BOWLERS TALKING OVER FRIDAY’S GREAT SCORES Thirty-six Pin-killers Have Won EVENING STAR’S Head-Pin Fobs—Alec Dunbar Coming Here to Roll Weingarth Tonight. BV BERT DODGE. BOWLERS are still talking about the marvelous pinning that was done Friday night in THE EVENING STAR head-pin tournament on the Iroquois alleys. It's not often that so many remarkable performances are crowded into one night’s session at bowling. First the Elizabeth Stars get into Action and come within two pins of the world's record, scoring 539, incidentally knocking the Park Athletic Associa tion’s Netaark League team out of first place. The Parks, however, with 497, are still second In the race. Then Joe Nolte comes along with a mark of 114, within one pin of the world’s individual tournament mark of 115, held by Charley Greenwald, of New Brunswick, made while rolling with the Elks’ team of that place. Then sixteen of the forty howlers who were on the alleys Friday night got marks over 100, thereby winnlntj the gold watch fobs offered by THE EVENING STAR to those who get tallies over the century mark. Inasmuch as ISO bowlers had performed previous to Friday night and only twenty of them had secured the fobs, to have.sixteen top the mark in one night’s ses sion was surprising. The total timber of watch fob winners to date Is thirty'six. j no competition will continue IhK week, the pinning, as usual, being done Wednesday and Friday nights. A schedule which provides for the bowi-i lng to be dene until March 3, inclusive, will be. found in another column, and t those who have entered this tourna ment should watch carefully, so that they may know when they are ached i uled to perform. The Park Athletic Association’s Sub* urban League five, and the Small Five of the National Turn Verein, who were carded to bowl Friday night, but who asked for postponements, have been ac commodated. It will probably be neces sary to put both these teams on at the end of the schedule', t>utf if possible, the K committee will assign them some date before the tournament is over. Post- , ponements are very undesirable from \ any point of view, but the teams which asked for them this week had good ex cuses. The following teams should be on hand Wednesday night to take part in the tournament: )<f(>lh« five. Kell V. IliMhop \. Hileroii Umvllna Club. All-Right*. SItma. < !ioi,M‘Jh Iroqiioitt I). The pinning- is to begin tit 8:30 o’clock and the teams will be asked to go on the alleys in pairs, in tlie order named above. About thirty minutes is required to com plete one series, so the competition should no wound up shortly after lit:30 o'clock. The practise of liaVing eight teams bowl ouch tournament night will, it* is found, have to be followed until the competition is over. This is made necessary in order to allow time for entering the winning teams and individuals in the National Howling Association's tournaments, which begin in May. inasmuch as the prizes in THE KVKNING STAR tournament are to be awarded hi the shape of entrance fees to the national affair in New York. A)ec Dunbar is going to pay a visit to Newark tonight to meet Billy Weingartb on i he Tuxedo alleys in a bowling match. While Alee has been ha via* considerably better luck in the Greater New York and Intercity tournament than “Weiny" has, the.match is apt to be a lively one, never theless. The West 12nd Club jmd Krueger bowlers ! are having a remarkably close race in the Suburban league, one game separating Jng them in the standing, with the Belmont avenue boys having the advantage, but it is when one compares the total number of pins secured by each team thaUonc ap preciates how close the rivals are in the race. The West Knds, in thirty-nine games, have secured a total of 34.KS7 pins, while the Kruegers, in the same number of games, have totaled 34,882, just live less than the West Ends. The fact that luck is a big factor in the bowling game Is Illustrated in this instance, for it is I he Kruegers, who are behind in the number of pins scored, who have the advantage of one game. Joe Arnold is creating history in the Ath letic League. Averages above 190 are un common along the difficult circuit in which the bowlers in this league have to per form* but the veteran southpaw of the New York A. C. quintet is not far froui a 200 average, his figures being 197.4 for twenty-seven games. In the nine series in which ho has performed Arnold has se cured at least one dgubl ♦'-.century in every round and on one occasion lm grot three COMFORT IN TAIIjOR-M.UR: (,AIufl:NTS There is comfort in feeling well dressed.

Lively doings for the Newark League; bowkers tonight. Eight, of the ten teams will get Into action. The Kruegers am! Na tionals. who are tied for first place, are both scheduled to bowl away from home, the Kruegers being carded to perform on the Park A. A. alleys and the Nationals at the Celluloid Club. The West Ends, who are three games behind the leaders, are to bowl at home, taking on the Belleville Club quintet, it w'ould seem to be a gqod chance for the present champions to get busy and gain on the leaders. The Rose villes and First Wards, who are tied for tiftl» place, are to have a little set-to of their own, the match being down fpr de cision on the Roseville alleys. There should be excellent pinning in th»' match between the Suburban T^eague team* of the West End Club ami the Bay .View Wheelmen. Wednesday night, on the let ters’ alleys. The wheelmen have a big lead in the Suburban league race, but the West Ends, by making a clean sweep, would advance very near the top, and they are pinning good enough just now to have a chance of turning the trick. Some of the leading teams in the Ma- j sonic league are to bowl 1his week on Montgomery's alleys. The Orientals and Triliiminars will clash tonight and the Hope and Newark fives will get into ac tion tomorrow night. On account of Lincoln’s Birthday falling on Friday this week most of the league and tournament bowling matches will be decided early. The visit of the Parks to the Nationals, in the Suburban League, may be postponed. A postponement has been declared in the five-man team tournament oti Rabenstein's alleys this week. The Cinnamon A, Equi table and Turn Vereln Vorwaerts teams were seheduled to perform Thursday night, but have agreed to meet later on. TWO JERSEY TOWNS IN THE ATLANTIC LEAGUE.

( PRINCETON IV ROW WITH VALE Plan Discussed to Have Tigers Enter Crew at New Lon doif This Year. Perhaps the most discussed topic at present agitating the intercollegiate world is the rumor that Princeton in the n< ar future will bo a starter in the Yale-Harvard ra..e at New London. Yale and Harvard rowing authorities will meet shortly to discuss plans for the big dual races on the Thames, and at that time it is rumored the advis-1 ability of admitting the Tigcx crew to i the race will be talked over. It is not j thought, however, that Princeton will send a crew to New London this year, j but arrangements for future races will j come up for discussion. Prlnoetn-i but recoil!ly, with tbe presen tation <»f Carnegie Lake t«> the university, f*ok up rowing in earnest, and it is hardiy likely that nie Tigers will be so ambitious as to enter against the fast news of Vale ami Harvard until they have shown their abili ty against other college crews. Since the revival in rowing the Princeton crews have not entered In competition other than the holding of cla*s races. At the same time there is a strong feel-1 ing for aquatics at old Nassau and the chances are that this season Princeton will hold a, dual regatta on Carnegie- Lake igainst some college eftw. If successful the Tigers will another year branch out. tnd then, if admitted to the Vale-Harvard face. wlH likely Fond a crow to New Lon loi^. i TURN VEREIN RIVALS TO PLAY THIRD GAME.: The third garue of the home-and-home series . bet we« 11 tie- Newark Turn Verein Juniors and the National Combination Five will l»e played tonight a*, the Newark Turn I Verein court, in William street. While the Newark hoys have already won two games from lho National Turn Verein Combination Five, the games were undecided untik the last luill was caged. The contests were the fastest and cleanest seen in Newark. The National hoys claim they Will take the scalp of the Newark Juniors in the re maining two games, and intend to make the Newark hoys hustle to come withiuj j striking distance of them. MUST PAY JERSEY CITY $5,000. Detroit secured La Fitte, u player *>f the i Jersey City Club, with the under.satnding ; 'that $3,500 was to be paid for the release J and that the services of Downs would he ' • given to Jersey City. Detroit found that . i waivers could nor be secured on Downs* * nud offered to substitute Cpughlin, which ! was not. acceptable to Jersey City. The i Matter club asked for Killifer, but Detroit M j would not grant his release. Now that Do- t jtroit has given no player to Jersey City, as i i the agreement railed for, the National Com-! t mission has decided that the Detroit ClubM must pay Jersey City an added $1,500. j < ____ I i THREE MORE YANKS IN LINE.

BUFFALO, X Y„ Feb. 8.—Tom Long boat and A1 Shrubb have been offered a purse of $7,500 for a fifteen-mile n atch race In this city on February 25, and there is substantial reason for the statement that there is more than a! probability the men will meet. Shrubb was communicated with by wire, and today came back his prompt acceptance. It was not expected that word would be received from Long boat before tomorrow, because of the fact that his engagements are in the hands of managers, but his Toronto friends who have been with him throughout have sent hint a message urging his compliance with the terms. certain are the promoters of getting :lu* men together that they already have iblaiii'-*d an option mi the spacious Sevent; - fourth Regiment Armory. It has greater :Uk r space than Madison Square Garden, f though its capacity, measured by accom modation for spectators, would probably be limited to about 10.000. It was in this build ing that the Indian won his lirst indoor j American race, three years ago. when ns an amateur he met George Bonliag. Later I he met Dorand<» on the same track. This city is Marathon mad. It is estl-; n a ted that Us sporting colony who sup ported Longboat loyally against tjfhruhh won upward of $50,000. getting as high an average as S to 5 for its money. There would be thousands of Canadians over for the match, and th*' event would probably (all out the biggest betting that ever took! place in Western New York or in all Can ada. for that matter, because, so far asj Longboat is concerned, all Canadian? now j are Missourians—they have to be shown. j CROWLEY MAY TAKE LONGBOAT’S MEASURE. NEW HAVEN. Conn.. Feb S.—Those ■ who saw James Crowley, of the Irish-j American A. C.. of New York, win the Marathon race here Saturday night in twelve seconds better than Longboat] made Friday night, think that Crowley Is j the better man. A race is to be arranged between tin* pair if the Indian will consent. It is felt | here that Crowley's feat of running to a. standstill such stars as Fowler, of Boston: Morrissev. of Yonkers; Edmondson, the Canadian flier, .and Tom Harris, the negro, •hampion. leaves him in the front rank id Marathon runners. 3RANGE GUNNERS HAD BUSY DAY AT TRAPS.

Local fans remember ihe remarkable game he pitched against the Skeeters at Jersey <*it>. only to lose in the twelfth in n.np «>n n slight error by Engle when the Tigers had the game apparently packed away on the ice.
