ARLINGTON, Texas - Bowling

continued its growth as a high

year, according to the most recent

National Federation of State High

survey.

With more than 51,000 students

2 SPORTS REPORTER October 21 - 27, 2009

Thanksgiving Day has been

known as turkey day for cen-

turies. And "turkey" remains

the most used term in bowling,

as it has been for close to a

century. A "turkey" in bowl-

ing is three strikes in a row.

There is no such designation

for any other amount of

strikes. They are simply

known as doubles, four or five

or whatever number timers or

baggers.

The question I receive most

often, and always has been is

how “turkey” became such a

permanent part of bowling

jargon and its origin.

In the early days of bowling,

and well into the 1940s, most

bowling centers conducted

special holiday tournaments,

prior to Thanksgiving,

Christmas and Easter.

They were usually one or two

game events at a modest entry

fee, and the prizes were

unique, ranging from gold

coins to baskets of groceries to

hams, chickens, ducks and of

course turkeys, and in the

early days, you could even

pick out your poultry, still

alive, at the nearest meat mar-

ket.

In order to increase the num-

ber of entries, the tournament

promoters put down very diffi-

cult lane scoring conditions,

and to give the contestants a

try at an extra bonus, they

offered a turkey to any bowler

who could rack up three

strikes in a row.

So, whenever a bowler rolled

three strikes, the other

bowlers or spectators would

yell, "That's a turkey." And

the term "turkey" for three

strikes became standard.

Two other famous terms are

"Brooklyn" and "Jersey"---

still used universally. The 1-3

pocket is the accepted spot for

a strike by a right-handed

bowler and the 1-2 for lefties.

If you score a strike by going

to the opposite side it is a

crossover.

There was great competition

between New Jersey and

Brooklyn bowlers as far back

as the 1890s and in derision of

a crossover strike the

Brooklyn bowlers called it a

Jersey hit and the Garden

Staters named it a Brooklyn.

Even the earlier term of

crossover came about because

the headpin was the focal

point and cited as the Hudson

River, so when a New Jersey

bowler scored an errant strike

it was described as going

across the river, and the same

was true of the Brooklyn

bowler who hit the wrong

pocket.

One reader asked what a

chicken was in bowling. I

never heard it used but would

think that maybe it would be a

double strike, a success a little

less than a turkey.

It takes a long time for any

term to be established in any

sport but once accepted they

become a part of the game.

And "turkey" has long taken

its place.

Proof of that is that most

automatic scoring machines

emphasize three strikes in a

row by having a turkey pop up

on the scoring screen.

Continuing its climb The number of high school bowlers has more than doubled since the start of the

decade and the sport has shown double-digit growth in five of the last eight years, according to the

National Federation of State High School Associations.

J o a n Ta y l o r ’s Te n P i n R a p . . . . Johnson & Johnson:

Another Reason to Attend

The ECBCC Nov. 1 - 4 Steve Johnson and Bob Johnson will be there!Come meet Bowling Proprietors Association of America’s (BPAA)

new executive director, Steve Johnson as he shares his vision for the

association and outlook on the bowling industry, in general.

Bob Johnson will tell you 10 Ways Bars Lose Money.

From Bob Johnson’s more than 40 years of consulting work with over

500 clients, hear first hand about the many ways your bowling center bar

is probably losing money – or is not making the profit it should be! Stop

the bleeding! This seminar is guaranteed to improve your bottom line.

The subject of a recent e-mail was “Pancoast 300.”

Another 300 for Steve? He has well over 50 of them

(54 to be exact), so what was the big deal? It was a first

300 at that, and it was for Steve’s son, Andrew, 23.

Talk about a gene pool!

Andrew is a veteran of the game, having bowled for

17 years. This lefthander started in junior leagues at

Circle Lanes, then at Oakwood Lanes. His father

coached him, in addition to Jeff Frye and Jeff

Petrocorro and “a little bit of everybody.” He bested

his previous high of 288, which he shot the Thursday

before his perfecto.

He was subbing in the Monday Night Triples league

and rolled 227-259-300 for a 786. The kicker is that he

used an old Track Voodoo ball fitted by Mike Byrne

“because it works. I tried using a more aggressive ball,

but it hooked too much.” He was more nervous on the

tenth and eleventh shots, but by the twelfth he just felt

like it was time. He dedicated his big game to “my dad

because he wasn’t there to see it.” Andrew bowls in

one league but enjoys subbing in three others.

His mother, Melanie almost saw perfection herself

some years ago when she had the first eleven strikes.

But she missed the headpin on the final ball and hit

298. Steve said, “You’re supposed to hit the headpin”

and Melanie responded, “Not when your shoes weigh

20 pounds!”

Andrew would like to next post an 800 series. He

resides in Hackettstown and is attending Centenary

College, studying to be a math teacher.

The Morris County Women’s 600 Club Tournament

will run its 7th annual Doubles No Tap and 42nd

Annual Singles tournament at Sparta Lanes, 43

Theatre Center Drive, Sparta (973-729-6135) on

Sunday November 8th. This will be a handicap tourna-

ment with A (176 and higher) and B (175 and over)

divisions. The singles event will be three games imme-

diately followed by three “no tap” doubles games. At

least one member of the doubles team must be a 600

Club member. Entry fee in each event is $26 per per-

son. Deadline for entries is October 31. Entries must

be mailed to Carol Chadwick, Tournament Manager,

134 Dartmouth Trail, Hopatcong, NJ 07843-1153 or

call 973-398-2198 for more information.

Congratulations to Steven Haneveld, 17, who rolled

his eighth 800 series.

The Coaches’ Corner Bowling Clinic will be held on

Sunday, November 1 at 9 a.m. at Madison Plaza Lanes

300 Main Street, Madison. The fee is only $7. Bowlers

will be assigned to lanes based on average and skill

level. Each will receive one hour of instruction on the

lanes with local bowling instructors (two games). A

discounted copy of the USBC Coaching Guide will be

available. Deadline to enter the clinic is October 29.
