 Knocking down pins and getting strikes with polymer science and surface chemistry
A chemist recently asked me to join his bowling team. During the intense negotiation of my team contract, I inquired about custom-made balls for our squadron. Maybe a transparent ball with an intimidating skull in the center? Or perhaps a test tube or beaker?

 It is with great sadness that we report on the death of Helen Scott, wife of Sid Scott and part owner of Empire Lanes.
Visitation Tuesday 3-5 and 7-9 at Families First on Dougall.
Funeral at 1:30 Wednesday.
I have had the pleasure of knowing Helen and her family for many years. She was a joy to be around and had a special presence when ever she was near. The magic of her smile could light up the entire bowling center.

 Tommy Gollick wasn’t really paying attention.
He tossed a few practice balls and went to work collecting money for high game pots and side action. Gollick was so preoccupied that when the lights came on for scoring, he forgot what he was doing and left a split.
The problem was corrected in fame 2, and Gollick struck. He struck again in frame 3. And again in frame 4.

Two days after graduating from Miami’s Gulliver Prep High School, 18-year-old Andrew Koff of Miami defeated David Boyd of Coconut Creek, Fla., 243-199, to win the Professional Bowlers Association South Region’s Jupiter Lanes Open Sunday.
Koff, competing as an amateur, will receive the $2,500 first prize in the form of scholarship money deposited into his United States Bowling Congress SMART account. He will not receive formal credit for winning a PBA title, nor will he become eligible for the 2011 PBA Tournament of Champions, because of his amateur status.

Did you know about...
| ABC Tournament participation chevrons were first awarded at the 1949 event in Atlantic City. The original idea had been to honor Peter Howley for bowling in every ABC up to that time — 46 in all. That was changed, and chevrons were issued to all those who had competed in 25 or more tournaments — 113 men in all. As for Howley, though he lived until 1958, he never again bowled in the ABC. |
