Once rivals in the bowling bus

to give Alexandria a modern duck
pin plant.

the vicinity of the George WASH

establishment near the Lee high

procure the land they sought, the

moguls turned their eyes in the
direction of Alexandria.
When the new drives are COM

Davis and Arbaugh control of go

establishment in the Capital area
At present Arbaugh is owner of the
24-alley Silver Spring plant, while
Davis is boss of IL drives at Rosslyn
