women's teams. Other bowlers are
coming from North Carolina,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia,

gia and Florida, Richmond, Va.
