ATLANTA, Ga, April 21.-After a
day of acclimating themselves to
Atlanta's warm weather, the WASH
ington contingent competing in the
14th annual national tournament
at Bhck's Bowling Center, finally
found themselves and started post
ing scores that claimed attention
and, in several instances, topped
current lists. But with a week more
of play in which the strong Virginia
and Connecticut experts are certain
to be heard from, nothing can be
definite with the possible exception
of Julian Yesterdays splendid 459
set in the singles, which included a
national tournament record game
of 201.
The Rendezvous girls of Tad
Howard earned place in the spot
light with their sterling play in the
women's team event in which they
totaled 1861 to top the runner-up
Popular Club girls of Baltimore by
81 pins. The quintet, comprising
Ida Weinberg, Ann Behan, Marian
Boots" Workman, Irene Scott and
Margaret Lynn, had games of SIP
588-531 for a total of 1861 which
placed them in the first position
over some of the strongest of Wash.
ington and Baltimore teams.
Glory for Washington.
Additional glory was gained for
Washington when Jimmy Moore's
King Pin boys, John CLANCY, Bill
Beatty. Bill Miller, Lindsay Stott
and Bob Miciotto, came through
with an 1913 set to total Il pins
more than the Recreation Park Circle
quintet of Baltimore. The set was
composed of games of 605-597-
Gil. Herb Sachs famed Del Rios at
the moment are in third place with
1,798 total. Recreation Park
Circles of Baltimore are second with
1899.
Astor Clarke totaled 403 In the
mems singles to tie for fourth place
with Sam Spencer, Baltimore.
One of the surprises from WASH
ington point of view was the fine
bowling of Evelyn Windsor, Arcadia,
and Boots Workman, Rendezvous,
when they teamed together in the
women's doubles event, totaling 668
to place, but two sticks behind the
leaders, E. Bassford-Drusilla Kel-
lum, Baltimore. In the women's
team events two more Washington
quintets placed among the first five
when the King Pins and Bob David
sons Anacostia SpillWays rolled $50
and 1885, respectively.
Two more Washington women
placed high in the singles when
Margie Smith counted 1863 and bru-
nette Mildred Peacock 365 to finish
second and third, respectively.
