Presenting a complete line-up, S gleton took two games from Gompers, | preventing the latter team from gain- | fng on the league leaders.

The annual tournament will be held during the third week of February and, as usual, will be on a handlcap basis. The attention of team captains is called to it at this time because of the rule | which requires participants ‘to enter with an average of 100, unless at least | 15 games of the league schedule hav: been rolled.

Showing an_ astonishing ability to come from behind, the strong Prop- erty five took the odd game from Plant Bureau. Twice in succession the Property team went into the final boxes trailing and then produced the s necessary to win. = Lindstrom's game was sufficient to give the final content to Plant Bureau. Frank Donaldson; also with the Messenger team last season, contributed the best set for Property, 323, while Rose counted 324 for Plant Bureau's high set. Aided by the super-sharpshooting of Cooper, who totaled 370 for his set, the Economics five took two of the three games from the Solicitors. For the Solicitors Ruppert, with a set of 337, did the best work. Another striking illustration of the uncertainties of the duckpia game is the fact that Cooper’s set of 370 was achieved with the aid of three strikes and nine spares. On adjoining alleys Ferrell of Plant Bureau and Ready of the Interbureau five had three strikes and eight spares and one respectively. but could count only 311 and 324 for their sets, the difference, of course. being in the counts made on the marks.

E o Bowlers in this circuit inaugurated the second serfes of the schedule by going on a record-breaking rampage. One alltime record and two season marks were swept aside, and at least one other record endangered before the night's play was concluded. The Washingtons are credited with two record performances, the 138 game registered by Jennie Malcolm. and the team set of 1,523, the latter being an all-time mark for the league. Marjorie Bradt of the Commercials contributed her share to the record smashing by shooting a game of 95 without a mark, topping the former flat game record by two pins. Marie Frere of the Washingtons | was a big help to her team in achiev- ng their record-making set, having three games of 112, 107 and 108, a total of 827 for the string, which was the best recorded for the week. Jennie Malcolm sandwiched her big game in between two counts of 99 xnd 81, for an average-boosting set of 326.

Alice Burke of Daughters of Isa- bella is a vastly improved bowler, and has rolled some neat scores in recent matches. Tuesday night she in- creased her average with a good three-game string of 326, having counts of 96, 112 and 117. “Kitty” Klein of the Columbians appears to have finally hit her stride, as evidenced by a consistently good bit of bowling Tuesday night. She turned in a 304 set, with high game of 111. .Sarah Sanford made her debut in the league with Interstate Commerce, and established herself as the first member of the Consistent Bowlers' | Club by rolling three consecutive games of 71, Margaret Miltner of the Commer- clals is gradually pulling up with the {leaders in the averages, and made a substantial galn Tuesday night with a 296 set, her best game being 111. The Climbers finally broke into the select 500 class when they toppled *he nins for a count of 508. Aura Cardin, who had a count of 122, was mainly responsible for the team going over the 500 mark. Lorraine Gulli held her average with 4 set of 301, while her teammate, Vir- ginia- Yarnell, by rolling three con- sistent games for a total of 288, con- tinued her upward march in the average column. ‘Winners of theater tickets for high game were Margaret Miltner, Pauiine Thomas, Jennife Malcolm, Rena Levy and Alice Burke.
