pins he has knocked down in
that game, prior to being dis
qualified. If no substitute is
available to take the place of
the player removed, the balance
of the players on the team shall
complete the game or series
without the services of the ao-
sentee or substitute.
How Fouls are Recorded
When foul is committed it
shall be recorded as ball bowl
ed by the player, and any pins
bowled down or displaced by
that ball shall not count and
must be respected at once. Where
the player fouls upon the de-
livery of the first ball of frame,
it shall be scored according to
the results of the second ball
boWled. If he knocks down all
the pins with his second bal
after foullng with the first, 1t
shall be scored as spare. Where
less than ten pins are knocked
down on the second ball after a
foul on the first, it shall be
scored as an error. In case the
foul is made when the player de-
liverS his second ball of a frame,
it shall in all instances be scored
as an error, and only those pins
bowled down when delivering
the first ball shall count.
Duties of Foul Judge
The first duty of a foul judge
is to carry with him when on
duty a copy of the latest Ameri-
can Bowling Congress rule book.

Employ One Qualified

The American Bowling Con-
gress cannot stress too much the
seriousness of employing none
but intelligent and qualified in
dividuals to act as foul judges
in all sanctioned league and
tournament competition.
While the responsibility of
employing competent foul
Judge lies directly with the
bowling proprietor, many of
whom will fail to give this in
dividual the proper instruction
before he engages in this work,
the league and tournament Of
ficials should take the precau-
ito to contact the foul judge TO
determine whether that indi-
vidual understands all of the
provisions of the foul rule and
can determine all types of fouls.
If it can be conveyed to that in
dividual the Importance of dis
work as foul judge, we may be
more certain that the average
bowler on whom a foul is called,
will seldom questio his decision.
No foul judge is infallible, but
if only those are selected who
have studied the definition of d
foul and the duties of foul
Judge. and who are conscien-
tious, mistakes in decisions can
easily be avoided.
He shall be the sole judge on all
such matters, and be required
to make an immediate decision
after any apparent violation. He

NEW YORK, May g. R -
Manager Joe Mccarthy resumed
active leadership of his world
champion New York Yankees to-
day after a months absence be-
cause of illness by observing, IF

did, we'll have the pennant in the

While Marse Joe was holding
forth in the Yanks' downtown head
quarters, Coach Fletcher was send
ing the players through a drill at
the stadium in preparation for to-
morrow's first intersectional Sc
,ries. The champs have won six
straight and are only game and
a half behind leading st. Louis.
Detroit comes in to play tn
Yanks as the majors swing back
into action after a two-day travel
lnterlude with Cleveland at Boston
and Chicago at Philadelphia in 9TH
er American League day games.
Washington opens its night season
with St. Louis. Every home game
OF the Senators from tomorrow to
Sept. II, with the exception of Sum
days and holidays. will be played
after dark.
Two "owl'' gamec are included
in the National chart with Boston
at Pittsburgh and New York at
Cincinnati under the arcs. In the
afternoon Brooklyn plays at St.
Louis and Philadelphia at Chica-
go. ,..
It will be the first games be-
tween the East and West of the
majors and so will be watched
with special attention by fans who
have been led to believe the West
ern clubs hold the balance of pow
er in the National and the Yanks,
Washington and St. Louis in the
American.
Mccarthy refused to make any
observation on the races except to
agree that the Browns have been
setting fancy pace.
Mike Milosevich, rookie short
stop who has been credited with
steadying the club, will remain in
the lineup with no immediate
changes expected. Mccarthy indi-
Gated some decision on the four
