BY R. D. THOMAS. ORTY of the city's leading south- paw bowlers will go to post tonight at the Northeast Templ One of the youngest entrants in The Star tournament and a lad to be reck- oned with is Leonard Handcock of 1439 Monroe street northwest, who has no league affiliation. !;!eunmrd. who is 17, half made the grade the other day at the Arcadia in an attempt to set a world record. He had a score of 126 in the fifth frame. Could he have done as well in the las’ five boxes his score would have been 252. As it was, he finished with 168, gotting into trouble in the late frames. He started the game with four consecu- tive strikes. Young Handcock totaled 319 for two games, the 169 being preceded by a 150. He shot ths games in practice for a special match to be contested at the Arcadia scon by the Arcadia Midgets #nd a picked team from the Centra! iligh Schocl League. % Eandeock's 160 may win h'm the prize of a ton of coal given for high score each we'k at the Arcadia Ths chap who won it last week, Doying of the Ben! ' League, is an apartment dweller and became a tempozary coa! merchant. n's record mads nearly two 5 has just coms to light. A of 442, the third highest rolled ves shot by Harold Hodges at the Strike in ths Baptist Young Pe:- ple’s Unicn League. Charli» Phillips, with 453 the soni~ League, and 3 , with 445 in the Agricui- tural Interbureau T.eague. are th> on'y others to beat 440, Hodges' string was 151. 147 and 144. The national record is 461. achieved by A. Monta- gano at Providence, R. I, last season. Indicetions are that many sets will be rolled this sseson than in any of the past. One is recorded meet caily. Latest to join tha sel class is Needle of the Takoma team in the Masonic Leagus, with & score of 404, made with games of 132, 122 and 159. Needie could have wsed thcse strings to excellent advantage in The Star :?lummem. to be rolled on ths same evs. Red Morgan, who is averaging better than 120 in the District League and is out to set a record for that circuit, picked up on his average when his team, Convention Hall, whitewashed Stanford Paper Co. Red's total was 377. It was an unusual match. Every individual game was 100 or better. Mec- Philomy and Smith of Stanford came near spoiling the score sheet when in the second game each gathered an even 100 sticks. ‘The crack Veterans' Bureau team in the Ladies’ Federal League had to use a dummy when Navy was met, and the handicap was too much. Navy won the first two games, and only a spurt by Peggy Babcock and Lorraine Guili saved the final. What promises to be one of the best rolled girls’ matches of the season is that scheduled for tonight at the Recre- ation with the Recreations of the Dis- trict Ladies’ League meeting the Bal- timore Regents. The Recreations are champions of their league, and the Re- gents are said to be the strongest team of girls yet to represent the Monumental City. Rena Levy, Catherine Quigley, Billle Williams, Pauline Bradburn and Anna MecCormack will shoot for the Recreation. The match, which was an- nounced erroneously for the Coliseum, will start at 8 o'clock. Another intercity battle will be fought at the Queen Pin tonight by Baltimore and Washington bowlers. This will bring together the leading Elks pin shooters of the two ecities, with Charles Manley, Joseph Haggerty, Perry, Baum and Chris Sproesser representing this city. It will be the opening match of the Tri-State Elks League, in which Washington, Balti- more, Annapolis, Cumberland, Fred- erick, Hagerstown and Delaware will have teams. Charles A.
