Evening star., 1939-03-15
Score Is Third Best Y
Ever Complied on
District Drives
Also Has 43O Set to Gain
Two AII-Time Records
For P. W. A. League

A star of the first rank when he
was helping Curb Cafe and Conven-
ton Hall to win District League PEN
nants back in the bowling era Of AL
Work, Glenn Wolstenholme, George
Friend, Joe Twomey, Max Rosenberg
and Hap Burtner, Joe Mulroe rose TO
his greatest heights out on the
Chevy Chase alleys last night when
he banged out game of 205, the
second highest rolled over District
drives this season and the third
highest ever posted here.
Recounting his achievement today
that gave him two all-time records
for the P. w. A. League, including a
430 set, Mulroe marked in his first
nine frames and missed in his last
for fiat nine. He started with a
triple-header strike, spared in the
next four frames and struck in his
eighth and ninth frames.
Rolls on Is Balls.
Oddly enough, Mulroe rolled two
less balls than Tom Galleher of the
Navy Department League, who es-
tablished an all-time record of 210
at the Arcadia on January 30. Null
roe used only 16 against 18 for GAL
leher.
Galleher also made nine marks,
five strikes and four spares, but he
started with fiat 10 in his first
frame and the difference in the
number of balls used came in the
final frame, when he rolled off on
strike. Only u balls are required to
-oll perfect score of 300.
Tony De Fino's 208 rolled at the
Arcadia in 1887 is the only other
league game to top Mulroes feat.
Mulroe missing the head pin in
the final frame left pins No. and
3 standing.
