Evening star., 1931-12-12

ISo AShNA1NJ tle only Eve
x ming Star tournament
- champion to repeat and
one of the really greal girl
money bowlers" of all time, will
go into The Stars next big duck
pin jubilee, a week from next
Monday, a 20-to-1 shot at best,
despite the fact that she thus far
has enjoyed the best season of her
victory studded career.
Howard Campbell, among the most
consistent duckpin stars of all time and
member OF the Tournament Commit
tee, quoted the odds on Mrs. Ackman
last night, and no more astute bowling
observer is hereabout unless it be Lon
ME Krauss
Campbell, as member Of the Lucky
strike staff, has been in a position to
witness Mrs. Ackman's game this year
IN the Eastern Star League, and despite
that 10 OF her 13 sets in that loop have
been over 500 and that her 1862 aver
age Is the highest she has ever attained,
toward cannot see how the Georgetown
recreation and Ruth star could be
quoted at less than 2O-to-1 shot.
There are too many girls in this
seasons tournament to make Mrs. Ack-
man or any other star a favorite," saws
Campbell. Right now it's almost a sure
thing that all previous entry records for
women will be broken"
A GAINST prohibitive odds, Mrs. Ack-
n man triumphed in The Star tourna-
ment last year, repeating her tri-
umph of 1929. This season, on the Lucky
Strike drives, she has rolled among her
III -than-300 sets scores of $50.
348, 333, $50 and 329. Her high game
is LAG. She probably is as consistent a
girl bowler as any in the game TODAY.
Her 1893 set mentioned above was pro-
duced with three Ill games and each
was rolled with three marks.
Despite this, BesS Ackman will be al
most just another contender for the
1881 star title, play for which will open
december II at the Lucky Strike.
Campbell also predicted The Stars
1uIetlde singles would be productive of
generally higher scores than any of the
three previous events.
