Bowling is casual, which I'm sure appeals to most people in my age group. And it's econom ical, which is particularly im portant if your date happens to be struggling along on a small allowance, or what he has left over after working his way through school. Two or three games, plus a snack, isn't going to put much of a dent in any date's pocket book. Bowling costs about 50 cents a game. Six games, the average bowled by most peo ple in an evening, will cost about $3 and with automatic pinsctters there is no tipping of the pin boy. Most bowling centers can serve you anything from sand wiches to steaks and at fair prices. Not only is a bowling date eco nomical and enjoyable, it can give people a chance to know each other well. If a date shapes up well on the lanes, it's more than likely that he or slie will prove equally attrac tive in other respects. and Oklahoma State and North Carolina deadlocked for 19th.
