Frank Benkovic, the nationally
famous bowler who was sent to
Pascasoula by the Brunswick
Company, officially ended his
visit last Saturday after spending
two days improving the bowling
methods of local keglers. All who
had the opportunity of seeing MI.
Benkovic in action on the local
hardwood gained something as an
asset to their score. During his Wis
it here Benkovic bowled an ex-
hibition match against Bob Hale,
Ted Tyson, and Pete Schneider
for the benefit of all spectators
on hand. Following the match
he gave u lecture on the elements
of bowling and entertained with
a series of difficult trick shots,
one of which was a method of
spar ing a z and 10 split. Benko-
vic stressed the Importance of
oowlers trying hard to make their
spares stating that the spares
were an outstanding factor in rails
ing the bowlers store. All during
his stay here Benkovic was very
busy giving individual instruc-
ton to various bowlers request
ing it. We have been trying hard
to duplicate his split shots but
so far have not been able to mas
ter it. While Mr.. Benkovic was
here he took an order for some
ladies bowling balls that will be
placed on the local alleys. These
balls should be delivered some
time during the next week and
will supplement the few light balls
that are already on hand. This
news should greatly please the
ever increasing number of femin-
inc keglers on the Recreation Cen
ter's alleys.
"Cherchez Ia femme" is certain
ly applicable to Pascagoula's
bowling alleys at the present time.
At the time of this writing there
are forty ladies' names on the ros-
ter for womens bowling teams.
With these women as players
eight teams are being formed with
the hope that nor teams will

be sponsored by local merchants
ana organizations in the commun-

reation director, is calling a meet
ing of all lady bowlers who sign
ed his sheet for Tuesday night,
April 30. All other women key
lers who are interested in the
project are cordially invited to
attend. Looks like the ladies' are
really off to a good start in get
ting their teams formed and il
IS our prediction that a lot will
be heard from them Gas if we don't
hear a lot from every woman).
Anyway, it is a good sign to see
the ladies taking an active inter-
est in the sport and it is a defin-
lite step forward to form their
own league. At the meeting next
Tuesday they win also organize
their own womens bowling asso-
citation. We noticed last week
that several ladies took advant-
age of some good instruction from
Champion Benkovic SO its going
to be up to us men to hold our
own or the ladies will be set
