Stiff 2nd Half On Tap For Scratch Leagne
Bij Loretta Powell
The Bowling Season is well into the last half of the schedule.
At the beginning of the fourth round of the Tuesday Scratch League, which is the 22nd week, we find Monte's Wolves
in the lead for the first time since the first and second weeks of the schedule. Since then Construction Gang held the lead 7 weeks out of the 22, and the Dan Dailey’s Hoofers stayed on top 12 weeks out of

With the helping influence of Bill himself, the Bill Lundigan's girls team recently pulled up to the second highest girls team spot. Left to right, back row, Shirlee Weismantel, Dona Nicoloff, Bill Lundigan, Liz Thompson. Front row, Wanda Mooney, Anita Connolly.
the 22, which is quite a record. Monte’s Wolves took 3 points from Alfred Newman’s boys, giving the Staff boys 38 points won, a 2-point lead over Construction who has 36 after losing 3 to Jimmy Ruman’s drivers. Johnny’s Jumpups and Walt Jolley’s Jokers are still tied, each with 35 wins, the Jumpups taking 3 from Dan Dailey’s Hoofers, and the Painters taking 3 from Linda Darnell’s boys.
Johnny McCafferty had everybody holding his breath while the strikes piled up nine in a row. However, the tenth ball left 2 pins standing. He picked up the spare, then got another strike which gave him 278, a very good game no matter how it’s figured, and to my knowledge, only equalled by Ray Jone’s high game of 286 in the Thursday league the year before. This gave Johnny’s team 1040 high game, but short 1 pin of high series of 2859 which Johnny’s Jumpups and Jimmy Ruman each have.
In the Thursday Handicap League, Peck’s Polecats, who won the first half and who still held the lead in the second round for a few weeks, have been pushed down a little by Jean Peters’ Quints who now have a 3 point lead over Peck’s Polecats and Richard Conte’s boys, tied for second place.
The Joseph Mankiewicz girls came so close to winning the first half, that they are determined to make it this time. Bill Lundigan’s girls are staying close to their heels, and Mark’s “Even” Stevens right up there too. The Matcliffs (Clifton Webb and Victor Mature) and the Tyrone Power girls are doing much better this half. The Starlets haven’t got started this half, but watch out when they do!
Team #5 has a new name — Maxwell Shane. All the teams are now sponsored.
Some of our boys will bowl in the City Tournament on March 26th. Come and root for them!
