NATIONAL DEAFby Connie BOWLING Marchione NEWS FLORES 264/900, FISSER 255/897 TOP DEAF TRAVEL AT DEL RIO MID CITY HITS TEAM HIGH GAME 640, RIVERSIDE HIGH TEAM SERIES 2256 DOWNEY — Chalk up two in row for Dan Flores in leading the Southern California Deaf Traveling League’s 8 bowlers honor roll list in the latest stop at high scoring Del Rio Lanes. Flores’ day’s high series 900 with games of 213-264-191-232 nipped Mark Fisser’s 897 by 3 pins. Fisser had games of 224-226-255-192 in his 897, which is 3 pins shy of his 2nd 900. Also Flores’ day’s high game 264 made with 8 strikes in row, stopped by a pocket hit 7-10 pins is 3 pins short of Fisser’s season high game 267 made in his season high series 972 both in the season opener. Anyway Flores’ 264 replaces his own 256 made in the season opener as the season high game. Ed Abakumoff got his first 800 of this new season with 860 from 245-213-193-203. Ed’s team- mate Gorman Low missed as the day’s 4th 800 by 9 pins with his 791 from 231-202-181-177. Ditto for Jeff Stansell who missed as the 5th with his 780 when after first three 164-204-255 he slumped to a 157. His 255 had a front 7 strikes in row. The rest on the roll list were Stansell’s teammate Andy Lorenzo with (206-211) 758, Bob Jones starting good with 411 but finished with a 746 and Jones’ teammate 90 years young Connie Mar- chione closed with a 210 for 727. The women’s highlight is Anita Lorenzo who replaced her season high game 184 with her new 194. The league averaged season high 175 plus per bowler at the high scoring Del Rio Lanes with new season high team game and team series. In the first game Riverside with Low’s 231 and Aba- kumoff’s 245 created new season team high 594 replacing Anaheim’s 571. But in the 2nd game Mid City trio of Lorenzo 206, Paul Taffolla 190 and Stansell 204 broke the 600 barrier for the first time this season. In the third game Mid City Trios got hotter with Lorenzo’s 211, Taffolla’s 174 and Stansell’s 255 for new high 640. Mid City replaced Anaheim’s season high team series of 2155 with 2224 and in turn was replaced by Riverside’s 2256. Fisser’s Anaheim moved from 3rd to first place with a 16-4 win over OC County. Former first place Jones’ Eagle Rock lost to 2nd place Stansell’s Mid City 14-6 and dropped from first to 3rd place. Mid City retains 2nd place 1 point behind Anaheim and two points ahead of Eagle Rock. Abakumoff’s Riverside a 14.5-5.5 winner over Flore’s S. F. Valley swapped 4th and 5th placed. The League thanks Del Rio Lanes staff and management for the excellent scoring conditions.

ROSEby Joy McGregor VIGIL ORANGE COUNTY — 2013 Fall Nationals Rose Vigil joined the Orange County Women’s Bowling As- sociation in 1975 as a director. October 15 – October 20, 2013 In 1978 she was elected to the valued Treasurer spot, taking Sponsored by: over from retiring Helen Bel- lows. Rose was in her ele- ment and loving numbers, she excelled! At the 1986 WIBC national convention and tour- nament hosted by Orange County, Rose was the audi- tor for all the scores bowled. She and her committee did an outstanding job and she was personally praised by WIBC president, Helen Baker. Rose was a delegate to many state and national con- ventions over her tenure on the Orange County WBA board. Rose and president of the OCWBA, Ramona Clark, were travelling companions and frequent roommates on these “fun” trips. Ramona has many “stories” of some of their $40,000.00 adventurers. “Rosebud”, as she was affectionately known First Place with all Bonuses – Top 59 to Finals was a feisty little gal, with two nd obvious passions: bowling 2 $20,000.00, 33rd – 59th $500.00, Low to cash in Semi’s $250.00 and gambing (not necessarily in that order).

Page 8 BOWLING NEWS October 10, 2013 Koivuniemi Wins Columbia 300 Vienna Open for 12th PBA Tour Title PBA Player of the Year, World Bowling Tour races get tighter heading into Thailand event

VIENNA, Austria – The 2012-13 Professional Bowlers Association Player of the Year race got even more interesting Sunday when Mika Koivuniemi, a Finnish native now living in Hartland, Mich., won his third PBA International Tour title of the season, defeating fellow Finn Pasi Uotila, 258-237, in the title match of the Columbia 300 Vienna Open at Plus Bowling Center. With his win, Koivuniemi became the first PBA Tour player to win three titles – all on foreign soil – during the 2012-13 season. He previously won the Round1 Japan Cup followed by the Qatar Open in back-to-back World Tenpin Bowling Association/PBA International Tour events in Decem- ber 2012. Jason Belmonte, Australia (Bear Open and USBC Masters) and Scott Norton, Mission Viejo, Calif. (Chameleon Open and PBA Players Championship), are the only other multiple title winners this season with two each. Koivuniemi, who owns 12 PBA Tour titles, also moved into second place in the WTBA’s World Bowling Tour men’s points standings and won a 7,000 Euro first prize (est. US$9,500) to take the 2012-13 PBA Tour earnings lead with $172,312 (roughly $3,500 ahead of Belmonte). The Vienna Open was the next-to-last World Bowling Tour qualifying event heading into the PBA World Series of Bowling. With his victory, Koivuniemi earned 50 WBT points and now ranks second with 534 points, trailing leader Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill., who has 563 points after picking up 23 points for his seventh-place finish in Vienna. Trailing Koivuniemi and Rash on the men’s points list are Mike Fagan of Fort Worth, (506); Tommy Jones of Simpsonville, S.C. (494); Chris Barnes of Double Oak, Texas (491), and Belmonte (477). The top three men and top three women on the WBT’s rolling two-year competition points list will earn berths in the WBT Finals presented by the PBA, which will be held on Nov. 3 as the final event on the PBA World Series of Bowling V program. The top three WBT women have clinched berths. Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J., is the leader with 647 points followed by Liz Johnson, Cheek- towaga, N.Y. (555) and Missy Parkin, Laguna Hills, Calif. (539). The final WTBA/PBA International Tour tournament and final WBT qualifying event leading into the PBA World Series of Bowling V will be the WBT Thailand which will be held Oct. 14-21 at Bul-O Paragon in Bangkok, Thailand. WBT points at stake begin at 50, 40, 35, 30 and 25 for the top five players, respectively, with lesser points awarded based upon where players finish. WSOB V is set for Oct. 25-Nov. 3 at South Point Bowling Center in Las Vegas. The WBT Men’s and Women’s Finals will be held on Nov. 3. Finalists in each gender division will bowl for $20,000, $10,000 and $5,000 prizes. Seven PBA Tour titles remain to be decided during the 2012-13 season: the WBT Thailand, four animal pattern championships (Cheetah, Viper, Chameleon and Scorpion) plus the PBA World Championship during WSOB V, and the season-ending Round1 Japan Cup in Tokyo.

Card Driveby Mary LynlyKicks Off 29 PALMS — In the first years of our Phone Cards for the Troops charity we longed for a word from someone who received one of our cards. It finally became clear that the wives of the troops serving were the ones who began sending us thank you notes. We now have received many and in one instance a note from the Byrum children saying “Thank you for the phone cards so my dad can call us. I miss him a lot.” Axel Byrum. All of the notes express heartfelt thanks for the opportunity to talk to their loved ones. We do make a difference. We send our cards through the 29 Palms AFYMCA where packages are sent to the troops and our cards – enclosed in an envelope with our identity information are included. Carla Marie Wie- dler said, “I just want to say thank you for your donation of the phone cards. Luckily, I have received one and I am highly looking forward to hearing my Marine’s voice and that is because of you. I’m stationed here in 29 Palms and I have told my friends about your wonderful phone cards that AFYMCA is distributing. Thank you to everyone involved for your time and effort, it surely is not wasted! There is not a price tag you can put on what you are doing for the military members who receive these. So thankful.” They all give thanks for helping their families stay in touch. The troops endeavor has raised nearly $60,000 for the phone cards we send. We started out with a small donation of $500 and last year it was over $8,000! You can donate in memory or in honor of someone or just to support our cause. We are grateful to the CUSBC BVL program and the Camellia City 500 club and the Bowl- ing Proprietors of Southern California for their generous donations each year. If you know of someone who is deployed and would like a card sent directly to them just let us know. Send the information to Chairman Wendy Boswell, 3118 Lake Mead Court, Chico, CA 95973-5810. Direct donations go to CBW Treasurer Tina Martin, 57 Shields Lane, Novato, CA 94947-3877. Deadline for donations is December 31, and the cards are sent to arrive for Valentine’s Day – 2014. All donors will be put in a pool and a lucky person will be drawn to receive a Tony Reyes commemorative bowling ball!
