carded by John S. Blick, the
man behind the guns" over at
Convention Hall, that for perhaps
the first time, since the inaugural
in 1927, the classic Howard Camp
bell Sweepstakes will be forced to
share the spotlight.
In reality a drab collection OF port
able bleacher seats taking up four
ALLEYS, the Stadium" nevertheless,
represents q seed for much potential
growth. Blick's stadium" is the first
ever constructed for duckpins in the
country and 1t packs an IDEA tnat is
far from day dream.
Two bowling bills have been carded
for the grand opening tomorrow, one
TO start at $50 pm. and the other at

productive of about as good bowling as
a bowling fan would care to see, while
the evenings card is as colorful as
bowling events come.

Barnes and Won Dreele in a doubles
battle. also five games. Another singles
match, this time between Pactni and
Won Dreele, will round out the pro-
