The More Things Change,by TheDave Williams More They Stay The Same While working on an article for BCM Maga- zine, I stumbled upon a PBA Tour Program Yearbook in my “mini-storage warehouse bowl- ing museum” that had become separated from my 38 year collection of annuals. Every year the PBA would provide to each member a new copy as part of the $300 annual fee for membership, assuming that you also maintained the neces- sary criteria to be a part of this very elite group of traveling vagabonds.

The yearbook was from 1975, my very first year of membership in the PBA. As I perused the pages, a thought came to me that I have quoted often in my life - “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” The phrase is most often credited to Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr, an educator, writer and floriculturist from France that lived during the 19th century.

While major sponsors have always been important to the PBA members and their exis- tence, the names have changed considerably. Thumbing through the first few pages there are full page advertisements from most of the indi- vidual tournament sponsors: Midas, Showboat Hotel, King Louie Apparel, Monroe Shock Absorb- ers, Ford Motor Company, Ebonite, AMF, Brunswick, Firestone, and The Miller Brewing Company, to name but a few.

Today, there seems to be only two major sponsors on the pro bowlers tour - Kia Motors and Guaranteed Rate Mortgage. Although this arrangement appears to be somewhat different than in 1975, the sponsorships that are necessary to improve the prize funds are still there… with an incredible assist from Bowlero, the mammoth bowling center conglomerate that’s obviously under- writing the whole process.

What I found most interesting were the player profiles near the center of the publication. Missing from the prominent players were both Pete Weber and Walter Ray Williams Jr., who had not yet begun their illustrious careers. The top player in earnings was Earl Anthony, who had just come off his best year in 1974, with five titles and a total of $96,160 in earnings.

Earl’s total may not seem like a lot compared to the numbers being flashed about today. At last count, Kyle Troup had earned $469,000 so far in 2021, eclipsing the one year record total of $419,700 set by Walter Ray Williams Jr. in the 2002-2003 season. However, if you adjust Earl’s winnings from 1974 for inflation, that amount equates to $541,245 (dollartimes.com). Walter Ray’s number is not as dramatic in change but does clock in at a record $618,681 when adjusted for inflation.

Taking a closer look at the player profiles, it is apparent that there’s a learning process that must take place before a player joins the elites of the game. In a regular job, it’s better known as “paying your dues.” Mark Roth provides a perfect example. The talented right handed bowler from New Jer- sey had five years under his belt at the time of the PBA publication in 1975, and showed a gradual improvement each year: 1970-$1,132; 1971-$2,520; 1972-$12,103; 1973-$19,900; 1974-$35,779. Mark Roth

And yet, there are exceptions to this rule. Appearing next to Roth in the yearbook is Eddie Ressler, a nineteen year old from Allentown, Pennsylvania. In only his second year on the tour, Eddie had claimed his first title in the Winston-Salem Classic at Major League Lanes in Winston- Salem, North Carolina. Another exception outlined in the 1975 yearbook is Mike Durbin, who won two titles in his inaugural season of 1967 on the PBA Tour (Tampa, Florida and Youngstown, ), and a total of $23,035 in earnings (adjusted for inflation, that would equate to $182,371 today).

Durbin never seemed happy on the tour, often expressing his displeasure with the extensive travel. He originally hailed from Burbank, California, where his parents owned a six lane bowling center. Over the years, Mike tried his hand at managing a very large bowling center for Don Carter in the Fort Worth area, then spent a brief time as the PBA50 Senior Tournament Director, and fi- nally found his niche when he teamed with Denny Schreiner to form what is arguably the greatest broadcast team that bowling has ever known.

Another similarity that I noticed while thumbing through the pages of the 1975 Yearbook is in the scheduling of televised events. In 1975 the winter-spring events were televised on ABC, which originally began in 1962 as part of ABC’s Wide World of Sports. Then in 1974, Home Box Office (HBO) began airing the PBA’s Summer Tour with a slate of ten telecasts (ESPN did not begin televi- sion broadcasts until 1979 and aired their first PBA event in 1985). Today, it is Fox and Fox Sports (FS1) that have taken the reigns of the PBA telecasts with phenomenal results.

It’s too bad that Mike Durbin isn’t still competing on the PBA50 Tour. Since most of the events are now broadcast from just a few locations, and then rebroadcast at a later date, one of his major com- plaints about the travel has been eliminated. And no one was better at framing a shot, and making the same delivery over and over, once he was lined up at one of the tours stops. I’m not sure about Mr. Durbin’s health, or even his whereabouts, but if there’s anyone that could make a comeback at the age of 80, that person would be Mike Durbin!

I like inventive team names. Here are few on my fun list.

Queens continued from page 1 Parkin opening in two of her first four frames.

Bond stayed clean through the first six frames and then tossed six consecutive strikes to seal the victory.

Bond noted how quickly the 42-foot oil pattern was transitioning during her warm-up shots as she waited for the opportunity to start the title match, and she was able to see the path she wanted to take.

“Every time I was able to take a couple of practice shots, I would mark down where I finished,” said Bond, a five-time Team USA member. “When I returned to pair, I would start there and see how much it changed. I think we did a good job of tracking the transi- tion and moves, so it didn’t take me too long to figure out where I needed to be after a few small tweaks. Staying in the pocket was the name of the game.”

The three-time PWBA Regional champion also was able to rely on things she learned Monday in the final match in the winners bracket against Liz Kuhlkin of Schenectady, New York. Bond rolled 257 in the final game of that match after making a jump to the left. She recorded the win and earned the top seed, 663-620.

“In the match against Liz, I had to change my game plan, and it gave me confidence to know I could make the jump into that zone,” Bond said. “I had tried to see what was out farther right, which had been my path to success for most of the bracket, and it looked like by the time it was going to be my turn in the title match, it wasn’t going to look too great. A lot of it was reading my ball motion and trusting what I saw. I made some quick decisions and trusted it, and fortunately, it worked.”

Parkin won two matches to advance to the final, but she also knew she would have to make some moves to stay ahead of the transition in the title match.

Parkin defeated England’s Verity Crawley, 236-220, before striking out in the ninth and 10th frames of her semifinal match to defeat Kuhlkin, 223-211.

Kuhlkin had the chance to double in the final frame to advance to the championship match, but she left a 2 pin on her first delivery.

“They were transitioning very quickly, like they had all week,” said Parkin, who made her third championship-round appearance of the season and collected her second runner- up finish of 2021. “Even before the final match, I had grabbed another bag because I was anticipating what was going to happen. Unfortunately, I made the wrong move to start and didn’t figure them out quick enough.”

The 39-year-old right-hander took away a lot of positives from her time at the NBS, knowing she made some strides in her execution during the week. WANTED “I’m extremely proud of my execution,” said Parkin, a 12-time Team USA member. “Starting the week, I didn’t really have a great look. I ended up drilling a few bowling balls, which made a big difference, and I feel, especially yesterday, I physically executed Looking for Energetic, Committed really well during the matches. I’m very proud with how I bowled this week.” Tuesday’s stepladder finals started with Crawley defeating Latvia’s Diana Zavjalova, and Responsible Employees 197-172. in Southern California Zavjalova was looking to become the third player to win three Queens titles after capturing the tiara in 2013 and 2017. USBC and PWBA Hall of Famers Mildred Ignizio (1967, 1970, 1971) and Wendy Macpherson (1988, 2000, 2003) are the only players to Mechanics win the event three times. The 2021 event started with 110 competitors. After 15 games of qualifying over three Desk, Bar, Food Service days, the top 63 players and Ukraine’s Dasha Kovalova, who was guaranteed a spot in the bracket as the defending champion, advanced to match play. Send resumes to Kovalova won two matches at the NBS before she was eliminated Monday by Josie Barnes of Hermitage, Tennessee, 629-609. Kovalova finished tied for 25th place.
