On New Year’sDay at our house we were sitting on the very edges of chairs-trying to root Wisconsin to an upset victory over the University of Southern California in the-Rose Bowl game.

Bill Jones bowled a total of 2703. Bob Weeks 2630 and Bill Jackson 2553. Turning from hunting to ice ï¬shing Mr. Tucker re- ports that the ice on Peffer- law Bay. Lake Simcoe. varies from six inches to 10 inches. However on the lake proper it is only one inch to six inches thick. There are a few ice huts on“ shore and her- ring and perch are béing caught. Hut operators will not be moving their huts out on the lake proper until the ice is at least a foot thick. The betting amongst the bowling fraternity is that the 2978 will stand up throughout the tourney and that Tim Saul will be the winner of the big buck. And it looks like they could be so right!
