Paul Harrison, a big name in
bowling IS years ago, is back in

and set Of AIS, season records in
the Fort Davis Minor League.
AS a teen-age sensation, Har-
rison joined Eddie Espey. Jack
Wolstenholme. Tim Dunworth and
Hokie Smith to make up the
famous Original Washington
Juniors of two decades ago. Only
Smith, manager of King Pin. is
still among the city's leading pin
men.
At Hartford, Conn, in 1923 as a
member of the Grand Central
Valet team. Paulie fired a five
game TIC set which stood as a
New England record for a num-
ber of years. Two years later he
paired with Joe Mulroe to win
the mems national doubles in
Waterbury and the next year.
1881, retained his doubles title
here at Convention Hall with
Espey as his partner. During the
next few years he and Max Rosen-
berg formed an almost unbeatable
doubles combination.
Paulie was a member of the
crack Occidental Restaurant team,
sponsored by the late Fred Buch-
holz, which made a sweep of
matches in Bridgeport, Boston,
Woonsocket and Hartford on a
New England tour in 1888.
He was the first to bowl a / 200
nine-game set in a Washington
City Duckpin Association tourna-
ment, winning the 1884 Class A
all-events with 1900. His set of
467 bowled in 1884 stood for years
as a record for the District League.

and Dick MentZer, Eastern coach,
deserves much credit for not only
keeping his team at top pitch for
each game but in the good scout

Eastern met in the playoffs.
Mentzer got a good look at
Tech and st. Johns before taking
on those schools for the Interhigh
and the Catholic Interhigh
crowns, respectively. After seeing
them he brought back enough in
formation to tell his boys just
what they were going to run up
against.
But the performances of the
players themselves cannot be dis
counted. They were outstanding
all the way. The Eastern boys
played as if every game were going
to be their last. They never let
down.
1t may be disheartening to other
interhigh coaches to observe that
most of the Rambler stars, in
cluding four Evening Star all-high
selections, probably will be back
next year. Halfback Ralph Sita,

According to Williams figures,
Halfback Jere Michael was the

153 pounds. Michael had 5.4-

aboard the schooner arlsark"
which is tied up in the harbor,
at 2 am. today.
According to police reports,
both men were apparently on
a spree and returned to the
vessel under the influence of
liquor. There was an argu-
ment in which harsh words
flew and finally ended when
Felix allegedly plunged his
knife into Cruz's left breast,
penetrating his heart. Hearing
q commotion Patrolman Rich
ards investigated; Don Cam
trell, who was in the vicinity
went to his assistance. The vic
tim was placed in Mr.. Can
trell's car and rushed to the
hospital but he died on the
way. Felix was fully dressed
while the deceased was practi-
cally nude, wearing only
shorts, which indicated he had
been getting ready for bed.
Felix has been placed under
arrest.
