PAUL HARVEY
Fieldcrest Employee Is Top Duckpin Bowler
A Fieldcrest employee is one of the
top duckpin bowlers in North Carolina.
Leonard Jarrett of Eden, an em
ployee at the Non-Woven Mill, has won
at least 100 trophies for duckpin bowl
ing and boasts a 124-plus average. He
has retained this high average since
1960.
Mr. Jarrett, who has been bowling
since 1956, has always bowled the duck-
pins.
In 1963 he achieved his first 500 set
which set a record for the highest three-
game set in the Southeast. The game
was bowled in Greenboro and the bowl
ing lanes in that city set aside a day
in his honor. The highlight of the day
was a game between the mayor of Eden
and the Mayor of Greensboro.
Mr. Jarrett has bowled throughout
North Carolina and the Southeast. In
recent weeks he has participated in
tournaments in Baltimore, Md., Nor
folk, Va., and Harrisonburg, Va.
He hopes that duckpin bowling will
make a comeback in this area. It has
increased in popularity in the northern
states and Mr. Jarrett says he feels the
trend will eventually move south.
