Wnlle ne was away OIl d uuCh-
hunting trip back in the later COS,
a set of cut-down ten-pins were in
troduced on the alleys at his
place, McGraw and Robinson, and
became popular. Quite a few OF
the customers taking turn at
the game as a diversion from the
regular tenpinS.
Robinson, coming back from the
hunt was attracted by several
young fellows whaling away at
the miniature NAPLES. After
watching them while, he turned
to a friend and observed casually,
They fly around like ducks,
don't they?"
Immediately the idea captured
the popular imagination as did
the game itself. In short order
it had spread throught Baltimore,
starting the long war between
duckpins and tenpinS which fl
nally found the small pins COM
plete masters of the field.
Everybody wanted to try
this game in which the pins
flew around like "ducks"
rather than Just tOpple over
with flat, listleSS "klunk."
Those primitive pins really
flew around, too. Crudely carved
down, from discarded big pins,
they were an odd assortment IN
size, weight and shape.
It was not until Is years later
that a George L. Isemann was to
appear on the scene, Seething
with fiery ideals for the game,
standardize it and with superb
tact and diplomacy enforce those
standards to every ones satisfac-
ton.
