Washington Man Hits 299 Came
SEATTLE W) A bowler who
missed a perfect game by a sin
gle pin turned in the day s best
performance at the 51st American
Bowling Congress tournament
Monday.
Dale Carter, 27-year-old roofer
from Bremerton, Wash., rolled a
299, missing the payoff score on
his 12th frame when the No 7 pin
wobbled and wavered, then righted
itself.
The 299 game, the first of this
tournament and the first minus
one effort since the 1951 ABC at
St. Paul, Minn., is the 15th in the
51-year history of the World Series
of bowlinz.
The only perfect game of this
meet, and ttie 13th in an ABC
tournament, was rolled by Tony
Sparando of Rego Park, N. Y.,
on March 31.
Carter followed his 299 with a 20
and hit 171 in the third game for
a 675 total, two pins short of a
berth in the singles top ten.
While the final total kept him out
of the top ten, the 299 game
elected him to an elite circle. He
is the 28th man in the 52 years
of ABC tournament bowling to roll
a 299 or 300 game. And that takes
in more than 1,780,000 games.

COLD SCIENTIFIC explanations
notwithstanding, to me a rainbow
always has been and always will
be a magnificent miracle. Some
how each arch recalls my boyhood
on the vast Canadian Prairie when
wondered:
Where do sH the bright colors
come from? How many raindrops
make up a bow? And way are me
colors ranging from violet to red,
each with its own speed, but
mostly tiey travel tozethcr.
friendly like, until broken up by a
transparent glass prism or a rain
drop at which time they bend and
separate and each takes up its
own speed, the longer waves, like
red, traveling taster ana ine snort
er rays, like violet, traveling slow
er.
As the rays enter each of the
countless tiny raindrop prisms
the total effect making them a
prism of giant proportions the
sun's rays are bent and then as
they strike the far inner surface
of each raindrop they are turned
back and bent again as they
emerge, meanwhile taking on their
own particular speeds and colors
and in very definite order from
red on the outside through orange.
yellow, green blue, indigo and to
vioiet.
For you to see a rainbow, tticn,
the sun must be shining directly
behind you while ahead the rain
is still falling.
Frequently the colors wild over
lap and blend due to the variations
of the size of raindrops so it is
i seldom that the observer can see
more tnan lour or live colors
clearly. But with a recently per
fected filter, 4,000 hues have been
detected in a seven-banded rain
bow including 800 shades of green.
IF THE RAIN ahead is heavy,
the huge arc may span the sky
and it is circular because the rain
drops being spherical give off their
reflections in all directions. In
deed, if it were not for the earth's
cutoff, the reflections would pro
duce a visible circle each time
Whatever the height of the rain
bow s arch, it is due to tne sun s
elevation. It is always possible to
draw a straight invisible line from
the sun to the observer and pro
ject this on to the center of the
rainoow s arc. mis is unmuiug.
Hence, the higher the sun above
the horiion the smaller the arc.
And should the sun's altitude be
too nreat no rainbow would be vis
ible at all. This is why the arch
it always highest, in fact, semi
circular, at either sunset or sun
rise. But at any time, should the
observer climb to a higb elevation,
as in an airplane, he could see the
whole wonaenul rainnow circle.
As can be surmised, it takes
countless raindrops to make up
each rainbow. Each drop's effect
is extremely transitory. As a re
sult, the rainbow is constantly
changing, changing a thousand
Umes each second.
To make matters even more
conroiex. a whole or a cart of an
other concentric bow may be vis
ible at times because there may
be two reflections instead of one
within the raindrops. Such a sup
plementary bow, with the r e a
band on the inside edge and the
violet on the outside, snows up
clearly only when the raindrops
are small.
And now. should vou have had a
mother who unfailingly took you
outdoors when a child to view ev
ery rainbow, then indeed you can
count yourself singularly blessed.
As I do.

NEW YORK I - The major
leagues today opened what prom
ises to be one of the most interest
ing baseball seasons in many
years.
Rarely has a campaign started
with so many vital question wait
ing to be answered. The latest and
perhaps the most important is:
How much will Enos Slaughter
help the New York Yankees?
Did the five-time pennant win
ning Yankees insure another flag
when they acquired the 38-year-old
Slaughter from the St. Louis
Cardinals on the eve of the pen
nant race? Or did they blow their
chance when they sold star pitcher
Vic Raschi to the Cardinals six
weeks earlier?
Tight Race
The answer may be a long time
coming. The prospects are for
close races in both leagues. All
last years runner-ups appear
strengthened and eager to. take a
crack at the defending champions.
For the first time in years all
16 clubs started the campaign on
the same day. Some 215,000 fans
were expected to see the eight in

in line to see action, but Mickey

Duane PiUette or Don Larsen on
the mound. A crowd of 30,000 was
slated to see veteran right-hand

pitch for the Tigers.
Good Duel
A good pitching duel was in

Wynn of Cleveland and Billy
Pierce of the White Sox were to

The National League's largest
crowd some 35,000 figured to be

Dodger-Giant feud at the Polo
Grounds. Sal Maglie, who has
beaten the Dodgers 18 times In 24
decisions, was ready to test his

The Dodgers, except for Man

same lineup that appeared in the
series last October and the Giants

this battle of right-hander, with
veteran Bud Podbielan going for
the Rcdlegs against sophomore
Bob Buhl. Maning hit managerial

Pirates Revamped
A revamped Pittsburgh team,
which opened at home for the first
time since 1893, was set to face
Philadelphia's ace Robin Roberts
with a lineup composed of such
hard-bitten veterans as Walker
Cooper and Sid Gordon and fuzzy
faced youngsters as Curt Roberts
and Gail Allie. Bob Friend who
pitched sensationally in exhibition
games, was the Pirates' nominee.
Some 20,000 were expected to be

Rookie Wally Moon was sched

Grammas as shortstop and Tom
Alston at first base as the Cardi

There is something about
Olympia Beer that makes my neighbor
and me more neighborly... on the hot
afternoons when we mow our lawns or
trim the hedge, or wash our cars; Our
gardening methods are different. He likes rockeries. I like
- terraces. He prefers asters. I grow roses. But, on one
thing we both agree. We both prefer Olympia to any other
' beer. I suppose there's a reason for it. They say it's the
artesian water used in brewing. Whatever it is, we like it
:..and look forward to meeting on warm afternoons
to that refreshing moment when we enjoy our bottle of beer
together and say, "Olympia makes good neighbors."
