One has only to look at the above teams standing to see that this Chase league is all tied up ill a knot as far as the standings show. With only nine points separating first and ninth place and nine more weeks to go, well it's just toss up as to who will come out on top when the league closes. More power to our handicap system.
 Our good friend Ducky (What's my average) Richmond is being kidded about that hand lotion he is using every week to improve his bowling. Years ago the boys bowled without bowling shoes, then we saw the size of the ball and pin made larger, as the result large scores were being hit by the average bowler, and now comes along fellow who's try ing to start the boys in to use 8 prepared hand lotion, which in his estimation helps to roll big games. Imagine Ducky Raymond on the corner with one of those keroSine lamps and home made stand dem- onstrating his famous hand lotion guaranteed to help the bowlers aver age by ten pins.
 We wonder where Duke Muldoon that famous athlete, is. Duke, ill his five years at the Chase Go. played many important parts in the sports circles. We remember the night that three City Amateur league managers were up at the Fulton park diamond fighting to sign him up. Duke was the classiest third baseman seen in these parts and many of the amateur teams that year needed hot corner guardians. Then we remember the night that the Red Mill used Mul 70 bowl against the Office. He spilled the naples in fine fashion, too.
 our hats off to Eddie Coughlin of the Office team who last week, bowl ing against the Blessed Sacraments certainly helped his St. Thomas teammates to win the match when he rolled three very good games of .cG-157-144 for a All total. We hear that his captain, John Shaw, is going to let Eddie roll in anchor position this week because of his fine bowling.
 Frank Horrigan and Dicky Rich mond of the Garage team, in the secol@ game last week had fine chances to set up a new league high single. Horrigan with 146 missed three easy spares. then Richmond

that every North Carolina Congress
m an is opposed to the Ludlow resolu-
ton requiring a vote of the people be-
fore any declaration of war by the
United States will probably not he un-
welcome to Mrs. Helen Robertson
Wohl, who has been considering a
race for the United States Senate for
some time.
Mrs. Wohl, Quaker, is conscien-
tiously opposed to war in any form
and is a firm advocate of the Ludlow
resolution. On the other hand she
has been looking for an issue upon
which to make the senate campaign
and the peace proposal may give her
lust exactly the sort Of plank she
would like to stand on.
Against Charlie Johnson, Mrs. Wohl
pclled more than 100000 votes in the
State Treasurer's race of 1886. She
probably hasn't a chance in several
million of beating Bob Reynolds or
Frank Hancock, for that matter, but
her entrance into the race would
make a lively time.
In his radio address reporting on
his stewardship as Governor of North
Carolina for a full year, Governor
Hoev listed as one of the accomplish
ments of his administration Distinct
advance in prison supervision and
care"
He can probably get quite an. argu-
ment over that from those who do not
like the recent shakeup in medical
personnel at Central Prison here.
The contention of this group is that
DR.. Coleman was fired as regular pri-
son doctor because he voted for Nc
Donald and because a fellow towns
man of Highway Commissioner Chair
man Dunlap needed taking care Of
Also they insisted, DR.. Ben Lawrence
was made consultant surgeon not by
reason of any outstanding ability as
physician, but because of his political
activity.
