PAGE SIXTEEN THE ECHO August,^ WLINC Sports Page f By JACK ALEXANDER SPORTS CHATTER Bowling requires concentration Therefore, every care should be exercised in recognizing a fellow bowler’s right to this privilege The following suggestions will help you do this easily: Remain in back of foul line at all times. Control your temper and refrain from abusive language—^the pins can’t hear you and your fellow bowlers do not appreciate it If a bowler on the adjoining alley is addressing the pins, do not step in front of him to pick your ball off the rack, but remain out of sight until he is well on his way. If you are both ready to bowl at the same time, give him the first privilege unless he signals for you to proceed first. While delivering your ball, use only the width of your alley for any “contortion” or “body english” in which you may wish to indulge. After delivering the ball, walk straight back and do not remain standing at the foul line for an excessive length of time. Be a good sport at all times— give credit where credit is due and remember it is easy to be a good winner, but it takes a lot of sportsmanship to be a good loser. Remember that bowling is just a game, and that splits, misses and “taps” are just as much a part of it as the strikes and spares. Be on time for league meetings, matches and competitions, and thus be considerate of your fellow bowlers. Swimming In Lake To End Sept. 15th. Camp Sapphire will remain open for swimming through September 15. After that date it will be im possible to obtain the services of life guards and no more swim ming can be allowed. All other fa cilities will be available to em ployees. The athletic and recrea tion equipment will still be there for your use and the picnic grounds will be kept in good order throughout this fall. Fishing privileges will be open to all employees through Septem ber 30, whether or not they have previously fished at Sapphire. The lake may remain open for fishing through October, but a decision in this regard will be announced in the September issue of The Echo, depending upon the condition of the lake at that time. Fishing per mits can be secured in the Person nel department.
