   I would like to suggest something to my fellow bowlers.  When you see dead wood in the channels, have them removed before you bowl. Did you know that if your ball hits the pin it is then considered dead, and any resulting pin fall does NOT count. Many bowlers throw a hook ball, going to the outside edge of the lane, and hooking sharply to the pocket. If a pin is slightly at an angle, and may not even be noticeable from the approach, the ball could make contact, and be slightly deflected in its course.
    That wraps up the reports for this week. If you are a league secretary, we would love to have your league reports. Drop me an e-mail message to illianabowling@gmail.com
