Corbett photo. Hamilton in March for the third ti e. Mr, Bennewies is the top Bennewi top zone bowler, after bowler in, the Bluewater Zone. and has an average of 260 this A Seaforth bowler will soon be pitted against the best bowlers in the province, and possibly the best in the country. Murray Bennewies, of RR 1 Seaforth, will be going to Hamilton on March 22 to 25 to compete in the Five Pin Provincial Bowling Championship, Mr. Bennewies is the top bowler in the Bluewater Zone this year. He bowls once per week in Seaforth's St. James League, and has an average of 260, "I've found my game. I feel confident every time I throw the ball," says Mr. Bennewies. Ten bowlers from the Bluewater Zone I which includes Huron County and municipalities from other counties I are selected each year to go to the provincial tournament, and for the past three years • Mr. Bennewies has been one of them. This is the first year he has won the zone, but last year he was second and the year prior to that he was seventh. Mr, Bennewies . started hanging out in bowline alleys when he was 10 -years -old, Those were the days before automatic pin setters, and he got a job setting pins. He spent the money be earned setting pins get- ting time on the lanes, and 20 years later he is a professional calibre bowler. Murray is now 30 -years -old, and for the past 10 years has averaged a bowling score of around 240. Mr. Bennewies is qualified to turn profes- sional, and he hopes to someday. There is a lot of time and -financing involved in profes- sional bowling, and Mr. Bennewies says it is hard to make a living as a bowler in Canada because prizes^are not large enough. For these reasons he's not making.any changes in the next four or five years, but says he eventually would like to go pro. Mr. Bennewies has never bowled a perfect game of 450, but he has had 418, and .has been within one wobbly comer pin of a perfect score. He has been over the 400 mark seven times, which is a° feat in itself. and his highest triple score is 996. He's . shooting for 1,000. What is the secret to this bowling success title "Follow through, that's the whole secret," he says. "Reach out to the pins." Mr. Bennewies will be reaching out in Hamilton against 71 other very competitive bowlers. They will all bowl four games, then the top half of the bowlers are taken for four more games, and the rest are eliminated. After the second four games, the top five bowlers are chosen from the remaining 36, then the last five bowl off until a provincial champion remains. The provincial sham- - pionthen moves on to the ' national chaflipionships Mr. Bennewies is largely self taught, and he does not bowl several times per week like some of the .bowlers•he will be competing against. He will also have to get used to str- ingless bowling pins. unlike the ones he is accustomed to. The ping without strings fly differently, but he says he has had' some ex- perience bowling with them, and 'hopes they will fall his way in Hamilton. "There's a lot of good bowlers out there." he says. -I just hope to make the top hall." Churches invited to share in Foodgrains donation' As Egmondville United Church was donating 1,000 bushels of corn for hunger relief in Mali last March. they dreamed of the day when this effort would be a com- munity and not just a congregational one. They are taking the first step towards mak- ing that dream a reality by inviting, other congregations as well as any interested in- dividuals to a planning meeting Thursday. January 19 at 8:30 p.m. This year, the corn donation will again be made through the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. a partnership effort between nine denominations. CFB food aid is used in two key ways.

People are paid a dai- ly ration of food for work on rehabilitation projects such as the building of dams and roads, reforestation, etc. To ship the same amount as last year will require even more fundg' due to higher prices. However, if several congregations work together; even the higher prices shouldn't impede the sending of a substan- tial shipment. All donations are matched 3:1 by the Canadian International Development Agency meaning that each 1,000 bushels sent generates 4,000 bushels of food aid. The CFB- prides itselfon the careful accounting for its shipments. At every turn, this project 'seeks to fulfill its motto and to be "A Christian Response to Hunger".

Our apologies to Mrs. Coombs for the error, and. best'of luck with the 1989 campaign.
