Abbott and Murphy Take Pin Verdicts Over Falcaro City Bowling Luminaries Upset Match-Game Champion in 20-Tilt Series on Local Alleys.
BY BERNARD HARMON Joe Falcaro. rated as the world's greatest match-game bowler, failed to live up to his rating during his week-end appearance in this city. “Chesty Joe" met up with two outstanding local bowlers, Dan Abbott and Johnny Murphy, and took it on the chin in both contests. iTbbott. one of the city’s best tenpin spillers for a number of years, staged a strong comeback in his match of Saturday, overcoming a 39-pin lead held by the champ in the afternoon block of 10 games by pounding the pins for huge totals in his second half of the series during the evening. City Ace Rallies During the matinee appearance, thp local star tossed games of 194. 196. 224. 273, 182. 182. 247. 191, 203 and 226 to total 2058. while Falcaro totaled 2097 on 222. 191. 193, 257, 190, 191. 203. 245. 213 and 189. As the two pinmen tangled In ! their second block of ten games, Abbott cut loose with games 256,200, 212, 200. 194. 187, 256. 235. 222 and 211 to bring his total for the 20 games to 4231. while Falcaro failed to keep his afternoon pace when he fired games of 200. 203, 216, 203. 186. 185. 216. 173. 183 and 193 for a grand total of 4055. Averages over the twenty-eame route were Abbott 211-9 and Falcaro 202-15. Murphy Leads Throughout Murphy, the city's 20-year-old sensation, hopped on the touring champ right at the start of their afternoon games and never was headed as the program progressed. The Indianapolis youth finished the first 10 games with a total of 2101. with Falcaro trailing at 1906. Murphy continued to improve in ! the windup series, getting 2161 against the New Yorker’s 1905. Murphy's grand total was 4262. an average of 213-2. while Falcaro had 3811 for an average of 190-11. Individual games of these two
stars were: Murphy—233. 176. 204. 228. 210. 228. 244. 202. 209. 167. 227. 233. 256. 171. 205. 216. 236. 185. 200 and 232. Falcaro—l9o. 200. 192. 173. 214. 191. 182. 172. 202. 190. 183. 218. 224. 168. 175. 210. 158. 164. 222 and 183. Next Sunday at the Central alleys, Russell Smith manager of the plant, will stage a 1000 scratch 5-man-team tournament. It will be the last opportunity for local A. B. C. entrants to take their “warmups" together, and for this reason. Smith expects an unusual large entry. And with an attractive prize list, many teams intending to make the Syracuse trip will have an opportunity to swell the coffers of their expense funds. Entry in the Central event is $lO per team, bowling included, and the dead line for entries has been set at 1 p. m. Saturday. The initial shift will roll at 1 p. m. with others following at 3. 7. and 9. The schedule for Sunday will be the same, except that an additional shift will be put on at 11 a. m. The members of the City of Indianapolis bowling team. wh.ch will represent the citv in she A B. C tournament at Syracuse this month, are busr practicing; and promise to give a good account of themseites when they face the tournament pins. The team la captained by Johnny Noonan. a veteran bowler, and an employe of the Board of Works. Gerald Red' Haugh. who keep* the traTic on the move in the vicinity of Capitol-av and Waihington-at, ta the police department's repreaenative on the team. Red last week connected for the first 600 in his 20 jtaxs cl howling, and new shat ha has
•got over the hump” he feels that the City team is all set. Dr. Herman Morgan will represent the Board of Health. Bill Figg is the City Garage's contribution and from the Fire Department the team will get George Godwin of the Gamewell Room. The team will wear white shirts with a replica of the Soldier and Sailors Monument on the backs along with the inscription "City of Indianapolis. The local A B. C. promotion committee is making an effort to have Mayor Kern and Police Chief Morrissey accompany the team. In event they are unable to make the Journev. the official representation will be in the hands of Joe Tynan, secretary to the mayor, and Daniel J O Neill Jr., city clerk. They have made arrangements to go to Syracuse by plane, and it is hoped that the Mayor and police chief will be able to accompany them. * Twice every week, four men who are totally blind visit the Illinois alleys to bowl three or four games. The men. Bob Miller. Louie Herkamp. Charlie Nichol and Homer Wachstetter. bowl some fair scores, at times passing the 100 mark. Aided by the alley manager they feel their wav to the foul line and deliver their ball. They question the manager regaidmg pins left up. and ’'clean” tneir spares with regularity. They aik their scores from frame to frame, and always promise to do better the next time. Pins were flving in all directions during last week s five nights of league play and when the firing ceased at the conclusion of Friday night s sessions, seven individuals had 700 totals recorded to their credit, j another pair had entered the Bowlers ! “Hall of Fame" by firing perfect 300 games, and anew season's record team total had been set. Eddie Striebeck and John Fehr added new laurels to their many ten-pin achievements when they welded 12 consecutive strikes for 300 games. Both these boys | posted perfect games while performing | with the Cook’s Goldblume team. Striebeck’s coming in Wednesday's session of ! the Indianapolis loop and Fehr's in the i regular Friday night play in the Foun- | tain Square Recreation circuit. It was the : second 300 game of Striebeck’s bowling career and the third for Fehr. This i pair of ten-pir. snipers will receive the j usual A. B C. award for perfect scores. | as well as various other prizes offered by the alley owners and local ‘merchants. Chris Orphev. who does his weekly bowling in the Knight's of Columbus League, was all ready to put his name along side of that of Striebeck and Fehr. when, during his Friday night appearance, he slammed out 11 straight strikes. He missed his “bowler’s dream” when the 6 and 10 pans failed to respond to his final delivery, but he will also be rewarded bv the A. B. C., who provide medals for
games. The perfect games of the two Goldblume stars put them in the 700 class. Fehr adding games of 221 and 238 for a 759 series, and Striebeck poling out a 183 and 226 to rea.h 709 Fenr's total was the best individual showing of the week. Herman Bohne. rolling in the Washington League, connected for the week's best total when he smacked out games of 270. 256 and 209 for a 744 Harrv Wheeler. roUing in a postponed set in the Uptown Recreation loop, totaled i2O on 227. 227 and 266. Paul Striebeck reached 719 on 276. 205 and 236. in the Fountain Square Recreation circuit. Bill Owens gave the S' Catherine's League a thrill when he totaled 708 through games of 269. 182 and 257. and Dan Abbott slipped over a 701 in the Court House League, getting games of 248. 279 and 174.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla.—Carl Hubbell apparently is going to be as hard to beat this season as he has been in the past.

Shooting School— RAIN FAILS TO DELAY TIMES' GUNCLASSES Traps Arranged to Allow Shooting From Veranda of Clubhouse. Rain will have little effect on The Indianapolis Times-Em-Roe Shooting School, which is being held this month at the Indianapolis Gun Club, 1346 S. Lyndhurst-dr. “When the weather gets unpleasant, we move the traps to the wide veranda, which runs the length of the big building at the club, and shoot from there,” Charles E. Adams. instructor, said today,' "The Indianapolis Gun Club is considered one of the finest in the United States. Unlike most shooting clubs, where only a small, boxlike shelter is available, the club-has a spacious clubhouse. Here shooters may take ‘time out” to rest and warm.” A special class of women interested in shooting will meet at the club Saturday afternoon, to enter competition for the more than 20 trophies which have been offered prize-winners in the school. The trophies are on display this j week in the window at the Em-Roe Sporting Goods Cos. They have been donated by business firms and by sportsmen. Arrangements also have been completed to hold special instruction on Saturdays for men and women who are employed during the week and unable to attend the regular classes, held at 1:30 each day except Saturday and Sunday. The school has been organized in an effort to acquaint men and women with the safe handling of guns, as well as expert shooting. Because of the large number of fatalities during the recent hunting season caused by hunters attempting to climb fences while carrying their guns, a section of fence has been installed at the club, where instruction also is given for climbing fences. The fence is similar to that found on farms in Indiana.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM BILLS COMETO LIFE Farley Submits Postoffice Measure Year and Half After Ordered. This is the last of three articles on the patronage situation in Wa*hin(ton. BY THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, March 11.— When President Roosevelt came into office there were high hopes among civil service reformers that merit might outweigh politics in selections for jobs. ‘‘The merit system in civil service is in no danger at my hands; but on the contrary I hope it will be extended and Improved during my term as President,” Mr. Roosevelt said a few months after entering the White House. Though some advances have been made, there have been many setbacks. and the situation is not regarded on the whole as encouraging. There are in motion now, after two years, some promising reform measures, such as the bill to place all postmasters under the civil service, which has Administration backing. and the plan to extend the ci\il service to cover the emergency agencies, some of which are in a fair way to become permanent. But while reform measures have waited. Postmaster General James A. Farley has so entrenched the old patronage system that the adage about the barn door being locked after the horse is gone is applicable, with reservations. Civil Service Ratio Drops Today there are 214,000 government employes outside of the civil service, combined with 109,000 when the Roosevelt Administration began. Less than 70 per cent of government workers are under civil service now as compared with more than 80 per cent on March 4, 1933. The Administration has some excuse in the hectic pace of the New Deal, the necessity of staffing the new agencies in a hurry. The belated move to place these agencies under the Civil Service, requiring the merit test for reappointment of present personnel, may presently remedy this defect of haste. But numerous complaints about the caliber of appointments, which center at this moment on the Home Owners Loan Corp., reveal how the spoils system has left scars on the New Deal which time may or may not erase. Farley Cements His System President Roosevelt directed Mr. Farley in July, 1933, to prepare a bill placing second, third and fourth class postmasters under the civil service, a reform long advocated. At this late date, more than a year later, Mr. Farley has sent a bill to the Capitol with his blessing—now that he has filled the postmasterships. It won’t take effect until three years hence, which prompted Republicans to complain that the Democratic national chairman will by such a bill only perpetuate his control. Mr. Farley, it is known, drafted his measure soon after his original order from the President. What happened to hold it up has never been explained. Only a few days after this longdelayed bill was sent to the Capitol, Senator Joseph Robinson, Democratic floor leader, was provoked to give his views on this patronage business when Senator Daniel Hastings <R., Del.) chided Democrats for opening up 10.000 new jobs in the CCC for distribution by House members. Senator Huey Long interjected that Democrats should have all jobs in this Administration. Robinson Mourns Jobs “I am not so strong as is the Senator from Louisiana in believing that the Democrats ought to have ‘all the jobs,’ ” boomed Senator Robinson, “but I do affirm and reaffirm that under a Democratic Administration they ought to have fair recognition; they ought to have most of the jobs. “I unhesitatingly say that I think the present Administration has kept in office in key positions too many Republicans too long.” Complaints have poured into Washington about retention of Hoover appointees. In Illinois, the Hoover relief board was retained. In many other states, Republicans have been kept in office, it was charged in the Senate by Senator Burton Wheeler <D., Mont.). In the South, particularly in Georgia, the “carpetbagger” issue has been revived. The Georgia legislature and the Georgia delegation in Congress bewailed the sending of outsiders into the state to handle relief, HOLC and other Administration ventures. Wanted Library, Too When Democrats first took over the government, Rep. James V. McClintic (D., Okla.), since defeated, would have turned over the Library of Congress to "deserving Democrats”—which might have produced such strange results as a piumber or a carpenter presiding over the Pennell collection of etchings. Hardware men, carpenters, plumbers and dress merchants were employed as HOLC appraisers in New York City, according to an affidavit filed with the House Rules Committee, which shows just how far these things may go. Among the futile attempts at reform was one by Senator George W. Norris (R„ Neb.), who introduced an amendment to the original HOLO bill which would have required appointments on merit. The Democrats defeated it. Demands now for a congressional Investigation indicate the result. Despite the outcry raised two or three years ago, many Congressmen still perpetuate the nepotism system. Some 25 or more House members still have relatives on their pay rolls, according to Rep. John R. Mitchell ID., Tenn.). Minister Believed Suicide By Unitril Pres WARSAW, Ind., March 11.—The body of the Rev. William L. Earle, 55, an unassigned Presbyterian minster, was found on the shore of Winona Lake yesterday with his throat slashed. Coroner Paul Landis believed it a suicide.
