Virginia Sauls Scores
New High At Forest Club
By JAMEB E. WILLIAMS
A new idea has been added, or
rather introduced, to Detroit's
bowling world; a mixed bowling
team. This team made their first
bid for recognition in competition
at the Sunnie Wilson's Bowl-O-
Drome last Monday night in the
house league. It was rather sudden
and unexpected to see Hardings
Woodcltoppers, which is th# name
of the newly formed sensation, out
class a field of nine teams by aver
aging a 790 game. The team is spon
sored by Henry Harding of Palmer
Bowl. It. consists of Robert Van
Buren. Richard Porter, Donzella
Scott and Virginia Sauls. An amaz
ingly high single of 242 was scored
by Virginia Sauls as when the
Harding taam took three games
from Mark Twain Hotel. This is the
highest single rolled this year by
any woman in any league. And
only a few male bowlers have been
able to even bowl a 220 this season.
The Roller Rink is leading the
way in the house league with six
victories and no losses Wendell
Packing trails witli four victories
and two losses; Cocktail Lounge
next with three wuis and three de
feats; Bowl-O-Drome and Mark
Twain tied up with two wins and
four losses. Kelsey Hayes and Lo
cal 1299 deadlock with no wins in
six start*. Champion Spark and
Harding Woodchoopers have
bowled only three games. Cham
pion Spark, lost two and won one
while Harding's Woodchoppers
chopped away for three victories tn
•a many atarta to give them a flam
ing beginning.

the previous year and with only

to have been held in the celler
position for the first two series, but

seven out of nine games to take
fourth place in the league, edging
out the Roosevelt Park team by
one game Frank Davis ftf the MVS
still holds the league high single
with a 235. All tha season's high
■cores were made in the past week.

stage with auch scores of 2877 and

In the earlier weeks of the current
bowling season to see a score of
2500 take first or second place in
the total number of pins knocked
down, but not so now, bowling is
back in its own. Higher averages
to follow. To illustrate, less than
five men rolled a 200-game or over
last week during competition in the
