Being of an unalytic: turn of mind the boy eventually noticed that while he could topple a single pin about eight ont of ten time: he did not hit the head pin, shooting at the bunch, more than 50 per cent | of the time ‘It dawned upon him then that his failure to reach the 100 average he| wis trying for was due not to lack ! of physical ability but o mental| attitude. He lacked concentration. | Shooting at a single pin, he could concentrate on it—und et it most of ile time.

A rough tabulation ‘of the score sheet shows that there were 15 spares in a ganie on which counts of 3 or less were registered and 2 strikes with counts of 4 and I. respectively. Prac- ticelly none of these counts were due to poor shooting in the strict sense of the word, but to cuts straight through the cemter.
