(!>uko uniucR5ity mcd'icM ccntaR BOWLING NEWS by Marge Stinnett Mary Lou Pate, (left) Asst. Director of Dietetics, has an average of 158, and was with the league when it organized. Yvonne Ausley, (right) Head Book keeper in the Hospital Business Office, with an aver age of 155, was with the league when it organized 8 years ago, and on Oct. 29, won first place in the Southern Tournament in high handicap set in singles for the weekend. Duke Lady Keglers made a good show in the Annual Association Tournament which was held at All Star Lanes in Chapel Hill, Saturday and Sunday, November and 12. In the Singles Competition, Yvonne Ausley tied for second place honors with a 648 series and Mary Lou Pate took 6th place with a 626 series. Miss Pate, with her partner, Polly Jordan, also placed 6th in the Doubles Event. Holding 4th place for a while but finishing up in 8th in the Team Event was the Bowlerette Team consisting of Suzanne Schrack, Mary Anne Dotson, Betty Crabtree, Jeep O'Briant and Sheila Smith. The Duke Medical Center's Women's Bowling League, consisting of 8 teams, 5 women to a team, is in it's 8th year of bowling. It was organized in 1960 with the help and cooperation of Mr. Charles Frenzel, Hosp ital Administrator and Mr. George Kantner, at that time Hospital Personnel Manager, and numbers among the earliest leagues formed in this area. Since that original beginning, the girls have participated in National tournaments. State tournaments, and each year are well represented in the Annual City Tourna ment . Only three charter members are still with the league but new recruits join yearly and interest never wanes. From September to April on Tuesday nights, 40 women from all departments of the Hospital and University trot out bowling bags containing shoes and ball, don slacks and shirts emblazoned with "Duke Medical Cen ter", and sally forth to another night of league bow- lingl One of this year's high-lights featured a "Beat the Boss Nite", in which each league member in vited her boss and his wife to a night of bowling and fun. The event was highly successful with around 75 participants and the girls hope to make this an annual affair. can'^ ^ by Grace McClees A pretty, young expectant mother put her two active youngsters to bed, and sat down for a few minutes. Her glance fell on the toy-filled play pen and she won dered if it would last through the six children she and her husband hoped for. Then she laughed to herself - "If no one knew us at the hospital. I'll bet my answers to some of the admitting nurse's questions would cause a little confusion." "Number of living children?", asked the nurse. "Two," replied Mrs. H, "a boy 18 months and a girl eight months old." "Eight months? But your chart says you're full-term ...uh, never mind...number of pregnancies?" "This is my first." The nurse was visibly shaken, "But you said...or I thought...please, say that again," Mrs. H. smiled, "You see, we wanted a little boy, so we adopted John Robert when he was five days old. Then we wanted him to have a sister, so we adopted Karen Lynne when she was six days old," Such was not the case, of course, because the parents are Dr. and Mrs, David Halbert - and he is Assistant Resident in Ob-Gyn as well as an NIH Fellow in Endo crinology. So, with all Joking aside, we would like to introduce James Andrew Halbert, first born, second son, third child (which is a neat bit of arithmetical acro batics, if you ask us I), pictured above at age one day with his proud parents - who joined this happy family on October 24, 1967, ...and a way to give thanks The medical center exists for people, and it's planned chapel facilities are dedicated to the memory and honor of people. When we desire to say "thanks" to a person of special importance, by giving him a gift, we many times find ourselves at a loss because there are very few "extra special gifts" from which to choose. If this happens' td you, keep in mind the unique gift of making a contribution to the Hospital Chapel Fund in honor of the special person. The Chapel Committee will inform him that you have honored him in this way. This is a year-round possibility, but the suggestion might be es pecially timely for you since we are approaching the Christmas and Holiday Seasons. - Chaplain Aitken
