Shooter and John . Anchor Man BY R. D. THOMAS. it be courage or of imagination that enables some men to de- liver normally in a pinch #s a question for the nut doctor, who might find interesting sub- ml among Washington's best lers. A case simple of diagnosis was that of Nervous Bill Rider, who eaptained the lowly Goodfellows of the District League before the war, but was inserted from time to time into some of the city’s strongest line-ups, the famous Royals. Rider never was a star ?ln;he‘_ng: the best, fiafi'% '::'::o‘;tc.ny Bt e ever rose above mediocrity. He was a man of slight stature, approaching mid- notably the | ago. Baum the Greatest of All Time. consulted thorities, n his own store of facts and jons covering the time from duckpin urumur days and named an all-time -star line-up of Wash- ington bowlers whose careers spanned 10 years or mon At anchor placed John Baum. Nobody ever hll disputed the choice, although thc others in Isemann’s line- up were H. B. Halley, Glenn Wolsten- holme, Johll L. Vaeth and Harry Krauss. OWARD CAMPBELL, present cap- tain of the King Pins, is an anchor man of the Baum type and owns the distinction of having made the most im) t last- frame spare ever re- corded. It won a national champion- ship for his team and the national all- events crown for himself two seasons . While spectators shivered with excitement he hit a single pin plumb in the middle. When Glenn Wolstenholme was at the height of his fame as a stake shooter the observation was made by many, “That fellow has no nerves.” Glenn's face was e nless and he didn't dle age; of a kindly disposition seldom | g found in consistent sport victors, and in & mechanical sense he had little to fecommend him as a bowler. He rolled slow hook, painstakingly delivered, and one that was difficult to adapt to varying alley conditions. When hitting the pocket it brought no more spare breaks or strikes than the simpler de- Uveries. But militating most against Rider as 8 duckpin competitor was extreme nerv- ousness. At the same time it helped advertise the man's gameness. Royal captain, Halty 3.
