INDIANAPOLIS – Every time Woodland Bowl in Indianapolis hosts a new Profes- sional Bowlers Association tournament, it adds another chapter to its remarkable history as bowling’s most versatile host bowling center, and it isn’t just prize money and a title that attracts bowlers from around the world. A lesser-known reality for Woodland Bowl’s PBA champions is that they earn a banner for permanent display in the center’s “Beer Thirty” lounge, an unusual “hall of fame” that commemorates an elite group of bowlers who have won titles in the only bowling center in the world that has hosted every different PBA major championship over the years, in addition to a number of other significant non-professional tournaments. There are cur- rently 40 banners hanging in “Beer Thirty,” including 38 representing players who have won titles at Woodland, plus one for PBA legend and Indianapolis native Dick Weber, and another for PBA veteran Ryan Shafer, celebrating a 300 game he rolled at the center. Beer Thirty got its name because it offers 30 different kinds of beer, according to clude its 2018 PBA Hall of Fame induction ceremonies on Saturday, Feb. 17, at the Mar- General Manager Jim Doty, and “because it’s time for a beer at 5 o’clock somewhere…” riott North in Indianapolis.

CUCAMONGA – Johnny Carson always consulted with KARNAK “The Magnificent” when he wanted pre- dictions for the future. I decided to do the same to find out what is in store for the sport of BOWLING in 2018. I heard that KARNAK once lived in Cucamonga, Cali- fornia so I decided to go there when “channeling” his spirit for help. Channeling is a lost art these days but I know enough about it to realize that the closer you can get to a spirits earthly haunts the better your chances for success. So off I went. Once in Cucamonga my focus centered on all levels of competitive bowling.

1979 - PART by1 Carol Mancini What was your average in 1979?? What kind of ball did you use? • 48 year old GLENN ALLISON was inducted into the ABC Hall of Fame along with CAR- MEN SAVLINO. • GUPPY TROUP got his nick name for his days bowling in a “Guppy League”. • FOY BELCHER ran the “School of Bowling”, complete with color slides. He was as- sisted by RON WINGER. • DONNA ADAMEK (21) was named “Bowler of the Year” by Bowling Writers. • 36 lanes were added to the SHOWBOAT, making the monster 106 lanes strong. • A.B.T.A. man BOB SMITH was sporting a big, black, bushy moustache. • BOB LOMAX popped a 300 game at ROWLAND BOWL. He always had to bowl others peoples tournaments. Winning his own ABA Club tournament was a No-No. • Junior bowlers at GABLE HOUSE could win a Moped! They got a drawing ticket for every game they bowled. • The Rose Parade theme was sports. What sports? Soccer, football, baseball, tennis, golf, skin diving, and skate boarding. Something was missing!! • LEISURE TIME SPORTS purchased MIRA MESA LANES in the San Diego Area. At least its still in business. • Hundreds of bowlers responded to the urgent call from the Red Cross for blood. The Red Cross received more from bowlers than any other plea ever made. • The Ventura County B.A.’s contributed $24,371.85 to B.V.L. Number one in the U.S. • At last, a movie about bowling and a bowler. “Dreamer” was (and is) about the struggle to become a pro-bowler. Worth watching but not an award winner. TIM MATHESON could actually bowl, averaging 196. • “Bowling For Groceries”? Yep, Spin the wheel after a strike and win a prize. Maybe a can of soup or a box of Animal Crackers. That gimmick spread all over California one year and disappeared. • TED DAWSON of KABC-TV fame added bowling to his nightly sports report. • 79 YEAR OLD BILL O’BRIAN rolled his highest game ever at ALHAMBRA VALLEY BOWL ­— a 276. He is currently bowling in 13 leagues a week. His highest was 17 a week! He had great stories including building the first freeway to Las egas!V (All by himself!) • VILLAGE LANES was under construction in El Monte — and ART GODDARD kept delaying the opening. • MIKE DI CIOLLA was the G.M. at COLUMBIA BOWL in Duarte plus GOLIAD BOWL in Texas! He was a rodeo champion in roping. • BOB PROBERT opened his pro shop in KONA LANES. • Eleven new centers were advertising for help; mechanics, desk people, managers — especially in Orange County. • The great BILLIE LEE of San Diego was inducted in California Women’s Hall of Fame, along with Mildred Lowe (State Treasurer). • ART GODDARD rolled his first 300/803 at COLUMBIA BOWL. He found time to bowl league between running KEYSTONE LANES and building VILLAGE LANES. • Here are a few names to jog your memory! MARY ALPINE, ALEX CORTEZ, DAN CHO- VAN, GREGG LOWIS, KEVIN GANNON, BOB BURKE, JESS STAYROOK, LEE TAY- LOR, WAYNE HOCKERSMITH. BOB FENTON, MIKE McGRATH. BEN HWEE, VICKIE MYERS, PEGGY RUNYON, ROSE WILLIAMS, WALTER JACKSON, TOM LONG, MAR- TIN AGAR, ROY HOERNKE, NAT ROSENFELD, FRED EASTWOOD, RILEY POODREY, BEN TULAO, D0N DROOKER, MARGE BRADFORD, FIDEL HERNANDEZ, DERALD ADAIR, HERB ROTH, JUANITA BLOCKER, VIRGINIA NORTON, BUTCH MOWRY, SHEL HIPPO, JIM LUNDGREN, BILL STREET, SONNY EUBANKS, and thousands of others.

At the end of March 2016, a drama occurred in the Netherlands and in particular for Youri, when his bowl- ing house Bowling Dolfijn in Tilburg was destroyed by a fire. The bowling burned completely, and nothing remained of the bowling equipment of the match bowlers that were stored in lockers. A few months before he would participate at the World Youth Championship at Lincoln Cleveland, Youri lost all his equipment in one go. Spontaneously, a crowd funding action was started, sponsors contributed and sufficient money was col- lected to let Youri’s dream take part in the World Championship. Owners, Thomas Dol and his parents, did not stop after the fire and immediately planned the construction of a new center bowlers to initiate the courses during an invitation tournament. A beautiful modern bowling Centre rose from the ashes, with a underground parking garage, party halls, Thomas Dol with his parents 24 lanes with QubicaAMF scoring system and pinsetters, a new PROSHOP, and Kegel Training Centre, with video, Spectro and Torch system.
