Pin Topplers

U. S. men are better bowlers than U. S. women. Quite conclusively was this demonstrated last week when the Women's International Bowling Congress, No. 1 tournament for women, wound up its 26-day session three days after the adjournment of the 58-day American Bowling Congress, No. 1 tournament for men.

Best singles score among the 1,500 lady bowlers: 626 (for three games), rolled by Detroit's Helen Hengstler. Best singles score among the 7,000 male pin-topplers: 730, chalked up by 59-year-old James Danek of Forest Park, Ill. Other congressional high marks: women's doubles, 1,130; men's doubles, 1,405; five-woman team, 2,618; five-man team, 3,151; women's all-events, 1,724; men's all-events, 2,028. Top-notch women bowlers use the 16-lb. ball, same as men.
