HE eandlepin game has
so many different com
binations that tlioy in a
measure Hie respons ble
for the great hold the
game has taken on the
public. Th opportunities for combina
tions are beautiful, and expert rollers take
particular de ight in buying up a hard
spare leave.
Some of the bre .ks are practically im
possible unless there is a piece of dead
wood resting in a good position on the
alley. On tho?e occasions a man mut
use the most minute calculation and de
pend upon absolute accuracy. He may
try to hit a particular combination many
connect with No, 2. No. 1 pin will roll
and bring down 3, G and 10, while No. 2
will carry with it 4 and 7, and the ball
going through between 1 and 2 will drop
5 and 8. Pin 5 will topple pin 9. The
hit can also be made by a 1 and 3 com
bination. One of the worst hit a man
can make is to cut out No. 2 or No. 3
pin.
A 1-10 spare U impossible unless there
is dead wood which lies between the two,
3 or 4 inches up. The ball will carom
oil and get 1 while dead wood gets the 10
pin. For 1-2-4-7 play between No. 1 and
2 as is done with a stiike ball.
For 4-7-3-0 play 3 thin and the pin will
be thrown onto 4 and 7, while the ball

times before he is successful, but prac
tice will develop accuracy of eye and
hand, and a man in time can get a fair
percentage of good hits.
There is one thing, however, a league
bowler should remember and that is,
that every pin counts and that if he can
buy up 10 by using the three balls it is
safer as a general rule, than playing dif
ficult combinations for spare.
However, where the break is an ordi
nary one it is advisable to take a chance
at the spare, but one will find that the
man with the high average for week
after week of bowling is the man who
buys up every pin and not the man who
is after skyrocket shots continually with
his second ball.
The hit that all men naturally desire
to make is a stiike, and that invariably
can only be made with a perfect ball.
For a right-handed bowler to make the
perfect hit he should hit the No. 1 pin
about on the quarter from which it will

will get 6. For 7-6-10 hit G thin ; for 5-7
hit light on right side of 5 and it will
slide.
With a 3-8 break, carom off 3 and the
ball gets 8, or hit fairly full on 3 and the
pin will get 8. The latter is the safest
way, for on candles a good carom is sel
dom secured. Against 1-4-7 the 1 pin
should be hit on the outside and the pin
will slide and hit 4.
A hard spare is 2-4-7-5-8 and must be
hit as one would for a strike, between' 2
and 4. For 2-4-5-7-8 the 2 pin must be hit
thin between 2 and 4. The ball takes
2-4-7-8 while the 2 pin gets 5 and 10.
When it is 2-4-7-10 the shot is the same
for the 2 pin will get the 10.
Two noted breaks are the half and
full Worcester., The half is with either
the 2 and 8 or the 3 and 9 pins out. The
full Worcester has both combinations
out. When 2-8 are out, hit between 1
and 3, hitting one on about the quarter.
