4 ROSENBERG’S VENGEANCE - COUP REACHES A CRISIS Needs All Three Games of Battle Next Friday to Get the Laugh on Fans and Foes Who Showered Him With Razzberries. BY R. D. THOMAS. H This was a national bowling together in a common cause. But next Friday night—— OWARD CAMPBELL and Max Rosenberg were thick as Damon and Pythias (on the surface) when, last night, they lined up with other shock troops at Convention Hall to repel an in- vasion of Connecticut’s fanciest sharpshooters. war and Howard and Max were Walit, that’s ahead of the story. Last Fall when Max Rosenberg took charge of the Northeast Temple bowling establishment one of his avowed intentions was to organize a team so strong it would crush all else in the powerful District League. Max had several principal in several warm and indecisive feuds. scores to settle. In some-the issues were confused. One couldn’t tell whether the boys were engaged in & struggle of sport or one of personalities, or both. Anyhow, the always redoubtable Max was determined to come out on top all around and he chose the most effective and quickest means to that end. A District League triumph for him would/ be humilation for all those ag'in him. That’s how he felt about it, at any rate. So he called in Red Megaw, Georgie Friend, Paul Harrison and Joe Mulroe— whizbangs all—and added his own fliustrious name to the line-up. There was trepidation throughout the ranks of the District League. “Wow, what a team!” piped th~ fans. King Pins Annoyed. Chiefly interested among the enemy teams was that representing the King Pin. For several seasons the King Pins had been close to winning the most coveted of duckpin pennants, only to falter in the stretch or have a rival “go wild” and outdistance them. But this, they reckoned, would be their year. The great Convention Hall team assembled by Harry K. Burtner, which had won three pennants in a row, had disbanded and left it to the King Pins to rule the roost, or so it appeared. ‘Then Maxie the Bowling Master planned his coup. Perhaps it was overconfidence, maybe it was a lack of hearty team spirit, more likely it was simply a case of prolonged tough luck, but the Temples, those feared Temples who were going to “bust the District League wide open,” as one of their supporters put it, floun- dered for weeks near the bottom of the standing. It was to laugh. The knowing fans did. S did certain groups of District of these were suspected of directing the mirth mainly up their sleeves. Even befofe the campaign opened it was reckoned by all concerned that the championship fight would be confined to the Temples and King Pins. Yet after one turn around the circuit the King Pins were so far in front that the Temples were being counted down and done as pennant contenders. observers were conceding a King Pin victory. They were quite sure when the rivals met, and the Temples could win only one game. Maxie Rosenberg bided his time and kept his team shooting its durndest. Finally it clicked. One rung after another the Temples climbed until they were only one re- moved from the King Pins. They met again and this time the Temples scored a clean sweep! ‘The King Pins’ advantage was whit- tled to almost nothing. At times the rivals virtually were tied. Can’t Be a Deadlock. ‘Then the King Pins picked up a two-game lead and that's the way they stand now. The last battle of the District League season will be fought next Friday night at the Lucky Strike. Those who framed the schedule may have known a thing or two when they arranged that it be between the King Pins and Temples. At_anchor for the King Pins will be Capt. Howard Campbell; for the ‘Temples, Max Rosenberg. ‘There can be no tie for the pennant. Unless the Temples win three games the flag will go to the King Pins on total pins, in which they have too heavy & margin to overcome. And should the Temples splash the whitewash—ah, how much that would League bowlers, most heartily, and some mean to Max Rosenberg) Chips From the Mapleways EY BOSTON shot his third 400 set of the season when the Cubs won the odd game from Patent Office to clinch fourth place in the Recreation League. Dey's games were 151, 100 and 155, & total of 415. The Rex team, which had & chance for fourth place, lost three games to Lo Ko Bervice, despite the splendid bowling of Abe Beavers, who shot 125, 126 and 159 for a set of 411. It was Abe’s second 400 performance. In all nineteen 400s were rolled this season in the Recreation League and it is believed this is a record. Oniy three games separate the first five teams in the Typothetae League. There's a shakeup in the standings weekly. Judd & Detweiler jumped into second place by winning two from Big Print _Shop, which fell into a tie with Potomac Electrotypers for third. Potomac dropped & set to H-K Ad- vertising. Postponed matches may settle the pennant squabble. ‘With six matches to go, Mount Pleas- ant holds a two-game margin over Golden Rule in section A of the Odd Fellows League. Both the leaders have been knocking down all opposition. The section A fight is close and the pennant issue promises to be in doubt until the last set. Jack Rodgers and Bill Lohmar tied with 143 for the best game of the week, | with Rodgers having 371 for high set. Norman Groff totaled 364; W. Mason, 352; Howard Campbell, 348; C. H. Groff, 349, and W. Cowell and Tobey, 348 each. A last box spare by Malcolm Watson ‘won the odd game for La Fayette Lodge from National, and gave La Fayette un- disputed hold on first place in the Ma- sonic League. Singleton, which had been tied for the top spot, won only one game from Hiram, which is the high average team of the giant league. New Jerusalem lost a golden oppor- tunity to advance by dropping two to Petworth, Pratt being the big shot for the winners with a set of 367. Money of Whiting Lodge rolled 178 against Naval for the high game of the season. It was a brilliant effort, but Money wasn't satisfled. He blew two single pin spares, which in all prob- ability would have given him an all- time District record. One of the breaks followed a triple-header strike. Kent of Mount Pleasant won a game from Osiris with a triple-header in the last frame. Following are those who rolled 350 or better during the week: Money, 362; Simon, 355; Pratt, 367; G. Wolstenholm, 360; Falls, 354, and Speer, 350. Hot doings are promised this week in the Southern Railway Clerks' League, when the two Purchasing teams meet not only to decide who's to lead the league, but rule the Purchasing office roost. The No. 1 team is two games in front. Season's records for game and set were established by Miscellaneous in the Internal Revenue League, Wwith scores of 625 and 1,740, Special Advisory was a 2-1 victim. Jimmie Jolliffe of the winners. equaled the individual game record with 156 and totaled 384. Capt. Morsell, with a s(t‘: of 346, wl; a big help in piling up the team records. BPy wB\nlng three from Consolidated Returns the leading Annex No. 1 team picked up a game on the runner-up. Miscellaneous. Brown and Davis were best for Annex, with 361 and 348, and Earl Lewis led the losers, with 349. A nine-pin spare in the tenth frame by Larsen of Grace Episcopal was the highlight of competition in the George- town Church League. It won the odd game from Congress Street M. P.

Last week’s contests brought about a tle for first place between these two, 3 the Recreations, defending champs, los- ing two to Convention Hall and the Blicks whitewashing the Queen Pins. Convention Hall won the odd game when Jean Welch shot 120, Margaret Leamon, 112; Peggy Babcock, 113, and Thelma Clark, 109. Prances Heil accounted for _the Blicks’ first win over the Queen Pins and Helen Whitbeck's 125 was a telling blow in the capture of the second. With C. & P. Telephone home with the pennant, interest in the Commercial League centers in the fight for runner- up honors between The Evening Star and Standard Oil. ‘Woodward & Lothrop, United States Daily and Diamond Cab, in a three- way tle, are scrapping to get out of the cellar. Ofl and Mining outstripped 23 other teams to win the Audit and Review League pennant by a comfortable mar- gin, but the individual championship race was so close that Official Scorer Earl Lewis checked up carefully to make sure of the result. He found himself four sticks behind Budjako for first” place. Budjako of Section G-1 averaged 105-61 for 75 games and Lewis for the same number of strings had 105-57. Clarencs Charest’s 361 helped the Athletics establish a team set record in the General Counsel League of 1,592. ‘The Braves have won 21 of their last 27 games and now are only 3 games out of first place. On the most eventful night of the Knights of Columbus .League season Leo Diegelman of the Trinidads shot hlldhhfuntlz and :el with 174 lnotl‘ :0! an s team got the top game 28 and high set of 1,677. Diegelman started his big game with four straight strikes and then became unlucky. He shot lots of wood to pile up the score. A late rally enabled the Reformation team to make a clean sweep of its match with St. Marks in the Lutheran League and set two season records, a 1,697 set and 611 game. Charley Barnard spared in the last box to win the final game. Zanner of St. Marks made 3 strikes and 11 spares to total 365. the Ladies’ District League | GO, 40, Biack Lula, Hishly, Hogan, Gréy Nann, Alg 3 Crystal Domino, Als 0 ran—R: Rochester. 15 131 25 18 131 32 SECTION C-3. e w2 N5aRE S aSER Siariein B cmie SNNGE S EEER 121 28 121 i3 131 ANNEX No. 1 2 13 19 60 3 3 72 19 128 308 7 17 131 SECTION C-1. 130 29 131 23 128 16 23 101-26 00-7 96-39 sec ird. {htess Peroxide, Roly Boy: Miss Dinwiddle, Molly Anne’s Own and Tea 5o thira ain or Shine, Cloudy, Theo.
