around. :

everything is clean and shining,
ready for the 1962-63 season. The
spacious parking lot is filled to
capacity almost every evening as
keglers return to limber up and get
in extra practice. Helen and Tony
Bonomo are happy, busy doing
what they enjoy most. Everyone
has a question as they approach
the desk and the Bonomos try to
answer them all.
Out of Crown Imperial this year
will come three teams bowling with
Wyoming Valley Classic League;
two with Howie Davis League and
one with Women’s Independent
League. All will roll on Saturday
nights.
The young people’s league will
return on Saturday mornings;
teenagers are welcome anytime, but
those who are interested informing
a league should see Tony for help
in organizing. Afternoons after
school is dismissed would be an
excellent time for students.
All of last year’s leagues have
returned and a few new ones have
been added. Linear is back after a
year’s absence.
The house tournament is still on.
Tony has announced that there is
a spot for last minute contestants.
