Income Tax League
When Ed Blakeney defends his
Julian yesterday Sweepstakes title
at the Highland alleys in Baltimore
Sunday, his two most potent foes
likely will be Columbia District
League teammates, Hokie Smith and
Tony Santini.
Smith will be shooting for his
fourth sweepstakes title and the
$3.50 top prize would move him in
front of Santini, as the country's
leading money shooter of the sea-
son. Santini is after his third
championship.
Probably no other three boWlers
ever before have won more sweep
stakes over a three-year period than
this trio. There hardly has been
an event in the last two seasons IN
which one of them hasn't been the
defending champion. Most of the
time it has been case OF succeeding
one another as winners.
Twice last season Smith succeeded
Blakeney as champion in the Pop
Wolfe and the New Recreation.
Blakeney was the defending title
holder when Santini won the Camp
bell classic early this season. San
TIM then shared the Dixie title from
Smith. To square matters Smith
succeeded Santini as champion OF
the Ray Won Dreele.
Great Finish Brings Record.
A whirlwind start and finish in his
second game accounted for Ia
McVay's all-time record of 1872 in
the Income Tax Unit League. The
Miscellaneous Tax Unit shooter fired
a triple-header strike in his first
three boxes at the Lucky Strike and
after a strike in his sixth frame,
spared in the ninth and struck twice
in the 10th. His 1872 Melted him
season set mark of 401 and his M.
T. U. team a new high of 634. Spe-
cial Advisory maintained its one
game lead with a tWo-one win from
Records No. l, while Executives de-
feated Deputy Commissioners to
take second place.
An all-time record set of 438 and
q season high game of 1853 were
posted by Harry Crow in the Mems
Lutheran Church League at the
Arcadia.
With 361 Kenneth Finn paced the
Usage teams two-one win from Red
bud in the Agriculture Forest Service
Mixed League.
Cellarites Trim Leaders.
Paced by Mary Hanagan's top set
of 342, the runner-up st. Gabriel'S
won two games from L. A. A. o. H.
In the Catholic Ladies League. The
last-place St. Anthony's B team
trimmed the leading st. Francis
quint two-one. Agnes Lyans' near
record 140 gave Holy Comforter A
the odd game from TIL Saints.
