POP 1S TOLD MOSE HAS GECOME A DUB Takes Word of Another Man That Old Partner Has Only 90 Average. BY R. D. THOMAS, OSE KRAUSS, alias Harry F., once king of Washington bowl- ers, was fired with ambition to- day by what he chose to re- gard as an insult from his ven- erable and distinguished pal, Harry B. Halley, otherwise called Pop. Pop threatened to fire Mose as his el doubles partner. On receipt of a scurrilous message from the aged one, who has been doubles mate almost from the time Adam wore knee pants, Mose hied him- self to a duckpin plant and began the business of unkinkinz for a perform- ance next Thursday night in the Wash- ington City Duckpin Association tour- nament at the Coliseum. “I'm gonna beat the life out of that old guy,” growled Mose. Is Viewed as Burden. In all the years they have shared bowling fortunes, Krauss has never been high man over Halley in the city tour- nament doubles. “Harry, will you ever get off my back?” wrote the burdened partner. “I just had a talk with our mutual friend, Ed Libbey, and he tells me that you are a 90-average man. He suggests,” went on the message, “that I substitute himself or Van Auken for you as my partner, as he gave you a beating at Hiser's alleys, out in Maryland. “Tell me frankly, Harry, did Ed trim you? If so, please send me Van.” As a matter of fact, the brilliant rec- ord of the former monarch of maple knights is stained with a defeat by Ed Libbey. Some time ago Mose accepted a challenge from Ed. The match was rolled at Henry Hiser’s place, in Be- thesda. “You used to be good, I de- rided Libbey before the battle, “but you're all washed up now.” “Yeah?” returned Mose. “Well, you get your gang to bet the town on this match and Tl carry it away on my Despite Libbey’s lack of respect for him, Krauss was a strong favorite. He figured to mop up Libbey without seri- ous effort. But duckpins is a game of uncertain- ties. Even the mightiest pin mauler can’t get 'em at times when he most needs the timbers. Such was the case. Krauss rolled 96. by 4 pins. One Game Is Enough. “p]l pick up those and plenty more,” predlctgd Mose as he reached for a ball to start the second game. But Libbey was putting on his coat. “Say, where you going?” queried his puzzled foe. “Going? Why, home, I reckon.” “You gonna quit on me?” “Quit me eye. I won, didn't I?” “Won? How ’'beut the other two games?” “We didn't say anything about how long this match would be,” said Libbey, “and I settle all my bowling arguments with one game. So long.” And with that he left. —_———— LEADER IN CLASS D MAY BE RATED AS C The Job Press team of the Govern- ment Printing Office, which leads class D of the city tournament with a score of 1,611, may be lifted into class C. John Nebel, high man of the set with 332, was not registered on the Job Press entry hlank, thus preventing the classification committee from getting an accurate line on the Typos. If he hasn’t rolled 15 league games for an average of 103 or less Nebel will be judged & class A bowler and his team possibly will be reclassified. Secretary Arville Ebersole is checking up. No new leader appears today in the tournament standings. C. C. ds rolled into third place in class B sin- gles with 363. His games were 126, 116 and 121, ° The Commercial lnldllialu team. with 1,518 assumed second place in class E. was high man with & set of 351. Tony Santinl, who showed lots of class the Howard Campbell Sweep- stakes, will shoot singles tonight. Three class A’ teams are listed. The Linworths of the Northeast Leagye, Wolfe Marketmen of Columbia Heights and Bernard Cafe shooters of Columbia Heights will strut. Only a few star bowlers have rolled.
