Sparks And Flashes From
 The Power Pin League

While Frank ByrneS turned in over a one hundred average for the night, he did not seem to get that hook of his working just to his liking. You know, Frank has spent considerable spare moments on the fairways during the past summer and we think that the strain of keeping the slices and hooks of the golf pill has the same effect on his bowling hook. Now that his golf clubs have been put in the moth balls aLd his mind is free to concentrate on bowling, we look forward to some good bowling on Franks part.
 A team that is going somewhere is that gang of Hugo Lange's. They knocked off Stewie Heitman's ag- gregation two games. Say, by the way, if you wish to see some speed, plant yourself in bac kof this Can nonball" Strid and watch him burn the alleys. Has htis boy smoke? :? Let me tell you, brother, when this boy starts the ball down the maple it's going somewhere and boy, oh boy, in what a hurry.
 If Ed Bly's total of three seventy four for the night is an indication of what he is going to do this sea- son, we know of few of the boys who had better start practicing CT they will be among the also rans.
 We missed the presence of Bill Howe, the demon rooter from the service building. When Bill gets that pipe organ voice of his center ed on any particular bowler, let me tell you that bowler has a rough evening. What's the matter. Bill ? Domestic difficulties?
 The strain of teaching the mys. teries of Dhm's la wtO 8 class eacl Monday night at the service build ing did not have a bad effect or the bowling of Dan McNulty. H, turned in about three hundred fol his total, which is not so bad fol the first nigI
 Danny Bergin, who is assistan, anchorman on Frank Mellon's team sure got very bad breaks consider ing the number of times that he hit that old head pin. Never mind Danny. maybe the first night had something to do with it. Nineteen weeks left, so don't feel too bad about it.
 Fred Johnson and Vince Hayes the laboratory twins, are newcOm. CTS in the league who for beginners got away with 8 fair start. We predict that this man Johnson will be giving the boys a run for their money if he takes up bowling as seriously as he does golf.
 We don't think that there is a member in the league who gets the kick out of bowling that Fred Drummond does. It would take something like broken leg to keeI him away from the alleys on Wed. nesday night. He had a good first night, being among the boys whc totaled three hundred. When tha, south paw hook of his gets work. ing, 1t does dire things to the pins
 Bill Leroy was not present, hay. ing a very good reason. Bill, YOU know, is combining his vacation with a honeymoon. The destinie. or his team were turned over t( Napoleon Martel who carried or very well in his captains absence They set Bill Growers demons bacl four points.
 A. J. Colucci is going in fol bowling on a big scale this year He Is also a member of the Elks league, who do their bowling or Monday evenings. He is trying ( new ball this year which he ha, nicknamed the "Combination Spe cial." He says that when he get, this one perfected, he is going tt De one of the head men in tn, league. Amt that somethin'? Charlie GOggins who does a lit tle grand juryfng on the side u, Ihomaston way, says that he woul( nave had much better score i Buck Bergfn who was on the op posing team had not made him tn, victim of his wise cracks. If w, remember right, Charlie is an oIt hand at passing out the chin must, himself.
 With the new adornment on tn. upper lip, Ed Morin was mistaker for Warren Baxter of movie fame Ed claims that the new mousta oh, seems to help him kep the old bal just where he wants it to go. or hearing Eds statement Mike Smitl claims he knows a few guys wh, should grow boards. So long until next week and, say don't forget to be on hand early some of us birds who wait until w, get home to eat have been inform ed that melas that have beer warmed over four times lose thei food values. So have a heart. Big Jim Riley of the meter de partment contributed these bowl ing notes. We certainly would b, glad to hear from you more often Jim.
