Barbasol Hits Year's First 3000 Score

harley Harbison Tops All Loop Pinmen With Mark of 667.

BY BERNARD HARMON That the elusive tenpin is in for some severe punishment during the present season was evidenced last night as another group of bowling leagues initiated their schedules on local alleys. Jess Pritchett's Barbasol quintet cracked the first 3000 total of the new season to set the pace among teams in action, while Charley Harbison, a member of the Big Four Railroad League, got away to a flying start with a 667 that topped all solo efforts. Harbison fired games of 188, 244 and 235 in the railroader’s opening at the Fountain Square Alleys. Francis Raftery closed with a pair of double centuries to total 629, which was good for runner-up honors. :

Murphy Has 645

Barbasol assembled its top total as the newly organized Beam’s Recreation League got under way at the Pennsylvania Alleys. Games of 1008, 1036 and 1034 brought the aggregation the big series, four memBers passing the 600 mark. Johnny Murphy had 645, Don Johnson 640, Lee Carmin 605 and John Fehr 603. Individual honors of the loop were taken by Fonnie Snyder, who collected a 659 ‘through games of 211, 234 and 214, pacing the Bowes Sealfast in its triple win over Coca Cola. Three members of the Packard Motors turned in honor counts to give the team a two-to-one viciory over Selmier Towels. Milt Wimberly totaled 621, Leo Ahearn 619 and John Blue 604. Hank Shriver’s 637 was the top score of the losers. Falls City Hi-Bru, 1936 A. B. C. champions, opened with a double victory over Marmon-Herrington. Carl Hardin paced the Brus with 593, while Paul Striebeck collected 616 for the losers. Led by Harry Wheeler's 620, Marott Shoes took a pair from L. S. Ayres & Co., who had Bud Argus’ 616 as its leading contribution. With seven 1000 games dotting the score sheets, it appeared that the new circuit might rival the Indianapolis League in scoring achievements this year. Washington Opens

The Washington League opened |its season at the Illinois Alleys,

all team contesté. A quintet of 600 totals were turned in, George Godwin acing the field with a 631. Virgil Kehl had a 626, Joe Hughes and Paul Cooper 605s and Noah Mishler a 601. Max Patton Cafe took team honors with a 2773 total. When no individual of the Insurance League passed 600 in its opening session at the Pennsylvania, Harry Schornstein led the scoring with a 581. Other 600 totals of the evening were turned in by Nick Noah of the Bankers’ League, who had a 633, and Parsons of the Construction League, who totaled 605.

Raw Verdict Claimed The tenth was scoreless and the Redskins were blanked in the eleventh. Gabby Street's Saints fought out of the deadi in their half and annexed the honors by a one-run margin. The winning run tallied on a disputed decision by Umpire Kober. Pasek beat out an infield hit as first up and reached third on Mc- [ Williams’ ‘single. Hutchinson bounced to Sherlock, who apparently had Pasek out at the plate ~ with room to spare, but Kober ruled |safe and the game was over. The Indians gathered around the umpire to lodge a violent protest, but he was the chief for the day and got away with the raw decision. Kober also was criticised for calling a wide pitch a strike on Berger in the ninth. It would have been a fourth ball, and the sacks were loaded at the time. Preparations have been made to handle a large crowd at Perry Sta dium tomorrow. Indianapolis fans were thrilled over the pace set by the Indians in St. Paul and are ready to give the home boys a rous< ing welcome.
