ceeded In drawing a bunch of splits. No
man bowling has been as successful In
tournament bowling as this same Kern.
He not only won the single championship
at Pittsburg, but also the all-event cham
piopship. He was winner OF the middle
west championship last year and the inter
national championship in the international
