now living in Dallas, is in the spot-

game. And a gal with the initials,

“Lake Street Dallas
organized by Marie E. Morris, Ath-
letic Director.
Both leagues bowl on Wednesday
afternoon, League A getting under
way at 3 and League B at 5.
In general, the majority of the
girls are new at the sport. There
are a very few girls who have had
the opportunity to bowl at some
time or other but not on an organ-
ized basis.
The leagues have been underway
since the early part of October and
Miss Morris has reported signs of
steady improvement in both tech-
nique and scores.
There are eight teams in each
league. Each team is, as yet, desig-
nated by a number. Plans are to
have the members of the various
teams choose suitable names for
each particular team. A special
meeting for this matter will take
place in the near future.
Trucksville Leads Firemen
Trucksville Firemen lead their 8-
team Back Mountain Firemen’s
points. Tied for second are Jackson
and Shavertown with 5 and 4 for 7
points.
A 205-game was rolled by Gay-
lord in this league. He also won
high 3-game with 532.
Though the Christmas holidays
are the reason most teams will not
follow league schedules until Janu-
ary, secretary Tom DeMeo of the
Firemen, writes there will be no
bowling until January 7, 1957, be-

‘In deference to oid Saint Nicholas
there will be no games in the Back
Mountain Church Basketball League
until Saturday, January 5.
In last Saturday's games Alderson
smothered St. Therese’s 77 to 43;
Shavertown defeated East Dallas 67
to 30, and Prince of Peace defeated
Huntsville Christian 45 to 35.

cause President Ed Carey, a long-
| time employee for P. P. & L. Com-
| pany, fell into an open manhole
|and injured his bowling thumb.
Friends, kindly ‘send comic books
[to speed his recovery.
| A special board meeting will be
held the week of December 31.
| Tom DeMeo, secretary, will notify
captains and co-captains of place
and time. Both Kunkle teams will
reorganize to see if they can put
together better teams and dig their
way out of the cellar. Gaylor upped
the league high to 205 after Ehret
topped his previous high of 202
by 203. The marked improvement
of all bowlers is amazing as aver-
ages keep jumping.
Maturi Grinds Away
Bob Maturi not only talks a good
game, he often bowls one, too, as
evidenced ' by his 224 game in the
Sunday night mixed league. He
also came in with a 3-game total
of 535.
Ethel Woolbert’s and Tess Pritch-
ard’s teams are tied for first place,
both with 24 wins and 16 losses.
Rose’ Unger's team is in third with
a 22-18 record. Though Louise
Goddard's team is in the cellar they
came through with 1,697 total pins,
B-games, to put them in a tie with
Dot Hungerford’s cellar team.
Kiwanians, Rotarians Battle
Dan Richard's “Pirates”, in the
Back . Mountain Service Clubs’
League, leads with 17 wins and only
are in second with 9 and 11 and
Bob Maturi’s “Yankees” are third |
with 8-12 record.
Paul Goddard rolled a smooth
Harold's
having trouble with body English.
Those sweeties of St. Paul's Wo-
men’s League are in each other's
ITT TT v
league. ‘“Cookies” and ‘“Crullers”
have 17 points and the “Cup
Cakes” 16.
Ruth Sprout, Dallas, is regaining
her former bowling style as she
won high individual and B3-game
high in this league with 166-440.
All-Stars Pace Commonwealth
Commonwealth Telephone Com-
pany “All-Stars” lead their league.
Jack Landis’ 254 high for the week
and also high for the league (254- |
182-183 series) was the big factor
in All-Stars 4-point sweep over the
Dreamers. Bob Hislop paced Com-
etts to 3 out of 4 points over Blazers.
He had a 193-162-175-530 series.
The league leaders are Joe Se-
kera with a season average of 168,
Theron Osborne with 165, Ray Par- |
sons 162 and Jack Landis 159. |
The Elmcrest Teenagers’ League |
is in full swing now. Leading their |
4-team league this past Friday was |
Raymond Hindrichs with, a com- |
mendable game of 165 and 421 pins
in 3 games. His dad is the sponsor |
and instructor for these boys and |
girls, all of whom are beginners. |
Trojaneers continue their pace |
with a 7-2-10 record to lead Den- |
mon’s Cities Service Station Women |
Bowlers. Peggy Dungey’s 143 was |
the best score on Tuesday night |
and she also won 3-game high with |
388 pins. In second place are the |
Milemasters, third the Super 5D’s|
and last, but not least, are the Plus |
100’s who need to call a council |
of war to encourage their tribe who
have only won one game so far. |!
Whitesell Leads Whitesell’s 1
Elwood Whitesell, who has long |
bemoaned the fact that he couldn't |
score well in league play, won high
individual in Whitesell Brothers’
Bowling League with a 195 game.
He had an excellent opportunity to
break well into the 200 figure until
the “lump came up” in the last
frame and he missed his two-pin
spare. Don’t feel bad, Elwood,
that happens to all the pros, too.
Tom Cadwalader, a tough com-
champ Tuesday night with 495 pins.
As it stands now the Nailbenders
are still at the top with 22 wins, |
10 losses. ‘The Wood Butchers sec-
ond with 18-14, the Pencil Pushers
have a 16-16 record and the Ham.- |
mer Heads are holding onto cellar |
position and seem to be unwilling
to let go of this spot. If the author
of this column were a better bowler |
things might change.
Most leagues will discontinue
bowling during the holidays and
Bob Hanson states that open bowl-
and ‘Cup Cakes” are only one
point apart at the top of
ing will be available during this
time for all students and others
