The year 1928 has seen the opening of more than 100 new alleys in and around the city, numerous new and | sensational records made, the inaugu- ration of the National Duckpin Con- gress’ first tournament and subsequent | developments of the establishment of | this organization, the organization of men and women's doubles leagues, the | first Meyer Davis' ladies’ sweepstakes, the addition of a class D in the Wash- |ington City Duckpin Association tour- |nament, and before the final para- graphs are written the first Evening Star individual tournament, which promises to be the largest tournament ever hold locally, will be under way. New alleys have been opened during the past year at Arcadia, Lucky Strike, Queen Pin and Georgetown Recreation Center in the'city. Nearby new plants have been opened at Alexandria. Silver Spring, Rossyln, Bethesda and Mount Rainier. New drives at Clarendon, Hy- attsville, College Park and Kensington have gained in popularity. Intercity Matches Numerous. Intercity competition increased in popularity’ during the year. Convention Hall* crack pinmen humbled their Brooklyn rivals in both ends of their home-and-home match, sweeping team, doubles and singles honors in both the events here. ‘Washington stars cmerged victorious in doubles and singles matches with | the best of Boston, Brooklyn and Bal- timore. Washington ladies’ and District | league teams fared well against Balti more, Philadelphia and Richmond teams. Jack Whalen was selected as the ranking star of the District, with Wal- ter Megaw, Howard Campbell, Arthur Logan. Brad Mandley, Glenn Wolsten- | holme, Maxie Rosenberg, Clem Weide- man, Hap Burtner and Al Work follow- ing in the order named. Megaw amassed 1,828 pins to win the Howard Campbell Sweepstakes, with Campbell second and Hiser third. Mrs. Irene Mischou was the out- standing woman bowler for 1928. By copping both the N. D. P. B. C. and W. W. D. A. all-event titles she took a large share of women's laurels, which were divided among Lorraine Gulli, who won the first Meyer Davis Sweep- stakes; Majorie Bradt, who recently rolled 143 and 157 games and a 608 five-game set; Marie Frere, who re- cently set new season game and set marks in District League; Doris Good- all, who rolled 933 to win the class B all-event title in the W.

HOWARD SCORES IN ATHLETICS Howard University enjoyed an usually successful athletic year. In foot ball, basket ball and track the Bisons showed strongly and they or- ganized a swimming team which did well and laid the foundation for devel- opment of this sport at the school. Howard had a big edge over teams rep- resenting its old foe, Lincola University, | except in track in which neither had a special advantage. On the gridiron Howard lost only one game and was tied once. The Bisons trimmed Lincoln, 12 to 0. here Thanksgiving day. In track the Bisons took part in their own meet, the Lincoln meet, the Penn relays and the Ohio State meet. Howard won its own meet, was second to Lincoln in the latter's affair, failed to place in the Penn relays and its relay team was fourth in the Ohio State affair. In base ball Howard's nine won eight of 12 games, beating Lincoln twice and losing to it once in a three-game series. Seventeen of 21 games in basket ball were won by the Bisons including two victories over Lincoln. Only one match, with the Baltimore Y. M. C. A. was in order for the How- ard swimming team. It resulted in an easy victory for the District outfit. The Bisons are planning a telegraphic meet with Tallegga College in Alabama the coming season and other contests for their natators. un- BOXING GROWS; MAT GAME POOR Boxing as an amateur sport. has pros- pered here this year, but the wrestling game, left entirely to the professionals. did not fare so well. ‘The Jewish Community Center, the City Club and two of the colleges, Georgetown and Catholic University. fostered boxing.
