4 PERFECT games in one week. If you
remember, last week we reported that Kevin West had recently rolled his 32nd
perfect game. Well, 3 days after that, on Tuesday nite, January 22nd,
he rolled his 33rd. Derrick Hufford continues to knock ‘em out by
rolling his 6th perfect game at Lincoln Lanes last Thursday evening.
Also bowling a perfect game was Terry Jones in the Monday Nite No-Tappers. Most
impressive however was Scottie Reinken bowling his 4th 300 game, at
Sycamore Lanes in Covington during the Friday Nite league. He actually rolled
20 strikes in a row. Games were 240-300-258with a 228 average. His total series
was 798. I told one of these 3 guys, they need to teach me how to do this. He
said, “you just throw the ball down the lane.” Somehow, I figure there is
really more to it than that.
Sunday will be the last day left in the
city tournament’s singles and double’s events. Squads at 10am and 1pm. Contact Doug Oakes, the tournament director at 217-304-4735
for more information and reservations. Don’t worry, you won’t miss the Big Game
or the half time commercials. It airs at 5:30 central time.
Attention No Tappers!! There will be a Couple’s No Tap Tourney on
February 9th at 7:30pm at Bulans. Price is $30 per couple.
We already mentioned that Jones knocked
out a 300 game for the Monday Nite Church No Tap league which was included in
an 846 series. Sue Strong rolled a 241, which helped her achieve a 693 series.

game, Joe Davis with a 244, Mike Jett, a 242, Karen Hoskins had a 230, and
Richard Morgan topped out with a 212. Morgan also picked up the 5-10 split,
while Finas Glenn carefully slid the 6 pin over to help knock out the 6-7-10.
In the Monday Morning Ladies League in
Westville, Judy Mariage picked up the 2-7-8 and Jo Anne Brooks lassoed the 3-9-10.
Tuesdays are a really busy day for leagues in
the Danville area. At Lincoln Lanes on Tuesday morning, the MS Nail Salon
League reports that Donna Rayhel bowled a 207 for a 586 series. Sue
Strong bowled 214 for a 530 series and picked up a 5 - 10 split, while Connie
Krabbe and Roma Buese were bowling a 179 game each. Gloria Pfeifer bowled a 158.
Also on
Tuesday, slow action last week with the Go Getters, as we have only Bub Tiffin
picking up the 5-10 split. This actually took place on Jan 22nd, but
I will have some high scores next week, guaranteed.
The Thursday afternoon Senior League
reports that John Gebhart rolled a 224, 53 pins over average, while Bill
McDaniel shot a 200 game, 52 over. Ernie Harvey exploded by rolling 69 pins

Allen.Taylor both pick up the 5-10. Linda Engle snuck between the 4-5 pins,
while Dot McDaniel did the same, but on the other side, the 5-6.
One more report from the Friday Evening
Mixed League was that Lindy Henkelman bowled a 224 with a 143 average
for 81 pins over.
We have a good sized report for the Friday
Nite League at Lincoln Lanes, where Rob Pendleton rolled a 257, 72 pins over
average while Terrence Cloyd rolled the same score. Rich McFarland shot a 258
and a 711 series, Jim Thomas a 262, and Jerrad Reed a 279, which helped him
