Until Dawn, They 60

While there are 752 teams
amounting 10 $3.50 employees
Walsh estimates there are actu-
ally ASA Chrysler league
bowlers, counting substitutes
being used this season more
than ever before. The l0-team
Bomber loop of the DeSoto-
Warren office carries u subs
because of irregular working
hours.
Walsh will tell you about one
group Of spillers whose Shift
ends at midnight and bowling
begins in the early hours of the
morning. The men antetup an
extra quarter and report for
bowling with their wives. or
Sweethearts. When they finish
rolling they dance and enjoy
themselves until dawn. often
later.
The pride and JOY of the
Chrysler bowlers is their Inter-
Plant league. composed of 10
teams of their higher average
men. II there is a stronger in
dustrial circuit in the country
than this one we have yet 10
hear about il. Only last sea-
son an all-star group from this
league defeated Stroh's, ma
tional match game champions.

ONLY BEGINNING

In taking the first weekend for
1872 teams, Walsh made ii known
/ IL was only the beginning. In his
organization he has SOC mems
teams and he hopes 10 have most
of them in there winging away for
the FIVE championships.
Assisting Walsh TO that goal
will be such fine plant recreation
directors as Bill Ramsey of High
land Park, Norm Williams of
/ Mound Road. Howard Thomas of
/ Dodge Main, Leon Cherry" Wis
niewski of Plymouth, Harry Hart
of Forge, James Rowe of DeSoto-
I Wyoming, Wallace Scott of De-
Soto-Warren, Harry Apple of JEFF
ferson, Joe Agnitch of Kercheval.
Ed Stevens of Tank Arsenal, Char
ley Geiger of Amplex and Bill
Brady of Marysville.
ChrySler's reservation, however,
was not the first. That honor
went to George Mcclellan, who
captained t'arris Bros. TO the
Glass r championship last year on
a 1924. Mcclellan heads the
Young team this season and will
compete in Class A. His entry
was received informally Nov I
He will make it official this week
RULES THE SAME
Rules and regulations of the
tournament are the same as last
season, five classes according to
average, And, speaking of aver
ages. popularity of this event can
be traced to the fact il caters 10
the lower average bowler, and
was the first that ever did.
There will still be the 500. So
and $50 first three prizes in each
of the five classes. A total of
1877 teams competed last season
and a prize fund of $S,625 was
split up. Judging from the in
creased interest in bowling this
season that prize melon should be
greater.
There is only one slight change
The entry fee of SIS per team re-
mains the same, with bowling fees
increased from 81 TO SIPS per
man, or S6,25 per team. And
this is important in the event a
federal tax is levied by the u. S.
government on bowling charges
that tax will be paid by the
bowler We trust that viii not
