District Stars Agree Skill in Duckpin Game Is Attainable Only by Long Practice NEWS AND GOSSIP ABOUT BOWLERS CAPITAL LEADERS ALL ALLEY GRINDS Bowling Perfected by Much Drilling on Drives—Top Hard to Attain. BY R. J. ATKINSON. UCKPIN stars are made, not born. This is one point on which {he bowling powers are unanimous keep plodding, local duckpin authorities prescribe for would-be alley tists. ‘Thi is the only successful they agree ngton’s leading performers are system. Those who P rest to the realm have approached near of perfection took the alleys early and still are improving. The present wom- an stars wers among the first to take | up the game here, and their continual Torts to improve their respective scores hve enabled them to retain the top | against the tide of rising stars. | In this respect, as in many others tho duckpin sport is often compared to | goif. Al Gardner, the Convention Hall is partial to both games and jecided which he likes best. They :mble cach other in many respects, . like the ranking stars, gained an early start. Glenn and Howard Campbell, st duckpin bowl- crs in the District. both owe their pres- ent status to constant practice from the time they were old enough to keep a ball on the drives. They started early and have continted their efforts to per- f>ct their respective games. | Glenn Hard Worker. | Some of the older bowling fans re- coll when Glenn first drew recognition | »s a youngster on the drives in the | basement of Ingram Memorial Church. | At 16 he was heralded as a coming star. | His scores were sensational then and‘ his constant sociation with local slleys since has enabled him to per- foct his game to such an extent that is rated by many as the world's ng iittle pin champion. Campbell probably is the outstand- ing contender Wolstenholme will have | to face in sceking official recognition | as the small pin chempion. Both are advocates of the “start young and kccp; plodding™ formula. | Bowling sharps admit that in bowl- | ing as well as any other sport some sess more natural talent than others. y have been bowling for years but er have been able to improve their ley ability sufficiently to master the game. They lack the natural qualities that aid others in getting ahead.

Sensenbach, the 14-year- 'd High Point, N. C., boy bowler, is ing heralded as the coming star of Southeérn duckpin ranks. He was among the first youngsters to take up the game in his home town. He showed aptness from the start and after two years of continual practice is out- shooting many of the stellar duckpin | performers in the country. He is growing up with the game in his native | State, and George L.

Two or three seasons devoted to polishing her game carried her to the front, and from all appear- ances it is probable she will retain top ranking for some time, although scveral strong contenders have ad- vanced the past two seasons. Youngsters Here Shine. The most promising stars in the lo- cal duckpin firmament. at present fol- lowed the formula—start early and keep plodding. Jack Whalen, still classed as a sungster, made a rapid rise from ob- ure ranks of a few seasons ago to cop the first-ranking position last Spring. ‘He started as a_youngster and edvanced rapidly through constant de- votion to the game. Paul and Joe Harrison have th~ formula with marked success. Wherever one looks, whether in the time circuits or in the youngest °d leagues, the outstanding stars elf made.

The 40 mark has been broken only | seldom over the layout, McNerhany says, claiming that good gdlf is neces- sary to get below 40 on the course. The club pro said that Frank K.
