BY R. D. THOMAS. ARRY I. CARROLL, downtown magnate, today pledged his hearty support to The Wash- ington Star's second annual inaividual bowling tournament, to be held at Convention Hall starting December 26. At the same time he handed in his entry. “Nothing more could be asked by the oowler in the way of a tournament,” sald the Recreation, Coliseum and Grand Central proprietor, who con- tinued: “He has opportunity to win a rich rize and it costs him no more than e would pay to roll a practice set.” This latter is a point not emphasized on the posters proclaiming the Yuletide tournament, which decorated all alleys in the city and its suburbs today. The “entrance fee” of one berry for men and 60 cents for women noted on them is a bit inaccurate. This tax is merely the cost of the games to be rolled. If & bowler intends to shoot five games during the holidays, or three in the case of & woman, he or she would have something to gain and nothing to lose by paying for them in advance. by entering The Star tournament. ‘To Harry Z. Greer, president of the ‘Washington City Duckpin Association, goes the distinction of ‘”‘“fi the first entrant. He signed the first entry blank off the press. Leo Rinaldi, captain of the Grand Palace Valet team which will meet the Connecticut Ali-Stars in'a teams, dou- bles and singles match, is in a quandary. ‘When and where to shoot the Washing- ton end of the affair are questions he has yet to decide. The Connecticut bowlers have left it all up to him. He has borrowed Howard Campbell from the Lucky Strike to roll the singles against the colorful Jack White and, therefore, feels that the establishment of which Howard is the pilot is, in a measure, due the attraction. On the other hand, he wants to accommodate as many spectators as possible and, vies the matter from this angle, sev- eral of alleys are more suitable than the big Fourteenth street place. The opening block of games probably will be rolled in Connecticut during the Christmas holidays. It will be an expensive match for Rinaldi, who will foot the expenses of the trip. He said today that no effort to offset the cost would be made by charging an admission fee, a custom followed when the old Convention Hall team played host to visiting stars. Entries are flowing in for the south- paw tournament to be held at the Northeast Temple and Coliseum. The flvo:l:; is Al Work, holde; of the world Tecord for a single game—208—although the famous ice man is not shooting as well as of yore. Another popular can- didate for the forkhand crown is Lefty Goodall, who is an exceptional tourna- ment performer. Then there's Arlie Webb, one of the few bowlers who has Tolled a 200 hardwood duckpin score, Several vears ago Arlie got hot in an independent game at the Arcadia and chalked up an even 200. Not the least formidable Jéfthander is ux&:fle !;l:r;mfi the Coliseum man- ager, though he bowls only-oceasionally. In a recent discussion of Stars of oulgr years, Dave Cox of the Wecreation League and several others held that Lonnie was almost the equal of his brother, the far-famed Harry. To this we feel constrained to take exception. ‘The Harry Krauss of 15 or 20 years ago today would be the top-ranker of ‘em all. He used to hang up erage regularly without trying. It is an old American custom to hearken back to the stars of other years and call them the greatest of all. In Washington now are half a dozen duckpin maulers who are almost as good as bowlers get. yet we fecl that Harry Krauss and Johnny Vaeth, in their rime, would be the ‘Those two d the works. Max Rosenberg is getting set for a laugh. He was kidded on a large scale when his brilliant Northeast Temple line-up failed to “burn up” the District League in the first month or so of the campaign, as promised. It dropped match after match, and Maxie kept promising, “We'll get going, and when we do, it'll be curtains for the rest.” Sure enoum, his team got started, Leagus and now the e are where Max, Red Megaw, Friend, Joe Mulroe and Paulle will stop. They're now within distance of the leading King Pins, following a three-game victory over the strong Cornell Lunch team, in which they shot a score of 1,782. have had big sets in every one of the last half dozen matches. Joe Mulroe and Georgie Friend were best for the Temples, and Dutch New- man shone for the Cornells. Hi Passes Are Used To Advance Ball BY SOL METZGER.

At any rate we all hope the new era, if any, begins about next March and will welcome the sight of a flock of piledrivers, dredges and workmen all busily engaged in ifting the timeworn face of the chan- nel.

The club will change all this and add a real beauty spot. to a waterfront =adly lacking in this respect. It is expected that early Spring will find most of the club fleet at this location. Work of cleafing the land is soon to begin and they hope to start dredging operations in a short time. Capt.

We hardly recognized Clarence Hall's Kestrel under her Winter canvas. The Imatra, owned by Frank Williams, is also here with Mr, Stockett’s Who-ee. Our 'visit to these parts assured us that the turkey situ- ation is far from bad, the recent Wall Street flurry having no eff>ct on the supply. Evidently no one sold turkey short.

The Anna is now moored abreast of the park wall opposite the fish wharf, where she was placed by the Harbor Police. We are convinced of the truth of the old skipper’s tale of wrongs and injustice. However, if he should transpire to b> a rogue, both the Coast Guard and myself should be ateful and assist him on hi for having something to write they because if there were none such, they would have to take up knitting or tatting, jobs being scarce as they are. * kK % IKE WERBACK, our local boat- builder, must have had a pros- perous season.
