from King Pin by 319 pins, while
the Papermen trailed King Pin by

curb Cafe club. battled down the
stretch during the waning weeks of
the season. always within few
pins Of each other. But despite the
leader of last season, Mandley won,
establishing an average of 116-47,
which was just 13 pins better than
Friends. Hap Burtner Of King Pin
was the only other bowler who rolled
in 54 games or more to attain an
average of lis,
Bradley Mandley also got other
laurels, being credited with SO strikes
