Editors Quiz on- SPORTS THE-DUTCH BOWLING ON "BOWLIK1G GREEN" QUESTION: When did bowling originate? ANSWER: Bowling has become one of the most important sports in our country, perhaps because just about everyone in the family can get in on it, except the now he's being taken care of too, for many of the bowling "lanes," as bowling places are called, provide free baby sitting. Itis said that there are 134,000 lane's in operation in America. How did this happen? When the Dutch settled in New York in 1626 they brought old world customs with them, and one of these was bowling. A strip of grass near the foot of Manhattan Island was reserved as a bowling green, and it is still called "Bowling Green" today.

But neither the Dutch nor the Germans invented bowling, for we find a game like this was being played in England in the year 1100. Did the English originate it. then? Wrong again. To find the first record of a game like this, we must go back to the ancient days of Egypt, about 5000 years before the birth of Christ. So, you see, bowling has passed it's 7000th birthday! FOR YOU TO DO: Bowling must be a great deal of fun, or It wouldn't be 7000 years old.

Try it yourself and you'll find out where the thrill is.
