BOWLING

c. Edward Goldberg. rated
with the most progressive bowl
ing proprietors in the land, is
conducting curious experiment
at the Silver Spring Bowling
Center. one of three he operates.
Goldberg wants to find out. for
his own satisfaction if nothing
else, what would be the effect OF
increasing the size of the duck
pin. He acquired two sets of over
sized pins. specially made for
him. They measure one inch
more in diameter through the
belly than the standard stick,
which is Az inches thick, and
weigh about the same as a ten
pin. which is 21a pounds
The limit weight of regula-
ton duckpin ball is 3 pounds IL
ounces.
From watching Jim Carroll,
one of the better bowlers here
about, shoot against the pot
bellied pins. one got the impress
sion they produce more spare
breaks than regulation sticks, but
not as many strikes. and more
weird splits than might be ex-
pected.
An almost full headpin hit is
required for a healthy strike.
On inside hits against three or
four pins in a row invariably the
end stick remains up, with the
ball caroming of the second pin.
It's difficult to pick a two-pinner.
In his experimental game, Car
roll rolled only two balls to the
frame and shot 1874. with four
spares and a strike. He's a 1922
average bowler, but thinks he
could turn out sets of 400 or
better consistently against the
king sized ducks.

after the game. THE pattern

Joe thought the Eagles were
on par with the Giants in the
second half but came up with a
couple of key errors" that de-
clded the issue. One of these, of
course, was penalty for rough
ing the kicker, Don Chandler,
after holding the New Workers
for downs on the 7-yard line.
That could have been the games
turning point.

to the regular sticks.
Gait Davis, one-time noted
dncknin operator at Rosslyn and
now director of the Arlington
Farms tenpin plant. long has
commended that the duckpin
should be increased in size. 1T
should have been DONE" he says,
before the automatic pinsetter
was patterned for the current
pin" He contends that many
duckpinners become discouraged,
and some quit. because of ac-
curate hits that get poor re-
suits. whereas a larger pin not
only would tend to correct this,
but engender more general en-
joyment of the sport.

The dimensions of the present
duckpin and ball are the result
OF long study and hard work by
such leaders as the late George
ISemann, first executive Sec
rotary of the National Duckpin
Congress. and his successor
Arville Ebersole. A lot of money
as well as a variety of head
aches went into the standard
izing of duckpin equipment. AT
one time it was necessary to
differentiate between averages
in New England and those else
where in formulating the ma
tional ratings.
There seems to be no likeli-
hood that the duckpin con-
gresS would countenance any
serious change in the game.
Some 40 years ago. when the
Inflated Atlantic Coast Bowling
Association operated, the size

featherweight, who has been
working his way up for the last
year or SO, will fight here Friday
night. January i, at Capitol
Arena.
Promoter Goldie Ahearn will
put on the bout that matches
Chestnut for 10 rounds against
Isidro Martinez of Panama.
Chestnut already has fought
in Washington twice. losing a
split decision to Cherif Hanna
last May and then coming back
to knock out Carmelo Costa in
June.
Both were crowd pleasing
battles. particularly the first one
in which the polished Hanna had
all he could do to weather Chest
nuts slugging. There were sug-
gestions that Chestnut had been
overmatched against the high
ranking Hanna in that one, but
Chestnut quoted such talk by the
way he almost upset the French
man.
Coming back here a month
later against Costa, Chestnut
left no doubt from the start he
wasn't going to leave it to the
judges. He was swinging hard
all the way, putting down Costa
in the first round and giving him
a general beating the rest of the
time until the referee stopped
the fight in the eighth.
Ike currently is ranged sixth
on the National Boxing Associa-
ton list among contenders for
Sandy Saddler's featherweight
title. the highest he ever has
been. He was up to eighth place
after his victory over Costa. but
dropped out when he lost to the

gained high place. however. by

With BILL LEETcH

Virginia waters, it will be legal
ito keep striped bass Of any top
size.
We wish Maryland's coming
legislative Assembly would pass
Ia similar law. The taking of
rockfish with rod and reel Of no
top limit is now permitted in
Maryland's non-tidal waters. For
instance an angler with rod and
reel can stand on the bank of
the Susqiehanna River at a GER
tain point, which by law marks
the demarkation point between
tidal and non-tidal waters, or he
can anchor his boat on this i'm
aginary line set by law. If he
fishes upstream with rod and
reel there is no top limit to the
size Of the rockfiSh he can catch.
However, If he fishes downstream
he cannot catch and keep a
rockfish Of more than Is pounds.
Ridiculous, isn't it?
What this new law in Virginia
is going to open up in the Po-
tomac River remains to be seen.
Trouble over oysters has been
enough up to the present, but
this will add new element in
the hassle between the two
States. just as Virginia's law
permitting year-around bass
fishing east of the Blue Ridge
has brought about trouble in
fresh-water sections of the Po-
tomac where bass of either large
mouth or Smallmouth variety
abound.
Biologists now feel that striped
bass of medium size are better
brood fish than the largest of the
species. If sportsmen were al
lowed to catch striped bass in all
Maryland waters with no top
limit as to size, provided they
were taken on rod and reel,
knowing human nature as we
do, we are sure hundreds If not
thousands of these medium
sized rock would be saved to
spawn. If fellow has chance
at 50-pounder. why even con-
slider a 20-pounder, which really
isn't good eating? Now, with
the 15-pound top limit, sports
anglers are supposed to throw
back all fish over Is pounds.
They do, too-back in the boat,
in most cases. and they get away
with it if they wish to, because
1t is impossible to police this law
with sport fishermen, especially
If they resent this silly limitation.
