  • International Champion, He Remained Humble
    International Champion, He Remained Humble As told by Raymond Rolak World Traveler and Promoter of Polonia Friday, 12 November 2010 DETROIT -- He was World famous. He bragged about Detroit. He was a Champion Bowler and much more. Eddie Lubanski, 81 passed this week. Lubanski was also a ballplayer, an accomplished pitcher. “We loved it when we got to play on Diamond # 1 at Northwestern Field. That was the pinnacle. The infield was manicured like a pool table,” he had said. Lubanski signed as a pitcher with the old St. Louis Browns and bounced around in the minors. “I got my perseverance from my father, Edward. I was playing in the Wisconsin State League, went 23-5 in my second year, but decided that I had a better future in bowling. It wasn’t a good life for Betty.” Buck Jerzy put it in perspective. Jerzy got to talk and travel with Lubanski extensively during the Detroit All-Star Classic days in the 60’s. Jerzy said, “Eddie was class, he was a gentlemen’s- gentleman. Classy and humble, he would focus and help the younger guys. I was a publicist and he helped me; we would talk bowling and college hockey. He always gave me a new angle for a new story.” Bowling success brought Lubanski international notoriety. His television matches on ABC-TV with Johnny King were legendary. King would sport giant Churchill cigars, much bigger than Eddie’s. During the pro-ladder matches Lubanski would use body-English to coax his pin roll. It was pure theater. King was known to jump over the ball returns after a double strike.

Much of that homely environment likely is a welcoming one for most Minnesotans, who don’t need to travel much farther than half-an-hour outside of Minneapolis to encounter the farm-and-tractor culture known throughout many of the state’s smaller towns. The stool cushions rest atop legs that evoke turkey feeders; some walls look like repurposed shipping containers; a deer with formidable antlers towers over a fi replace, around the corner of which sits a soaring stack of logs. Patrons of this 23,000-square-foot space with eight bowling lanes in The Shops at West End likely feel right at home there. Manufacturer highlights: US Bowling string pinsetters, ML-3000 lanes, and above-ground ball returns.

Szczerbinski, McEwan take titles at Team USA Trials 300 Game The 2013 USBC Team USA Trials recently wrapped up in Henderson, Matthew Pearson Nev., with John Szczerbinski of North Tonawanda, N.Y., taking the William Pfister men's title and Danielle McEwan of Stony Point, N.Y., defending her Joseph Tremper women's title. Both winners will represent the United States at the David Vander Hoek QubicaAMF World Cup later this year. 800 Series Competitors had to go through a grueling five-day, 30-game format to Matthew Pearson see who could make the stepladder finals. Go here for a recap of the Joseph Tremper tournament and to see who made 2013 Team USA. Tip of the Month - Get in shape for tournament season Many of us happily snacked on sugary baked goods and other tasty treats during the holiday season, but now it's time to shed those few pounds you might have gained. With the bowling tournament season quickly approaching, a simple workout routine and diet will help you get back into shape. A safe rate of weight loss (about two pounds per week) will limit side effects and maximize your ability to keep the weight off.
