Show BOWLING AND ITS COOKS. The fine game of bowling seems to be victimized by too mank cooks like several other good games, skat ing among the number. There are too many fingers in th -legislative pie, too many associations, too many gentlemen with axes to grind, too many promoters. Every city and every section appears to (k have a rooted predilection for spcci.il rule-making, and this will be thj death of amateur bowling unless some group of strong men take things in hand and organize on broad simple 'lines. There is no more reason rea-son why rules of bowling should dif- j fer in the Middle West from thos- 1 of the East than that the balls or . alleys of Chicago should differ in size and general character from those of New York, or Boston, or Philadelphia, Phila-delphia, or San Francisco or anywhere any-where else in the country.
