A game of 1854 and a set of 449
are not too common with such a
sterling bowler as Jack Gooding
but it is doubtful if he was half as
happy as Auggie Noack when the
latter rolled 402 at the Lucky Strike
last night in the Graphic Arts
League for his first 4O0 set in more
than 25 years of rolling For nearly
two decades Noack has been league
scorer for the printing trades boWlers.

son record which enabled the cham
plon Judd & Detweilers to trample
the runner-up National Capital

1873.

the Interdepartmental Mixed League
with a record set of $50. Her games

over the East Siders.
