TOURNEY Omaha Will Do Part Toward Swell- ing List at the National Ten Pin Shoot. HUGE SUM TO BE ROLLED FOR Large posters advertising the American Bowliug Congress tournament have been | received at the local alleys. This season's | hig event, the largest of all tournaments will be held in Toledo, commencing March |4 and continuing until March 25. Toledo is rapidly rounding into shape, definite plans for the mammoth affair and it is expected that the big event will attract the greatest entry of any bowling tournament ever held. The prize fund itself will pass the $30,00 mark with the participants bowling about 27,000 gamea to decide who will walk away with the greatest pot of money ever bowled for. Toledo is preparing to handle over 3,000 bowlers who will take part in three events, the five men, the two men and the single events. The outlay to handle a tournament of this character is about $25,000 and takes the constant efforts of a score of hustiers for a whole year to shape the policy of a successful tournament, and pay the prizes off within twenty-four hours after the last ball has been rolled. Toledo alone will enter 200 teams. Chi- cago, closest by, will have an entry passing the 100 mark. St. Louls, Cleve- land, Detroit, Columbus, Milwaukee, Day- ton, Cincinnati, Tndianapolis and numer- large entries. These combined with such citios as Grand Rapids, Kansas City, Des Moines, Sjoux City, 8t. Paul, Minneapoll Louisville, Buffalo, Pittaburgh, Washing- {ton and Omaha, with smaller entries, will bring the total entry up beyond the 600 mark Omaha will enter five teams this year. The Metz, Storz, Juxus, Jette ol Age of Omaha and Jetter's Old Age of SBouth Omaha, will make the trip. | Those teams are made up with the best pin tooplers In the city and should make a good showing agafn this year. Last year at Peoria, the Btorz attracted nation-wide attention by rolling into {eighth place out of the 518 teams, en- tered, a feat to be proud of. No Omahs teams have asked for dates yet, but will do ®so soon. Kntries are already pouring into Secre- tary Abe Langtry's office at this early date, practically all Saturday and Sun- day dates already being reserved. The famous Cabanne team of St, Louls was the first to enter, this being their custom the last eight American Bowling con- gress tournaments.

Italy put up a good defense against the American firemen Saturday night. A red- headed youth was detected in the Itallan lineup last night and apparently he put some pep into the lads from the sunny country. 'Twas rumored he came from Cork—not in Italy—but no matter where he comes from, he proved a boon to the Ttalians, for it took the fire laddies sev~ enteen minutes and fifty-one seconds to dislodge his flery top and the rest of the swarthy team.

Ames took the lead early in the first half and Kan- sas played on the offensive almost throughout the entire game. Only twice were the Jayhawkers ahead, though the ore was tied four times. Superior team work and passing ability spelled victory for Ames. The Kansans were unable to Intercept the long passes of the Iowans and time after time the v itors scored after phenomenal tossing down the fleld. Tomilson, an Ames guard, and Holmes, the Iowa center, were the most useful cogs in the Aggie machine, It is significant that the Kansas for- wards falled to make a single goal dur- ing the first half, all of the Jayhawkers' scores being done by the guards.
