.BOWHN6 LEAGUE LEADERS LAST NIGHT. Capitol No. 1 league, Dellinger (Deschler Monograms) 239 Printing Crafts league, Fehr (Corneliua Press) 281 Elba’ No. 2 league, MeFerren (Lungs) 220 Beam’s No. 2 league, Tegeler (Nord’s Tigers) 216 Central Ladies’ league, Sheridan (Nolsles) 211 Glre Dellinger the hand-painted pee wees and let aL arguments cease. The tall boy went after the wood in the right manner and form last night and 259 clubs was the least he could get in the first round. This gave him the single game honors in the Capitol loop. We might also give Westover some little praise for the stunt he pulled in his third round, which came near taking Mr. Dellinger off his high horse. In other words, he cashed 256 on the beak. Dellinger’s tribe of Monograms trounced the Taggart Bakers twice, then back and gave ’em a chance. Westover fired out a couple of double centuries, hut his buddies wore not made of sterner stuff and t.hey_ came mighty dern close to being put in the “also bowled” ranks by the Capitol Five. Brnder and Hurt put in some classy kicks for the Capitol outfit. The Schoen Bros, took on the Claman Bros, and one great jam followed. The Schoens lost out by nine pins in the rolloff. The Strauss boys sure know how to say It to the Em-Roes. They rolled three 900 totals to win two games last night Wheeler and English kept right up there among the 200-plus performers every minute. Levlck, Snyder and Sourbier threw the hooks into goodly numbers of pinß for the O’Donnell Transfers. Myers and and young Faust slammed out plenty of double centuries to win two for the Federal Patterns. t The Muscles of the Elks No. 2 circuit proved themselves stronger than the Tongues and scored a couple of wins. MeFerren and StonehiU plastered the wood hard every time and there lies the story of the Dung’s two-game win over the Adrenolins. The Divers took the odd contest from the Brains and while they were doing things then went ahead and got the high team total honors with 818 pins. The Hearts were not hitting just kereactly right and they got three good trimmings from the Thyroids. Be it said that MeFerren was the wicked stick wielder of the evening. His 220 was high for one game.

When the ladles crack out a 211 count they are putting on plenty of dog. That’s Mrs. Sheridan, Noisy, if you please, from the ground up. This big count put the Noisies on their feet and they managed to get a tie with the Brownies, both in their match and In the high team total race. The Midgets made monkeys out of the Cuckoos by giving them the worst of the deal every time. The Jolly Rollers rolled against the Blues and today they are not so much that way. Cause —three straight defeats. Tegeler, under the guise of a Nord Tiger hit the wood like he is wont to and helped a large bit in the Tigers’ three-time win over the Pleasant Drives. The South Sides took three games from the Ferndale A. C.s, and the Triangles started out to do the same thing to the Brunswick Tires, but they were stopped after the first round and walloped In the next two. Despite the fact that the honorable Mr. Burke shot with the St. Clair Placers, the Prospect Gas trimmed that outfit in the second and third games. The Cornelius Printers were just chuck full of double century games and 000 totals, making it necessary for The Times squad i to lose three times in a row. News met News and the Composing Room won three times. Meredith was there with his usual double century. The Mutual Printers tackled the Printing Arts and got away with three victories. The Two Stafford squads also clashed, but the No. 2 bunch had a little brotherly love and they gave the No. 1 outfit one game. Maimes got more double centuries than any other individual, but Fehr got the big one of the night. Elwrln trooped in with a double century and a few other good scores and the Hollenback Press scored a clean Sweep over the Indianapolis Printing Arts. ' i / GENGLER-WOLF MATCH. CHICAGO, Feb. 6.—Count John Gengler increased his lead by thirty-one pins in his forty-game bowling match with Phil Wolf at the Bruck alleys where they rolled the second block of ten games. He now has a margin of ninety-one pins for Kbe twenty games. Last night Wolf won Men of the ten games, despite the fact that he split one of his fingers in the firth game. He also had a count of 277, Vrhich is high for the series. Joy and Glooms to Get Chance With Em-Roes

Manager,Callahan of the Em-Roe quinjet received a wire from the Dayton ptongle team yesterday stating that the Bm-Roe-Dayton game will have to be Canceled for next Tuesday, due to the fact that Mahrt, Reese and Theile, members of the Dayton quintet, are confined to their beds with Influenza. This Is the second cancellation of the Triangle team this season. The other canceled game nras due to the Ohio champions missing connections at Richmond. The Joy and Gloom team, winners of the amateur basket title of Marlon county, will take the place of the Dayton team and will oppose the Em-Roes on the Y. M. C. A. floor next Tuesday night. Although youngsters, the Jov and Gloom team has wonderful passing' ability and accurate basket shooting, which will make a strong opposition for the Em-Roe five. Trials for Trainers Also, Urges A. A. U. Secretary NEW YORK, Feb. 6.—Trials for trainers as well as aspirants for membership on the American Olympic teams have been Suggested by Frederick W. Rubien, secretary of the A. A. U. Colored “Y” Big Game What Is expected to bb a close game will be staged this evening at the colored "X” when the local association live meets the fast Wabash Avenue “Y” from Chicago. The visitors, last Saturday, came out the winners by a 25-to-13 score up in the Windy City and the home, guards are anxious to get even before the local fans. The Chicago quintet has been going great guns this season and are starting pn an eastern invasion, which will take them as far as New York City. They have never been able to defeat the home boys on the local floor and are deter--2r ne <? to begin their trip with a victory. Coach DehraDtz is confident that, with the assistance of “Hap” Hazard, who was out of last week’s game, his squad will come out on top. The main go, preceded by a curtain-raiser, will start at bus. [ _ STATE THREE-CUSHIONS. Curtis took a whirlwind game from Harry Cooler in the atate three-cushion billiard tournament play at Cooler’s billiard parlor last evening, 60 to 36, in seventy-nine,innings. The former champ was hitting em right last night and ran out his contest in one of the low-inning games of the tournament. Cooler registered a high run-of five in she match against a run of three by Curtis. Sullivan and Terrill m* t tonight.

ARTHUR DIETZ. Arthur Dietz of the Dietz-James Sales Company, 334 East Market street, distributors for the Commonweaith and Columbia cars, is highly gratified at the reception being given the Commonwealth cars in Indianapolis. TEe Commonwealth display was one of the centers of interest at the New York auto show, and according to Mr. Dietz it was even more popular at the Chicago show, where the touring car model and chassis were displayed. 1 O'Dowd Is Pushing Effort to Get Bout With French Idol Middleweight Champ Doesn't Fear Carpentier, Though Much Lighter. MAY LACK THE PUNCH By JACK VEIOCK, International News Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Feb. 6.—Michael O’Dowd, who tells all the rest of the middleweights where to get off, opines that he would like to tackle Georges Carpentier. In suggesting himself as a’ logical opponent for the boss of European fisticuffs Michael points out that Billy Papke and Frank Klaus met and defeated Carpentier when they were leading middies. He wsyits to know why he isn’t just as eligible. At first glance Mike’s argument sounds .interesting, and he puts a little extra weight behind it by recalling that he stopped Dick Smith, the Britisher, in three rounds, a feat which required seven rounds of effort on Carpentier's part. Admitting that O’Dovd is just reaching the top of his form as king of themiddleweight division, and granting that he is really the class of the 100-pound-ers of the present-day crop, there is still a little doubt regarding his rating as an opponent for the European champion. Michael's intentions are all right. He isn’t afraid of the Frenchman, and he has proven himself to be a good, tough boy, sufficiently clever to stand toe to toe with the average battler of his size and give a fight crowd a good run for its money. But he hasn’t demonstrated consistently that he can punch, and that is what the boxer who .beats Carpentier must do. Papke end Klaus both carried a wallop, particularly the Kewanes boy, and Carpentier, who lias now regained his top form, also boasts a punch with a knockout behind it. What’s more Carpentier probably can give O'Dowd cards and spades and beat him scientifically.

So from where we sit it appears that O’Dowd will do well to let good enough alone and remain in his class, which is the middleweight division. Carpentier Is bigger and heavier, and we have not forgotten that the ambitious Michael took a fine boxing lesson from Jack Britton in a New Jersey ring a short time ago. Figuring that Britton, who is a welterweight, stood O’Dowd off and outpointed him in eight rounds, it appears that Carpentier, who is heavier and more clever than Mike, would give him a fine thrashing. Mel Coogan, the Brooklyn lightweight, hasn’t much U6e for the Mitchell family. His aversion to mixing It with the Milwaukee brothers, Richie and Pinkie, has led to the parting of the ways -between Mel and his manager, Scotty Montieth, who formely manager Johnny Dundee. Scotty dug Coogan out as the boxer to help him revenge himself against Dundee, who dropped Montieth after long years of partnership. Scotty got, his revenge, for Coogan gave Dundee a fine lacing In a bout In New Jersey. Montieth was all excited about Coogan. He took Mel to Milwaukee to meet Pinkie Mitchell and gave the Brooklynite a beating, though Coogan finished the bout after being technically knocked out In the first. This showed gameness. Coogan next faced Benny Leonard, .but not for long, as the lightweight champion Bisposed of him after a couple or rounds, Montieth then matched Coogan to box six rounds in Philadelphia with Richie Mitchell, and after the match was closed Coogan ran out. Right then and there piloting his own canoe.

On June 2, 1919, D. McCall White spread a sheet of paper on a drafting board. “We are going to build a car,” he declared, “that will get away like a scared rabbit and which will be as quiet as a sailboat gliding through the water.” Thus, seven months ago, was born the new DaFayette, which was shown for the first time at the national shows this year. From the very outsat the automobile public has evinced an interest and confidence In the result of Mr. White’s work. When the stock was offered for sale last summer the entire Issue was subscribed within four days. Now, before a price announcement has been made, many people have placed their names on the waiting list for cars. All along the line confidence in the Dafayette has been expressed. Leading manufacturers of parts and equipment, although heavily booked with orders, have made earnest efforts to be identified with this .splendid new car. J.

| WHAT THEY SAY BAN JOHNSON. That the fans like to see more hitting In barsebali games is the opinion of Ban Johnson, president of the American league. He does not favor “doctoring” the bail. “A man schooled In technical baseball will derive great pleasure in a one-hit game because he knows the skill required to pitch so effectively, but I have always noticed that the average fan. the man who goes to the ball park for amusement, likes to see free hitting and runf retting. You can prove this by listening o the cheering any day in the week.” JIMMY WILDE. Judging from the papers over in England one would think that Jimmy Wilde did not even wait to dress after bis American bow with Jack Sharkey in Mllon Dec. 6, but did a marathon to the nearest boat for England. Jimmy has just received a bundle of Englir'u papers announcing his return home. * “Why should have me return home? I’ll stay here until I have demonstrated' that I canbbo a bit. After my showing against Mike Ertle I’ll probably stay for a while at least." EDDIE CICOTTE. Bobby Roth, former Clevelander and Red Sox,, recently traded to the Nationals, and, by them to the Yankees, says he

thinks Eddie Cicotte has the best control of any pitcher In the big leagues. “Cicotte can pnt the ball within two inches of the spot he wants to. A pitcher with nerve and control, both of which he possesses, can do anything. I’ve got to second base several times and from there watched with wonder while Cicotte twirled. He seemed to do everything but make the ball talk. “Eddie Is about the best one to work against Babe Ruth. He seems to have it on the slugger. He will dink a couple up at Ruth and. while Babe is off his balance, shoot a fast one by him.” BARNES AND HAGEN. Since it was announced that Jim Barnes and Walter Hagen will visit England to play In the oju-n golf championship tournament this year much comment is comiug from abroad. George Duncan, om- of the leading pros in England, is quoted as saying: “I think Big Jim Barnes is still an Englishman, but Hagen is home-bred, as they say in the United States. Some one will have to do better at Deal this year tb®n was done at St. Andrews last year if we are to keep the championship on this side of the Atlantic. “Both of these players are bigger and better than Jack McDermott, who got near to Taylor at Ho v lake —he finis hen fourth. Hagen has just as much confidence as McDermott had, and is a better golfer.” A boxing club has been organized at Tia Juana, Mex. The number of rounds a fight may go is unlimited.
