Taylor of Oberlin College told of apparatus that he has developed to study the motion of the ball in a bowling alley. A recording device registers to the hundredth of a second the passage of the ball at half meter (about 20-inch) intervals. Instead of rolling the ball by hand, a cata- pult is used, so that the force used can accurately be controlled. Studies already made with the de- vice indicate that the accepted theo- ries of the ball's motion are not anite correct. but that the friction seems to vary with the bail’s speed. by Woman Bowlers—Pick Tourney Site.

The new official group includes Rose Mulroe of the Public Debt Girls’ League president: Edna Ragan of the Prderal | Ladies' League, vice president: Lorraine | Gulli of the Washington Ladies' League, secretary, and leda Am‘don of the Veterans Bureau Woman's League, treasurer. By an open vote, the association de- cided that the tournament this .ear will b> held on the Coliseum where so many of its annual champ: ship events have been staged. Meet Next Saturday. fter disposing of its election and | choosing the tourney alleys. the a ciation decided that a special meeting | will be held at the Arcadia next Sat- urday night at which each member league wili be entitled to have only one voting representative present with the officers. At this meeting. it hopes to organize committees: for the annual tournament and also to draw a con- stitution and by-laws, something the association never really has had. o be submitted for consideration March. None of this was accomplished la: night without a great amount of d cussion. Factions within the organi: tion that had oeen at odds for ne: | two years were far from harmonv a the outset of the session. and not until the members had been arguing f more than an hour did they decide to proceed with the election of officers. One From a League. Then it was determined that a league should not have more than one of its membars in the associations official group. Three of those chosen are affili- ated with more than one league. but when nominated they were ed to elect the league from which they were selected. The: Te only two contests in the elections. Mrs. Mulroe narrowly de- feated Mrs. May O'Brien of the Wach- ington Ladies' League for the pres: | dency. while Lorraine Gulli. opposed Ella Limerick of the Ladies' District League for the office of secretary. re- ceived a majority of the votes cast.
