     "Sweety"  got more exercise tonight  starting with game one and "Old # 1" Martin Hellberg calling out for her. She rested on his scooter until game five when Brad "Young" Taylor took her for a short visit. Then she really hopped around visiting three different persons in the space of one game six.  Pat "Driller" Jungmann grabbed her and hardly had any time before  Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest snatched her away and in the very next instant J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast stole her and that is where she sat until
Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest stole her back in game nine to collect the $14.00 at the end of the evening.

 

EVENT HAPPENINGS 

 

           Dick "The Grumbler" Taylor  had a very prosperous evening skunking "Bad Betty" Morehouse and  "Old # 1" Martin Hellberg losing only to Helen "The Hellion" Daniels and "Farmer" Jim Harpe  winning his last three games to complete his 16 Pt. 7 W 87 Spread Card for first place money.

He won his next two  before being stopped again by John "Rotten" Reed. He finished off with a win for his 14 Pt. 7 W 73 Spread Card and second place money.

 

     "Captain" Jack Stemmer had a bad start losing three of his first four games but did put together his final five in a row skunking Brad "Young" Taylor and Helen "The Hellion" Daniels  in his last two games to complete his 14 Pt. 6 W 105 Spread Card for third place money and share a tie for fourth place in the club points race.                                       

               Brad "Young" Taylor also started by losing his first two games, but managed to skunk Mike "Mr Quiznos" Clapper in game three and later on also did it to "Saweet Johnny" Hensley in             collecting his 14 Pt. 6 W 67 Spread Card and winning his last one for fourth place money.

 

                John "Rotten" Reed added more points to his total score by finishing out of the money with a 12 Pt. 6 W 22 Spread card.
