741 Individuals to Seek Honors in City Pin Meet Record Established in Singles Event of Annual Affair; 452 Doubles Teams to Compete. BY BERNARD HARMON FURTHER assurance that the coming city bowling tournament will be the greatest in history came today with the announcement that 452 doubles teams and 741 Individual entrants had registered for the 1936 event.

This far exceeds any previous entry in the annual affairs, and City Bowling officials worked late last night in preparing a schedule that Is to be released early next week. A recheck of the five-man entries boosted the total teams participating in that event to 291, five more than was originally announced. The latest figures show that 21 Class A teams, 104 Class B’s and 166 Class Cs are to compete in the five-man event. Class C also holds a big edge in entries 'n the doubles and singles events, 220 duos having registered in the former and 303 individuals in the singles. 178 lass B entrants are to compete in the doubles and 296 pastimers are to fire at the maples in the individual event. Class A drew 54 entries in the doubles and 141 in the singles. A. B. C. Arouses Interest That the recent A. B. C. tournament, staged at the State Fairground Coliseum, created interest is evidenced by the huge entry in the Class C division, which is made up of the lower average pinmen. Most of the entries in this class made their debut in tournament bowling in the big national event, and are anxiously awaiting their turn at the city tourney maples. The event is to open at the Parkway Alleys next Saturday and is expected to continue for three weeks or more. tt u tt THE huge army of pinsters who posted A. B. C. scores that were good for slices of the record-break-ing $108,928 prize fund, are to collect their winnings between 1 and 4 this afternoon at the Severin. Norman Hamilton, City Association secretary, is to be in charge of the pay-off. Local bowlers are to receive checks amounting to $17,977.70, according to a revised prize list released by American Bowling Congress officials. Five thousand eight hundred ninety-three dollars and seventy cents of this amount was won by participants in the regular division, while $12,084 represents

Tiyers Regaining Titular Form Earlier Than Usual Pitcher Bridges Comes Through With First Good Game; Gehringer Starts Fancy Triple Play. / By United Press NEW YORK, April 25.—The World Champion Detroit Tigers appear to have shaken on that early season malady of losing ball games more quickly this year than they did in 1934 and 1935. Schoolboy Rowe, usually the last member of the Tiger hurling staff to hit his stride, won liis first two starts via the snutou rtoute. He gave

up only nine hits in 18 innings. Manager Mickey Cochrane’s prin- ! cipal worry was Tommy Bridges, ace fireballer. Tommy was shelled from the mound in his first two starts. Elden Auker and General A1 Crowder, the other two mainstays of the staff, also collapsed in their initial starts. But Auker brought through with a shutout victory Thursday and Bridges came over into the win column yesterday by pitching the Tigers to a 9-to-3 decision over the St. Louis Browjfc. Although he gave up 10 hits to the Brownies, Bridges scattered them so well he never was in danger after the Tigers’ six-run burst in the second inning, climaxed by Charley Gehringer's triple with the bases loaded. Gehringer, who is batting .472 and has no peer on the keystone corner, was the man to start the triple play which killed a Brown rally in the fourth inning. How It Worked Charley snared Bottomley’s drive and to, sed to Rogell, who caught Sammy West off the bag, then threw to Greenberg before Solters could scramble gack to first. Yesterday’s victory enabled the Tigers, to dislodge Washington from fifth position in American League stand--ings. The rampaging Cleveland Indians took a better hold on first place

League Scouts, Notice! Tech Pitchers Turn In Pair of 2-Hit Shutouts.

THERE is somewhat of a “Miisers’ Club” at Tech High School. Ralph Shearer made the organization a two-some yesterday. He joined Pitcher Marvin. Reno by setting down the Decatur Central baseball team with two hits as the East Siders won a 5-to-0 victory. Reno, in Tech's opening game, was just as stingy with his offerings against Southport. Tech, bringing baseball back to city high schools this season after three years lapse, has not had the home plate crossed. A single, combined with two walks, a hit batsman and a wild pitch, gave T?ech three runs in the opening frame yesterday. Another brace of markers was pushed across on three laits and an error. Shearer struck out 10 batters. Score: Decatur Central 900 000 0— 0 3 1 Tech 302 000 x— 5 6 4 Butler and McGill; Shearer and Arnery.,

prizes offered the various booster squads. B B B JESS PRITCHETT SR. proved to city pin fans that he can still mow ’em down, when in last night’s appearance in the Fountain Square Recreation League he led.his Cook’s Goldblume to a 3306 total, with a 726 that topped all solo efforts of the evening’s league pastiming. The veteran assembled the brilliant total through games of 222, 279 and 225, while the team garnered its topper on counts of 1116 and a pair of 10955, which were good for three victories over thee opposing Charles Denby Cigars. Johnny Murphy and Don Johnson also were in a scoring mood and helped the Cookmen with series of 692 and 682 that were good for second and third places among the leaguers in action. John Fehr’s 640 and Lee Carmin’s 566 provided the balance of the team’s huge total. For the Denby’s Hank Shriver’s 612, Paul Striebeck’s 610 and Eddie Homberger’s 605 featured. With a trio of members over the 600 mark, Marott Shoes posted a 3038 that netted them a double win over Bowes Seal Fast. Honor shooters for the Shoemen were Paul Stem mwith 646, Oscar Behrens with 621 and Paul Stevenson with 618. Dan Abbott’s 626 was tops for the losers. Other leading individuals in the Fountain loop were Carl Hardin and Herman Bohne with 6435, Joe Fulton with 638, Jack Hunt with 630, Phil Bisesi with 623 and Arch Heiss with 622. Falls City Hi-Brus and Acetylene Products took two games each over Lieber Lagers and Sterling Beer. Nine soloists passed the 600 mark in the Washington’s League’s weekly session, Morris Roeder topping the the field with a 639. Bob Wuensch had 637, Frank Liebtag 635, Tom Brown 611, Bob Haagsma 610, Jimmie Hurt 610, Charles Menges 610, Paul Cooper 606 and George Godwin 605. Three other pastimers in action posted noteworthy scores, Cecil Bevis having a 658 in the Insurance League; Lou Brandt a 628 in the Construction and Clarence Baker a 603 in the Presfi-O-Lite.

with a 6hto-2 decision over the Chicago White Sox.* Although outhit, 11 to ID, Cleveland took advantage of four,Sox errors and home runs by Trosky and Averill. New York’s Yankees moved into third place with a 10-to-2 victory over Washington. Vernon Gomez limited the Senators to seven hits, while his mates were collecting 17 off Ed Linke. St. Louis became a cellar teant once again when Connie Mack’s fast-improving Athletics made a clean sweep of their two-game series by defeating the Boston Red Sox 3 to 1. The A.’s did all their scoring in the first inning. After their former teammate, Johnny Marcum, issued a base on balls, the Athletics pounced on with three singles. Dusty Cooke homered as a pinch hitter for the Sox in the nfinth. Warneke Goes Distance In the National League, the champion Chicago Cubs took a 6-to-l decision over the Pittsburgh Pirates and moved into third place. Lon ! Warneke held the Buccaneers to seven hits as he went the full route for the first time this year. The Philadelphia Phillies, who lost, 4 to 1, to Boston were reduced all the way from third to fifth place. Casey Stengel continued his feud against Bill Terry in the only other National game played. The Brooklyn Dodgers romped on the Giants, 8 to 2, and moved into fourth place as Van Lingle Mungo struck out nine New Yorkers and held them to six well scattered hits. Yesterday’s Hero: Charley Gehringer, Detroit Tiger second baseman, who tripled with the bases loaded and was on the starting endof the season's first triple play.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FOLLY and FAREWELL

BEGIN HERE TODAY Linda Bourne, 20 years old, pretty and socially prominent In tire little middlewestern town of Newtown, meets Peter Gardiner, political reporter, when she goes to the Blade office with an announcement about a charity bazaar. , The same day Linda’s father, In financial difficulties, kills himself. Peter roes to the Bourne home to break the news to Linda. Misunderstanding, she treats him rudely. Later she apologizes, confides that her lather’s money Is cone and she must find a job. She tells Peter about 'a scenario she has written and he asks to read it. Linda promises to come to his home Sunday to meet his mother. In the meantime, Dix Carter, wtih whom Linda is in lose, telephones and Linda forgets her date with Peter. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER IV A DATE was a date, and it had to be kept in Linda’s code, but when Pete Gardiner’s call reminded her of their date for Sunday afternoon she thought of Dix and did something she had never done in her life before. She lied to him. “I’m terribly sorry,” Linda said, “but I’m afraid I can’t keep our date. Something unexpected, something about the—the estate has come up—and I’ve got to see some one at 4.” There was the briefest of silences. Linda couldn’t know that it was bitter disappointment. Then Pete tried again: “If it’s not going to keep you late, couldn’t I pick you up for supper?” nun IT was Linda’s turn to hesitate. Dix hadn’t said anything about supper. He had said he would come by around 4. Hoping that he would stay, she had already prepared a little supper for them. “I’m afraid it will be too late. And . . . I'm . . . I’m really sorry,” she said almost truthfully. “Okay. We’ll try another time,” Pete said with a lightness he didn’t feel. And when he had rung off, his lips tightened as they had when he was a little boy. Perhaps Miss Bourne didn’t care for the idea of going across the tracks to the Gardiner home for suppor. Linda didn’t think of that or of Pete’s mother until much later that day. Dix was coming! At 3 Linda took off the mourning frock and put on her black velvet. She ararnged and re-arranged the flowers, the tea-tray. She lighted fires in the library and drawing room. She opened the windows so that the early spring air and sunshine would rout out the atmosphere of tragedy that still clung to the silent rooms. BUB IT was nearly 5 when Dix came. His roadster roared into the drive and, through the curtains, Linda saw him glance at his wristwatch before he raised the knocker. “Hello,” she said in just the tone she had always said hello to him before, but embarrassment had fallen on him. She could forget while she was with him, the heavy hand

of circumstance that had descended since last they, had met. Dix couldn’t. It was not strong enough, this bond between them. Linda had become someone else. She was dramatized in his mind, and try as she would, she could not change things. He told her gravely of his activities, and when she tried to speak of her father and all that Dix already kn?w (because she wanted to clear away the something between them so that they could find each other as they had been) Dix would not allow her. He wouldn’t have tea, he said, glancing once more at his watch. He had to “pick up some people.” In her imagination. Linda saw Jane Wyatt’s laughing face held up to his, and she propped her chin up mentally. “Tell me about the Glee Club concert,” she said. B B B HE did. Precisely the way he would have told his mother. Carefully he reviewed the program. After that, Linda gave up. When he rose she got his hat and, summoning a smile she did not feel, she said, “I’m not very gay now, Dix, or very grod company, but I hope you’ll come again.” “You bet,” he answered heartily, and she tried not to see his relief. “We’ll have to do something one of these nights. Something quiet.” Very calmly Linda took the teatray to the kitchen. Very calmly she wrapped the untouched sandwiches in a damp cloth, put the cream back in the bottle rinsed the dishes. Calmly she emptied the ash trays. Then she took all the flowers out and dumped them in the rubbish basket. She went upstairs and squeezed her eyes tightly shut so that the tears would not come through. But they did come, and when she had cried until her nose was red, her lip swollen and her eyes burned back in her head and she was as disgusted with herself as she was hurt, she took off the velvet gown and got out her old tweeds, the worn riding hat, and her brogues. BUB LINDA felt the need of fresh air and sympathy. When she set out, with small hands clenched in the pockets of her coat, she sought only the fresh air, but when her mind had cleared itself of the afternoon she remembered Pete Gardiner. She remembered the tone of his voice. She remembered how he had looked when he spoke about his mother and, to her own shame, she remembered how lightly she had dismissed his invitation —from his mother, he had said—-

to have supper with them at his home. And then Linda knew there was only one thing in the world she wanted at that moment and that was to see Pete’s mother. She was ashame dos her behavior, but her desire was stronger than that and | she hastened her steps until she came to a drug store. Quickly, she turned the pages of the telephone directory until she came to his name and found the address. It was, a little house, but it wasn’t quite the kind of a little house Linda had expected to find. It was freshly painted and evergreens hid the worn foundations. A border of young hyacinth waved pink and purple and nodded to the white ruffled curtains, blowing out to them from the lighted windows. B B B AW AV E of anticipation ran from Linda’s gloved finder all through her as she paused, hand poised above the old-fashioned knocker. She knew that the little house would smell of spices and good things. She closed her eyes for a moment and opened them when the door opened in answer to her ring. “No. it can’t be true!” she said to herself before she spoke. Mrs. Gardiner was entirely too much like something out of a book. Look as she would, Linda couldn’t find* a flaw. Little, sweet-faced, her soft skin a network of the •wrinkles of the aged (for all that she was not truly old), Mrs. Gardiner was Linda’s iiea of A Mother. Her white hair was drawn back in a simple knot. Her slipping spectacles were gold-rimmed. Her dress of dark blue taffeta might have been six weeks or six years old. The diamond sunburst just above the tqp of the white lawn apron was all that she had left of days that her son would not remember. In that quick second, Linda wondered what her own mother was like. The pretty, frivolous girl who had run away from her little daughter. “I’m Linda Bourne, Mrs. Gardiner,” she said. bub “VX7'ELL, now this is a pleasant VV surprise!” Mrs. Gardiner had drawn her into the small hall. It did smell of spice and . . . and tobacco, Linda thought Approvingly. “We were afraid you weren’t going to be able to come, after all. I told Peter to call you and see if that gentleman might have left by

now, but he said maybe you’d come anyway. And I see you have.” Linda was slightly swept off her feet. She had planned to confess that she was suddenly ashamed and had come to apologize, but now Mrs. Gardiner had given her a graceful way out so that none of them need be hurt and-she seized it. “Mr. Gardiner said he would call for me. but I wasn’t sore what time I would be free. I took a chance, ; breaking in on you this way, because I wanted to meet you. Pete . . Mr. Gardiner told me such lovely things about you.” B B B “V7'OU mustn’t mind him, Miss Bourne. He says lovely things about everybody, and very lovely things about you.” Suddenly Linda felt her back go a little straighter. She didn’t iyant Pete Gardiner to say lovely things about her. She didn’t want him to think of her. She resented any implication that there might be anything but the most casual relationship between them, as a woman does when she is in love with another man. “I sent him to a little shop down i the street for cream. We're going to have strawberry shortcake. He’ll be back in just a minute. Make yourself comfortable, I’ve got to see about my biscuit.” “Hello,” Linda said to Pete befor he had time to recover from his surprise. “My caller left earlier than I expected and I came to sur* prise yoy.” B B B “That’s . . . why that’s fine.” Pete had to readjust his thoughts about Linda. Disappointment had given way to hot anger after he had talked to her on the telephone, but now all that had disappeared. He liked her for coming. He liked her for the old tweeds she wore and the easy way she had greeted him. He liked her. B B B “TTI7'ANT to hear the news?” *’ She nodded. “The Blade needs a gal to write society news. I was talking to Barrett about you If you’d like a job like that, drop in and see him tomorrow morning.” (To Be Continued.)
