Don’t Neglect Spares By ANDY VARIPAPA Famous Bowling Authority (Written for AP Feature Service) Every ball can’t be a strike in bowling so it is advisable to dis- cuss spares. If you have difficul- ty with some spares, the best ad~ vice I can give is that you go to an alley and bowl that particular! spare until you have gained con- fidence and can make it consist- ently. How do you make spares? Well, if it’s the No. 10 pin or any pins on the right side cf the alley, stand on the left side ee roll to- ward the right. In other words, always roll from the opposite side from where the pins are still anding after you have delivered first ball. Picking off the No. 7 pin spare is not as difficult as bagging the delivery is more natural. The best way to roll for the No, 7 pin is to deliver the ball from the right side of the alley diagonally from right to left. This is an easy spare for the average bowler. The most successful way to get the No. 10. pin is to roll from the left side. ‘The delivery is practically the same as bowling for any spare except that.. you don’t follow through quite as much as when you roll for spares on the left side of the alley. The No. 10 pin causes many bowlers to talk to themselves be- is 1? most difficult single pin spare in bowline rIt THE KEY WEST CITIZEN NORTHWESTERN WILDCATS SHOW.

Lynn Waldorf, head coach of the Wildcats, says the squad which won six games and_ lost two was the most spirited he has handled in his six years at North- western. The record book pro- vides backing for his opinion. Beaten only twice—by Michi- gan and Minnesota—the Wildcats showed an offense that rolled up 170 points. But what Waldorf likes to point out is that only one team scored on Northwestern in, the last period. On the other hand, ; the Wildcats made 71 points in fourth-quarter surges. “That shows”, Waldorf ex- plains, “the way. those kids car- ried the fight right down to the final gun. It was a good club.' didn’t have the reserve strength of a great eleven but it: Feature Service) made up for that on various occa- ions with great spirit”. Typical of Northwestern’s scrap was the exhibition against Michi- gan. Howitzer Harmon and his mates had rolled up a dishearten- ing 20-6 lead going into the fourth quarter when the Wildcats. began to claw. They pulled up to with- in tying distance with a second basoricel and came banging back toWard another in the clos- ing minutes, missing a first down on the Michigan seven by a scant foot.
