Here we go again.
Yet again, another youngster, rolling a 300 game. These guys make it look so
easy. This time, it was former Danville resident, Jim Miller. Now, a resident
of Mahomet, it was his 5th perfect game.
Some of you might have been scratching your
heads the past couple of weeks with how I was reporting the games 50 or more
pins above their averages. Very simple, the 1st number would be their game,
then, the 2nd number in parenthesis would be the number of pins actually over.
A Couple’s No Tap tournament will be held
this coming Saturday at noon, at the Westville Legion Bowling Center. Handicap
is set at 90% of 220. If you have no average, you will be bowling scratch. Cost
is $40 and there is a limit of the 1st 10 couples paid. Contact Doug Oakes at
304-4735.
The Monday Night No Tap League’s Pam Jones
rolled the high game for the week with a 253,
80 pins over her average. Other bowlers achieving 50 or more pins over
were: Shirley Perryman 235 (55), Terry Jones 232 (55), Krystle Evans 229 (64),
Karen Lane 186 (84), and McKenna Smith 160 (55).
The Monday Morning Ladies League in
Westville reports that Mary Seilhymer bowled a 173 (52).

games with the following: Mac McDaniel 193 (50), Joe Elliott 177 (50), Charles
Tiffin 202 (65), and 536 series (125), Dot McDaniel 173 (58), and Cheryl Rhoton
191 (56). Two difficult spare conversions were made. Bub Tiffin with the 2-9
and Houston Key with the 4-7-10.

Fast Lanes in Hoopeston is alerting us that
their Youth League is coming up with some great scores. High scores for this
week were Mercy Linder with a 216 game. Wes Raven had games of 225 and 223,
