TQJSQKA . . Rev. Brother Bartholomew and Rev. Brother Alfred check the individual scores for the Varsity and the J. V. Keglers Drop in League Standings In the T959 season the Keglers dropped in league standings. The opposition was strong and com- petition keen during each of the ten league matches. Although finishing in the cellar for the first time in many years the Varsity did produce some stal- warths during the year. Tony Barrese, John Luongo, and Sal Venezia were three such individuals who proved their potentials while bowling with the Lions. Although finishing in the cellar the team was in there fighting in every contest to the very end. Brother Bartholomew's Junior Varsity Keglers fin- ished fourth in league competition and gave the school high hopes for the future. Tremendous team spirit was displayed by all the members of the team during the season, and Brother Bartholomew is con- fident that the team will place high in the standings in the future. VARSITY TEAM: Kneeling: Joseph Spina, Dennis Spano. Standing: Robert Valentine, John Downes, Vincent Paolella, Peter Hogan, Francis Monzo.
