THE COUMERJOURNAL, LOUISVILLE, SUNDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 21, 1958 0 LING SPORTS Contest Winner Getting Itchy' Grccnwcll Says He 'Can't Wait' To Get lo New Orleans, Sugar Bowl By BILL SURFACE It took a bit of luck for sports-loving Glenn Grecnwell to win The Courier-Journal's trip to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl. Once he unpacks his bags in the historic Louisiana city, he's going to stretch his luck a bit further. Grecnwell, who will leave Louisville by train December says he "can't wait to get to New Orleans. He's planning a heavy schedule since he wants to: 1.

"How about a lineup like this Shamrock McCarthy, Tommy Owen, Jimmy Spalding, Lou Frantz and Freddie Kramer, with Uazzie Kirchner as sixth man?" One and all agreed that Howe picked himself a great team of bowlers, possibly the greatest although there may be others who will disagree. Of the six men, four are still active New: -A T5 vSr Glenn Crecnwrll Leaves December 27 2.

"Why," asked one man, Tho King's Men The Courier Sporlsman Small Game Hunting Leads In Casualties "can't we establish our own Bowling Hall of Fame' for the Louisville area, patterned after the national 'Hall of Fame' in bowling and other sports as well?" Carl Krankcl, for one, was enthusiastic. "It's a fine idea," said Carl, newly elected president of the Quarter Century Bowling Association, a group that spans several generations of Louisville pinmen. "I'm going to start talking to others about it.

It's Water fowlers Last Twelve Masters Vie In Championship Meet By MERRILL DOWDEN With one of the strongest fields ever assembled in this country, the United States Championship Tournament is now under way in New York and will continue through January 5. At stake is the coveted Lessing J. Roscnwald trophy. Taking part are 12 masters and five international grandmasters. Bobby Fischer, the 15-year-old Brooklyn prodigy who acquired a grand mastership in Europe last summer, is defending champion.

His chief rival is Samuel Kcshcvsky, America's international ace who was runner-up in last year's Roscnwald. The annual business meeting of the Louisville Y.M.C.A. Chess Club will be held at 3 p.m. Saturday in the clubroom at the 'Y," Third and Broadway, R. V.

SO CLOSE, SO CLOSE Warren Kricl, the small-sized southpaw who has been bowling 15 of his 32 years, keeps hitting By BURT MONROE It may be more dangerous to go rabbit hunting than to stalk deer. That is one of the strange and startling facts brought out in the 1938 Uniform Hunter Casualty Report issued by the National Rifle Association of America. It's based on data gathered from conservation authorities of thirty-three States and two Canadian Provinces.

Rabbit hunters made up 27 per cent of the casualty list while deer hunters totalled 23. Pheasant shooters ran third with 15 per cent just ahead of the squirrel shooters with 13. None of the other game sought furnished more than 5 per cent. By far, the largest proportion of all casualties were in connection with hunting small game such as rabbits, squirrels, foxes, oppossums, raccoons, and woodchucks. Big game such as deer, antelope, bear, bobcat, elk, javelina and moose tied with land birds such as pheasant, quail, part Jimmy Brown Browns Got Him Via Flip Coin FJi cussed will be the 1953 State Chess Tournament, to be staged here sometime next spring.

Warren, this season, is rolling the best of his career, averaging a shade over 200 in the Classic League at Western. In the Classic, he's had games of 298 and 287 and, in the Three-Man Masters League at Eden Lanes, another 288 (plus a 721 series in the Classic) An even more interesting "success" story is that of Rich Heil. Rich, who averaged 177 last season, has been in a slump this winter, but he broke out of it with a big 290 game in the E. R. Church League at Cane Run Lanes last week.

A spare in the first frame wrecked 300 thoughts, but he finished with 11 strikes in a row (and a 614 series).

Tic Impossible In Today's Pro Playoff Game By BILL SURFACE Cleveland "coinman" Mike came in waterfowl hunting of ducks, geese and coots. Each type of hunting had its own types of casualties. For example, over half of the accidents that occurred in hunting land birds took place in either of two circumstances: the victim was out of sight of the shooter, or the victim was covered by the shooter swinging on game.

The second of these was the frequent cause in waterfowl hunting. In hunting big game, however, the greatest danger laid in being mistaken for the game itself. Many Veterans Involved In Accidents Almost half of all casualties involved shooters with over five years' experience.

Age and experience, it seems, make some difference.

Casualties involving the young and inexperienced hunter are more likely to result from unintentional discharge of the weapon; those involving the older and the more experienced, from intentional discharge. The latter has learned to avoid discharging his weapon through excitement or gross carelessncs, so that when he does cause a casualty it is due mainly to the fact that his victim was out of sight or was mistaken for game. Swinging on the victim also caused some casualties as did ricocheting bullets. JT'irowtU (Black) hasn't been one since the rule was adopted in 1946.

Kentucky has been blessed with comparatively few hunting casualties, having finished its second gun deer season without any reports.

And its bowhunters appear to be an unusually careful group. But there is always the chance that a hunter can become a mere statistic. Blasting Road Signs Bad Practice Shotgun blast and bullet damage to vital road signs during hunting season is a perennial headache to highway and traffic authorities. It has been estimated that 350,000 signs a year are destroyed by firearms and other wanton methods at a cost to taxpayer of around $1,400,000. Replacement or repair of these vandalized signs requires yearly about 350,000 man-hours.

Drivers pay a price for this destruction of the only guides they have to help them avoid danger and death on the road. Though moi'ern, reflective signs the kind that show up at night in auto headlights can be seen even when shot full of holes, the ctfectivt-nes is reduced. The final effort lo end sign shooting must come from hunters themselves. They must recognize that a bullet hole in a road sign is as effective way to kill a driver as one between his eyes.
