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

Beem. Beem, a 164 league aver

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.

The Pistons were forced to

Irom the Olympia because of an

However, the Pistons are more
familiar with the 9.000 seat Mem

some of this to the fact that it
