C. quint, but they hung up two new records which, it is believed, will stand for the season. The pacemak- ers set a high team set mark of 1,708 to better the old record of 1,652 by 56 pins and rolled a 623 game, surpass- ing the old high team game mark of 590 by 33 pins.

The Laundry combination flashed much improved form and also made the Legionaries step smartly to take one of the other games.

With the at 11 o'clock, the Washington Ladies’ Recreation drives for the purposg of for its yearly title competition. The organizations interested in the promotion of the sport of bowling here. | The greater the attendance at this meeting, the greater will be the pros- pect of a wonderful 1926 tournament. This Washington Ladies' Duckpin | Association has done a great deal rnr" woman bowlers of this city. But for | even today, after several years of ex- stence, it seems to be little known | among the fair maple smashers. There are some who confuse the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin Associa- ton with the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin League. They can now learn .that the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin League is only an integral part of the Washington Ladies’ Duck- pirn Association. One is a league, the other an association that includes this league and others. Perhaps the simi- of names has had something to fact that the Washington Ladies” Duckpin League is the oldest woman’s duckpin circuit in the city has Be that as it may, the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin Association is the | cnly body of a controlling character mong the woman bowlers here, and t would be well for all leagues, in- stead of just a few, to be affiliated with it. The Washington Ladies’ Duckpin Association does not attempt might be a good thing for the woman bowlers to have their general organi- tion exercise supervision over them rect to interleague relations. However, the women ought to be able to attend to that themselves. They can do so if they pitch in and work together. And the best way for them to work together is in such an organization as the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin Association. Heretofore it appears that ten or a dozen young women have done the Lulk of the work in arranging city tournaments. It was not that they wanted such a difficult task, but they assumed it rather than see any de- crease in bowling interest among the women here. These same young women undoubt- dly are willing to keep on with the -00d work, but now that there are so many more bowlers among the fair sex here than in other years, it does not seem possible that these few will be refused the assistance they so sorely need in conducting the tournament. With more putting their shoulders to the wheel, Washington women will have a tournament that will eclipse any previous effort. Try to get into the game., J\fhn A. Ferrall, Agriculture Interbureau League, is strong for the rank and file of bowlers. He believes in helping along the small scoring man and letting the'stars take care of themselves. Ta encourage the plugger he offers the following: “The goal for the average bowler is an average of 100. Few realize that their lack of success in-reaching this mark is due largely toytheir failure to ‘play out the string.’ A few bad breaks in the early boxes of a game discourages them and causes them to let up in their efférts. They forget that the charices for a mark in the ninth or tenth boxes are just as good as in the first or second. “Dixon, the young Agriculture In- terbureau bowler who set a District of Columbia record early in the season Ly shooting 445 in three games of a scheduled league match, appears to be a good Ulustration of the truth of this theory. Men who have observed his bowling insist that he was prac- tically' as good threé years ago as he is now, yet the present season shows him averaging 111 for 51 games, as against his .95 to 100 averages for former seasons. “This present average, too, indicates that he has done some steady, high- tlass bowling in addition to his spec- tacular set. In former seasons he had a tendency to relax and grow indiffer- ent ufter a poor start or where nothing was at stake, Now he is going after every pin from first to manager of the “In the match of last week, for ex- ample, he gained ground with heavy counts in the last boxes of his three games and lifted hls set to 345 after starts that indicated he would be for- 331 | tunate to total 800. FIGHT IS POSTPONED. “BOSTON, February 6 (#) e box-" fng match between Tommy Milligan #f Scotland and Pete Latzo of ton, Pa., has been put off l&‘dnnnltgix; “In Dixon’s case, the fact that he always has beem a good ‘money’ bowler and a consistent winner in tournaments and prize contests seems. to bear out the theory that his de- cision to ‘play out the string' to the very last box has been the chisf factor in his climb to the leadersh.p of the Aggie duckpinners.” « No perfect score ever has been made in’ duckpin bowling under suck regu- lation conditions that¥it could be of- ficially recognized and accepted, but a Pittsburgh paper reports that-a bowler of the Smoky City, shooting at the rubber-banded pins recently, turned in what might be called the the fair bowlers of the District of Columbia want a big championship tournament just for themselves and managed by themselves, they have the chance today to give such an affair a good start. This morning, Bowlers Duckpin Association will meet at the electing officers and outlining plans meeting will be open to all woman strikes would mean a perfect score of 300, and though in this instance | Pack they were divided between two games | & and therefore did not count for 300, the fact that they came in succession | Is sufficient to make the performance one of the most sensational ever re. |corded with the bowlers anywhere in | 55" the small-pin sport. “The player to achieve that feat was ‘Smiling’ Smith of the Casey Stars team of the Original Pastime League,” the Pittsburgh paper re- ports. “Rolling against the Sorosis outfit, four games being bowled to | a match in this league, Smith finished his first game with nine strikes in a row, giving him a score of 257 for the game. The world record is 285, Starting his second game he made three more strikes in succession, giv- ing him 12 straight. “In his four games he totaled 798 pins, not only smashing all records for all time in his own league, but also hanging up one of the best marks ever made anywhere in any league. “‘A total of 798 pins for four games means that Smith came within 2 pins of getting an average of 200 a game for four games, which prob- ably is the best ever made in this vicinity, at least for four games of match play In regulation league com- I)eatl\,on.” "hat do you suppose “Smiling” Smith could-~do to the hudwoosdu here? And what do you suppose our topnotchers could do to the rubber- banded pins in Pittsburgh after sev- eral weeks of practice against them? Entries for the annual Masonic As- soclation bowling tournament, due to start on the Convention Hall drives a week from tomorrow, are pouring in so rapidly that Arville Ebersole, who Is receiving them, believes the tourney will have a record number of competitors this year. Tuesday night’s bowling in the ‘Washington Ladies’ League at the Coliseum not only will complete the second lap in the race for titular laurels, but also will bring into op- position the four leaders, with the possibility of a decided shift of posi- tion among the first division teams when the smoke of battle has cleared away. N The leading Columblans will clash with the Hilltoppers, now tied with the Commercials and Washingtons, three games behind the pace setters, while the other parties of the secomd place deadlock are fighting it out on the drives, The Beeques, in fifth position and four games behind the leaders, will encounter the Daughters of Isabella, a second division team that has not been bowling so well. Anns Williams of the Delhis, in the Washington Ladies’ League, is a good example of the bowler who proves her worth to her team, be- cause she always is trying to accom- plish something. While she has no record-breaking scores to her credit, she has shown consistent improve- ment in her game and no doubt will see her name registered among the high scores more than ence before the season ends. Public Debt League girls now are striving for a prize offered by a prominent’ Washington jeweler to the one that bowls the highest league game between February 1 and April 26. Edna Parker at present leads with 112, but scoring in the circuit is improving so fast that undoubtedly a greater total than that will be needed to get the trophy. Capt. Barber of Economics, in the Agricuiture Interbureau League, did some unusual counting on marks while bowling against Plant Bureau. He made six marks. On the first three he counted two pins each and on the other three nine pins each. In each case he hit the head pin, but the first three shots landed too accurately on the nose. The other three shots hit the button. OUR CLUB CHAMPIONS WW. L. Pendergast. N OT often in the history of golf matches is-a contest ended on an extra hole by. one of the competitors getting an eagle. And sel- dom does such an event occur-in any match so important as the final of a championship, particularly that of a club where there are so many good golfers as Bannockburn. Yet that is exactly what W. L. Pen- dergast, the champlon of the Bannock- burn Club, accomplished in the final round of the event played early in October, All even at the end of the scheduled route, Pendergast and his opponent halved the first extra hole and then the new club champion banged a pair of far ranging shots to the top of the rugged hill on which the second green stands and proceeded to sink his third shot for an eagle 3 on a par 5 hole. Needless to say, this was enough for his opponent, who relinquished his champlonship aspira- tions without a murntur. This sort of finish, however, is char- acteristic of the Pendergast game—a sctapping, fighting sort of match play golf that never quits until the final putt is sunk and the hand of victory extended to the loser. For Pender- &ast, a quiet, modest and unassuming man normally, has the true fighting heart of the great match player. He never knows when he is beaten. Pendergast {s comparatively new to local golf, but is a player who is sure KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS LEAGUE. Team Standings. Columbia, Capital - Webster.

He joined the Bannockburn Club about a year ago. Comigg from Mas- sachusetts, a very hotbed of golf, and a State that has produced two national amateur champlons, it was to be ex- pected that Pendergast would have the foundation of a golf game. That he has, for his average game over the short Bannockburn layout s between 70 and 74, agdinst a par of 66, and over a trail beset with countless difficulties for the man who strays.from the beaten path. He has gotten below 70 several times, but usually his score hovers around 72 or 73—a mark quite good enough to trim any man who is not at his best. Pendergast is not an_Abe Mitchell off the tee. He has sufficient length, but is not noted for the carrying pow- er of his tee shots. His strongest point is his short game. At this he is a master and his forte finds particu- larly pleasing application at Bannock- burn. Pendergast is employed at the Bu- reau of Standards, ful bowling by registering a set of 319, making her seventh consecutive set above 300, and at the pace she is going at present will eclipse all previ- ous marks for high average in the league. B | Elizabeth Ackman of the Washing- tons showed a flash of her old-time skill when she tumbled the pins for counts of 110, 101 and 102, a good look- ing three.game string of 313. Catherine Quigley of the Beeques shot a set of 311, with high game of 120 and added a few pins to her 100 average. Marjorie Bradt of the Commerclals, who has been in a slump for the past { three weeks, redeemed herself with | substantial 310 set. Lorraine Gullle gave a demonstra- tion of the uncertainties of the game when she got a count of 116 in her first effort with three spares, and then had to work hard to reach 99 in her second game with four spares— hich goes to show that the “counts’ | are what count, more than the actual number of spares or strikes made. | “Lucile Preble of the Delhis is grad- | | # | ually pulling her average up with the leaders after slipping several points.

He hung up games of 148, 139 and 110, for a splendid set total of 396, which figure was matched by Arthur Urban of Convention Hall, ‘whose scores were 156, 116 and 124. Caroll Daly was not far behind, his games of 150, 113 and 113 giving him a total of 376 for the evening. In the first game Convention Hall registered a game of 602, but fell 31 pins short of recording the effort in the won column as the Temple boys tallied 633, Carroll Daly contributing 150 and Myers 148, while Eddie Edin- ger aided with a count of 122. Those three men totaled 420, or an average of 140. It has been several seasons since a league team lost with a score of 600 or better, the nearest approach being last year when King Pins with a 599 tally lost to Belmonts of the Na- tional Capital League.
