The games were “pip- pins,” each one abounding in excite- ment, and the big crowd on hand re- ceived many thrills during the night. The home team took the first and third games by margins of 9 and 2 pins respectively. The second game was a walkover, mainly through the fine work of Hines who hit the wood for a score of 140. This player led all others for high total, amassing 346 for the night's work. Daly was high man for the yisitors. In the Factory league match, the Stanley Works defeated the New Brit- ain Machine company twice. Cusack, who has been rolling in brilliant man- ner throughout the season, established a new league record for single score, when in the final game of the match he toppled the pins for a score of 143. His total score of 323 was high for the match.
