By Rod Thomos

Baltimore bowlers took over
five first places in the National
Duckpin Congress championships
at Colonial Village during the
week end, but none was quite
as spectacular as a tall, lanky
policeman named Hall Williams
vino won the annual Monk Fraser
Handicap at Lucky Strike.
In one stretch of a f1ve-game
set Williams marked up strikes
or spares in 18 Of 20 boxes. His
scratch score Of 719 set a record
for the five-year -old tournament
in which the city's finest duck
pinnefs have competed. With a
gross score of 744, including a
25-pin handicap, he won 500.
Williams. who bowls in several
leagues and averages about 120,
began his sensational streak in
the second game, after a 1873
opener. He marked in eight
frames Of the second string and
all the boxes of the third for
games Of ITO and 1874.
Proves too Ambitious.
After he shot 1856 in the fourth,
Williams attempted a rare feat.
He tried to win a handicap tour
nament with a scratch score.
Apparently it threw him. He
wound up with a game Of 101.
Three times he cut through the
middle and once for a two-count
on a spare. He needed game
of 100 to top the TAO gross of
Bill Turner. the leader when Will
liams started.
Turner placed second with 90
TAO and Alphonse Ancheta third
at 80-726. Anita Trott was
fourth with 90-725 and hers was
the finest performance by a
woman the tournament has pro-
duced. With a high game of
only 134, she rolled 635 from
scratch.
Others in the payof with
scores ranging from 726 to 704
were, in order, Bob Mischou, DR..
E E. Hobbs, Dick Owen, Harry
Scott, Thomas Fitch, Emerson
Fling, Don Cutsail. Cutsail shot
706 from scratch, but tied for
10th prize. Harry Stewart, with
658, and Frank Bradshear, 1855,
won consolation awards.
There were 81 entries.
Outstanding in the national
tournament was AL Rush of Bal
timore, who gained the lead in
all-events with a total Of 1920,
including 457 in singles, also good

BY the Asseeiated Press

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Sept. 25.-.
G.. Edward Grammer never
proved that publicity about his
wife's murder kept him from get
ting a fair trial, State attorneys
insisted yesterday.
Testimony and evidence at his
trial touched on everything COW
cred by newspaper. magazine, ra-
dio and television accounts, they
said.
And if Grammer or his counsel
thought otherwise. either could
have taken proper legal remedies,
they argued.
The State contended Gram
mer'S death sentence should be
upheld in an 86-page brief filed
with the Court of Appeals. Oral
arguments will be heard next
month, probably october 13. The
court, highest in Maryland. will
announce it's decision in another
month or so.
Defense Acted Earlier.
The defense submitted it's writ
ten case during the summer.
Former Joudge Joseph Sherbow
and associates, hired for the ap-
peal, charged extravagant pub
licity had prevented Grammer
from obtaining an impartial jury.
He said prosecutors and police
were as much to blame as any.
THE State must admit that

prior to and during the trial
Of this case were extensive" the
States brief said.
However. these accounts did
not disclose information which
was not introduced at the time

pared the lengthy summary of

Much has been written on the
subject of the duties of a Congress
man in his role as a representative
of the people who elected him.
However, 1 don't believe one is ever
prepared for the mass of detail work
and services he is called upon to
give outside of his regular legisla-
tive duties.
OF course, at this time, with a
new Administration attempting to
cut down on government expenses,
the number of people affected by
job changes is greater than normal.
We try to do all we can to help
everyone, but our abilities along
this line are often limited. / am not
talking about patronage, but about
ordinary civil service jobs in the
federal government.
In addition to the job situation, a
Member is confronted with a multi

tractors who feel they have not
been treated fairly; veterans in need
Of disqualification; servicemen want
ing transfers or discharges due to
hardship at home; farmers in need

business men seeking information
on legislation affecting their bust
nesses; residents needing new roads
or repairs; developers seeking water
and sewer facilities; and house
wives concerned with educational
needs, transportation and problems
affecting their homes and families.
This is just a brief summary of
the multitude of problems with
