For several years the duckpin
stars of Baltimore have lorded
it over those of Washington in
tournament competition. but the
current season promises a
change. At any rate. Washington
is of to an encouraging start.
due to one man.
Thus far. three open tourna-
ments patronized regularly by
the experts of both cities have
been held and victorious in two
was Billy Watson. big flreballer
of the Anacostia Spillway team.
And the young man was second
in the other.
If Watson had won the Reds
Megaw Open at Clarendon,
which fell to Bill Schrnitt of
Baltimore. he would have be-
come probably the first WASH
ington duckpinner to top the
payoff In three consecutive ma
jor tournaments. Sunday he
won the Charley Conn Memorial
in Baltimore and q week before
the Wolfe Memorial at Hyatts-
vile.
1t has been a remarkable
streak. For six games in the
Megaw. his score was $50. In
the Wolfe it was 1923 for eight
and in the Conn. $50 for six.
That adds up to an average of
1923 for 20 games.
In one stretch, Watson topped
the greatest four-game score
ever rolled. but was not credited
with a record because it was not
a complete performance. His
average for the first four strings
of the Conn was 1863. In es-
tahlishing the four-game record,
Jimmy Dietsch of Baltimore
averaged exactly $50.

Watson will be an interesting
figure in the Howard Campbell
Classic, to be rolled next Sun
day in three five-game blocks at
the Greenway Bowl. Fort Davis
and Anacostia Spillway. in that
order. with the starting time
1880. 4 and 7:30 pm.
The Washington Baltimore
feud win be resumed with Dave
Volk of Baltimore the defending
champion.
Watson is due for a tumble.
Certainly it would be asking too
much that he maintain the siz-
zling pace Of his last three tour
naments, but Big Bill hopes he
doesn't suffer the fate Of his
bowling pal on the Anacostia
Spillway team, Danny Pessagno.
On successive evenings last
week. Pessagno rolled ats with
the Spillway team in the District
Major League and 462 with the
Bank Of Washington in the Dis
trict Minor. They were believed
to be the two biggest league sets
ever rolled In succession by a
Washington duckpinner. But
the next time out Danny came a

Willie Pool Wins
First Comeback Race

CLEVELAND. Oct. ii III
Americas oldest active jockey,
4s-year-old Willie Pool. won his
first race on his comeback trail
yesterday aboard a mount ~
years younger than he is.
Pool piloted 2-year-old Bud
Buden, a l2-to-l shot. to victory
in the third race at Cranwood
track. He got the assignment
only because Bud Buden reared
up in the paddock before the
race and slightly injured Harris
Stauffer. apprentice jockey. who
was to have ridden him.
Pool can't remember how many
winners he's had. but it was the
first in three starts for Bud
Buden.

Bottom Teams In Detroit Mixed LEAGUE
Ambush Brethren In Loftier EcheIons

Detroit, Mich. - T h ere
was quite a bit of excitement
in the C.F.U. Detroit Mixed
League November 9th be-
cause the bottom five teams
defeated the top five teams
to the tune of three or four
points each.
In the match between the
Pet Tigers and the Terrors,
the first game was an easy
victory for the Terrors due
to Carl Trontls 184-507 and
a 486 series by Don Gray.
However, after this the Tt
gers started playing for keeps
and came through to earn a
81 decision.
Credit among the Pet Ii
gers goes to their anchor
man, Bob Blays with 224-500,
to Ginny Koss with 168-457
and George Kodak, who with
a 1877 average bowled ia
163-468.
BY losing four points to
the Onyx, the Rock-Heds al
SO lost their fifth place posi-
ton in team standings and
slipped all the way to 9th po-
sition. Dorothy Hecimovich
with a 186-466 the previous
week, did her part to help the
Rock-Heds by bowling 455
this session, with assists from
Lillian Bunjevac with a ISL
and Steve Devich who had a
III game.
But this couldn't compare
with the following Onyxers:
Pat Jackovich who has a 113

average but rolled 194-464,
1926 pins over her average.
John Magiera had 180-191-
SIT and Frank Grgurich had
1882, making a combina-
ton hard to beat.
Andy Kovac with 233-562
was solely responsible for the
one point which the Five
Buns took from the Yo Yo's.
Phil Pavkovich also fired 165
but this was a day for the
underdogs so the Yo Yo's
were destined to take three
points. Credit for their VIC
tory can go to Pete Retting
who spilled the naples for a
481 count and Phil Kodak
who registered a 185-477.
Even though the Loafers
only took one point from the
Hot Shots, they still remain
in first place but their posi-
ton, after a second straight
81 lacing, is not so secure
with all teams breathing
down the back of their necks.
The second place Slow
Pokes are only one point be-
hind, the third place Terrors
only ~ games behind, while
the Yo Yo's and the Pet Ti-
gers are only two behind. The
Loafers had a slow day with
the highest bowling done by
Fred Gregorich, 166-478.
This top score could not COM
pare with Bill Grgurich of
the Hot Shots who bowled
2O0-183-547.
