"2EKE ... Those scoreless champs, t . Woodstock Chevys, after playing ^ three straight scoreless ties, finally scored a touchdown against Racinc ^ in their grid battle Sunday, only to ' lose 13-6. Tough luck after waiting aH these days for a counter. Bab* Ruth, who stems to be quite a bowler as Will as a baseball player, tells the o^f&out the alleys he encountered while on a barnstorming tour, where the boards weren't shellaced on the lefjt side because there were no left hand bowlers in the vicinity. Another* Scotch joke and a true one. In direct contrast to the perform, ance of young Gene Nye, J. P. Weber, one of the real oldtimers in th» bowling game in these parts, warmed up, not with 239, but with a meagre 200 game and then back with enough pins to gather 591 for h!s evening's labor. Young and old, they All have tfeeir chanoe in the game. , > - • Gent Nye, a rookie bowler fn the Forester league last season, sprang ;big surprise in the league opener Ust week when he rolled a 239 game Tor a starter. Gene's average last | year for thirty-five games was a mere 145 and he came through with 480 in the post-season doubles. Must be he is aiming high this year. Rockne preached all last week that his boys would probably suffer a l«tdown against Pittsburg after the strenuous Carnegie game the Satur- -day before and true to Ms prediction they had it. They let down Pitt with only a 35-19 licking after they had rolled up thirty-five points in the first twenty minutes of tlie game. The K. C. bowljng league is due to organise tonight and will most likely swing into action next Monday night. The Knights had one of the' classiest leagues in the vicinity last season with such notables as Red Winkel, Hank Weber, BUI Bickler, Alderman Schaefer and Brother Henry and William Green, Ed Smith airi others too numerous to mention. * ~ Most of us common folk are wondering just what kind of smallpox this Bruder person had to be confined for the short time of two weeks- No doubt the lad was sick and there is also no doubt but that he one of the hardtack guys of the game, but anybody that completely recovers from the serious illness that he contracted in that short time must have some good fortune. PWs _ „ v St. Mary's scrappy little squad from Woodstock took the big Elgin |i B. team into camp last Saturday when the lighter line just ripped thb W#r boys' defense Pieces to ^ score two touchdowns and win 13-0, With the Leonards gone not much of the team was expected this season, ^ut Steussy seems to have furnished the necessary stuff to escape that dread of aO coaches, the Inbetween year. i Here is one, that may interest ' i some of our transient duck hunters. ; The" four states of Iowa, Illinois, 'i# Missouri and Wisconsin have set lines governing the duck hunters on the ; Mississippi river upon which all these > states border. Duck hunters will be permitted to hunt on the river with- .y out a nonresident license providing ... they do not land on a bar connected ^ with an adjoining state or upon islands taxed by another stats. Pl4 I? The action of the Big- Ten Athletic J? t Commission in turning down the pro- ' posal to transfer the Notre Dame- ' Northwestern game to Soldiers Field ^ -*'"3 that charity might receive about " $176,000, came as a big surprise t-> *' , most grid fans. Seems they think that the profs must be blind to pres ^ ent conditions in order to refuse po- ^ such a common sense request- Guess ? most of us would rather be human than be a member of such a commit- ; tee, though perhaps they do know what is best, but we rather doubt it. POQVTS Things are just about in full swing on the Palace alleys at present with the K. of C- bowlers the only remaining ones to swing into action. They are expected to organize tonight and will most likely commence their leagup schedule next Monday evening, which has been seServed fer them each week. The Foresters dropped in and slaughtered the pins in true woodsman fashion, but it remained for Gene Nye, last year's rookie, to start the old,timers off with a neat 233 game, the highest of any of the league scores of the opening week. J. P. Weber, one of the real eld timers as far as bowling is concerned in this neck of the woods, hong up the high series for the opener with 584, with Pat Boley assaulting the masses in strenUous fashion to topple 66? for second place.

Britz, one of the lads who has Been doing so much practicing the last few weeks, was the high scorer of the event witn 144, 180, and 200 for a 523 series. Hi? 200 was also high single game. Father Weitekamp of Spring Grove was an active participant and is to be reckoned with in the future when the stand-outs are to be picked.

This was McHanry's fourth loss in the circnit. McCracken's men started out strong but when DiBona got warmed up :t was just too bad. The young Marengo lad is one of the standouts of the present season in Northern Illinois and when he gets going it is just too bad for the opposition.

The poifch, which was made up at Elgin and was on a Chicago bound mail train on August 23, came up missing before the train reached the Union station.
