The pair went to Murphy & Hird's alleys in Plainville last night and rolled five games. Spinella came out on top and after the duckpin games, Spinella volled exhibition matehes with Irank v of ew Britain with the big pins, This apparcntly is Spinclla’s real game and he is a wonder at rolling them down the lancs, bowling the fans Tonight's matches should be pro- ductive of some real cxcitement, A large gathering of howling fans from Hartford is coming down to the Casino alleys tonight to watel the pair finish up theiv series of 60 games.

Ior years nothing but the big pins held the in- terest of the fans there, but since Spinella and Anderson showed their wares, word comes from New York that hundreds are flocking to the al- Jeys and are shooting at the wooden ducks. More skill is required with the small pins than with the big oncs and the scores don't mount up so cagily. The man who can maintain i average of over 100 for any length of time, is consldercd an ex- traordinarily good bowler, The gen- eral run of bowlers hit in between 30 and 100, the these skill cognized in Jerson' parts, but I's prow known He is the most clever men with both the smal and hig balls that the fans have seen here. one of Guards basketball team is fal on a real tartar Sat- nrday night in the person of the Meriden National Guards.

TFOR RES W/hen it’s Christmas Eve—and the glisten- ing tree is ready and trimmed with gifts and toys—when the peace and good cheer of Christmas are almost here —have a Camel! WHEN the happy work of Christmas Eve is done. And the clock calls the approach of midnight. When the gifts and toys are in their place on the children’s tree—have a Camel! For to those who think of others there is no other gift like Camel. Camel makes every great day greater, increases the gladness in giving, makes life’s anticipations brighter. Before Camel, no cigarette ever was so good. Camels are made of such choice tobaccos, are so skilfully blended, that they never tire the taste, or leave a cigaretty after-taste. Into the making of this one cigarette goes all of the skill of the largest tobacco organization in the world. So on this Christmas Eve, when your work for others is done—when you're too glad for sleep with thoughts of tomorrow’s happiness, oh, then—taste the smoke that every day brings contentment to so many millions. Know the mellowest mildness, the most rich and fragrant taste that ever was put into a cigarette. Have a Camel! Camels represent the utmost in cigarette quality. The choicest of Turkish and domestic tobaccos are blended into Camels by master blenders and the finest of French cigarette paper is made especially for them. Our highest wish, if you do not yet know Camel quality, is that you try them. We invite you to compare Camels 01923 with any cigarette made at any prices Itis well to remember your few closest friends with a supply of Camels for Christmas Day and “the days to cartons now and come. Get.your Camel then they will be ready! R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co, SALESMAN $AM ASINO TONIGHT Barney Spinella of Brooklyn, N. Y. Champion Duck Pin Bowler of New York State VS.
