pins, but the star of t he quintet is Charles
Reinlie. Reinlie, who is the man on the ex-
treme right in the group here shown, is the
holder of the 1926 national record for a perfect
score in bowling, as he made 300 points at last
year's National Tournament, in Toledo, O.
Reinlie's accomplishment is very rare, as only
one other man (Knox, of Philadelphia) has
attained the same number of points in twenty-
five years of national bowling contests.
So good is this American Piano Plate team
that all the executives of the organization have

become enthusiasts, and President W. F.
Walker of the company, to whose active en-
couragement and personal interest much of
their success is due, is anxious to match them
against any other bowling team in the piano
or supply industries.
Advertising Manager J. 1'". Hyde and Travel-
ing Representative H. P. Newquist, who con-
stantly visit the trade in the interest of the
company, are also boosters for the "Plates."
They would like, if possible, to get up a
tournament in the piano and supply indu>tries,
and if they do it is a reasonable supposition
that the Racine team will not finish last. In
the picture, reading from left to right, the
members of the "Plates" are Gilbert l?eth,
Htnry Butt, Leo Haas, Ed Nelson and Charles
Reinlie.
President Walker himself was a member of
his own team for quite a while, as bowling is
one of his recreations, but due to the necessity
of attending to the constantly growing business
of his company, he did not have time to par-
ticipate as often as he wanted to. But he harks
up the" men by his personal and official en-
couragement and the people of Racine (which
the "Plates" are advertising by their achieve-
ments) appreciate this.
