Cleveland Nest 55 In
banqup Bowling Season

Cleveland, Ohio 7 h e
Nest SIS Bowling League
brought down the curtain
early in May to a successful
season, some of the fruits of
which were picked up at the
Goth Annual Tenpin Tourna-
ment in Detroit.
Seventeen youngsters went
through 81 grueling weeks
with each session taking place
Saturday before noon at the
Grdina Recreation Alleys on
st. Clair avenue. With but two
each who came from Nest
624 and 62, the bulk of the
membership was from Nest
IS.
The Treys won the champ
ionship and with it the tro-
phies donated by the Home
Office. Their record of 64-32
gave them a commanding lead
several weeks before the sea-
sons close and it speaks or
chids for those others who
nevertheless turned up faith
fully to the last Saturday of
bowling.
Roger Kostika and Peter
Stanic rolled 215 and 214-523
as their best for the season.
Bob Janezic with 625 took the
three game honors, Mike Sim
cich polling a 536. Violet Res
cic with 199-466 turned up
top scorer among the girls,
though not too far behind her
were Mary Lesiak, 168-454
and Georgine Braidic, 379.
The league in the mind OF
the undersigned proved that
it takes year around activity
to place we'll in the national
tournaments and with this
thought we sincerely hope
that our junior league in Gle.
veland will be bigger yet. II
will have to have new recruits
as some of the older Juniors
will be graduating from the
ranks and if we are to defenc
our laurels in Chicago next
year, new blood will be most
! welcome.

Firemen. neiehbors and police
men combined their efforts early
Tuesday morning tot help save
several tenants. including chill
dren from a fire that sent II
families into the street.
Despite the heroic efforts of

Most seriously injured was Mrs.
Joan Thomas. Is, mother of five,
who injured her right hip in
escaping.

Thomas, 81. tenants, were also
treated for injuries.
Firemen Otto Wandrie and Ii.
wilkins were hospitalized for
smoe inhalation and cuts. Will

lowing first aid treatment.

by four year old boy, who was
attempting to. put them into a
stove on the first floor.
Burning papers repeatedly fell
10 the floor, setting the rug afire,
which spread to other parts of
