The other half of the girls scor-
ing punch is supplied nearly even

date.
Grizzliette manager Louise Rit-
ter reports that in going back
through the book to get at all the
scorers she finds that Fay Fried
man and Betty Sincoe have tai
lied 8 points apiece. Lois Forres-
ter, now excellent guard duty, has
scored points.
Secretary Eddie Eynon, of the
Washington Senators Baseball

Games To Girls
And Men Teachers

The High School-Faculty games
went no different than the eight
or nine previously played double
headers, to wit: boys lose and girls
win, by 80 to 26 and 26-11,
respectively.
The first game was a walk-a-
way for the girls. They piled up
an 18 to 6 score by half time and
coasted home with the second
team playing more than they are
accustomed.
Both Coaches High
The girls coach, Rose Nudo,
was high scorer against them,
looping the hoop for seven points.
Ora Donoghue, Fay Friedman and
Marion Benson were high for the
Varsity. Betty Simcoe played well
and contributed a points.
Mary Engstrom, of the losers,
Florence Raum and Marian Ball
did clever guard duty in the
fracas.
IL Points for Eshbaugh
Mahlon Eshbaugh tied his coach
for high scoring honors in the
second game with points. Young
Mahlon's were by way of half a
dozen fiips from the floor while
Coach Goldfaden coupled two
freebies with his 5 from the floor.
Pete Labukas also had success
sful shots for 10 points and
second high honors and Paul
Barnhart showed home 7 to ac-
count for all of the male faculty's
tallies save a lone free shot by
Sheldon.
Jim Scordellis, Donnie Wolfe
and Allan Gillen backed up Esh-
baugh with not quite enough
points to win, 4, and 3 respec-
lively.

Outlaws Win 14th,
Tie For High Set;
Bowman Rolls 385

The Greenbelt Athletic Club
Bowling Leagues Outlaws have
swept four matches in as many
weeks since taking two out of
three from the Dodgers five weeks
ago, making a neat record of IA
wins in the last Is games. Their
victim of February 16 was the
American Legion.
Beat Legion. Tie Mark
In conquering the Legion the
lawless lads turned on the steam
and tied the formers high team
set mark at 1862. Frank Last
ner's creditable 349 set was shad-
ed by the efforts of Al Scheaffer
and Ben Goldfaden, who rolled
home BAT sets to aid the winning
cause. Lloyd McEwen was not up
to his high class standard but
was spelled nicely by the above
pair.
Corner Del struck back at the
Eagles, with Al Bowman in the
saddle, to cop two games and a
measure of vengeane acnd leave
the Eagles but two games in front
of the marauding Outlaws.
Brownie" put together games of
lat, 106 and 1872 for a 1856 set,
good enough to tie Jim Wolfe's
long-standing high set mark re-
Gently topped by Lloyd MacEwen
by pin.
Jim Mathers made the Com
mandos "holler uncle" with $50
set as his Co-Opers snatched
three games from the erstwhile
second place holders to bring their
own record back to the 800 mark.
Barons Are Sly
While so much fuss has been
stirred upj over the creditable
performance of the Eagles, Out
laws and the rest of the upper
crust the Barons have been quiet
ly going along winning games to
the extent that they are now in
9Th place.
Five weeks ago, when the Out
laws started their spectacular
spree, LIl6 DdIOlo "ClC III AooO
place! Eddie Timmons' 351 set
aided their cause against the
Dodgers this time.
Frank Lastner's and Al Bow
mans good night edged them
ahead of Harold Estes and just
back of Lloyd MacEwen in the
league averages. Lastner also
went ahead of the list in the mat
ter of spares with 1873 and is but
one strike from the lead in that
department.
Gabfest
The league is going to hold a
membership meeting at the club
house on Friday night, February
26. Plans for the bowling party
will be discussed. The rule pro-
hibiting teams from adding men
to their rosters after the start of
the second half will be the subject
of much debate. Reason for such
is the fact that so many men have
left and are leaving Greenbelt
due to the war crisis.
