Al Gardner Becomes Bouwling Mogul, Buying Roanoke Alleys EET Albert Dudley Gardner, tion of a deal gave him ownership of an establishment at Roanoke, Va. He took it from the hands of a receiver. Gardner will supplant Charlie Harrls, well known to many Washington bowl- 1ni fans as an intercity performer, as thé duckpin and billiard mogul of Roa~- noke. Twenty-five alleys and fifteen tables constitute his- equipment. The place will be re-opened next Septem- ber 1. Too Many Activities. Harris laid his faflure as a bowling proprietor to having had too many irons in the fire and to an attempt to put over a low cost for bowling. He has been engaged in several businesses. During the last season he cut the price of an afternoon game to 10 cents and an evenifg string to 15 cent: This falled to increass business and the receipts were cut disastrously. The cost of & game in most cities is 20 cents at night and 15 cents in the afternoon and some places two bits is tke night tax. According to George L. Iseman, secre- tary of the National Duckpin Bowling Cingress, the Roanoke establishment is one of the most completely equipped and artistically appointed in the East, al- though not among the largest. It is com sidered ideal for Roanoke. The alleys and billiard room take up the second and third floors of a three- story building which will be two years old next October. The place was eon- structed primarily for a’ bowling alley, with several stores on the ground floor. Gardner has leased the entire building for 10 years and purchased all the bowl- ing and billiard equipment. There are two other bowling alleys in Roanoke, but one. has only 11 drives and the other seven. Thus, the Wash- ingtonian will have a near monopoly. Gardner has been secretary of the Convention Hall Co. since it took over the mammoth building at Fifth and K More D e AL. GARDNER. streets northwest on June 25, 1925. His office has been general superintend of the market and bowling enterpris and secretary of the company, in which he is a substantial stockholder. His resignation as an executive will be ten- dered shortly. TRAZEE LEFT $50,000. NEW YORK, June 14 (#).—Harry H.
