Page Two THE GREENE COUNTY GUARDIAN Jamestown, Ohio December 13,1956 VOWS SHE’LL BE TOUGHER NEXT YEAR Martha Haines, 16 th in Nation, Back Home By JIM GATTEN M in Number 16 th i n d i e nation r o l l e d b a c k into Jamestown Monday, stopped for a cup of coffee and was off rolling again i n league competition Tuesday night at Community Bowling lanes in Xenia. Pretty Miss Martha Haines, visibly impressed by rubbing elbows with the nation's fine* est women bowlers, appeared not fully impreued with, the idea that she, herself, now is numbered a mo n g the best distaff keglers in the land. Fifty-six games of champ­ ionship bowling and uncount­ ed hand-shakings, she admit­ ted, left that right upper limp nearly limp. Bu t she went right back 'to the campaign of the 12 - pound sphere and admits she's already knuck­ ling down to winning a spot in the n a tio n 's finals again next year. Martha started her champ­ ionship j a u n t as oneof two Xenia area wome n bowlers sponsored by C o m m u n i t y Bowling, In c ., to local elim ­ ination in Dayton. Ann Paul, herlanemate, failed to make the elimination trials. ButMartha was right up there as tops in die D a y t o n area and won a trip to the nation- al finals in C h i c ago under sponsorship of t h e Bowling Alley Proprietors 'Association She q u a l i f i e d 14th In the n a t i o n before match play opened. She finished 16th in the nation. And i t took a steady average of just under 184 to do it. That's far and goneover the heads of m o s t males here­ abouts- -including die writer. Little Miss Martha, known for her flashy s m i l e and easy­ going manner,was o n e o f the physically smallest con­ testants in the national fin­ als. She, in fact, is one of the smallest g a l s ever to make die national e l i m i n a t i o n bouts this year or any other year. The daughterofjamestowns Dr. R. L. Haines carries an average of 175 in local league c omp e t i t i o n . She soared nearly 10 pins over her aver­ age on the n a t i o nal effort and vows she'd b e tougher competition if given another chance. After her n i n e days in the Windy City--which resulted inher winning atotal o f$ 1 3 0 ($30 for qualifying number 14th and $100 fo r finishing 1 6 t h ) - - s h e declares the country's top a l l e y addicts are some of die nicest people you'd want to known-most of them, anyhow. She commended the other national f i n a 1 i sts on their sportsmanship and courtesy throughout the tournament, nomatter how rough the go­ ing got. Martha a c t u a lly returned from Chicago Monday night and was up and ready to go bowling Tuesday night. She got back into the local swing and slide routine immediate- ately. Now, with the glitter of na­ tional c o m p e t ition folded under die calendar, MissMar- t h a t i s b a c k a t t he several- nights-a-week lane lampoon­ ing and sharpening up for a- nother year and another shot at the national title. MARTHA HAINES . . . aiming further Bowersville NuzzlesPort William1-Up Bowersville Jefferson staged a fourth-period splurge Tue­ sday night at Porrt sday night at Po r t William which dropped the Potsters 62-61. Bob Marshall racked up 22 points to lead die Tiger scor­ ing attack. He was instrumen­ tal in sparking the last-ditch retrieve. Jefferson led at die half 31- 28 but dropped to the short end of a 48-42 third-period score before Me r a b a ll and company blew warm. N i el Gustafson, of course, a id ed the Tiger cause with his us­ ual high polnt$roductlon. He socked in 17. Flashy Donnie Fields of Port William collected 24 poina- -and that was one of his low­ est efforts of die current cam ­ paign. Jefferson's reserve crew also won a tight one, downing die Port seconds 26-25. Other Bowersville scoring in­ cluded Guthrie, 7; Heinem 6;Brown, 6; Williams, 4. Greeneview Trims Cedarville High by 67 -47 ; Franklin Leads Rams’ Scoring G r e e n e view waltzed past Cedarville 67-48 for the third- Ram victory and sixth Indian setback Friday night. This time it was Jack Faulk­ ner who led Coach Fred Long 1 surging Rams to t r i u mp h . Jerry Hill c h i p p e d in with his usual high scoring effort, running a total of 20 points against Cedarville. The Indians, t a k i n g their lumps in big doses this year, were never in the race after the first period. Franklin, Hill and company moved out to a 16-10 lead at the end of the o p e n i n g frame. By halftime, the Rams held a 34-22 e d g e . At the end of the third period, the m a r g i n was 46-30 for the Jamestown crew. Peterson p a c e d the Indian scoring with 19 points. Other Cedarville scoring was scat­ tered but no s i n g 1e player waxed hot e n o u g h to melt the advantage taken by scor­ ing of F r a n k l i n and Hi l l . Then, of course, there were the points posted by Howard to keep Long's league hopes soaring. G r e e n e view jiow boasts a 3-2 com pi 1a t i o n for the y ou n g season while Cedar­ ville is weltering in 1-6 po­ sition.

Nine times n a t i o n a l champion, the team is composed of Buzz F a z i o , Lee Jouglard, Tony L i n d e m a n , Bob Brayman, G e o r g e Howard and Harry Smith. Foul shooting played an im ­ portant role in T u e s d a y ' s loss by G r e e n evlew to the powerful Simon Kenton out­ fit. The Rams rfell by a 63- 43 margin. And one of die b ig points was the fact that th e Rams garnered only s e v e n points horn the foul line while the Ken ton teers plopped in 21 from die charity circle. That e v e n e d Coach Fred Long's record at 3 - 3 for the season with a s i n g l e game left b e f o r e going into the Greene County League fracas.
