In-und-Out Shooter
Has Provided Other
Sensational Feuts
BY ROD THOMAS.


Bill Gartrell, whose sensational
performances have made bowling
history, yesterday gained the mems
lead in The Stars War Bond bowl
ing tournament, which ends to-
night, with set of 492 at the Co.
lumbia, which he manages.
Gartrell, an ungainly fellow
standing inches over 6 feet, but
weighing 140 pounds, chalked up
games of 119, 1870 and 135 for a
set OF 444 to which was added a
handicap Of 48 pins based on a
liz league average against mems
scratch of 1913.
GartreH Is member of the 'Mer-
chants League which shoots at the
Lafayette and a mixed doubles
league which holds forth at the
King Pin. For convenience he chose
the plant he bosses for his Star
tournament effort, having for COM
pany T. H. Brewer. C. A. Saylor and
w. H. Webster, whose scores were
negligible.
Rolls Game of 247.
In the spring of 1941, Gartrell shot
the biggest duckpin game on record
-247-but received no official rec
ignition because the score was made
in informal competition. Prior to
that, however,-in the fall of 1893
he hung up an all-time record for
Washington with game of 2l0 in
the Sanico League at Convention
Hall. In midwinter of 1912 he beat
this by six pins in the Harry Burtner
Handicap at Convention Hall and
in so doing became the first Wash
ington bowler to score seven con-
secutive strikes under regulation
conditions.
In his 100 string yesterday, Gar
trell failed to mark in only one
frame. the eighth, in which he
knocked down nine sticks. He spared
through the first four boxes, struck
in the fifth and sixth, spared in the
seventh and one-balled the ninth.
The 1870 was the highest game re-
corded in the current tournament.
Gartrell rolls a ball with APP
parently little on it," but when it
finds the range strange things occur,
only a few of his best games being
recorded here. 1t is difficult to re-
concile his tremendous scores with
an average of 112.
