has some reservations about the
ruling. He pointed out that one
school which had the new
mouthpieces this year had just
as many injuries as one which
didn't.
II think that the new helmets

mouth cuts down on most in
juries to the teeth" Pearce
pointed out.
Pearce is a member of the
subcommittee which reports to
the National body on rules in
volving equipment. He said that
the group will meet again be-
fore next year and there is q
possibility that the new rule
will be voided before it affects
the schools.
/ Pearce also told the gather

thinks the District has one Of

use the same angle for
three spares on the left side of
the lane. They are the 7 pin,
the 4 and the Al.
The angle should be from
the right corner because all of
these are extreme left side
spares. The ball should angle
across the lane and into the
pins solidly, as the illustration
shows, for the Al.
When rolling at the At, make
sure your ball hits both pins.
A light hit on the 4 could kick
out and around the 7. I've seen
it happen many times.
So aim for the At pocket.
Always hit as many pins as
possible with the ball.
