Every team experienced its good nights and its bad — and the "stock market" slips twixt cup and lip kept suspense and hope at high pitch. It doesn't take too much to . become a first-rate bowler—all that is necessary is a sharp eye, a light foot, a firm grip, a smooth delivery, a precision sense of timing, and rhythmic co-ordination of body movement —and luck, There was never any lack of vociferous enthusiasm when the women were bowling, although there were. ,times when. it was so quiet you could hear a bomb drop if you listened hard enough. No one found it diffidult to bowl against this backdrop of incess- ant chatter; roof -raising shrieks of ecstasy from the benches when someone had made her seventh strike in a row, or even floor -sagging groans when a "dead -on" ball cannoneddown the alley, hell bent for wood, and sent everything flying—in- cluding the pin boy—but left the four -pin resolutely upright. No, the, greatest strain on a bowler was when the . news had spread like wildfire that she'd just made seven strikes in a row and was now trying to make her eighth. Twenty-four simul- taneous intakes of suspense -held breath would almost deplete the alleys of oxygen.

But I when 24 lungs full of carbon dioxide were released, every- thing returned to normal. Bowling is good, wholesome fun—but since all things 'must come to an end, it is only fit- ting thatthe end be a good one. And' it was. At the annual howling banquet held Tuesday, 27 howlers grate- fully accepted their hard-earned trophies, Eight were awarded cheerfully coloured and highly absorbent crying towels, while all 96 members (through the un- canny management of funds, limitless tact, and in h e .r en t thoughtfulness of Lenore Harvey, bowling convenor) received bowl- ing pins to commemorate a memorable year. To the secretary, Ruth Cal - berry., who spent most of the year enveloped in a haze of figures, averages and handicaps, and to Lenore Harvey, who kept the whole 96 of us running smoothly on a true course, Mrs. Lois Walker, the WA president, extended warm thanks and mo- dest but well -meant tokens of the league's appreciation. Following dinner, the women retired to the Social. Centre, where amid intermissionsing- songs, led by the crystal vocal- izing of Nan .Dodd, side-splitting skits put on by Mac's Maraud- ers and Susie's Spitfires, and rounds of bingo, the atmosphere was anything but "retiring", The skits were hilarious. Sand- ra Thoburn's impersonations of Ed Sullivan and Frankie Lane brought the house down. Dress- ed in masculine attire, her normally softly curved shoulders buried under six inches of pad - cling, and her distinctive crop of softly curled crowning glory hid- den under a tight hairnet. the histrionic talent brought out by the sartorial transformation was just short of incredible. The second skit, put on by Susie's Spitfires, was a suitably costumed vocal entitled "We Are The Giris of the PMQ's." This custom-tailored ditty of six stanzas was a masterpiece of accurate summing up and audi- ence identification: "We are the girls of the PMQ's, To cook does not give us the blues. We spend our mornings with our friends With cups in hand, discuss food trends, Our perfect menu never fails For when that mid-day siren wails Home we dash, like perfect wives, And when we've put out forks and knives We open up that good old can (Aylmer, of course) Of soup or beans for our old man!"
