E COMMENTS
The Labatt Trophy teams tight
ened up the standing this week,
but the Spares, so far, have
obliterated any competition for
first place.
The Rural Rollers and Whizz
Bangs continue to dominate the
Pittsburg Paints series. The Keg
lers and Ringers came from no
where to claim third place.
Wilmer Wein was added by
the Ringers’to bolster their line
up. Doug Smith bowled for the
first time this year under '
Bang auspices Tuesday
collecting 604 (248).
