     "Sweety" was a lot  more active this week, starting off with "Bad" Betty Morehouse taking her in her game one. Also in game one J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast

 took her for a little while until John "Rotten" Reed decided to try and collect the money for Sweety in his game two. That lasted until game five when our Montana visitor  Rex Paddock claimed her giving her a rest until game eight when Pat "Driller" Jungmann took her away. Shortly thereafter though Dick "The Grumbler" Taylor in his game eight wrapped her up to collect the $14.00 for the evening.

 

EVENT HAPPENINGS

                                                                                                                                                                                     

          Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest started off  the evening winning her first  game against  a guest and former member Michelle but then managed to get skunked by  Pat "Driller" Jungmann in her second game and skunked again in her fifth game by  "Trooper" Tom Varnell which were her only two losses of the evening to take first place with a 15 Pts. 9 W 81 Spread card.

 

          John "Rotten" Reed came in second again this week this time with a  13 Pts. 6 W 51 Spread card. He won his first four games skunking "Saweet" Johnny Hensley along the way but then was skunked by Michelle in game five but recovered and won two of his  last four games.

                     

      "Bad" Betty Morehouse climbed back into the win column finishing third with her 12 Pt. 6 W -24 Spread card. She survived the evening avoiding the Skunk can but winning by not enough to avoid a negative spread card.

     

       Rex Paddock acquired the last cash place this evening but no points coming in fourth with an 11 Pt. 5 W 29 Spread card skunking "Trooper" Tom Varnell  and winning three of his last four games by identical scores of 10 points for each one.

          "Bad" Betty Morehouse twice attempted to drain the pool tonight holding  a J and 3 5's both times  cutting a Q in her second game and a nine in her fifth game for no help either time. Shirley "Buzz Saw" Guest tried it in her game four with 3 5's and a face card cutting a 6 for no help. The pool now stands at $172.00.
