Ann Habercom, whose duck
pin feats are legion, had a
curious experience last night
shooting for Glenmont Bowl
against Fulford's Radio in the
Capital Women's Major League
at Bonifant Lanes. In q single
game she hit her all-time low
for one frame and . near high
in another.
Midway of the final game
Ann guttered her first ball.
With the second she picked OF
the No. Z pin. With the third
she hit only No. 4. this for a 2
box.
In the 10th she fired two
strikes and an eight for q 20
frame that deadlocked the
game. But 1t wasn't completely
a story-book finish. Glenmont
lost the rolloff and the match.
In the crucial game, Fulford's
was saved by Ruth Nice Clintic's
159, part Of q 385 set. She also
marked in the rollof as did
Marian Hamilton and Millie
Stadtler. It was a peculiar
skirmish otherwise. In one
stretch Miss Wilson, Miss
Hamilton and Nell HUFF Of
Fulford's and Frances Shoe
maker and June Hillock of
Glenmont scored strikes in
succession.

But the outstanding bowler
of the evening. and a remark
able one, was Mary Darlington
Of Wheaton Bowling Center
who blasted games Of 131, 1873
and ISL for 423. This con-
trasted her previous best Of
344. It was 10 sticks under the
leagues high held Jointly by
Helen Pappas and Norma
Klein.
Mabel Schatz shot 152-39S
and Miss Klein 1872 as runner
up Fair Lanes scored an i'm
portant sweep against Foley
Ford, and thus narrowed the
King Pins lead to two games,
Betty Gather rolled 366 for
Foley. .
Another sharpshooter was
Frances Perkins Of King Pin
with 384, which got her team
an edge over Goetz Co., fol
whom Anna Sarbacher was
best at 1868.
