F SUN LIFE BUILDING Hamilton, Ont. Phones: Bus., 3618; Res., 7â€"5518 BOILED SNOWFLAKES Can you imagine that Peach King‘s team rolling a score of 1043 to trim up the Wonders. ‘They did. Old Bill Schwab must have been giving that left leg an extra twist . . . Wonders are still at the top of the league, although they are only three points ahcad of the Generals, Bill Suilivan is doing a great job keeping the Gens, up where they are. . . . Poor old Gas House, down in seventh place. Haven‘t been any higher all season. Probably figuring to explode a string of wins in the second half of the schedule. .. . Armando Commando Hummel has perâ€" formed wonders with the Firemen the past month. ‘They have jumped from 10th to 14th place. Chief LePage must be feeding them on chemical. . . . Legion team is just hanging onto the bottom edge of the schedule by their finger tips. A sudden jar and they will be out entireâ€" ly, . . . Oliver Iron Head Shaw and his Black Cats are still in there battling, being in fifth place. Mlu-nmhnhnhldw‘ do not bow! as good a game on the alleys as they do in the meat marâ€" ket‘s back shop. . . . Owls Club captain is now known as Jimmy "112" Dunham. . . . Doris McBride is still ready to accept fees from the Peach Queens for the first half of the schedule. . . . Doris and her president Sammy Curtis better step on some of those lady teams and make them be a little more punctual in reporting for their games. . . , The teenâ€" age league will get under way in a few days. A sponsor has been found and a handsome trophy will be hung up for the kids to play for. . . . Information to hand is that restrictions have been lifted to a certain extent on cups and trophies and they can now be purchased. Better see Ernie Buckenham and have him get you samples. A trophy on disâ€" play is better than just one on paper. . . . Did you ever hear tell about the time Norm. Harris bowled the perfect game. Its‘ good, . . . There hasn‘t been a change in any of the high scores in the past month. What‘s the matter?
