PROVIDENCE, r. l., April 15.-
.Washington's famed Lorraine GULL
with 404 in singles and the Capitals
King Pin women's team with a
score Of 1887 today were holding
their leads in the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress championships
after Connecticut men and women
last night made a smashing raid on
first places.
Even Miss GULL didn't escape the
terrific maple spilling of the Nut
meggers as Jean Hoyt of Norwalk,
Conn, tied with her for the Wom-
ems all-events lead. The unheralded
Connecticut lass bowled 1886 in sin
giles, 373 in doubles and 379 with the
Star Laundry team to deadlock the
country's No. l woman duckpinner
who previously had held first place
with 1886 in doubles, 348 in team
after her brilliant 404 in singles.
Earle Kreuger of Hartford started
the fireworks for the Connecticut
men by taking the lead from
Charley Dinnigan of Lowell, Mass,
with 46l. But his big score stood
less than an hour when Charley
Kebart of New Haven flashed ahead
with All. Kreuger's games were 12O,
Ito and I'll. Kebart's strings were
179, second high turnament single,
l55 and 137.
Cleans 26 Consecutive Frames.
kebart in his sensational streak
cleaned the alleys of every pin for
26 successive boxes after missing his
only stick in the fourth box of the
first game. He made 81 marks, irY-
Guiding seven strikes.
. The New Haven twosome of
Gladys Bohn and Leona Krahl shot
into the Womens doubles lead with
TIL, replacing the Burlington (Vt.)
combination of Lillian Moreau and
Lillian Humphreys who held the top
spot one day with 703
Two Hartford mems teams gained
first places as CLOVIS Restaurant,
composed of Blue Ribbon bowlers,
took the lead in the championship
division with 1,943 and the United
Diner crew moved on top in the
booster class with 1878.
Although Washington men failed
to produce a f1rst-place score in
the heavy week ends competition,
several are sure to be rewarded.
