Lad, II, Sturs as Eastern Branch
Wins j. S. Free Toss Crown

Francis, Dyer. aged II, is so small
that when he tosses a basket ball it
seems that something has detached
itself from balloon. but Francis,
who attends Elliott Junior High
School, last night was being hailed
as the champion midget" class free
tosser among 9,l37 youngsters who
competed in Nationwide contest
conducted by the Boys Clubs Of
America, Inc, the tabulation Of
which has just been completed.
Infinitesimal Francis looped in 4s
points in so pitches for his title
and thereby helped nightly In
bringing to the Eastern Branch Of
the Boys Club Of Washington the
all-classes club championship with
a total of 921 points out of a pos
ssble 1900. There were four classes.
Second in the competition, which
engaged nearly half Of the 300 clubs
of the national organization, was
Newark, N. j., with 875 points.
Eastern Branch, of which Charley
Reynolds, well known also as a box
ing referee, Is director, and Barney
Ross, the basket ball tutor with a
flock of other duties, made one of

Hubbard Sets Record
OF 100 Pin Games in
5 Hours, 70 Minutes

Knocking down duckpins at the
rate of minutes and IL seconds a
game, Bill Hubbard yesterday at
Northeast Temple established a
national time-linit record for 100
consecutive games in hours and
20 minutes.
The 200-pound Northeast bowler
cracked by Al minutes mark Of 6
hours and l minute set by John s.
Blick at Atlanta, Ga, in 1888.
However. Hubbard missed two
100-game average marks. In 1927
at Convention Hall Brad Mandley
competing in the Blick Marathon
posted an average of 1882 for q
District record while Gordon Nc
Ilwee at Winchester fired q national
record average of 124-46 for the
100-game endurance test in 1910.
To the amazement of spectators
who packed the Temple drives, Hub
bard showed little fatigue. He de-
veloped a blister on his thumb dur
ing the final 20 games and oddly
enough one popped out on his third
finger about half hour after he
had finished.
Hubbard's final game was 10. His
high was 1856 rolled in the 25th
game while his second high string
of 155 was posted in the 10th.
Next Saturday Stanley Enten
another Northeast pinman will at
tempt to break Hubbard's time
limit record.
