At the bowling banquet at the Arlington Hotel last night the visitors hurled a challenge for a new series, to begin next winter, at the local pin knights, and the latter probably will accept. Entering the second five-game block of the annual match under a forty- one-pin handicap, the Royals out- bowled the Palace men, 2,769 to 2,651, a 5,390-to-5,313 victory for the ten-game home-and-home contest. It was the third win in the five yearly {tournaments for the Washingtonians. The Roanoke men were more than surprised that the Royals were con- sidering abandoning the annual tour- neys. Relations between the contend- ing teams have been most cordial and the Virginians are somewhat keen for a chance to avenge their defeat of {yesterday. This they asserted at the banquet, and their plea for another series was ardently supported by Col. Wood, who represents the Roanoke district in Congress. Bowling on their home drives, the Royals performed brilllantly. The loweat of their five games was 519 and in_the fourth they toppled 620 pins. Skinny Carroll, returning to the sport for the first time this win- ter, did some super-bowling on this loccasion. His fourth count of 159 |established a high-game record for the five-year series. The Virginians battled desperately, but Roagoke cur- rency is nestling in strange pockets today. Here are the reasons: ROANOKE.
