TAKES IN PEORIA
Chicago, Dec. 6 (U.R) Bowl
ing, which always considered a
"strike" the perfect play, today
was faced with a new kind of
strike which showed signs of
spreading across the country.
Detroit's bowling alleys ex
perienced walkouts in protest
of increased league rates while
Peoria, 111., alleys were silenced
by sitdown strikes against simi
lar raises.
Alley operators here also con
sidered boosting their rates, but
were watching the Detroit and
Peoria situations before taking
definite action. The rate In
creases became possible with
th lifting of OPA ceilings.
The first flareup came at
Detroit when 60,000 bowlers
threatened to boycott the alleys
because their league rates were
boosted from 27 13 cents with
rebates of five and 15 per cent
to 30 cents with a one cent re
bate. Open play, nightly, is 32
cents.
Virtually every city league in
Peoria reported that its league
schedules had been abandoned
because of price increases of 30
cents a line. The bowlers ask
ed a 25-cent schedule.

Football attendance in the sea

BATTLE ROYAL TONIGHT
The match wrestling fans have
been waiting for what may be
come a reality at Medford arm
ory tonight when Mack Lillard
presents a six-man battle royal
as an added feature to his regu
lar program of three matches.
Mat bugs have been clamor
ing for a long time for Lillard
to pit the Gray Mask with Rough
Rufus Jones. The impressario
has done just that tonight but
added something exta by toss
ing Pete Belcastro, Joe Lynam,
Gust Johnson and Angelo (Tony)
Martinelli in the ring with the
two head-butting specialists for
a battle royal.
Whether fans will get to see
the Mask and the Detroit Darky
together depends entirely on the
other four gladiators. First two
men thrown in the battle royal
will makeup the first regulation
match, second pair eliminated
will collide in the second match
and the last duo will make up
the final bout. All matches will
be for three rounds or one fall.
Just about anything can hap
pen in the battle royal for there
is more than the normal amount
of hatred between the principals.
The Mask, Jones and Belcastro
have no use for one another in
or out of the ring while Lynam,
Johnson and Martinelli don't
exactly invite the others to their
social functions.
Curtain time on the battle
royal is 8:30 p. m.
