Another interesting item from
ABC headquarters tells of the
"impossible" happening in Detroit
last month when a member of the
Grand Central League knocked the
i 3-pin out of the 3-5-6 cluster with-
out disturbing the other two
sticks. For those unfamiliar with
the position of the pins, this is
how the aforementioned cluster

The only plausible answer is
that the bowler's ball must have
hooked terrifically, barely nick-
ing the 3-pin on the left side and
then curving so sharply it missed
the 5-pin, But it's one of those
achievements as rare in bowling
as picking the 7-10 split.
* * *
Right here at home an odd one
pops up occasionally which makes
one wonder where either the ball
or the other five pins went to
reach the pit. Percy Funk with
his lefthanded hook gets it morel
often than the rest of the town's
bowlers put together, and every
once-in-a-while he'll get it a cou-
ple of. times in the same match.
Anyway, its the 4-7-6-9-10 clus-
ter, which looks like this and
seems to be an "impossible" re-

You cau 'see there is room for
the ball to sneak through between
the 4 and 9 pins, but how the
1, 2, 3, and 5 pins get out without
clipping a couple of the three-pin
cluster on the right there is the
mystery.
/nd one final bowling note:
Chet Smith, 37-year-old paint
contractor, is creating a world's
record this year by bowling in 11
diffe]'ent leagues each week. He
does it and still has a night a
week free of bowling, too. His
schedule is 11 a.m. and 8:30 p.m.
Sundays, 9:30 p.m. Monday, 1, 8
and 10 p.m. Tuesdays, 11:30 a.m.

Three individual scores crept in-
to the two figure bracket for the
first time, Cotton SalisbmT's 11
for Rayonier being best of the
season to date. Norm Cliflin of
McCleary and Carl Sundsten of
Morgan-Eacrett each hit ten.
McConkey's victory was the
thriller of the night, the pharm-

the final quarter to overtake Ray-

Pat Smith netted seven points in

The Allyn Community Sunday
School presented a very lovely
Christmas program Sunday eve-
ning. Rev. Lyle Brasier gave a
short Christmas message after
which treats were given .to ev-
eryone.
The Allyn Community Club met
on December 10 for their regular
monthly meeting and this time
they enjoyed a very delicious tur-
key dinner. Among other busi-
ness, several subjects of interest
to the community came up for
discussion. New officers for the
coming year were nominated but
because of the lateness of the hour
and the absence of several mem-
bers, voting was postponed until
the next regular meeting on Jan-
uary 14.
Jean Uber Of Bremerton spent
the past week visiting with Es-
ther Woodard.
We are glad to have Andrew
Daniclson home agaifi after being

The Christmas school program
was given last Thursday evening
to a pleased audience. The set-
ting for the "Christmas Story"
was beautiful and the children
did marvelously well, The teach-
ors, Mrs. Ruth Hawk and Mrs.
Della Earthman, deserve much
praise for their efforts. Cndy
and other treats were given to all
the children.
iV[aureen, and Jimmie Knight
visited with their mother over last
week end.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Mero of
Montesano visited with Mr. and
Mrs. Howard Woodard over the

off when the house is empty, or
tenanted only by children. And,
once a tree's needles begin to dry,
it should be at once removed from
the building. Going a. step far-
ther, we have several winter
months still ahead of us, and con-
stant vigilance is the price of fire
protection. Heating plants and
lighting facilities are used to their
maximum and may be overloaded.
Chimneys may be a .source of
trouble. This is the time for the 1
householder, like the business-
owner, to learn and strictly apply
the simple rules for fire safety.
S Mr. and Mrs. Shelton sit
around the Christmas tree,
with their children and grandchil-
dren gathered With them, they can
contemplate the year's parade with
a spirit of gratefulness for the
things that have been received as
blessings, and a hope that Santa
Claus will be as kindly and boun-
tiful to the community next year.
For surely this area has enjoyed
most of the earth's largess at a
time when most of the world is
in abject dejection from the Four
Horsemen that mark war's after-
mth. To this area has been be-
stowed the fruits of labor and busi-
ness. Our institutions have pro-
gressed and prospered and each
of us in our way has given individ-
ual contribution so that the suffer-
ing to others might be lessened.
The community and its affairs
have gotten along with good rela-
tion, no internal squabble has
arisen to disrupt or separate spir-
itual and civic forces that mean
so much to all of us, and the forces
of nature have been kindly in that
no elemental disaster has visited
to bring destruction and suffering
to our people. Shelton along with
the entire Northwest country lives
in a part o£ the world with won-
derful endowments of nature, pro-
viding natural products for our
livelihood and scenes and atmos-
phere for our pleasure and enjoy-
ment.
T is comforting to look to the
future when our blessings are
considered. Industrially Shelton
has progressed by leaps 'and
bounds with leaders of our big in-
'.erests working toward perfeetion
"dr, program that will continue
uninterrupted, organizations that
will assure a conUnued and sus-
taining means of employment and
livelihood for many of our citizms.
All of us are dependent upon what
comes out of our woods, for the
products of the forest, transformed
by the process of research and
experimentation, forms the foun-
dation of our economy. What
comes from Mason county and
adjacent areas ifi turned into ar-
ticles of use for peoples every-
where, bringing to them convert-
