Bowlers’ Story Is Spreading
••••
Die determined succeH story of Kings
Mountain’s duckpln bowlers continues to spread
ttmughout the southeast.
As you’ll recall, local bowlers salvaged the
lanes when old Mountain' Lanes Bowling Center
was destroyed many years ago, and about a year
back they purchased automatic plnsetters and
Installed two good lanes In the basement of DlUlng
Heating.
’Ihelr story was first told here, then picked up
by other area papers and then hit Duckpln World,
the Bible of duckpln bowling In the United States.
Now, their story la being told by Lennox News
the magazine for Lennox-Ooiporate Marketing.
DlUlng, as you know. Is this city’s dealer for
Lennox heating and cooling supplies.
Even since the bowler’s story was last told here,
their success has grown, even greater. ’Diey’ve
captured some more national titles and the In
terest In their two weekly leagues (the ’Tuesday
and ’Thursday night mixed leagues) has continued
to grow, with more an^more_bowlers taking part.
lOngs Mountain area fishermen are going to be
awfuUy happy In the near future.
State WUdllfe officials are currently In the
process of conducting tests on the fish population
of Moss Lake and they report that the lake Is
heavUy populated with blue gill, largemouth
bass and carp.
’Die lake was stocked with over 10,000 channel
catfish last week and plans are to stock some
40,000 more In the near future. ’The cats, officials
said, should weigh around a pound within a year’s
time and should grow rapidly after that.

Another Shrine Injustice
’Ihe Shrine Bowl team, announced a week ago,
always gives one a chance to let some steam off,
and this year’s no exception. There is always
eomeone left off that should have been on, and
that’s understandable, because out of all the
hundreds of high schools in the state, only 86
players ■ can be selected. But the thing that tees
me off about this year la Coach Don Hlpps of East
Mecklenburg chose one player that psu^dpated
In lees than half of his team’s 11 games. Granted,
the young man Is a good athlete and good enough
to play In the Shrine Bowl. But I know somehwere
In North Cardllna there Is a young man with Just
as much talent that played an entire season.
Making a choice such aa this Is a grave Injustice to
the thousands of athletes who worked hard all
year . . .
Western Carolina owned the nation’s number
two rusher (Darrell Llpford) and the number one
pass receiver (Wayne ToUeaon) this football
season but got very little ink from the state’s big
dally newspapers . . .
Girls Race Wide Open
Die Southwestern 8-A Ck>nference basketball
seasmi, which began Friday, should have the
same familiar faces (Crest and Shelby) at the top
of the boys’ race, but die girls race should be wide
open. North Gaston, which walked off with league
honors the past two seasons, lost three of Ita five
starters. Including the SWC’s top two players,
Nancy Scoggins and Donna Elrod. Several teams.
Including KM Bums, Crest, East Rutherford,
East Gaston, R-S Glentral and South Point, have
all or moat of their players returning, ao It should
be quite a race . . .
