The 911 score of the Narbrook teamcertainly was a noteworthy feat .

It certainly Is a grand race, and t hefinish prom'ises to be a hot one. Maythe best team win.

Rodgers, of the Narbrook t eam, Isa welcome acquisi t ion to the league.Besides being a consistently goodbowler, he is an all around good fellow. H is 192 and 170 games 'had muchto do with the Narbrook victory overMontgomery the other night.
