Managers At Local Lanes Have Lengthy Credentials
Bowling column profiles local lane managers and champions. Bill Manning, past Maine state champ 1927–30 and 1936, notes modern equipment elevates scores by about 100 pins per 10 strings. Al Huot, Roll-A-Way Lanes manager, Western Maine champ 1962–63, once went seven title defenses with high 1,289 for 10 strings. Nick Gillis, 20th Century Lanes manager, four-time state champ, Western Maine titlist, and former world mixed doubles champ, recalls 1950s–60s dominance and evolving rules under Maine State Bowling Association oversight.
