Smart led all rcbounders with 16.2 per game, while Gambee gathered in an average of almost IE 14.9 per game. Gombec's three-year total point output was IMS pounls, breaking the old league record of 835 set by Bob Houbregs of Washington. However, Haubrcgs retained his record for a single season of 400, sol in 19.)3.

SORETHUMB The 2691 score rolled by 'the Lucky Lanes team in the Oregon State Woman s Bowling Assn. tour nament was just' 22 pins behind the winning first place score in the final standings as the tourna ment closed last Sunday. . It is safe to assume, I believe. that the Lucky Lanes team had less handicap than any of the four teams that finished ahead of It in the standings and probably had less handicap than all but maybe two or three teams that competed If the scores had been determined on a scratch basis instead of handi cap then Klamath Falls might have had a winner in Class A for the second year in a row. Last year's team champion, Luc ca Lounge, finished with a com mendable 2663 to take seventh place. Audrey Herrick's 599 ended up in eleventh in Class A singles and LaRayne Harris took seventh in Class A all-events with her lGOOJ Next year's tournament for the women will be held In Woodburn and. the scoring will return to a scratch basis. I'm sure glad to learn that the handicap was dropped. The state tournaments are held, after all, to determine a true slate champion. Handicap ping is the system devised to put lower average bowlers on a par with the better bowlers, and I ni in favor of it in tournaments do signed to build interest in bowl ing and to distribute the winnings among bowlers of varying degrees of ability. Let s hope that they always keep our state champion TIME OUT 'You may quote me! The rumor I'm feedln' the boys pep pllli Is without foundation!"

Dale Welch nabbed the hon ors for high game rolling nine strikes in a row for his 275. IMPROVING YOUR BOWLING: Gino Rosterolla has the following to say on spot and pin bowling. I spot bowl on my first ball delivery. Spot bowling to those un familiar with the term means that the bowler picks out a spot on the alley and then tries to roll his ball over that spot, never taking his eye off the spot until the delivery is completed: In picking a spot the bowler must of course predetermine the line which his ball will travel if he crosses over the spot and make sure the angle at which the ball strikes the pins is correct. I find that by spot 'bowling on my first ball I can better control the speed of my ball, Looking down at the spot on the alley makes me more aware of the speed of my approach. In pin bowling the bowler looks at the pins instead of a spot on the alley. I pin bowl my second or spare shot because I find that it give me greater accuracy and the relative speed of the ball is of little importance. BC Lions Get Husky VANCOUVER. B. C.

(UP)-Being evicted from your home court may seem like an insurmountable break, especially in playoff competition but the Detroit Pistons were right at home when they played the Cincinnati Royals Saturday aft ernoon in the University of Detroit .Memorial Building. The Pistons were forced to move their National Basketball Association Western Division playoff contest with the Royals Irom the Olympia because of an ice show. However, the Pistons are more familiar with the 9.000 seat Mem orial Building since they used it as their practice court all season because of the high cost ol lay ing down and taking up the basketball court on Olympia ice after Detroit Red Wing practices. And, the Pistons and NBAs greatest scorer, George Yardlcy, perform better on road courts than at Olympia. Yardley credits some of this to the fact that it is colder, because of the ice be low the court, in Hie Olympia than other stadiums and it takes him longer to warm up.
