WORKING IN OMAHA
Date: January 3, 1960
The Civic Auditorium in Omaha, Nebraska, underwent extensive preparations for the 1960 BPAA All-Star Tournament. These dedicated workers readied the lanes for 240 men and 96 women competing to secure the national match-game championship in their respective divisions. Sylvia Wene claimed victory in the women’s division, defeating Marion Ladewig by a mere 38 pins, while Harry Smith emerged as the men’s division champion by a slim margin of only 37 pins over Bob Chase, with a total of 13,599 pins.
