     "Sweety" was a little more active tonight than she has been lately getting started in game three with J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast. She didn't stay there long as "Old # 1" Martin Hellberg took her away in his game four. Still no long rest as Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest grabbed her away in her game five just managing to touch her when our guest Don Brooks  yelled for her. She decided that was enough movement and she stayed there until the end
of the evening so he could collect the $14.00.

 

EVENT HAPPENINGS 

 

         Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest was on a hot streak tonight going for a Grand Slam winning her first six games but was stopped in her seventh by J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast  who lived up to his name. She came back to win her last two skunking "Trooper "Tom Varnell to complete her 17 Pt. 8 W 163 Spread  Card.

                 Don Brooks our guest this evening enjoyed a productive night skunking Pat "Driller" Jungmann, "Captain" Jack Stemmer, and J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast for his 15 Pt. 6 W 87 Spread Card and collecting second place money tonight.

   

                 Helen "The Hellion" Daniels lost only two games in the middle of her card completing it very nicely to turn in a 14 Pt. 7 W 91 Spread Card and collecting third place money tonight

                

              "Old # 1" Martin Hellberg  put together a string of five games after being skunked by "Bad Betty" Morehouse enabling him to take home fourth place cash tonight with his 12 Pt. 6 W 33 Spread Card.

 

                   "Bad Betty" Morehouse  wasn't able to put together any kind of a winning streak tonight but still managed to score points with her 12 Pt. 6 W 76 Spread Card.

SPECIAL POOLS

 

          "Bad Betty" Morehouse found the Wheel tonight in her first game and also in her last game but was only able to collect once so that leaves just the Raggedy Ann and 23 Hands open.

 

  28/29  POOL

 

       Only one attempt was made at draining the pool tonight. Helen "The Hellion" Daniels in her game eight with a J and three 5's cutting a 10 for no help. So the pool now stands at $450.00

after the sixteenth night of the season.

 

 Skunk Fund


        The skunk fund  fared much better tonight.  It received  $2.50 by the end of the evening.   WE STILL THANK ALL OF YOU!!
