Arcadia Maid Shoots
405 With Help of
52 Franked Pins
Bowlers and Alley Men
Will Contribute to
Christmas Fund
By ROD THOMAS.
Alice Cole of the B. Y. P. U.
League stood to collect one prize and
share another in the annual Eve
ning Star yuletide bowling tourna
ment. Shooting with the Petworth
Church team at the Arcadia Miss
Cole rolled 160 for the highest game
recorded by a woman in the qualifi
cation round in which virtually all
the organized bowlers in the city
competed. It ended yesterday.
Returns from the preliminary are
incomplete, but Miss Cole’s 160
seems certain to win the $20 prize
that goes with top game. With a
handicap of 52, she totaled 403 for
three strings and equaled the score
of Mary Brown, achieved with a 42
stick handicap in the American
Mixed League at the Georgetown
Recreation. If a check reveals none
higher. Miss Cole and Miss Brown
will split a prize of $25.
Busy Time for Alley Men.
Bowling alley managers, having
just finished the biggest clerical job
in the history of the sport here, in
the tabulation of scores, today were
busy making out schedules for quali
fiers who will roll next week for the
bulk of the prize money of nearly
$1,000. Twenty-five per cent ot those
who competed at each establish
ment are eligible.
The alley men also were busy ;
helping Santa Claus, a campaign
having been started today to boost
The Star's Christmas Heart Fund
with contributions from bowlers'
and bowling promoters. The alley
men will turn in a nickel for every
person who competes in The Star
tournament rolloff. This figures to
net a considerable sum, but the
alley men hope to up the sport’s
contribution substantially with
gifts from the bowlers. One man
ager said he would ask each of
the participants in his section of
the rolloff to match his nickel
Durkpinnrrs Generous.
Bowlers always have been gen
erous to benevolent causes. It will
be remembered that during the Mid
western flood crisis several years ago
they kicked in with nearly $1,800 for
The Star Red Cross fund, and they
did it in a hurry, many of the
leagues giving one evening’s prize
money and all of the alley owners
contributing either $50 or $25.
Arville Ebersole, secretary of the
Washington City Duckpin Associa
tion and treasurer of The Star tour
nament, will handle the bowlers’
Christmas fund. His office is in the
Evans Building and his home ad
dress is 616 M street N.E.
Alley managers are requested to
send their roll-off schedules to the
writer for publication. The big
scramble will open next Wednesday
and continue throughout the week.

Here Is One More Poll,
Adrift on High C's
By JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent of The Star.
NEW YORK, Dec. 18 (N.A.N.A.),
—Pending a final check of the re
sults of our official unassociated poll
on "the 10 best-dressed left-handed
woman athletes of 1939"—without
which, where are you?—we hereby
list the outcome of our poll on "the
10 best athletes whose names be
‘ gin with C”
No unassociated poll is more sig
nificant. than this one. It comes in
six shades—peach, blush pink, Nile
green, Egyptian sand, dirty blue and
early yellow. It represents the vote
of 456 sports editors. all of them
familiar with the rudiments of Eng
lish, but not too familiar in other
respects, if you know what I mean.
Briefly, these boys can be trusted,
and frequently have been.
The payoff is 10 points for first
place. $6.40 for place and $3.60 for
show.
Man Can't Raise Head
If Not in Poll.
A man hardly can raise his head
In his own town if he ain't been
polled in this poll. On the other
hand statistics show that eight out
of 10 sports editors can t raise their
heads anyway without a strong ef
fort, and when they do you are
tempted to ask yourself "Was it
worth it?” There is no answer to
this question.
The results of this year's poll are
very interesting. To relieve the sus
pense here are the 10 leading ath
letes whose names, begin with C for
1939. Any man or beast whose name
began with C prior to 1932. the year
of the great bend, is eligible:
George Cafego—116.
Challedon—115.
Eddie Collins—98.
Nile Kinnick—72.
Patrick Edward Comiskey—57.
C-Biscuit—43.
Billy Conn—35.
Harry Craft—29.7.
Hugh Casey—18.
Henry Cotton—2.
v,aiego. tne au-everytning irom
Tennessee, shows appreciable prog
ress since 1914, when he was un
ranked. unborn and unscored on.
Every time they handed this tough
back the ball he gained 1 or more
yards, which is great going in any
man s league. They tell a very droil
story of Cafego in the Alabama
game. I would like to print it, but
I haven't got space.
Challedon was in there punching
nil the time. They tell a very funny
story about Challedon. which I
would print if I could remember it.
I've got plenty of space.
The high vote for Eddie Collins
Is very encouraging. One of these
days Eddie is going to get the recog
nition he deserves. One sports edi
tor speaks from the heart when he
says, in the course of a warm tribute,
“Boy, how he could play that out
field!” The fellow is thinking of
Tv Cobb, whose name also begins
with C, but it's not the words so
much in a case like this as the spirit
behind them.
72 Sports Editors Spell
Kinnick With C.
Nile Kinnick is a good example
of the trouble you run up against in
these unassociated polls. When you
consider that 72 sports editors
thought Kinnick s last name began i
with C, you wonder why they shot
William the Second of England (not '
the Conqueror, but the Conqueror's
son).
Patrick Edward Comiskev was in
there punching all the time.
Nothing remains to be said about
C-biscuit. He said it for himself
out there on that old race track.
(Say, Miss Jones, is that the way
you spell that horse's name?)
Billy Conn came along like a
house afire in 1939, jumping from
eighth place to seventh at a single
bound. And Billy deserved every bit
of it. No quieter, more unassuming
spalpeen ever saddled a winner.
Keep up the good work. Billy!
Harry Craft was in there punch
ing all the time.
Speaking of Hugh Casey, a sports
editor writes: "Though the Boston
Bees finished seventh ill the Na
tional League, Casey was very pa
tient with his young pitchers.” I
don't think he knows what he's
talking about.
When the poll was over we were
minus two votes, so we gave them
both to Henry Cotton. He was in
there punching all the time.
Pilot Aims to Speed
Conn's Start in
Dudas Fight
B? the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, Dec. 18.—Billy
Conn, champ of the light-heavies,
will start training soon for his 10
round go with Heavyweight Steve
Dudas in New York, January 10.
Johnny Ray, Conn’s manager, said
today.
The match was announced by
Promoter Mike Jacobs Saturday,!
the day after Dudas smacked down
an up-and-coming fellow New Jer
eeyan. Pat comiskey.
Conn Needs Faster Start.
Ray indicated he will concentrate
on trying to get Conn to start
ploughing in from the opening gong.
The Irishman has a habit of letting
the first few rounds go—he can’t
explain why.
‘Td feel better about it if this
were a 15-round bout for Billy, but
It’s not, and I guess he’ll just have
to get started fast, that’s all,” Ray
Bald.
Ray looks upon Dudas as “a smart
fellow, rather slow and he doesn’t
punch hard enough to bother Conn.”
Both Conn and Ray are anxious
for a bout with Heavyweightt King
Joe Louis.
Looks for Weight Gain.
"By next summer Billy should
weigh around 185-190 pounds,” the
manager said. ‘‘That’s good enough
for Louis. And even at that weight
Billy will be the fastest heavyweight
to step into the ring since Corbett.”
Billy snow scales around 171 after
hard training.
His only appearance in the heavy
weight division so far was against
Gus Dorazio, who he stopped at
eight rounds in Philadelphia.

Skins Reserving
For '40 Season
The Washington Redskins an
nounced today that applications
for 1940 season tickets now are
in order. No down payment is
required, with the eventual price
depending on whether the Red
skins play six or seven home
games.
Half again as many season
tickets were sold this year as
last, when the number was three
times as great as were sold in
1937.
Spare Hit in Final-Frame Pinch
Earns Blanche Wootten Top
Davis Sweepstakes Prize
Distinguished today as the fifth
woman bowler ever to win the Meyer
Davis Sweepstakes, oldest of all fem
inine money duckpin tournaments,
Blanche Wootton, the Rosslyn star,
moved a step nearer her goal as one
of the country's first 10 ranked wom
an duckpinners. a spot she relin
quished two years ago.
Miss Wootton won in the 12th
annual tournament last night at
Lucky Strike with a 10-game score
of 1,191, which nosed out by four
pins Lorraine Gulli, eight times the
winner of the exclusive Washington
bowling event.
OfT to a great start as she flashed
to the front with a first game of 133,
the comely Rosslyn team leadoff
roller counted top set of the tour
nament to lead the afternoon block
with a 5-game score of 626. Her
closest rivals were Lucile Young in
second place with 593 and Miss Gulli
in third place with 587.
Road Rough Near Finish.
When the final game rolled
around, Blanche needed a game of
107 to win by one pin over Lorraine,
who had turned a brilliant final
block effort of 600 for a 10-game
score of 1.187. Lucv Rose, the Ross
lyn bowling teacher and Blanche's
teammate, had clinched third place
with a nifty finish. After a 554 first
block score, Mrs. Rose turned on
the heat in the windup for a rous
ing 625 and 1,179.
Blanche swung into the final game
with a spare in her first frame.
Counting six pins on the mark she
reached the eighth frame needing
28 sticks for the necessary 107 count
and victory. But she chopped out
only six pins in the eighth. A mark
now was necessary for her to win
Down went nine pins on the first
ball in the ninth frame. She missed
for the spare, but got the pin on
her third roll.
Fights for Needed Spare.
Blanche heaved . her first shot
straight into the poicket in the final
frame and down went nine pins,
leaving No. 5 standing in the middle
of the alley. Jumping the ball-return
railing, Blanche dashed to a bench
several alleys away and put her
hands to her face, exclaiming, “I
don't want to shoot at it.”
But she did, and made it. And
followed with a 5-pin rolloff.
The first three places were worth
(35. $20 and $10.
Stimmy Hart, a southpaw of Chevy
Chase Ice Palace, rolled a game of
165, a tournament record.
Pierce Bows, but Wins
Table Tennis Cup
Although he lost last night's com
petition, Bill Pierce was in posses
sion of the Stanley Fields Trophy
Cup today as reward for winning
the Chevy Chase Ice Palace table
tennis tournament with a total of
29 points. Lou Gorin was second
with 27 points and Jules Bernard
third with 25 points.
Jim Limerick, an outsider, upset
the champion last night, 19 to 21,
21 to 19, 22 to 20. However, Pierce
had done his winning during past
weeks and opponents were unable
to overcome his lead despite his
final loss.

C. U. Alumni Bruised
After 41-31 Loss
To Card Quint
Catholic University alumni ac
tivities have been abruptly curtailed
indefinitely pending the recovering
of a large group of “old boys” who
bravely faced “Fod” Cotton s varsity
tossers yesterday—and lost, 41-31.
It was not a bad showing the
alumni made in the first half, during
which they led the varsity, 12-8, but
the bogey of mounting years, soft
living, non-training and less prac
tice overtook them in the second
and they staggered home a beaten
team. Charley horses, aching backs
and a variety of other ailments, all
not strictly attributable to the game,
plagued the boys today, but the dis
grace of losing probably is more
painful than their physical discom
fiture.
Bob McVean paced alumni scoring
with 10 points, while Joe Carrig. with
nine, led the varsity. Sachon and
Carrig, forwards: Carmen Pirro,
center; Johnny White and Gene
Daly comprised the starting varsity
line-up.
Eddie White, Bernie Lieb, Gene
Augusterfer, Bingo Flynn, Dick
Galliher, Abe Rosenfield and Johnny
Jankowski rounded out the alumni
forces.
