The latter were definitely the
underdogs (according to popular
opinion) but, as is usually the
case, pulled the props from
under Stan Frayne’s team. The
Big 'Six won the first game, 1,-
178 to 1,124. From then on,
though, it was all over but the
shouting, as the Rats surged
back to take the next two
games, and thereby eliminate
the Big Six. Jack Cutting turned
in a sparkling performance for
the Cellar Rats with a total
score of 697 (269), while Gord
Cudmore ran second with 609
(252). Don Case with 649 (252)
paced the losers, with Stan
Frayne next with 633 (239).
Shots Kill Off Butchers
On alleys 3 and 4, the battle
of the giants took place, with
the two top-place teams-
Hot Shots and the Butchers—
meeting. In this series, the
Butchers didn’t even have a
look-in, as the Shots put on a
display of power to swamp Dar

Every man on the Hot Shots
averaged over 200 fox* the night

away from the rest of the pack.
The Seedsmen had a bad night
and lost all three games, but
still held on to second place.
On the first two alleys, Legion

absence of two of its players,

nifty three-game total of 717
(261) Reg Taylor also bowled
well with a total of 639 (216).

in one good game of 254, while
Bob Sangster also had one good
score of 214, ,

Bend 1 clashed on alleys 3 and
4, with the resort lads upsetting
the Seedsmen by winning all
three games. As was the case
with the Hensall team, the
