Bar- | rister was fortunate to win one game from Stansbury when Speer struck and counted eight to | win the game by six pins. Naval, rolling a double-header, lost the first three ames to the lowly King Solomon team | and then showed a complete reversal of form to win all three from Parker. | O'Brein, Naval's lead-off man, smashed the maples for a 381 set. King Sol- omon pulled out of the cellar, Parker was also the victim of Hiram, losing all three. Mertz, Hiram's anchor man, stood out with a 358 set. New Jerusalem climbed into a tie for | The lead by winning two from Joppa. A last-box spare by Charlie Wire kept New Jerusalem out of undisputed pos- session of first place. Petworth was | taken into camp by La Fayette for all three when Malcom Watson charmed the pins for a set of 379. His monkey spare and a nine-count won the second game in the last box. King David's rollers_looked like world-beaters when they shot games of 560, 575 and 575 to take Whiting for the works. Miller Huggins had & powerful 385 and was ably assisted by Charlie Phillips with | 360. Low Score Good Enough. St. John's took the odd one from Congress when Earl Keeler looked like his old self for the first time this sea- | son. He chalked up 360.

It's rather a tough as- signment to trim a guy in his own back yard, and that's what the teams visiting the Hyattsville Arcade are find- ing out. Cornell's Lunch is the latest victim of the suburbanites. Minus the famous | Henry, and also “Boots” Halloran, who is indefinitely out because of a heart attack, Hyattsville scored a sweep over Ken Thorpe’s team, which dropped to fourth place. “Brud” Kessler led. his club to victory with a set of 381.

Paul Harrison continued to blaze away, counting 380, which included a game of 151. Megaw and Friend stuck in some timely counts in the last game, which pulled it out of the fire. ~ Pet- worth totaled 583 to win the first. Meyer Davis swamped King Pin in the first skirmish with a_game of 630, then faltered, allowing the leaders to take the last two handily.

COLUMBIANS ROLL FVE 50" SCORES Unbroken String of Large Counts Fails to Gain, Single Victory. F you note a member of the Colum- bian team of the Washington Ladies’ League looking a bit goofey these days don't blame it on pro=- hibition. The girls have had a panch, or several, right enough, but not that kind. ‘They were given a series of jolts by old boy jinx that nearly knocked ‘em goggle-eyed. re this: The Columbians set up a rict record by scoring over 500 in five consecutive league games but lost every one of them. Usually a score of 500 is good enough to win. The Columbians were remark- ably unlucky. They shot 527 to start the sensational streak and the Beeques chose that spot to drop in a 564 count, the season’s highest. The Columbians came back with 518, but the Beeques rolled 543. In the last of the set the Columbians got 511 and the Beeques 518. It was the only time in the history of the game that two opposing girls’ teams beat 500 in every me. nln their next match the Columbians encountered the Commercials. It ap- peared the losing streak would end ‘when the Columbians again pushed over the 500-mark, but Lorraine Gulli, the Commercial anchor, up and spared in the last box and the Columbians lost this one, 509 to 511. They dropped the next, 559 to 526. By this time, the Columbians were getting punch drunk. “T sa; gurgled Rene Levy, captain, “if we can’t win with 500 let's try a punk score.” So the girls rolled 439—and won! Before the Columbians hit the record- breaking pace they were in first place. Now they're second and four games behind the Beeques. In each of their last five matches the Columbians have totaled more than 1,500 and this, too, is a record. Prized Jinx Story. But the Columbians lost not only the league leadership. They were shorn of other laurels. Rena had the high set with 347 until the match with the Beeques. In this Catherine Quigley shot 350 and Lorraine Gulli, her play~ mate, .ted the nrdec%'d ':ol:flg Peggy Babcock ai ‘apt. Levy were tied for high game with 145 and Lor- raine topped this with 148. The set record was smashed again in the Columbians’ next match when Vir- ginia Yarnell, of the Commercials, rolled 354. Miss Yarnell also holds high set in the District Ladies’ League '“Eh 3‘5€h i " ven their enemies are sympathizing with the Columbians. Their hard-luck tale is an epic.
