Top Bowlers Get the Bird
“Lucky 13” proved to be a
lucky game at Aukruk Lanes for
six local bowlers last Sunday. Some
first-class bowling was necessary
to snag the prize winning scores
over a fine turnout of competi
tors. though.
First prize in the Men’s Divi
sion, a turkey, went to George
Wadhelm. George is always one of
the top contenders in any of
these contests and his big 850
series Sunday was just enough to
win the center piece for his holiday
dinner table.
Right behind George in the
scoring was another constant scor
ing threat, Carl Glavinovich, with
a fine 849 series. In third place
with a valiant effort was Ray
Caudle, 843. Carl and Ray each
walked off with a smoked ham.
In the Women’s Division, Ike
Schick produced the outstanding
effort of the day with a surpris
ing 811 series; turkey time is here
again for Ike and her family. Run
nerup in that division was Paul
ine Martinez with a 782, followed
by Borgny Reader's 734. Pauline
and Borgny also have provided a
ham for the holiday table.
The obvious enthusiasm for
this particular contest indicates
that a repeat performance should
be forthcoming in the very near
future. Watch for announcements
of dates and times. Any sugges
tions or requests for specific types
of events that local bowlers might
have can be addressed to Aukruk
Lanes or to Werner Bohrer,
Chairman of the Nome Bowler’s
Association.
The longest sermon, delivered
by Clinton Locy of West Richmond,
Wash., in 1955, lasted 48 hours and
18 minutes. . . . When he finished
only eight members of the congre
gation were still on hand.
