A DISCUSSION WITH LEGENDARY HALL-OF-FAMER, CAROL MANCINI

Editor’s note: Bowling has seen many changes over the years. With the number of league bowlers in steady decline, I thought it was time to discuss the situation with someone who’s knowledge and opinion I highly respect. Unfortunately...... only Steve showed up. Carol: Well Steve, I’ll keep this simple. Over the years, do you think the changes made to our sport have made it a better? Steve: Better is in the eyes of the beholder. While certain aspects of bowling are very different today, the game itself remains intact. All things evolve; bowling is no exception. In some ways it’s better, but in others it’s not. Change is a double-edged sword. Carol: What do you mean? Changes are either good or bad. Steve: Like I said, it depends on your point of view. If we examine all the changes, I’m sure we can find positives and negatives for all of them. Carol: Okay, let’s start with electronic scorekeeping. Hasn’t that corrupted our sport beyond re- pair? Steve: Corrupted? That’s pretty strong language. You must not like it very much. Carol: I really don’t! But what do you think of it? Steve: Personally, I...... Carol: Oh, never mind! Here are my thoughts about those monstrosities! I HATE ‘EM!!! How are kids supposed to learn about bowling without learning to keep score? Steve: On the other hand, those “monstrosities” make accurate record-keeping much easier and less expensive for everybody. Just ask your friend, Lucy Seiple or any other league secretary. Carol: I still hate them! Understanding scoring is an important part of this game! Beginners should start like we did; with pencil and paper! Steve: But think of all the trees that have been turned into housing and furniture instead of scrap-paper in a landfill. That’s good for businesses and the environment. Carol: GRRRRRRRR! Steve: Okay! Just for you, we’ll put Auto-Score in the “BAD!” column...... Carol: Absolutely! Steve: ...... but I doubt it has anything to do with the declining number of bowlers. Carol: I disagree. I’ll bet there are lots of old-timers who would love to come back and roll a few games, but don’t because they can’t figure out how to use those things! Steve: Good point, but kids don’t have a problem with them. Maybe some bowl because they don’t have to learn to keep score. Maybe pencil and paper should be optional. Carol: “H.. E.. double-hockey-sticks” must be freezing over! I just agreed with you about something! Comments or questions? PICK UP THE PHONE!!! Call Carol Mancini @ 1-562-807-3600 (Monday 2-7 PM PT). Email: [email protected]. We’d love to hear from you! Page 4 BOWLING NEWS April 16, 2015
