they conform to all specifications

A. L. Ebersole, executive Sec

be sanctioned by the Congress
and thus all scores rolled on
them will be official.
The lanes, costing approxi-
mately $25.000 and equipped
with automatic pinsetters, occupy
the largest TV studio in the city,
measuring 95 by 40 feet, with
$500 feet Of usable floor area.
New banks Of overhead lighting
equipment have been built to
provide the lanes with a brilliant,
even pattern of light.
Production plans call for three
cameras, one mounted on a plat
form behind the bowlers, an
other midway down the alleys
and the third at positions taken
by the official scorer and an

Talent for the shows is easily
available. with nearly all of the

We may as we'll begin with the 3-and-2 golf
victory scored over Ben Hogan in recent chal-
enge match. To hear the papers tell it you'd have
thought I'd flown to the moon! First of all, they
made entirely too much of the fact that this was
only the second time in my life Id played golf, and
not enough of the fact that was just plain lucky
to have phenomenal strength, coordination and
eyeSight. AS I've told Patsy, sportswriters often
over-dramatize things.
One sports writer even went further overheard,
and claimed played perfect golf" All can say
is that this statement is sheer nonsense. On the
18th green l missed an easy 55-foot putt.
AS for my World War II exploit of sinking the
japanese battleships Mig0Shi and HO0m0ki on
the same night by swimming under water and
attaching explosives to them, won't say didn't

received. But the press had to make some ridicu-
lous exaggerations which still embarraSS me.

have gone on sinking battleshps all night if my
superior officer hadn't insisted that quit. What
rubbish! Another heavy cruiser or two = maybe

fact is that I've seldom been as scared in my life.
Oh, perhaps that time in India when found the

Musical critics are, | suppose, in the main
competent and well-nformed lot, but it does seem
that even the best of them have tendency to go
off half-cocked once in while. This is certainly
what happened when they described the piano

lessons First, they said had taken these lessons
only once week. Actually it was twice week.
Secondly, one critic = shall mercifuIly with
hold his name stated that: ''Never, in the his
tory of the pianoforte, had Chopin and Brahms
been performed SO perfectly" Well, of course,
aesthetic questions of this sort are purely matters
of personal opinion and I'm not prepared to state
dogmatcally that this critic is wrong. On the
other hand Id like to suggest in all friendiness
that if he had ever heard Paderewsk play he might
have qualified his opinion.
That Dempsey Bout
Finally want to correct the oft-repeated story
that, in an informal sparring match, knocked
out Jack Dempsey when he was in his prime,
despite the fact that was wearing glasses and was
outweighed by 100 lbs. This yarn is riddled with
untruths. Nobody but fool would wear glasses
when boxing Dempsey, and whatever else was,
wasn't fool.
Secondly, didn't knock him out. Floored him,
yes, but he got up almost Immediately. Besides,
I'm still convinced that something Jack had eaten
for breakfast had disagreed with him. The next
day it was a different story. We went three
rounds, and Jack had me hanging on at the end.
Well, there we are, and suppose you'll be say
ing all this is nothing but tissue of lies and that
none of it really happened. suppose Hogan and
Dempsey will be saying it too. How right you'll
be! How right Hogan and Dempsey will be too!
