10 SPARES IN ROW
BRING 1872 GAME.
TO HOKIE SMITH

Hokie Smith, who in the last
two weeks let two sweepstakes
titles slip away from him, today
was still to be counted among the
bowlers who have achieved stand
out feats for the year.
A season record game Of 1872
by the Heurich Brewers crack
shooter marked a wild night of
maple spilling in the District
League.
Keeling off 10 spares in a row,
Hokie's whopper was the high
light in the Brewers 2-1 win
from Georgetown Recreation at
Columbia. In his eighth frame he
slid the ST break as if single
pin was his object.
Georgetown was off to a first
game win when Jack Talbert's
100 and Ed NaSh's 156 paced a
665 count. Then Smith cut loose.
Heurich won the next two with
$40 and 610 for 1880 set count.
Smiths three-game total was 423,
with Capt. Ed Blakeney's 399
backing it up. Georgetown was
over the 1900 for the set.
MURPHY ROLLS 43S
Pounding out 1888, the second
highest team set of the season,
Arcadia fairly swamped Regal
Neon Sign with games Of 626, 672
and $40. Fred Murphy was tops
with 438 with Andy GleeSon's 406
and Ed Cleary's 392 collaborating.
Cliff Hollis shot an even 400 for
the Royals, who counted 1888 for
their three games.
Down at Lucky Strike, Eddie
Espey prevented Lucky Strike
from Smearing his Convention
Hall outfit by banging out 172 for
his first game before the LuckieS
went to town with counts of 633
and 632 when Howard Parsons
clouted for 142 and 143 and Ray
Ward backed up his 388 set with
144-372.

NEW YORK, Feb. Is G.N.S0. E.
Only the Dodgers could have gath
cred together so strange a collec-
ton of ball players as Burleigh
Grimes will unveil this season.
Old Iron Whiskers will have a
couple of 40-year-old outfielderS
and pitcher or two Of the same
venerable vintage; one two-ton
catcher and another who saw his
best days many years ago, some
fading stars and a rare assortment
of bushers.
Take them all together, mix
we'll, and they probably add up
to about sixth place in the final
standings.
Despite their age and previous
condition of servitude, or maybe
because Of those very two things,
they are a better club than the
one that drove Flatbush fans into
a frenzy last summer. They are
better if for no other reason than
that they could not possibly be
worse.
AGE HANDICAP
If all the old-timers on hand
could shed even 10 years I would
not hesitate to pick them to win
the pennant but, unfortunately for
Grimes and Brooklyn, this cannot
be done, even with mirrors.
For instance, a pitching staff
composed Of Freddy FitzSimmons,
Waite Hoyt, Fred Frankhouse and
Jim Lindsey-at their peak-pluS
the still wonderful Van Mungo,
would top any other staff in the
league today. AS it is, the club
will have to depend on Mungo,
Boucher and Hamlin with the old
boys picking their spots.
The infield will be a 1000 per
cent better this year with Leo
Duroeher, still great ball player,
at short, Lavagetto at third, prob
0U1y NOoSd1d dU SCCO44u d11u
Buddy HaSSett at first. That's
truly a professional infield.
ANCIENT OUTFIELD
Heaven only knows what the
outfield may look like. On some
days, it may look like cross sec
ton Of the old mems home with
Heinie Manush and Kiki Cuyler
parading around as well as their
creaking old bones will allow
them. At that, I'd rather have
that pair out there as long as
they can stand up than some of
the bushers the scouts have
dragged in.
If Rosen is stuck in center to
help out, the old birds may make
the club look good until they grow
too tired.
Well, there it is, and how do you
like it? Let's give 'em sixth place
and duck before irate Philly and
Boston fans grab us.

congenial they decided to spend
the better part of their vacation
here.
Arriving last Wednesday, they

had to leave this delightful city
and the courteous and kind peo-
pie they met during their visit.
