SENIOR CITIZENS BOWLING NEWS Again, this week senior bowlers were out in goodly numbers, with 34 participants and several spectators. Several bowlers improved their averages, while others "improved” their handicaps! For the ladies the competition was really close. In the high scratch game, Alice Dipert's 164 just topped Virginia Spillman's 162, which, in turn, topped Mildred McKesson’s 160 game. Just a 4 pin spread! Spillman’s 232 high handicap game beat Dipert's 228 and Marge Buswell's 227 totals, a 5 pin spread! McKesson’s 441 was well above Norine Divine's 426 high series total. Spillman s 410 total was third. Each week there are new "challengers" among the ladies for the top three spots! The gents’ competition was not quite as close, but never the less, made the afternoon interesting! High scratch game was Barney H tester’s 223, with Roman Brehm's 201 and Marion Anderson's 190 distant 2nd and 3rd placements. High handicap game was Heister's 266, followed bv
Brehm’s 237 and Anderson’s 226 games. High series total was Brehm’s 531. Harold Schweder was 2nd with 496 and Mel Divine and Heister both posted 488 totals. Not bad competition for such a young "older" group! With less than two months of the season left, the seniors are really "fine tuning" their game. Come out and watch or bowl with them. There’s always a spot for just one more, you!
