This was the last game of the sea- 

 son, and interest has held steadily 

 throughout the year, the teams being 

 so well matched that the scores ran 

 very close. The summing up is not 

 complete, but it is stated by Secretary 

 Lorman that the silver cup was won 

 by Al. Fischer over Wm. Wolf by only 

 13 pins.
