Giant Bowling Show
Planned al Stars
Bond Tourney

What may turn out to be the
greatest bowling show IN Washing
ton history was in the making today
as part of The Stars War bond
tournament to be held December 4
to January 9, inclusive, at all metro
politan District alleys.
The show, at which bonds will be
sold, will be held at Convention
Hall, If obtainable, on December 10,
with all teams Of the mems and
women's District Leagues shooting
regular matches and national aces
battling in special contests. It will
be the first time that all teams
of the two crack leagues shot at the
same plant simultaneously. Conven-
ton Hall is one of the few maple
establishments in the country that
can seat sizable crowd.
BY December 10, Sunday, excite
ment in the pennant races of the two
leagues is expected to be at fever
pitch.
King Pin in Top Spot.
In the mems circuit last night,
despite 81 setback by Bethesda
Bowling Center's strong aggregation,
King Pin gained a one-game lead,
while the erstwhile tied Hi-Skors,
after whitewashing by Chevy
Chase Ice Palace, luckily shared
second place with Lafayette and
last years pennant-winning Clar-
endonS.
Firing top set of 42O, with 1853 his
best single, League Champion Ell
Geib was the big gun as Bethesda
won the first two games from King
Pin with 608 and 651 scores. Paul
Jarman capped 381 with 143 to
give King Pin the final tilt.
Led by Chick Darrs lat and Red
Megaw's 388, Ice Palace gave Hi
Skor the works with tallies of 624
and 1906. The victories moved
both Bethesda and Ice Palace into
an eighth-place tie at the head of
the second division.
Fortunately for both King Pin
and Hi-Skor, Lafayette was given a
81 trimming by Lucky Strike and
the pennant- contending Greenways
dropped the rubber game to North
east Temple. The Luckies won the
final two with 656 and 615 as Tony
Santini's 1910 and Fred Muir
phys 158 and 404 led the charge.
Ray Watson's 148-4O4 and Francis
Robertson's 1874 were the big blows
for Temple, while Ed Heller, sharing
set honors with 420, fired single of
1866 to give Greenway the middle
skirmish and a set total of 1855
against 1,847 for the winning Tenn
pleites.
Clarendon Wits Close One.
Clarendon nicked Anacostia Spill
way, 81, in the closest scoring match
of the season. Four pins decided all
three games, with Clarendon winning
the first, $50 to 578; the second, COS
to 604, while Spillway grabbed the
final. COS to 604. George Linkins, on
rampage these days, led Clarendon
with lat and Alt, while Eddie Keith
continued his brilliant pin spilling
for Spillway with top single of 1859
and set of 40e, while Pop Gus Places
last-box strike was potent wallop
in winning the final. Young Pete
Places, making his seasons debut,
fired a timely 152.
Arcadia trimmed Brookland, 2-1,
with Lou Pantos' 381 best. Harry
billiards 404 and Wally Burtons 1872
led Hyattsville to sweep over Colo
NAL Village.
The hot Ladies' District League
rennant scrap today found the
champion Hi-Skor still in front after
a 81 win from Anacostia Spillway
as Capt. Lorraine GULL led with 356.
Starring with 367, Isabel Reifen-
berg paced the runner-up Rendez-
vous quint to sweep over Red Cir
Gle with top scores of 585 and 1867.
Lafayette routed Adcadia, with new
conner Helen Downeys 131 and Jessie
Sacrey's 359 leading the attack.
King Pin stretched its winning
streak to IL straight with a 80 vic
tory over the strong Takoma aggre-
cation, while Bethesda Bowling Cen
ter turned back Columbia, 81. Ice
Palace took the odd game from
ROSSlyn,
