He booked a reservation and checked his baggage, but after holding the plane up for two hours demanded his luggage back and disappeared from New York's Kennedy International Airport. if- NEW YORK (UPI)-Paula Sperber, 21, was born to be a champion in sports. Ever since the leggy blonde from Miami can remember, she competed in every sport-swimming, paddle ball, golf, touch football, baseball, soft-ball, bowling.

"Our family always had some sport going," she said. When Miss Sperber settled down to excel at one, it was bowling. First she racked up championships in Miami at the end of the 1960s, took the Florida Open in 1971, then went on to win the U.S. Open in 1971 and the title "Woman Bowler of the Year," which the U.S. Bowling Writers Association handed her.

She joined the Professional Women Bowlers Association tour in 1970 and it wasn't long until AMF Bowling Products spotted her talents, signed her to a long-term contract for personal appearances, clinics and exhibition games, and turned her earnings from mere pin money into a lucrative $15,000 a year with expenses. She earns extras for her tournament appearances. "Lucrative yes," she said of her AMF affiliation, "but I've really been travelling so much I've had no time to plan investing. I just sock it in the bank." Travel time consumed has included two trips to Japan, where she said bowling is a whole new craze. "You'd see people at bowling; places at six in the morning," she said.

"I taught clinics in sign language." Back here to resume domestic appearances, the bowling champ sat down to talk about the sport. "There are an estimated 52 million she said. "About 50 per cent are women. We have more women bowling than in tennis and golf combined. It's a family sport.

There are housewives' leagues, men's leagues, bantam leagues, junior leagues, senior citizens leagues. "I guess the only sport that passes bowling is fishing." Miss Sperber said bowling keeps one fit, disciplines both mind and body, but concedes that for pure exercise "I doubt if anything is any better than swimming." To any woman worried about developing bulging muscles, Miss "Sperber said forget it. The average bowler isn't on the lanes that constantly. In her case, however, her left arm (bowling arm) has grown slightly larger than the right. "Mother makes most of my clothes," she said, "so it's no problem." Miss Sperber is one of three daughters of a Miami manager of an electronics firm.

The whole family bowls, she said, "although I think that recently they've spent more time watching me." Her tournament average this year is running around 201, up from last year's 198. What of the future? Well, she said, some professionals go right on into their 40s, even 50s. But one day, she plans to return to school. She had finished one year at Dade College when AMF hired her.
