Keep Elbow j Near Body, Nagy Urges* (This is the second ot five stories on BETTER BOWLING written especially for AP News features by Steve Na*y, Bowler of the year.) By STfcVE NAGy The correct grip for bowling resembles a handshake. The thumb is on top and, the fingery at the side. JThc palm is toward the body at all times. The stance has many possible variations. When you take your stance, stand with your left foot (for right banded bowlers) slightly forward, face the pins and hold the ball in both hand9 so the left hand can carry most of the weight. Many bowling instructors say hold the ball In the center of your body. I feel that It's better to hold the ball to the right so you will be sure to get a straight backswing and delivery. This keeps your arm from crossing your body at an angle when you deliver the ball. Keeping the elbow near the body is the Important rule here. The ball can be held anywhere from chin high to knee high?I prefer waist-high. , STEVE NAGY PROPER GRIP is like a hand shake, says bowler of the year Steve Nagy. Bison Butcher MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) ?

One ;op who was sitting in a barber's ;hair reading the paper, saw his iame on the list and dashed out >f the shop with half a hair cut. \ Brooklyn man shouted exuber intly to his friends that he had two surprises in one day: Arst, he saw his name on the income-tax refund list; second, his wife an nounced to him that she was going to have a baby. 3 Want to make your vacation pay? rhen just slap a uranium-finder an your car. I saw displayed in side a Broadway garage window, 27 Qeiger counters for this purpose, along with a piece of inviting-look ing ore which apparently is the object of such treasure-searches. Mounted on a board nearby was a printed story of how a woman had bought one of the gadgets for $100, hooked it onto her car, took off for Canada and found a rich strike of uranium. 3 The insurance laws of the state of New York are said to be the strictest in the nation. This condi tion is mostly the result of the courageous crusading, some dec ades ago. of the late Charles Evans Hughes. His name reminds us that forty years ago, he ran for Presi dent, mainly against his wishes. His defeat was by a narrow margin ? he had made Senator Hiram Johnson mad. But Hughes went to bed one night thinking he had been elected President. Then the electoral votes of California came in. A reporter telephoned and ask ed to speak to Mr. Hughes. The but ler loftily replied that "the* Presi dent" had already gone to bed and could not be disturbed. For a moment, the reported paused. "Well, just tell him when he wakes up," he said, "that he's not the President". 3 Brooklyn is the "city of churches" but one such Institution there is short a shepherd. For sev en long years now, the church has had a "pastor famine" and when the congregation shows up on Sun day, .its members don't know 1 whether they'will find in the pul- 1 pit a new preacher or Estes Ke- I f'auver. You see, the regular min- j < ister was dismissed in 1949 and the ' flock have not agreed yet on his < successor. The son of the former minister tried preaching there for ( awhile, but some of the church , fathers liked him so little, they simply locked him out of the 1 church. He broke in, fumed and 1 preached hell-fire and damnation i upon them. Now, the officials are sending in substitute pastors, but most of them take one sermon at the divided place, then evaporate. 3 It took television to get some lo cal railroad ticket-sellers to hur ry up. Down at the hulking Penn sylvania Station here, one often has to wait in line for itckets long enough to eat a 7-course dinner. And sometimes you look at the slow-pokey ticket man Addling around inside the cage and you'd like to start off the said meal by taking a healthy bite off of one of his ears. But now the railroad officials are planning to put in some new-fangled gewgaws which are designed to help sell tickets faster?and bring their system up to-date from Its present 50-years ago aspects. One new device will be closed-circuit television to show when travelling space is available. So don't be surprised some morn ing when you're crawling out of a Pullman bunk to find yourself on television. 3?
