LOCAL DRIVES
ALL HAVE PIN
LEADERS
! BY GINo SINH.

There is bowling idea float
ing around town which isn't get.
ting the attention it deserves
among the duckpinners- especial
" the leaders.
The idea is this: To have
single matches between leading
bowlers of the various pin-pop'
ping plants.
Each bowling alley has at least
one man who is the class OF
the crop. He is the champ: the
guy who is looked upon admiring-
" by all those who hang around
neighborhood drives.
It is the secret ambition of all
. the other bowlers to displace him,
, yet whenever he vanquiShes a
duckpin whanger from some other
section, they brag about and
speculate on his actual position
among the city bowlers.
When aIl-star selections are 4
made and their particular
= idol is sighted, they squawk
to high heaven. Blame
favoritism, and declare that
the officials are blind, dumb
and ignorant.
The Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes, of course, bringing the
city's ranking bowlers together
under one roof at one time, con-
tributed considerably ward
pushing the head-to-head affairs
into the background.
The anxieties of various teams
and leagues to load up with the
best talent available has the
leading bowlers signed to bowl
four and five nights a week, is
another factor. It's hard to find
dates on which two topnotcn
boWlers are free.
But the spirit for individual
combat still RACES in the heart of
the various stars. Not a one but
is anxious to test himself against
all comers. and prove himself
their master.
"Team matches are all
right" commented a pin
wizard recently, "but ] would
rather risk my money on my
own arm!"
That sums the whole thing in
q nutshell. At present Jack VOL.
Stenholme is bidding fair to sue
ceed his brother, Glenn, Howard
Campbell stepping back to give
him a chance.
Campbell was the only man
who did any serious head-to-
head bowling last year. Every
one Of his matches with Jack
White, Won Dreele and George
Lang drew big audiences.
A lineup of alley champions
would be something like this:
Howard Campbell for Lucky
Strike; Jack Wolstenholme for
King Pin No. /; J.. Henry HiSer
for Bethesda: Brad Mandley for
Coliseum; Arthur Logan at King
Pin No. Q; Sam Benson for
Georgetown Recreation; Ollie
Pacini for Recreation; Hokie
Smith for Queen Pin, and Paulie
Harrison, Red Megaw or Make
Rosenberg for Temple.
Matches between these stars
could be arranged throughout the
season and would produce crowd
pleasing attractions and in no
small measure bring Washington
back to the duckpin eminence it
once held,

body-not part Of the body.
You will observe that the left
arm is slightly straighter on the
back swing. Bobby Jones has de-
clared:
Sometimes / wonder II our
concern over the straight arm
is not q useless bother"
In picture 2 we see that
Cyril Walkers initial movement
on the down swing is not an
unwinding Of the hips. That Is
very interesting. because IN that
respect he differs from larger
and heavier players.
