Mah-VaI BowIers Are
Turning Out In Droves

Youngstown, Ohio - Our
Mahoning Valley League has
got off thus far with hundred
percent attendances. There
have been no blinds in the
first five weeks of play.
At the most recent get-to-
gether, Spaks Cafe, taking
three from the Koker Bakers,
moved into first place sport
ing to those below them a re-
cord of 10 wins and 5 losses.
John Spak, 1888 and Ann
Chockey, 167-463 were the
top notchers for the winners,
while Chuck Koker, 164-446
and young Flask, one of our
junior keglers with 151-442
were best among the losing
Kokers.
Wally Accountants won
two from the Prevec Tanners
to go into second place, while
the Pribek Railroaders taking
a pair from the Matune In
spectors were sparked by
Fran Kelesh's 180-525 set and
by Chester Hlasta with 172-
491. Ed Banko's 203 was the
best single game effort among
the Pribeks. John Matune's
19S-5O9 card and Joe Vuko-
vich's 197-547 could salvage
but one game for the losers.
Bapko's Garden edged the
Yancar Tavernites in busi-
nessmen's duel with Barb Mi
kovich with 165-42O, Emery
Horvatich, 164-414 and Tom
Balog, 177-489 being the
brighter figures among the
winners. Best for the losing
team were John Yancar, 1856
SAT and Fran Rogan with 159-
4O3.

Detroit, Mich. - There was
a seesaw battle between the
Which Way and the Idjits
Five, with each team taking
two points at the October 21
rolling of the Detroit Mixed
League.
Which Way won the first
game, Idjits won the second,
Which Way the third and
then the Idjits taking over
total pins by a one-pin mar
gin. Lillian Bunjevac of the
Idjits rolled a 214 game,
which is now high for the
S e a son, taking precedence
over a 200 score posted ear
lier by Ginny Koss.
Lillian's fellow teammate,
Carl Trontl, helped the cause
with a 1913. Which Ways win
nings were largely due to a
494 series rolled by Louis Ka-
sikich, which was 101 pins
over his average. Ginny Koss
bowled 175-470.
Because of a $40 series by
Johnnie Kosovec and a 480 set
by Dotty Hecimovich in addi-
ton to a 402 contribution by
Mary Bunjevac, which was Is
pins over her average, the
Five Dots were able to take
three points from the Ole Ty-
mers. John Magiera of the
Ole Tymers rolled 202-542.
Ann Sutherland of the same
team had three games of 115
each.
Ray Filipiak of the Easy
Aces bowled 194-197-575,
which is high for the season,
and was largely responsible
for their taking three points

Joyce was pictured as being

himself as a member of an in
If1uential family.

The Washington detectives

for Joyce'S car-or rather, a

Chicago. They bumped into the

Mental Tests
Ordered forBOy

In the first such case of its
kind to appear before District
Juvenile Court. a 13-year-old
boy charged with homicide today
was referred to District General
Hospital for mental observation.
In other homicide cases in
volving juveniles, police have re-
quested the court to waive it's
jurisdiction to an adult court.
Police did not request a waiver
in this case, however, due to
extenuating circumstances and
because of the boys age.
The boy, who is colored, is
charged in the hammer Staying
June 80 of a 75-year-old colored
neighbor woman. According to
the boys story the woman, Mary
Wilson, of the 1000 block of
Eighth street NV, assaulted
him. The youth told police he
went home, got a hammer, and
returned and struck Mrs. Wilson.
Police said the boy has SUBJ
level mentality and was con-
fused at the time of the incident.
The boys court-appointed at
torneys. julius w. Robertson and
Bruce r. Harrison entered a plea
of not guilty by reason of in
sanity. They altered their plea,
however, after a conference with
Judge Edith H. Cockrill and
pleaded no response.
Their original plea could not
be entertained by Juvenile Court
since the court is not a criminal
court.
If the boy is found to be of
unSound mind. Judge Cockrill
said, he would be referred to the
Mental Health Commission for
possible commitment to st. Eliz-

Stempil Asks Delay
l. William Stempil, Washing
ton attorney who has worked
to arrange a sale of the COM
pany for several years, appeared
on behalf of a 10-share stock
holder and urged that the meet
ing be postponed in hopes some
body would make an all-cash
offer.

that the company has S7.3 mil
lion in cash. He said Mr.. Chalk
is borrowing his down payment
of $96 million. leaving a diff
ference of only S2.3 million.
