Crack Ten Pin Expert Tells Secrets of Popular Winter Indoor Pastime

MUCHPRACTIGE NECESSARY IO MASTER GAI Warns Against Too Much Speed and Advises Bowlers Not to Use Curve Ball. HALF SPEED SUCCESSFUL Many Crack Players Only Use Slow Ball and Are Winners. BY JIMMY SMITH World-Famous Boiler Many people make thè mistake of trylngr to learn thè sport of bowling in one trial. It can’t be done. Bowling, like any other sport, reoulres tlme, patience and a destre to Improve, lf you seek to' master thè art of getting thè plns. I would advise thè novice to start using & straight ball. He can either start It down thè center of thè alley or on thè rlgbt side and let it work into thè plns. Regardless of thè style of delivery used thè most lmportant thing is to hit thè head pin. It is preferable to hit thè head pin full rather than miss lt entirely. ... Hit thè TTo.id Pin Seldom ls a strike mode if thè head pin is missed. but many a strike is made when thè ball hìts thè head pin full, a hit that ls usually regarded as a possible split. Great speed is not necessari* to | success. Some of thè game's greatest bowlers uso a slow ball, while others prefer a half speed. A half-speed ball gives thè plns a chance to work as thè ball cuts through. Control ls thè maln thing. thè most ssentlal asset of any good bowler When one acqutres control he can increate hls speed if he desires. Curve Dall Destructive A hook or curve ball !s generaUy ! consldered thè most destructive de- ; ilvery. If a bowler uses a hook, he should make lt a working hook. Don’t use j speed: not at first. because speed re : ally doèsn’t knock down any more I wood, and kills thè hook because lt j c'.oesn’t glve lt a chance to work. "When throwing a hook take lt easy I and always try to keep thè work- ' ing on thè right side of thè pins. Start thè hook along thè right side of thè alley and get lt working so that lt takes thè curve as lt nears thè pina. In makir.g spares on thè right side of thè alley do not tum your hand at all, slide thè fingerà together In grlpplng thè ball and shoot cross alley at them. If you are rlght-handed move over to thè left side of thè alley and bowl aerosa at thè Nos 3. 6. 8, 9 or 10. If you are left-handed move to thè right aide of thè alley and shoot aerosa.
