BUFPALO, March 14.—I"ive teams from Greater New York are scheduled to shoot in the American Bowling Congress tournament at the Auditor- jum this evening, and New York's hope of bringing home the champion- ship of the 1921 contest lies in the ability of these tenpin experts to bunch their strikes and get their spares in such a munner as to outdo the best that the bowlers of other | cities in the country have to offer. Billie Cordes has a corking good team in the Grand Central of Brook- lyn, on which are such good bowlers as Glenn Riddell, Jack Tietjen, Carl) Engelke and others. Louis Stein of the Broadway. Arcade has the Broad- way Arcades all primed for their very best effort. Then there is the crack Orpheum Five, captained by Phil Spinella, one of the very best match game bowlers in the country; the Broadways of Brooklyn, headed by Ruddie Schumacher, on which are some of the very best tenpinners that Brooklyn boasts of, and lust but not least Newark's Best Five, who are all least Newark’s Best Five, who we are told are all that their name implies- “Uncle Joe” Thum and his partner in the doubles, Henry Ward Mac- Lolian, lost a match game for the suppers to Fred Beiderbecke and P. C, Tackney at the Auditorium when these two teams met in the “doubles” and “singles.” ‘The joke of the thing was that “Uncle Joe” and his part- ner were under the impression that they had won the contest until after they had enjoyed a feast, when it , ing the fans who braved the weather was discovered that their total was exactly twenty pins less than that of Beiderbecke and his partner. Fred Chaleraft and Frank Caruana of Buffalo are matched to roll fifty games in blocks of ten for a purse of $2,000. ‘The opening game is to be rolled April 2 at John G. Floss's alleys. The drives are to be planed before the opening game and after the twenty-fifth game a new set of tempins are to be used. A Chicago booster at the meeting of the A. B. C. told the delegates that when the delegates got ready to send the A. B. C, to Chicago that city would be sure to line up 1,000 entries for the tournament. Chicagois bowl- ing mad at present, and that is no doubt that it could muster that number of teams for an A. B. C. tour- nament held in the “Windy City.” It has been said on good authority that Buffalo will be represented by at least one team in the Interstate bowling tournament to be rolled at Thum’s White Blephant Bowling Academy, New York, ‘commencing May 2, Other New York State cities wil also be well represented in the contest, New York was honored by having Jimmie Wilson, President of the New York Bowling Association, elected to the Executive Board of the American | Bowling Congress, Jimmie was called B. | C. delegates that the New York bow!- | ers are very well pleased with heir | membership in the A.

Being certain of gaining his best form early in the season Rip tay prove quite handy in the campaign against impotent Eastern teams be- fore the vider men are fully warmed w their ask. To hear Mays, Quina, Shawkey, et al, though, one might be led to believe that the creaking vet- erans don't need any help from um pitious youngsters. All the seasoned pitchers assert they will get a flying start, Both of the games played with the Shreveport team over the week end resulted in favor of the Yanks. The contests gave Huggins a good line on just how much progress the young pitchers have made. They also gave Shreveport fans a glimpse at Babe Ruth in his two extremes, his worst und his best. Babe smiled his way through three strikeouts fon Saturday, and thust made admiring fans even more anx- fous to applaud the three home, s and three singles he made igh trips to the plate yesterday. sie three men on buses, Babe kride the ball through the window of # street car, thus giving the fans a vod run-for their money. In all bis baseball career ho has made only a stingy few circuit wal- lops with the bases full. ‘The pitchers won't let bim, for ove thing. The last ct Bube's collection yesterday sailed high over the fence in left centre, also a unique hit for Bambino, who seldom reaches that far toward the uhitd base side of the diamond. The park was comfortably filled when the teams clashed on Saturday, but rain that fell right up to game time limited yesterday's attendance to about 1,200. The fleld was in mis- erable condition and the game was ayed only to keap from disappoint- to attend. The wet ball undoubtedly hus its 11 effect upon the work of the young Yankee pitcher. All things consid- ered, however, the fact remains that Bill’ Piercy and Ferguson, whe worked on Saturday, are leagues apd leagues ahead of Doyle, Clifford and Johnson, who performed yesterday. Doyle's. work was impressive at times and Huggins probably will keep him on the Yankee bench this seasou If Doyle should be sent to the minors there will be a powerful rope fastenéd to him to snatch him back for another trial in tHe fall. Bill Piercy showed everything a good pitcher should have. He curved the ball from the very first, being enabled to do so by the fact that he has played all winter in California. He is certain of a place on the Ya kee reserve staff and may play quite an important role in one way or a: other before the season ends. Piercy allowed the Gassers only ane hit in five innings. Ceci! Ferguson also worked with gratifying success on Saturday. Frank Roth has taken Ferguson under his capable ,and experienced wing. ‘He says the young Jerseyman should be one of the ‘most reliable re- lief men in the league this season. And Frank’s word goes a long way in baseball. | wisdes IES U.S. AIRMEN BARRED BY CANADA ON MAY 1 The Manufacturers’ Aircraft AS#>- ciation announced yesterday that the Canadian Air Board had set May 1 as the time limit in which American army and navy pilots may fly over Dominion territory.
