LOCAL TOURNEY BIO SUCCESS
Last week marked the close of Omaha's
seventh annual city tournament, the most
successful one held by the local associa
tion of bowlers. The entry was the larg
est of any previous scratch tournament
ever held and the scores were higher than
those of past tournaments. Competition
was keen from start to finish and no high
scores were sure of their place In the
standing until the last ball was thrown.
The prize fupd was a good one and
when Secretary Cain sent out the checks
Tuesday night several bowlers were due
to receive a neat sum for their showing;
In the matches.
Krug's Luxus team made the best show
ing In money winnings, while the Storx
team took all honors by being1 declared
city champions. Learn was the Individual
star of the meet, winning the most money
and also the city championship In the
singles and all-events, and shared with
Goff the two-man championship. Both
Learn's and Goffs rolling was of the sen
sational variety.

Carl Johnson has Jumped again. This
time he left the El Paxos. Carl has the
record for the number of jumps in one

The reorganised Krug's Luxus lineup
presents a formidable array. With Con
rad added to a lineup already containing
Learn. Goff, Wartchow and McCarthy, a
stronger combination could not be orga
nized. They will be expected to go good
at Peoria.
Over 600 five-men teams are entered
In Peoria. One hundred and fifty of
these are entered from Chicago. St. Louis
also has large entry.
The Lincoln bowlers were more erratic
In the city tournament than they should
be. The capital city contains some good
bowlers, but Robertson, with a 639 single
game, was the only one to get in the
prize money.
In the recent handicap tournament the
teams from smaller towns throughout this
state and Iowa demonstrated that they
were equal to Omaha's teams in the ten
pin game. This will have a tendency to In
crease the entry of the big midwest
tournament to be held here next fall. The
bowling game is flourishing In the
smaller (owns and they are anxious to
attend these big meets, especially when
they know they are equal to teams from
larger cities.
A few we;ks ago the Grand Island
bowlers Issued an open challenge to
Omaha bowlers for a match game and
stated a preference for the Clara Belles or
Burgesa-Nash. Both of these teama wrote
an accaptance of this challenge, offering
to play three games In Grand Island and
three games In Omaha for any amount,
total pins of the six games to decide.
Tho Grand Island bowlers have not even
answered the acceptance as yet.
If arrangements can be made at Min
neapolis, a strong Chicago team will be
eeen here during the eomtng week. A
Windy Citv team composed of Nick
Hruck. Phil Wolfe, Bob Roval. Fred
Thoma and Jimmy Blouln will start a

close of the Internstlonsl tournament at

With tho nearlng of tha end or the
local basket ball season, a number of the
league quintets have become lax In their
appearance for scheduled games. Last
week th Swifts failed to show up for
two contests and as a result lost both by
the forfeit route.
In a number of games last week many
of tha players that belonged to the dif
ferent aggregations failed to appear and
resulted In teams being filled with men
who did not belong to the organization.
The switching around of playera In this
manner resulted disastrously for the
Olarkg last Tuesday, when only threa ot
their regulars showed up. The Clarks
were completely vanquished by the
Omaha High school quintet, and are now
tied by the Pirates for second placa in
the Trl-Clty circuit.
Considerable interest marked tha week's
play in the Church league. What brought
forth the greatest surprise was the closa
manner in which the South Omaha Bap
tists held the First Christians at the local
"T." The Baptist not only held the
leaders of the Church league during tha
contest, but forced tha game to an extra
three minutes to play off a tie. How-
ever, the Increased strength manifested
by the Baptl'ta will count for little mora
than naught as the season Is too far ad
vanced for them to Jump Into tha first
division.
Another surprise In the Church league
Is the steady climb ot th Kountze Mo
morlala. Threa straight victories have
put them In third place.
Hard Lock for swifts.
It 1 doubtful whether tha Swift and
Company five of tha Trl-Clty league will
play tha remaining scheduled contests.
Hard luck has so devastated the five that
a number ot the star playera have given
up the game for the season. Aerhart,
guard, was recently operated on because
of a bad arm; Shalnholts, a forward, was
forced to retire because of a weak heart,
while Philips ha been out for some time
because of sickness.
There still remains a large number of
postponed game to be played off. Home
of the quintets are so far behind that
they have taken part In only half of the
regular games. However, the playing off
of these games will make but little dif
ference, a the present leader of each
group have amply demonstrated that they
are supreme. This Is one of the reasons
for the delay of th finishing of these
contests.
Nothing more has been done by Man
ager Drummond to bring the Toledo, O.,
team here Thursday, so that th only big
game between now and the close of th
season comes on March I, when Wcsleyan
university drop oft her to meet th
Townsends. Though some time away,
preparation ar already under way for
tha big clash, a monster turnout being
expected.

George Reim Says '
Show Just Closed ,
Best for All Time
George F. Reim et the Cadillac company
of Omaha, speaking of. the automobile
show Just ended, say:
"There can be no doubt, of the real
value of an automobile show. There are
several sides to consider. First, that of
the great good to th community. Dur-1
ing the week of the show. It Is safe to
ay that from 50,000 to 100,000 people eome
to Omaha, It each one of the 50,000 people,
pend but $10, It means a half million of
dollars are distributed among -the local
merchants and hotels. Then It Is safe
to say that as much mora Is speat - for
automobiles, a percentage of which re
mains in Omaha, among tho Interested
In automobiles.
"The educational side must not be over-
looked. Years ago tha Cadillac Motor
Car company saw the great Importance
of educating the publio In the meohanlcal
construction of an automobile."
Mr. Reim adds that the purchaser of
automobiles In Omaha and the unround
ing country ar exceptionally motor-wise.
They do not rush la and hastily aoaa
ovr the car on the outside and place,
an order, because a car has an eleotrlo
tarter or horn or a bumper or something
of that sort. But they look Into the
more vital parts ot the mechanisms, en
quire Into the quality of steels and the.
power and gasoline and oil consumption.
From the number ot orders placed for
Cadlilao car in the last few days of the
show there can be no doubt of the de
cision arrived at by th careful and well.
Informed purchasers. . ; ,
This show will go down In th annals
of th Cadillac company of Omaha a
the best ever held.
