April 10, 1941 Verhovayak Lapja Page • ♦ SPORT PAGE McKeesport adopts BOWLING This game of bowling kéeps rolling along, always gathering additional friends and enthusiasts. The latest conscript to the great army of keglers is none other than Branch 395 of McKeesport, Pennsylvania. On Tuesday evening, March 25, 1941, at the McKeesport Y.M.C.A. alleys, members of Branch 395 con­gregated to usher in their bowling season, rather late but better than no season at all. The girls and boys were about evenly divided, nümbering 8 in all. How­ever, before the evening came to an end, eight additional bowling enthusiasts had joined the ranks. We may add that, with one or two exceptions, those who bowl­ed experienced their first game, and they didn’t do very bad considering their inexperience and newness. We understand that Albert Jozik was made Captain of Team No. 1 (it was the "Captain’s” debut in bowl­ing), supposedly to inspire the team to new heights of bowling success,'but instead of inspiring the inspired he "de-spired” and added great­ly to the number of low scores rolled, altho in the last game he rallied. con­siderably. The way he rolled some of those balls made one think that “Captain” Jozik was throwing the discus, However, the pin boys were glad to see him play, as it meant that they could sit longer without having to reset the pins. The “Captain’s” main diffi­culty was overcoming the bowling finesse and high score of his petite partner. Elizabeth Kanyusik, whose cutenéss might any day launch a thousand ships (remember Helen of Troy?). After two vain attempts, he finally was rewarded in the third game. Elmer Halas was Captain of Team No. 2, and altho having to leave before the match was over, rolled him­self a fairly decent score. We may also mention that the Normans didn’t fare too poorly either, roll­ing scores of 261 and 293. Team No. 1 will adopt as their battle cry, “Watch out for us because the Normans are coming!” Concerning the other play­ers, we have this to say: Paul Shalako played his games very seriously. (At this writing Paul is sched­uled to be examined for the Draft by Army physicians. Good luck! Paul.) .. Ethel Halas several times almost went down the alleys with the balls, for she clung too tenaciously to them... Marie Sand increased the tempo of her gum chewing every time she rolled a ball ... Johnny Toth tried his best to make high scores. ■>-. Helen Stipkovits jumped with joy every time she knocked down a pin . . . Mar­garet Popaeh played her games calmly... Fred Stip­kovits—now there’s a bowl­er! .. . Mike Hecht’s hand­someness, we fear, prevent­ed the girls from doing their utmost... Helen Ganyu pois­ed well before rolling but rarely made a good hit.

We had loads of fun. did a lot of ribbing, received some high class razzing, met some of the grandest people you can meet only in the bowling alleys. What a game! It certainly brings out the best and the worst in us (mostly the worst). It’s a grand sport. One of our members said, “I have two kids and they are' go­ing to bowl or I’ll want to know the reason.” Reason? He would have to stay home! At this writing I want to thank all those members who have made bowling a part of the sport program of our grand fraternal or­ganization—the VERHO­VAY. V Thanks to the officers of the four local branches, 21, 108, 364 and 514, for theii splendid cooperation. Thanks also to Director Frank Brogley (that big traffic officer). He is all right. Thanks to the boys who gave up much of their time and money to make this season a grand success, for without their cooperation we should have gone no­where. We won no championship but we surely made a lot of friends, which, after all, is part and parcel of fra­­ternalism. The Grand Home Service League, President Bill Laughlin, and Secretary Bud Zitnik, gave us a help­ing hand whenever we need­ed it. Fine fellows. This is how the boys fared in competition: In the first half we won 23 games and lost 11, finish­ed third. The boys averaged— Martin Pinter (2nd half only) John Barkó Bob Padery Steve Martin Joe Gregory (1st half only) Bill Miglets Andy Blasko Andy Nagy Paul Haydu Average 34 games 181 60 games 168 60 games 168 73 games 167 19 games 167 37 games 164 40 games 158 34 games 154 23 games 154 We also met the Niles, Ohio, branch, with whom we broke even in two games. Swell fellows. In our game with the Alli­ance, Ohio, branch, we split even in two games. In the second game of this match we beat them by an even hundred pins. Later they took us to the Verhovay Home where we had plenty to eat and drink. I don’t wish Karosy, Fo­dor and Ince any bad luck, but I hope the draft catches up with them (they look toe healthy). Nice girl friends those boys have. We traveled to Cleveland on March 30th and took the Branch 366 boys into camp by 107 pins, in their alleys. They certainly showed us a grand time, and what hospitality! Boy! those sandwiches were delicious. Ask Frank Brogley. He ate an even dozen. Incidentally, Branch 366 will come to Youngstown April 20th. Wishing you luck, boys. At this time I wish to thank the branches mention­ed for their fine receptions given us. Before concluding this L. VIROK S 631 SETS NEW HIGH SERIES IN TRI-STATE LOOP Trenton Regains First Place L. Virok, Jr., rose to the heights last Sunday, March 23rd, in the Verhovay Tri- State League, by turning in games of 191, 235 and 205 for a brillant 631 series, highest set of games in the league to date. Virok paced the Trenton team to two victories over New Brunswick, which in­creased the team’s lead in the standings. While defeating the New Brunswick team, Trenton also rolled a new high series of 2692, with games of 895, 921 and 876. After losing the first game to Manville, Franklin won two by nosing their oppon­ents in the second and third game. J. Bigg and A. Szabó played well for the winners, and J. Ballogh rolled well for the losers. Last Sunday, March 23rd. New York played a postpone­ment match with Trenton, of which Trenton won two. S. Papp’s 244 was the high game for the day.
