But 'they are ana they belong to Mrs. Floretta D. McCutcheon, of Pueblo,. Colo., recognized as the wemen's bowl champion of the ountry. This 45-year-old western woman, who jumped from her kit- chen and sewing room cbscurity to bowling fame by defeating the fa- mous Jimmy Smith seven years ago in an exhibition match in Denver, looks and acts more like a housewife than a professional rec- ord breaker. “I was really forced into bowl- ing,” Mrs. McCutcheon explained the other day in her hotel room while joining patches into what eventually will be a quilt for her 19-year-old daughter. “The steel works club of Pueblo women's garments G to make her recognized in bowling reles. Since that'time she has not bowled nine perfect games, last about a year ago in Ho- boken, N. J., but has averaged slightly more than 200 pins a game| “What women lack in strengtl they can make up in aecuracy i bowling.” said Mrs. McCutcheon; “The ball I use has medium speed and is known as a come-by ball With no hook, I always try to lay the ball in a pocket, counting it a' mistake if I go to the other side, even though I score a strike.” The system certainly has worked out well enough in her own case for she has gained undisputed rec- ognition as Queen of Bowling. She rules feminine bowlers in the same manner as Helen Jacobs does ten- nis; Katherine Rawls, swimming; and Virginia Van Wie, golf. Fourth Ameng 253 Tops All have swept through their re- spective sports defeating their riv. | this season, beating the Ollers four times—twice here, once at Tulsa and once at Colorado Springs. The Wichita Chieftains, the Hut- ‘(-htsan, Kas., Renos, the Hollywood Universals and their intracity riv- als, the Denver Athletic Club, are among the Pigs' victims.

Hyat !said the change affected him and his teammates “a little.” Barry Dunham of Wichita said that if visiting players arrive two or three days before a game they soon be- !come accustomed to the rarefied atmosphere. It has seemed this season that visiting outfits generally played better on the second night. In addition to the teams men- tioned, almost certain tourney en- {rants include San Francisco's club, the Olympics; McPherson Refiners, Salt Lake City's Brooklawn club and Becker's, and DePaul univer- sity of Chicago. | Should Be Money Maker Coach Dick Romney of Utah State, western division champion iin the Rocky Mountain conference, THAT'S MUSIC TO'ME EARS: LOBAN' iz i [} s S Bitain cights taerved. said his team would enter if it beats |0he eastern division champion in the playoff games. Romney was on !the University of Utah team which ‘won the national A. A. U. cham- | pionship in 1916 at Chicago. ‘ The last college team to win the 'tourney was Washburn of Topeka, Kas., in 1925. | Regional officials are confident {th> meet will be a money-maker. Full houses for only three of thc night sessions will write off the overhead. Nearly 5,500 persons jam med the auditorium for the secen |Pig-D. A. C. game and several 1hundred were turned away. Until this year the tournament ‘has been held at Kansas City since 1921.

L ALABAMA, TULANE TO REVIVE SERIES UNIVERSITY, Ala, March 14— The decision of Alabama and Tu lane officials to rexew athletic re- lations on the gridiron in 193¢ brings back to the Southern foot- ball program a rivalry that began in 1892, From that year through 1921 when the two last met, the Green Wave and Crimson Tide engaged i1 !4 battles, Alabama winning 11 Tulane two and one ending in a tie.

The final gun found the ball in ‘Wrangell's possession, the visitors vainly trying to induce Dame For- | tune to smile their way. Shooting Poor As a matter of fact, the Lady Fortune wasn't good to either team, although the Bears did get that critical deciding point. Both quin- | tets played ragged ball and missed shot after shot. That well-known | malady, “stage fright’ hit both clubs, as is shown amply by the low scoring. ; Wrangell grabbed a 5 to 0 lead and held it for four minutes be-| fore the winners could swing into action. The visitors led, 5 to 3 at the first quarter. But the half-time count found Juneau forging to the front, 9 to 8, with Buddy Lindstrom playing a great part in this drive. ‘The losers made their big bid for the game in the third period, when‘ Dick Johnson, James Berkeley and Fred Grant went on a shooting bee to give them that 17-15 lead | as the final session started.

M ORGAN Resident Agent MINNESOTA COACH JOINS THE ANTIS ON CENTER JUMP | MINNEAPOLIS, March 14.—Dave | MacMillan, University of Minnesota basketball coach, has aligned him- {self with those advocating elimina- | tion of the jump at center. MacMillan declares that this change would tend to. create faster and more interesting contests. He contends it also would result in more actual playing time and high- er scores. If Dave becomes impatient with his players’ inability to make all heir free throws, he can be ex- used. He scored an even 100 out of 101 free throws one season while playing with a professional quint. That was under the old system where one man generally was designated to do all the foul shoot- ing. Although MacMillan has not brought a Big Ten basketball title to the Gophers he has put them up into the first division generally since he has been here. MacMillan has had to struggle |with an odd assortment of mater- ial and seldom has five tall and rangy boys to put on the floor, NOTICE TO CREDITORS In the Matter of the Estate of CHARLES BERNARD MCcRAE, deceased.
