Youngsters Bowling League Offers
Keen Rivalry At Close Of Season
There’s keen rivalry and evi
dence of playoff jitters at the Elks
Bowling Lanes these days where
the concluding round of play of
the Junior Bowling winds up the
summer seasons play tonight (Fri
day).
Some of the junior bowlers have
been rolling up scores of which
even their Dads would be proud.
Top bowler in this youngster lea
gue is Steve Zehr. As of last week
his 247 remained as the top score
of the season. But some of the
others are running him some close
competition. Jack Sheridan., for
instance bowled a 245 last week,
others with a good chance of sur
passing Steve are Jim Hood and
Gary Marconi.
The many trophies to be award
ed are the reasons for this keen
competition. They are on display
in the Bank of Kodiak window.
In the play this summer, there
were 12 teams, with 7 members
to each. With 20 substitutes, a total
of 140 children were involved.
Eah member of the three top
teams will receive a trophy. In
addition, recognition will be given
the player with the high game
score; the high score for the series;
—i——_
and the girl or boy showing the
most improvement during the sum
mer’s play.
It must be remembered that
many of these children never had
a bowling ball in their hands be
fore this summer. Despite that,
this has been a hot league from
all accounts. Sponsored by the
Elks Lodge, two afternoons a
week were devoted to the keglers
sport. Tuesday, the youngsters,
both girls and boys, gathered to
practice. Friday is league play.
There’s never a dull moment—
a little bedlam at times—which
is bound to be when approximately
140 youngsters gather in the same
room, and there’s competition to
boot! You fathers and mothers
with only one or two children to
care for, yod might well ask: “How
can they manage so many, and
keep ’em under control?”
It wasn’t easy. But the volun
teer workers who have given their
time all say: The youngsters have
bejen surprisingly Well-behaved.
Norm Dinwiddie of the Elks
Lodge has been spark-plugging the
league since its beginning. He
could be seen any Tuesday and
Friday of each week, patiently ex
