SPORTopIcs By Frank Mohun MA 3-72M34 GOODYEAR BOWLING1 The Office teamn rolled up a big 3341 total iast week, to capture the cash award donated by Manager George Elliatt. The Win stamnped the white-coîîer bowlers as real money-men, as the Office has callected the boot two eut of the lest tbree seasans. They mlssed out in '58, but received some consolation by grabbing off the league chaxnpionship. In second spot, 188 pins back, pame the Lead Pr%-ss, foilow-, ed by the Fan Belts wba finished lest In the regular schedule at 3130. The other totals were: Hase Room - 3091; Machine Shop - 3043 and Combines - 2908. fronlcalhy, the Combines took the chamnplonshlp two weeks ago.

Farewell Blackburn of the Lead Press teck the high triple With an 828 total, whlle the high single went te the Machine Shop's Maurice Conway at 313. t t t t t N.H.L, ALL-STAR TEAM Aithough the picking of the N.H.. Ail-Star team Is aid nte", the announcemnent was miade last week, too late for us ta give our opinions in print. While we'Ul admit that it Is a tough job, and alsa that we didn't see many gaines, still there remaîns one large beet, in this reporter's nilnd. Ini particular, we can't understand how Alex Delvecchio made the second team left wing berth. He had a poor season, and yet was chosen over players who had a gaod season such as Ted Lindsay and Dick Duff ta name a couple. We would bave named a couple mare, but as we haven't the information that the big-shot sports-writers have at their disposal, we must- admit that whether or net Andy Hebenton or Dean Prentice, are left or right wingers, we're not sure. ti. t . t MIXED BOWLING Last week we awarded the Mixed Bowling Leagueý1 Championship ta Jack Band's team, hawever, we goofed as the,ý Winners were Jim Riehards' bowlers. Although Bond won twoý et the three games, Richards had a higher pin total of 3014 ta' 2955. This is the only league ta decide a title in this manner, 1 as far as we know, and we failed ta notice the difference.i Nevertheless, it is nice ta know that this column lias a few readers, as no iess than a dozen complaints were received. Don't forget the Mixed League Banquet at the Memorial Park Club Ranse, 6:30 p.m., Saturday, May 1Oth. t t t1 t t TOWN LEAGUE SOFTBALL Following Tuesday night's meeting, we ew-ect ta have a full report on sponsors, teams, schedule, etc., Mn next week's colunin.
