Mrs. Gorka Replaced
Mrs. Gorka will be replaced tomorrow night by Eva Williamson, the Carmel high school gymnastic teacher, who has been turning in some fancy scoring at the Broad Ripple alleys. She carries an average of 160 and is considered one of the city’s coming keglerettes. Genie Drexler and Dorothy Berkopes, defending doubles champions; Bernis Thorpe, 1945 singles champ,’ and Laura Alexander, allevents winner last year, are scheduled for later appearances. Indianapolis will have a large delegation of pinmen vieing for slices of the $52,000 prize melon offered in the 34th annual Petersen Classic in Chicago. An entry of 38 local entrants are taking their fling in the eightgame scratch meet today while four additional participants are scheduled to try their luck tomorrow.
Topnotchers in Action
With many of the city's topnotchers in action, there is a possibility that some may return with totals that will be among the payoff positions when the 2080 entrants have concluded their firing. Scoring in last night's league sessions failed to match the fast pace set in previous loop activities |p this week, but the top scorers represented the two best totals rolled in the Commonwealth league at the Pennsylvania this season. Paul Briles had 191, 208, 257-856 for Beard's Brake Service, while Ray McGill posted 189, 236, 225-650 for Jack & Wally's Tavern. The Saturday schedule in the women's tourney follows: TEAM EVENT
