fx ' T r: J 11 Thursday; April 30, 1964 THE MeHENHY PLAINDEALffl TvvMflVtOiil Lakeland Park METS WIN FIRST PLACE TROPHY IN BOWLING TOURNEY Barbara Meurer -- 385-4356 Kay Drum! The mighty Mets came from the very bottom of the league for the first half of the season to first place for the second half. Not only did they do this in fine form but they trounced the Dodgers on Saturday, and earned the trophy given to the top team. Comprising the Mets were Barb Meuer, Bunny Jaenicke, Matt Grizley and John Johnson. We'd say they earned their trophy the real hard way. The standings for tlje year had the Dodgers with the most points 38, following in this order were the Yankees, Sox, Mets, Cubs, Braves and Pirates tied and last but by no means least were the Orioles. Top sweepstakes winners for Saturday were Shirley George who rolled 101 pins over her average, Esther Cygan took second with 76 pins over. Jessie Matthews-with 74 pins took 3rd and Barb Meurer and Dottie Becker tied with 66 pins over for 4th place. The men who took the honors for sweepstakes were Matt Grizley with 83 pins over, Our Haerle was second with 66 followed by Bob Matthews in Third with 41 pins and Joe Prazak took 4th with 40 pins over. It was a very enjoyable season and the officers did a terrific job of running the strictly for fun league. Our hats are off to Max Koch, president, Ron Meurer, secretary, and Eleanor Haerle, treasurer. We'll all be waiting for next years season to begin. Don't forget to get those baby sitters lined up for May 16, it's bowling banquet night. k Girl Scouts We started our meeting with a flag ceremony. Mrs. Dowell told us how good we were at the Fair. We got a lot of attention. Then we used our art in drawing pictures with chalk and colored pencils. Some girls made figures with clay. We had our treat, then we said good-by in our friendship circle.
