Hopes to Open on New Field.
Andrews hopes to have its new
athletic field, including lights,
for the opening game with
Boiling May 6. Capt. John
Glynn. special services officer at
Andrews, said the new field
when completed will have, in
addition to the baseball diamond,
two softball diamonds and a
football field with sufficient
lighting for all. The base. how
eyer, will not have a football
team until next year, he added.
The Rockets will play about
a 60-game schedule on a home
and-home basis, meeting teams
within the conference and sup
plementing with other area serv-
ice teams and top-ranking anna
teur clubs. All home games will
be played on off-duty hours and
for that reason the majority
probably will be under lights.
Finals in the Southern Dis
trict, which includes Andrews
and Boiling, will be held August
24-28, probably at Mitchell Air
Force Base. The winner then
will play the Northern District
champion for the Northeast Con-
ference title at Sampson, N. Y,
September Ia. The Affair
Force championship will be de-
cided September 9-14 at Eglin
Airforce Base in Florida.
But this isn't bothering the
Rockets now. They are con-
cerned with that big opening
game with Boiling.

Unhappily in the spotlight of
the Santini Open, which pitted
So expert duckpin bowlers, was
the fellow who finished fifth
while Leo Kesler of Newport
News. Va, carried home the $500
top prize.
Johnny Parke, winner Of many
tournaments. was the victim of
a form reversal SO singular that
it will be remembered, perhaps
long after the winners name is
forgotten.
In the first three games of
the six-game contest last night
at the Greenway Bowl, Parke to-
tailed 489. one OF the highest
scores for such a stretch ever
rolled in a major Washington
tournament. 1t was an average
of 1853. including games of LA.
1853 and 1872.
Then he rolled 80, 100 and lit.
a sum Of 315, which was one of
the lowest scores for a compare
BILE stretch in the 11-year history
of the Santini. His six-game to-
tai of 804 represented an average
of 134.
Might Have Been Weary.
Parke offered no excuse for his
tumble. but he might have. Be-
fore competing at the GreenWay
he rolled six games in the Ana
costa Spillway Handicap and
hustled from one plant to the
other. It was against his wishes.
Friends talked him into the San
TIM.
At the Greenway, Parke's game
began to crack during his hottest
period. This was in the 1872
game, in which he missed two
Single-pin breaks. After that his
control slipped palpably.
Kesler shot 846. an average of
141 He was four pins better
than Paul Jarman, who was
thwarted by one weak box. In
