Women Bowlers Change Bowling World Says Dennis Sweeney
Dennis Sweeney celebrated his 50th birthday in St Louis and described how women revolutionized bowling. He founded a league that grew from 10 members to a major force, noting how female bowlers helped the sport become a major activity rather than a male preserve. The Hollywood Stars led Western Professional Bowling League week two, with Encino and Redondo Beach also strong, as over $146,000 in prizes returned to the bowling economy and 4,700 checks mailed for California State Men’s Championships.
