Help Your Area Recyclling Effort December 13 & 14 We are not asking you for funds as other clubs or organizations might, what we ask is that you contribute recyclables to our cause. Aluminum is the only recyclable that brings in revenue. Newsprint is a cost to us of S.Ol a pound; we bring in an average of 6,000 pounds a month. The plastic and glass neither bring in revenue or disperse it. The dilemma we face is that the amount received for the aluminum does not balance the cost of the newsprint. To continue to offer newsprint as a recyclable to North Liberty we must bring in more aluminum to maintain a balance. I believe this can be done with the support of local families and business. If you drink a soda that comes in an aluminum can (not bi-metal) you can help to fulfill our needs. It only takes 24 aluminum cans to make up a pound, which in return will pay for roughly 30 pounds of newsprint; depending on the current market value of aluminum. The average household will bring in 30 pounds of newsprint a month. We are presently averaging 80 pounds of aluminum a month which does not even cover half the cost of the newsprint. Do not read this as a problem without a solution. We do not want to discourage the volume of recyclables coming in. We strongly feel if our volume of aluminum will increase, the problem will solve itself. We as a community need your support of this worthwhile crusade against needless volumes of trash. Please start recycling today. The next recycling event will be Thursday, December 13, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Friday, December 14, 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Please do not come at any other times. Our area recycling also has a great need of volunteers to man the drop off site. If you and your friends or family would like to participate, please contact Dave by leaving a message at 656-4722. In recycling every penny counts! Thank you for your continured support.

The scores may not have been as high as in some past weeks, but the added exercise was beneficial in reducing some of the added poundage acquired from the consumption of all those good foods that abound at Thanksgiving time! The ladies continued their keen competition by having exceptionally close scores in all cat agones. High scratch game was Jean Burden's 176, topping Merle Bruesch’s 167 and Betty Ogle's 161. Burden's 222 high handicap game just beat Alice Dipert’s 221. Ogle's 213 was third in the cate-

gory. High series total of 445 by Bruesch was just enough to beat Ogle's 439 and Burden's 427 totals. With just a “spare" difference in most categories deciding the contest winner, it is abundently clear the ladies are serious competitors! The gents saw some nice bowling in their group, with the octegenarians furnishing competition for the “younger" 60s group. High scratch game was bowled by Barney Hiester, whose 220 beat Steve Bencze’s 206 and Ray Devault's 197 games. Kiester’s 267 high handicap game topped Robert Spillman's (84 years young) 230 and Bencze’s 224 games. High series total was Eli Sobat's 531, followed by Bencze’s 522 and Kiester’s 516. Each week the winner’ names change, the numbers are different, but the lively competition stays sustained! And they have fun! There were just a couple of open lines available this week, but one of them could have been yours. “Come on down’’ and enjoy an afternoon of sport, exercise, and fun with your friends and neighbors at the Walkerton Shady Lanes (with its bright new canopy) on Wednesday afternoons!
