In a bowling discussion, Shang explains players switch left of the alley to apply reverse or backup English to hit the six and ten pins more easily. Skang and Otto Stein note few big timers use this technique, which directs the ball along the left side and into pins from the center, avoiding gutter risk with a regular hook. An oil test well fire near Arkansas City was extinguished with water after spreading in the 2900 foot hole on the W. G. Burrington farm.
