The Saengerb'.nd bowling team contin- ued its splendid playing and definitely set- tled the matter of the championship of the District Bowling League Wednesday night on the alleys of the Washington Athletic Club. They came out victorious in all of the games played, making good scores in each, and running the great total of #00 in the second game. All of the Saengers, save little Fritz Hanold, found the alleys very much to their liking in this contest and bowled in Al form. Hanold had an off night and could not safely deliver his ball. Spiess ran up the corking string of 222 for highest singie game, and evidently has a thorough knowledge of these alleys, as it was here that he made the top score of 244, a record that has not been equaled in a league game this season. For the home team, Kidd led with 178. Difficult spares were numerous, McCautiy bowling 4-7-10; Dietz, 9-10; Laue, 1 and Sptess, 4-5. The first game was the most closely con- tested of the series, the Saengers winning in the end by but 17 pins. The home team led for the first two frames, but the Saen- gers’ four strikes and a spare in the third took a big jump forward.- From that point the lead alternated, the Washingtons hav- ing the best of it at the end of the ninth. The Saengers made a strong finish in the last inning and pulled out winners. ‘The score follows: Wash'n Athletic Cinb. St. Sp. Se./ Sacngerbund.
