Twenty-Two Teams To Bowl In Men s League Twenty-two teams—the largest number in the history of Exeter Men’s Bowling Lanes—joined Ex­ eter Men’s Bowling Association this year.' Actually, two records are brok­ en for, besides the six additional teams, each team will be allowed eight players instead of the usual seven. Approximately 175 bowl­ ers are active in the organization this season. Teams are divided into two groups—a 10-team division and a 12-team division. The smaller group bowls Monday jjights, the larger group Friday nights. In the Monday night division are the Big Six, Blowers, Hay Seeds, Keglers, Pinpoppers, ers, Rural Rollers, Spare Spares and Windmills. , The Applejacks, Grand Butchers, Grease Monkeys, ers, Long Shots, Maroons, Mess Mates, Short Circuits, Strikes, Tradesmen and Whizz Bangs will bowl Friday nights. Bowling interest in the district has fluctuated from year to year since the construction of the pres­ ent six-lane building in 1948. Only six teams bowled in league competition in 1948, 18 in 1949, 12 in 1950 and in 1951, and 16 in 1952. Remnants of the six original teams—Hot.Shots, Whizz Bangs, Pinpoppers, Butchers, Cellar Rats and Big Six—are still bowling in the league. Mr. and Mrs. Rene Francois operate the lanes. Competition started on Monday night. Pinpoppers 5, Ringers 2 • Bob Nicol led the Pinpoppers to a 5-2 victory over the Ringers with 646 (276).

At Wednesday night’s meeting, Septembei- 30, there was ohly^a scattering of interested bowlers. Dick Jermyn was in. charge in Swanee Snell’s absence. Twenty-one teams had regis­ tered. Some teams were in favor of playing one round; most were in favor of splitting into two divi­ sions and playing two rounds. In consideration of the large entry, it was decided to split, into two groups (nobody wanted to -be in twenty-first place) and to make schedule-drawing easier the teams were divided according to a Monday or Friday night prefer­ ence. The schedule was drawn up by Dick Jermyn, Swanee Snell and yours truly last Thursday night. Dick managed to draft another team on Thursday morning, the Grease Monkeys, making twenty- two teams in 'all. Twenty-two divided in half made 11 teams in each division. It was Impossible to make a schedule with, an "odd” number so 10- and 12-team divisions were made. To make a double round in each group finish at approximate­ ly the same date, it was neces­ sary to have the smaller group bowl on Monday. The 10-team division will not bowl on Thanks­ giving Day nor the week before Christmas to give the larger group a chance to "catch up”. The 12-team division Will double up during the second round by each team bowling twice in one Week'—Monday and Friday. This only happens once to each team and, as you can see, it was un­ avoidable. The 10-team group finishes the schedule February 22; the 12- team group finishes March 1. The top four teams in each division Will playoff in their own group, and the two winners will meet for the championship. Everything Was fine until Mon­ day morning when the Keglers called up ahd said they could not possibly bowl Friday nights. This beggered things up properly , . . The Whizz Bangs saved the situation by "trading" with the Keglers. The Bangs consented to bowl In the Friday night group; the Keglers will bowl Monday nights. Touclie Stan Frayne, Six, jumped Monday night Now we’ve particularly appetizing at best and this time he jumped down our throat without even removing his bowling shoes. Before he gave us dyspepsia, we managed to discover we had grossly exaggerated when we said the Pinpoppers edged the Big Six by a decimal point last week. Actually (and he had it all down in black and white to prove it) the Big Six had averaged 186, beating the ’Poppers by at least five points (not counting deci­ mals). We would like to thank The Little Man for calling this to oui* attention. Plane Victim Former Coach Mr. and Mrs. Whitney Coates were in Lindsay last Thursday attending the funeral of F/O Murray D. Hill who lost his life in a plane crash in the moun- Columbia in one of five all of whom bodies were tains of British February. He was aboard the plane, were killed. Their just recently recovered. F/O Hill was stationed at Cen­ tralia for nearly three years and received his wings there a year ago. While here he coached the girl’s softball team of which Wilma Coates was a member. He became a close friend of the family and a frequent visitor at their home. Full military honors were ac­ corded F/O Hill at the funeral, October 1.
