He batted 304, and up to the last four

Herbert McCoy "came back" laat night
and not only came back, but defeated the
present champion, Harry Symes. Tho
game, which was close during the early
Innings, was In Symes' favor, although
neither one of the contestants displayed
any remarkable form. Symes gradually
fell behind In his work, losing the lead
bit by bit. until his opponent finally
jumped to the front where he remained,
till the final score of 300 to 277 ended the
affair.
McCoy displayed a good part of his true
form, while Symes fell down woefully,
never seeming able to get the balls to
rolling right. Time and time again he
fell down on shots that ordinarily would
prove ensy ones for him. Both men se
cured an average of three billiards an
Inning, which Is below their general game.
A large crowd witnessed the contest,
staying until the game closed at It
o'clock. Tonight Cahn and Chambers
will meet.

BoTTlInc Note.
The pin boy says: "If Howell can't win
games for the Popel-Glllers. 'Rod' Rate
kin." Don't be In a rush. The money prizes
won at the Midwest tournament have not
been received yet.
The 600 scores In the Booster league
this week were: Bland, 33; Ocander,
620, and Howell 617.
The Guarantee Clothing team was a
little off feed this week. Arnstein rolled
their high game with a low total of 499.
The Clara Bellas won two and the
Popol-Glllers lost two. This Uaves a
small gap ,of two games between the
leading teams.
I Notice the three auccesalve consistent
games Bland rolled Tuesday night. He
.started with 206,- followed with 210 and
I flnlnhw4 nh '(fl
' The Booster league will take a vacation
until after tha city tournamenL Three
lont weeks before they start knocking
! the splinters off the muple.
t A record total ot 6S4 Monday night and
1 a 633 total Tuesday night shows the kind
; of rolling Bland Is putting up. It he ran
only repeat in tne city tournament.
Jimmy Jaroah sure haa been producing
the goods for the Clara Belles. He has
hla famous hook ball working and threat
ens to b up among the leaders. Hla lat
est offerings were 678 and 596.
Pierronet tried tho pawn shop system
Tuesday night. He rolled three different
balls, but even then ha was unable to
make a score. Walt until he gets hla
old three-hole ball back. He will make
them all go.
Artie Ocander sprang Into the limelight
Tuesday night and rolled a 63) game. He
came close to breaking the Uague record
nf U87. but fell short lust ten olna. He
i was responsible for tha Brandela winning
' two from the leaders.
Harry Eldson says the Clara Belles am
getting too many pins, and that Is why
M10 only rolled 494. Harry advocates the
handicap system, but says that a little
! bean work should be ueed with 1L He
1 la "Red" Ratakln's closest rival when It
cornea to being a handicap dopeater
There was much cheering In the Popel-
Glllar camp Tueaday night when the score
aheet showed a 617 total after the name
'of Howell, their htro. The position of
I tho Popel-GUler tearu Is becoming shaky,
and it Howell cn get bexk Into the same
"Bud" Fisher
old 600 form he will be a great factor In
keeping them In first place.
Too much can't be said about that
1,833 the El Paxos put up this week. This
Is a record game for three-man teams.
Tho El Paxos are In a C class league
and that alone makes the scora stand
out above the others. This team seems
to be having its own way In the Mer
cantile league, and unless pome of the
opposing teams stop them soon, the pen
nant winners will be decided long before
the close of (he season.
Mr. F. M. Oxley, a member of the ex
ecutive committee ot the Chicago Bowllnp
association, was In the city for a short
stay Tuesday. He says that there is a
great amount of bowling In the Windy
City this season, but that their scores
are not aa heavy as tho ones rolled in
Omaha. He was much surprised to hear
that Omaha and South Omaha had six
ten rnlzed leagues. Ho also made tho
statemt. that Omaha's showing at the
Midwest tournament at Kansas City
would place It In a prominent position
on the bowling map. Referring to th
dope hall. Mr. Oxley mid tho Chicago
bowlers voted to Instruct their delegates
to the American Bowling congress at
Toledo to cast their votes against tho
ball, but that this did not bar Chicago
bowlers from using It In their lcaguo
games. Mr. Oxley could not see why
they were, creating such a disturbance
over the dodo ball, when It was plain to
be seen that It had as many disadvan
tages as It had advantages. Ha con
gratulated Omaha bowlers on tho system
they Intend to use In tho coming city
tournament, nnd ventured to say that
the Chicago city tournament, as well cu
other city tournaments, would be run
along the same lines. '
