Different Hook Methods Used


By Billick and Ward
Here are two additional ways
to roll a hook ball besides the
two methods described earlier:
l. By turning the wrist from
right to left Just as he releases
the ball, as we illustrate, the
bowler can put plenty Of hook
spin on the ball. Be sure you
turn only your wrist-not your
arm, shoulders or hips. George
Billick uses this style very sue
cesSfully and adds a strong fol-
lowthrough.
2. By combining both the
finger lift and the wrist turn,
you can roll a strong hook.
However, this takes delicate
timing, and should not be tried
by the inexperienced bowler.
Walter Ward, the vetera n
Cleveland star. says he uses
this combination "the majority
Of the time. but when lanes are
running fast, I just use the
finger lift"
You'll have to experiment to
discover which method pro-
duces best results for you. Re-
member, control IS all-impor-
tant.

after brief summer vacation per-
iod, it has announced a crash
program" of unification among its
affiliated clubs.
The initial meeting will be Mon
day evening, Sept. 11th at Phyllis
Wheatley House, 800 Aldrich. This
meeting, incidentally will be high
lighted by the appearance of
Freedom Rider Claire O'Connor.
The business meeting will start
at 7:30 pm, and the Freedom
Rider" discussion, which is open
to the public, will start at 8 pm.
With the increased stature being
acquired by the Twin City Council
of Clubs resulting from its pro-
lection into the civic and social
activity, these newspapers have de-
cided to examine closely the Coun-
Gil of Clubs and its newly proposed
unity program.
This, can best be done through
the key personnel of the various
clubs comprising the core of the
organization.
BY direct interview with officers
and committee workers - many of
whom are presidents or officers
of their respective clubs, we will
bring the story.
Expanded Activity Demanded
In way of review, it is found
that the Council of clubs had as
its origination in the need for some
central coordination Of dances and
public affairs being given by many
clubs on the same date.
The organizers soon discovered,
however, that additional activities
and services were necessary to
Justify its existence.
Here is what Willard Jones, one
of the original designers Of the
joint group, and who is presently
considered as something Of an ell
der statesman Of the Council Of
Clubs has to say:
1T was not until we decided to
offer some tangible benefits in
addition to assignment Of public
events and dance dates did enough |
clubs affiliate to make the organ
ization effective.
Our first project was compil-
ing and issuing a complete direc-
tory with names, prices and gen
eral information of the major halls |
available for rental.
This program was directed and
planned by Andrew Clark, Jr., then
president of the Council. This
move, I feel, was the beginning Of
our realization Of the potential for
the group. For 1t became a chal- |
lenge when 1t was discovered sew
eral of the rental facilities were
unavailable" for our groups"
Jones, a representative OF the
Minneapolis Socialities Club, con-
cluded by stating that he believed
the Council OF Clubs is now on the
threshold Of becoming the organ
ization its organizers had visual
lied at the time Of its formation.

Operating with almost mechani-
cal precision, a majority of DEM
ocrats and Republicans under the
leadership of party leaders Mike
Mansfield ID, Mont.) and Dirksen
(R., ILL., killed the efforts Of a
smaller bipartisan coalition to
secure broader legislation. Every
amendment was defeated except
the one backed by the leaders.
Back Extension Only
The one they backed was an ex
tension of the life of the Civil
Rights commission for another two
years. The commission investigates
and reports on violations of civil
rights in voting and other fields.
1t would have expired Nov. 8
under present law.
Southern senators put up token
resistance to this amendment, and
then voted with the majority to
defeat all other proposals. Propon-
ents of more far-reaching amend
ments promised to try again later
in the session, but there was gen
eral agreement that no more civil
rights legislation will be approved
at this session.
The amendment continuing the
Civil Rights commission for two
years was attached to a 766 million
dollar appropriation bill providing
funds for the state and justice de-
partment and the judiciary. This
procedure required a two-thirds
majority to suspend the rules 1t
was provided, II to 81, with 10
votes to spare.
Kill Stronger Bids
Led by Senators Joseph Clark
d., Pa and Jacob Javits (R.,
N.Y., supporters of stronger civil
rights legislation put forward a
number of amendments. Mansfield,
after permitting debate on each
one, then moved to table, cutting
off debate and killing the amend
ments.
The roll call votes were, in order,
56-36, 1912, 50-40, and 47-42 in
favor of tabling. The closest vote
came on Javits' amendment to en-
power the attorney general to
bring school desegregation suits
and other civil rights suits in be-
half of private individuals.
