DOHINIGRUNNER UP INEASTERN LEAGUE (Continued From First P:@°) 13, winning by a margin of one maarble. In the third game there was & great deal of wild shooting on the part of both boys and it seemed as though Dominic was about to alip again. He pulled himself together and took 10 out of 13 from the Pennsylvania boy, giving him second place in the Eastern league and win- ning an Illinois Marquis strap watch. Johnnie Presch of the New Britain Herald aiso was a prize win- ner at a banquet tendered the visit- ing newspaper representatives and the marble shooters at the Ocean City Yacht club last night. Johnnie was given a five pound box of salt water taffy as first prize for catch- ing the largest number of crabs on the boat on which he was fishing ‘Tuesday afternoon. Cartelli won third prize on the same boat and was awarded an electric lantern. Dominic's record is nothing to be ashamed of, although he feels rather downcast. Monday he was a popular favorite for the national champion. ship and won all six games ke played. Five of these he won on his own merits as a shooter, the sixth being due largely to false plays by his opponent. During this sixth same Dominic's playing was nothing to brag about. Bad Day Ruined Chances ‘Tuesday morning he seemed to go all to pieces. The poorest shooters in the league were too much for him. He just couldn’'t shoot, H: confessed later to Johnnie Presch, his chum and traveling companion, that he would aim at one marbly and hit another. Every opponent took him into camp for one or more games. Two out of eight he won by accident, the other six he lost to players whose own shooting was mediocre. It was the mystery of the boardwalk. Dominic's standiag previously as a arble player had been such that a Poughkeepsie news-, paperman waa heard to say “If we can go home saying we were able to take just onc game from New Brit- ain we will be satisfied.” It was obvious that Dominic was trying hard. His famous smilg was gone, He saw or heard nothing hut the game. His teeth were clenched and his jaw stuck out in grim fight- ing mood. But the marbles wouldn't get in front of his shooter. Tha easiest shots in the game he misszd and hard ones were just out of the Question. Discouraged But Determined ,On the verge of tears the New Britzin boy kept shooting, but to no avail. He closed the day's program ‘with the knowledge that the leagna championship which had been hin for the asking the day before, was nmow a forlorn hope and only a miracle could save it. The miracle almost happened. ‘That afternoon the boys went for & acht ride and a crab fishing expedi- tion. Presch had been made Dom. inic's second and was official cus- tedian of Dominic's favorite shooter. Johnnie sat on the side of the deck, letting his feet hang down and fish>d for crabs, incidentally getting more than anyone else on the boat. When the boat returned Johnnie's cloth- ing was wet and a strong odor of alcohol pervaded the air. It was the alcohol Dominic used to rub on his shoeting fingers. Johnnie had sat on the bottle, knecked the cork out and spilled the alcohel. Dominic was thoughttul. T didn't use alcohol Monday but T did Tuesday, maybe that's what spoiled my game.” The alcohol wan all gone, so Dominic shot without it usirg powdered chalk and sand on his fingers instead. As & result Dominic won every game he played except one on Wednesday and lost that one by accident. His #hooter stopped in the ring. when he was practically sure of the game. ‘The other roy knocked his shooter out. This gave Dominic's eppon=nt the game 13-0. despite the fact that DPeninic already had five of the seven he needcd for victory. During the forenoon Dominic re- ceived two special delivery letters from a friend back home. The let. ters secemed to cheer him up and help restore the confidence he lost after Tuesday's game.

Had Dominic shot as he did Monday and Wednesday there is no doubt that he would have won 18 out of 20. His record for the two days was one lost out of 12 played. As it is, he won 13 out of 20, while the league leader, a Camden boy, only got 14 out of 20. ‘Wednesday's games . were played in a light rain which followed an all night downpour. Heavy waves on the ocean caused the dropping of plans for deep sea fishing in the afternoon. Wednesday Dominic and Johnnie went bathing in the ocean. Dominic is somewhat more cheerful since he has been congratulated upon his ng. Playing off the tie was the last game. Dominic will play in this tournament. Last night as guests of the combined civic clubs and Chamber of Commerce, Dominic and Johnnie as well as the Herald cor- respondent joined the rest of the party at a banquet at the Ocean City Yacht club headquarters. Go Getters At Ocean City The spirit of community service and welcome to guests as preached by civic clubs is more than a the- ory in Ocean City. Business men who belong to civic clubs are on the grounds or at press headquar- ters or general headquarters at all times ready to do anything poasible. The Chamber of Commerce secre- tary also is community publicity agent and gets an annual appropri- ation of $40,000 for community pub- licity alone. He is a former circus publicity man and is familiar with New Britain. He is on the job every minute and arranging a program of entertain- ment s0 that everyone has somc. thing to do. The Herald corre- spondent who is chairman of the social committee, has not even found it necessary to call the com- mittee together. The Chamber of Commerce secretary and publicity expert does the work. Some instances of Ocean City's attitude towards its guests: A party of five newspapermen and boys started to walk to the business cen- ter. They asked a policeman how far it was. “Nine blocks if you tried to walk it,” said the police- man, “but wait a moment.” The policeman called to the captain of a U. 8. coast guard corps, “Hey, Cap, these boys are on their way down town." A few minutes later a coast guard automobile took them to the.r destination. A newspaperman went into the largest sporting goods store in the city to see if he could rent some fishing tackle. ‘“You can’t rent any, but we'll see that you get all yon need,” said the proprietor. Several outfits were sent to the Anglers' club, the most exclusive fishing club on the boardwalk. The pier w thrown open to the guests. The jcity piermaster himselt gave his jtime to teaching the boys how io fish from the pier, while the sport- ing goods dealer, and two fellow Ro- tarians, a real estate man, and the owner of a large proportion of the boardwalk property stayed on the pier until midnight helping the ama- teur fishers, Another bell boy captain to call him a taxi. “Why call a taxi, my car's right oui- side,” was the answer., The captain used his own car for the newspa- Foulsrd Ties $1.50 Hendkerchiofe 75108150 This summer close attention has been devoted to harmonizing shades in clothes and haberdashery.
