DOWN TENPIN LANE -
Teams from the Greater WASH
ington Major League at Ros-
Slyn have won the Virginia
State tenpin championship for
a third straight year, due
largely to the judgment OF
Boyce Johnston in selecting
substitutes as captain of two
of the teams.
In 1859, when Rosslyn Bowl
ing Center was shy a man,
Johnston beckoned Ed Giblin
who led the Rosslyns to victory
at Congressional Plaza in both
scratch and handicap divisions
with a series of 658.
Crystal City Restaurant was
the scratch winner last year
at Virginia Beach.
This year Johnston. called on
Jim Lloyd to fill out his North
ern Virginia Bowling News
lineup for the tournament at
Bristol. Lloyd, with a 649 series
emulated Giblin. He was a
standout as Warren Smith
rolled 586, Bob Null $40, John
stoh 555 and Frank Olson 572
Their 1882 total was the best
from scratch and with a 14l
handicap the team crossed 1928
for handicap honorS. The spoils
amounted to 1910.
-
BY autumn, keglers will be
firing at a pin with a neck an
eighth-inch larger in diameter
than the one now in use, but
there will be no effect on
scores. A two-year test by the
American Bowling Congress
proved this.
Happy over the change are
the proprietors. The test re-
vealed that the alteration will
add Is per cent to the life OF
the stick. Many pins are lost
now through cracks in the
neck.
Matt Bennie. his wife Bea
and their comely young daugh-
ter, Sharon, are off for a week
in Milwaukee, the tenpin
capital. For Mrs. Bennie and
Sharon it will be a vacation
Fur Matt, among other activi-
ties, will be sessions of the ABC

The most enthusiastic keg-
lers in the area at this time,
we believe, are those in the
Tenpin Coliseum Women's Sin
giles League, which has AZ
members divided into three
classes and operates under the
Petersen point system.
Some of the contestants are
amazingly ahead of their regu-
