Like for instance the Lex ington Oil Co-op lost its "touch" and has lost eight in a row! The leiiows said they were not talk- ng and that they had lost the score sheets, but guess who end ed up with them? ? Padberg Machinery in the gals league creeping up on first place with iour nights iett to bowl and they are right now tied for second with Sheets. Heard that Pad berg's Queen of comedy, Joyce Espy, will be gone for two weeks, which could throw a kink into their first place aspirations. Girls, just wait 'til after you bowl MCGG before getting a sub! 0 0 0 LAST WEEK the men's March 18 scores were not in because of the early paper, so to get you up to date, here are the re sults. The Co-op lost four to UPHR with Joel Engleman hav ing high game of 195 and also high series of 493. Heppner Elks took all four from Bi-County to end up with the Co-op in second spot. Art Watkins (F.Iks) had high series of 550 and Vern Viall (Elks) high game of 217. For Bi-County, Bob Kilkenny was still top bowler with a 515 series and 207 game. Heard Kenny Turner added a little Softball touch In the 10th frame of the last game! ooo THIS MONDAY the Co-op guys were still singing the "slump- like blues" as they dropped four more to Brick's Supply, which moved them down to third place. The only information thev re vealed was that Dean Hunt had a 508 series! The Elks teams rolled along to take three from league-leading Hi-Ho club to hold clown second place. Three of the five members bowled over 500 with Vern Viall having a 514, Gene Orwick 513, and Vic Groshens, 506. Gene had the high game of 199. Bi-County got into the win column as it split 2-2 with PGG.

Vesta Kilkenny had high series for Turner of 438 and Jean Ann Turner had high game of 167. That was quite a contest as neither team bowled very well. Jo Petytjohn picked up a 4-7-10 split then turned right around to lose two marks And that isn't easy, all you have to do is throw two balls and pick up less than five pins! Karen Cutsforth (Turner) evened things up a little later bv also losing two marks, miraculous bowling!
