The individualists are those who desire a champion to be named, regardiess of controlling body | affiliation, on a down-and-out basis. They contend that a man who eould | | | | | outhow!l all oppesition in a tourney of 20 games or more would have a clear hold on the title. The anti-individunlists say that singles howling is not the truest test of the pin smasher. They bhelieve a man should be a good team bowler as well, one who does not falter when his teammates are not hitting 'em any too well. They, K want a champion who has been thoroughly tested hy match play, instead of one who practically is shooting against himself for a big total. Perhaps a plan devised by a well |known howling devotee here m | satisfy both sides. To get a cham- I pion, he suggests that all duck- 1pinners with season averages of 110 or better be sent into a 10-game qualification round, total pins to count. and the 32 highest scores he | paired for match play. Each match ould consist of five games, with mes and not total pinfall determin- ing the match winner. Including the qualifying round, the winner of such a tourney would have been in 35 | test for a howler, even though some | fans might not regard it as a cham- | pionship grind. But the bowler who survived such a test certainly would haye to be regarded as one well able to do his part in either medal or | match play on the drives. | ! Notices of a meeting of the Wash ington City Duckpin Association, to be held in the Oak Room of the Raleigh Hotel at 11 o'clock Sunday morning, were distributed today. Ac- cording to the notice, the ‘“meeting has been called to take up matters of vital interest to the bowlers of Wash- ington.” In addition to the officers, directors and representatives of leagu members of the W. C. D. A., many alley managers and other men promi- nently identified yith the duckpin sport about the cify are expected to attend.
