/ IN LOUISVILLE W F By Bob Johnson

r Doug Myers arrived a year early. Myers, who makes his home in the southern California community of El Toro, won the 1979 edition of one of bowling’s most prestigious tournaments, the American Bowling Congress Masters. It was Myers' first major tournament win. For his effort, Myers received $7,600, a pretty decent day's take in anyone's book. But if Myers had waited just one year, he would have earned more than three times that much. In 1980, the Masters' prize fund will jump to over SIOO,OOO, putting it on a par with most Professional Bowlers Association winter tournaments. And first place will be worth $25,000. Only the Firestone Tournament of Champions, the BPAA U.S. Open, Showboat Invitational, and Brunswick World Open will carry bigger total purses, and only the Firestone will feature a bigger first prize. The Masters Tournament, set for late May, will see 480 bowlers vying for 55 final spots. The defending champion, Myers, is automatically seeded into the finals. The remaining eight finals spots will be filled by state tournament champions, who will compete in their own qualifying play. Finalists compete in double-elimination, match play, until a champion is crowned. What are Myers' chances of a repeat win? If history is any indication, pretty slim. In the 29-year history of the Masters, only Dick Hoover (1956-57) and Billy Welu (1964-65) have managed to win back-to-back titles. BOWLING BRIEFS: A pro-am tournament has been scheduled in conjunction with the 1980 Masters in Louisville, which will open the ABC tournament lanes to women for the first time in many years... The fund-raising campaign for the new National Bowling Hall of Fame and Museum continues across the country. Individuals, local and state associations, bowling centers, and companies have all contributed large sums thus far to help in the building of what has become known as “America's great, new sports shrine.” Among state associations, California is the leader to date, with contributions totaling over $17,000.., Marshall Hollman’s victory in the Brunswick World Open pushes him over the SIOO,OOO mark for the year. His 1979 earnings total $107,255, making him only the third player in professional bowling to hit that mark. Mark Roth and Earl Anthony both topped the six figures in previous years...

FOOTBALL * * * Bv Pete Fritchie WASHINGTON. D. C. - Favorites in the Major Bowls are as follows: In the Gator matchup of Michigan and North Carolina, the Wolverines must be the choice by at least a touchdown (Dec. 29). Rose Bowl-Southern Cal has to be the favorite on the basis of seasonal play but this year Ohio State is a surprising power, not likely to go down easily. In some ways the Buckeyes are more

potent offensively than former Woody Hayes-coached teams. Sugar Bowl-Alabama has the nod over Arkansas in another good paring, but the Razorbacks could dethrone Bear Bryant's undefeated national champs. The Razorbacks might have played a tougher schedule. Orange Bowl-Oklahoma has the nod over Florida State in this one. because Florida State’s passing may

not be up to the combined running and passing game <f the Sooners. This should be a high scoring battle. Cotton Bowl--This go between Houston and Nebraska could be the best game of the bowl season. Houston shouldn't have lost in the last seconds in the previous Cotton Bowl, their fans think, but beating Nebraska could be a very tough order. Houston by the slimmest of margins.
