PAGE TWELVE THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 195 1 BOWLING ) i | man, 231; Blanche Norton, 224; Vi The first section is over and the Lollipoppers finished in a blaze of glory, taking all three points from the second - place Hecklers. Could it be those de- licious lollipops? 'The Topnots went all out, too, taking three points. from the Screwballs. This puts the Topnots in first place as to total pins, and that means the playoffs for you, folks. The Pin- busters whitewashed the Spitballs, and the Shmoos took three from the Whippersnappers. All right you, Whippersnappers, Wwe all know that you have been holding back, not wanting to waste your talents and luck in a .lost cause, but we are starting a new sec- tion, Don't say you weren't warn- ed . And one thing more, if you can't get out to bowl, please let your captains know in time to get spare bowlers, as-it is next to im- possible to win on dummy scores, and a couple of teams have been especially hard hit in this regard. Don't forget too, that we have to have an attendance of 95 per cent in order to get our rebate and we're going to need the money. Next week being the last bowl- ing night before Christmas, your committee has arranged a Christ mas Roll, so let's see everybody | out. High lady for the evening was Rhea Edgar with 221, but Audrey Keays took the high double with 385. Bob Lean was high for the men with 306, and Harold Perry had the high double with 471.

CHURCH LEAGUE The tightest bowling of the seas- on to date was seen in the games of the Albert Street Church League on Monday evening, when no team was able to take full points, and in once case the teams were tied for their two-game total . Top- ranking bowlers were fewer than usual, but they made up for that by registering some really high scores. Closest game of the night was between the Nu-Macs and the Sliders, each winning a game and | play off one frame each next Mon- | day to decide who gets the extra | point. The other games of the evening saw the Spikes taking two two the Jokers' one, the Hit and Miss crew taking two from the Sparks, the Hustlers taking two points from the Lucky Sevens and the Fishers taking two from the Nit-wits. With one point to come for either the Nu-Macs or the Sliders, the league now stands as follows; Hit and' Miss Lucky Seven Jockers Hustlers Sparks Fishers Spikes Numacs Nitwits Sliders The Hustlers, with 2034 had the top double of the evening, with the Lucky Sevens having the. highest single of 1164. Coming down to individual per- formances, Art Allman had a ter- rific night with 552, from scratch, his games being 308 and 244. Al- bert Walker had the top single with 323, and had a double of 470. Norm Fisher rolled a double of 490, with 291 in his second game. Other doubles over 425 were regi- stered by J. Gordon, 459; L. Seeley, 470; Harry Longbottom, 446; How- ard Norton, 435; E. Taylor, 426. Other singles over the 220 mark were as follows; J. Gordon, 271; E. Taylor, 258; Howard Norton, 254; H. Longbottom, 291; L. Seel- ey, 249; 221; Ed. Holland, 224; A. Parry, 224; Carl Morgan, 232, Only two of the women bowlers topped the 400 mark, Amy Sargent scoring a nice 440 and Vi. Blatch maintaining her good record with 421. High single for the ladies was also by Amy Sargent, with a 260 count, Winnie Scott being in next place with 247. Others over the 200 bracket were L. Parry, 236; L. All- "ssesvssccssnsnns sesesssnanes Blatch, 221, 200; E. Westlake, 215; G. Seeley, 211; E. Snow, 209; Vi Pike, 203; A. Snudden, 202. Harry Atkinson with 78 and A. Gordon with 83 and 88 were down in the Lemon League. E. Westlake went down with 72 in the first game but came right up again with a fine 215 effort in the second. On Monday night games were drawn for the exchange of Christ- mas gifts. These gifts, not to ex- ceed 50 cents in value, will be brought to the alley next Monday evening, which will be the last night of bowling for the year 1951. Bowling will be resumed on Mon- day, January 7. ST. GREGORY'S LEAGUE Due to a shortage of baby-sitters, we were unable to attend last week's bowling and therefore very sorry we let our team down; they sure needed us. Monday night's bowling wound up the second section with Dodgers taking the points. (But that was juss luck, if their opponent only had that extra bowler. I guess you did a wrong deal there, Don, he should have gone on the lowest team, meaning the Aces. I think then the Sneak-Inns would have managed to win.) Sneak-Inns, Hard Lucks tied for second place with 17 points. Smoothies came in third place. Flukes, Zombies and Bouncers tied with 11 points for fourth place. Dodgers, Black Jacks, Jokers took Dilly Dally's split 3-1 with Duds, Sneak-Inns and Zombies. 350. Roberta Gates took the ladies' high triple and high single of the night with 722 and 301. bowling, kids. I sure wish .I could do it.

TR AIMIAIN ANFA | I KAINING AREA LACK HINDERS 21th BRIGADE By DOUGLAS HOW With the Canadians in Germany -- Plans to pitch Canada's 27th Brigade soldiers -- some of them in the army only a short time -- into a tough training schedule to make them ready for battle have been running into German snags. The Canadians need more room to train in the Hannover area which is their main base. The Germans don't like to provide the room the Canadians want for the understandable reason that they want the space themselves, for farming and other purposes. . The dickering, marked by pro- posals and counter-proposals about this and that piece of land, has been going on some weeks with Britons acting for the Canadians because they are the ones with the legal status necessary for deal- ing with local German authorities. Hannover's largest newspaper, Hannoversche Presse, already has published one article telling of ef- forts to take over a large heath as well as some farmlands sur- rounding it, saying that people of the area are against it and that two members of parliament have been helping to fight their battles. It wouldn't be so bad, says the Presse, if they only wanted the heath -- where thousands of Ger- man cavalrymen have trained in the past--- but why 'these few thousand Canadians" need more than that is beyond the German paper. Technically, Britian as an oc- cupying power has the right to requisition land but she doesn't like to do it at this late stage of | the occupation, nor do the Cana- dians want her to. Chances are that a lot of the 27th Brigade's training will be done a fair distance from camp -- not an unusual thing in Europe --such as on a large moor some 25 miles north of where the first brigade- size exercise is likely to unfold in January. A Santa Clans? Yes -- Indeed! ¢ --_-- i A little girl's curiosity has led to a bit of Christmas pniosophy, that has since become part of the Yuietide tradition in tie Unitsa States: | One day--in December--in 1897, Virginia O'Hanlon wrote a letter to the New York Sun. "I am eight years old. Some of my little friends say there is na Santa Claus. My papa says: 'If you see it in the Sun, it's so.' Please tell me the truth--is there a Santa Claus?" Because we believe the reply, with its message of keen, spiritual insight, deserves reading o'er and o'er again, we are presenting it again. It was written by Francis E. Church, a writer for the old Sun, Here it is: "Yes, indeed! "Virgima, your little friends are wrong. They havc been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age -- they do not believe except what they see -- they think that nothing can be which is uot comprehensible! by their little minds. "All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's are little. "In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless worlu about him, as meas= ured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge. 'Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. "He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to you life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias, There would be no childlike faith. then, no poetry, no romanc. to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight, The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguishe "Not believe in Santa Claus! You might a well not believe in fairies!' "You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nob dy .:2es Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus -- the most real things in the world are those neither children nor men can see "Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there -- nobody can conceive or imag- ine all the wonders that are unseen and unseeable in the world. "You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which n~t the strongest man, or even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside the curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. "Is it all real? -- ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding. "No Santa Claus! Thank God! -- he lives, and he lives forever -- a thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood." | Orange, 1; Black, 2; Tan, 1. | __ {| The group is still going *strong. | | We will have to get bowling if we | tare going to catch them.
