102nd Annual Jess Dodd Endurance Contest

Polanskyj-Murray Repeat as Endurance Champs

Boh Polanskyj and Jimmy Murray combined to roll 2352 with handicaps and win their second straight Jess Dodd Endurance Contest title yesterday.

John Hartinger (1240) took home the Conover Trophy for high individual series with handicap, his second encounter with the hardware in six years. The 102nd Endurance, ably directed again by John Anderson, drew nine two-man teams who bowled three games, ate club pizza and uncorked another three.

Bob Critides presaged tomorrow’s end-of-the-world storm when he sunk to third place from the usual runner-up spot he has occupied after multiple past Endurance, Melville and Turkey Shoot starts. He and John Wisniewski were nosed out for second in by Hartinger and Don Henry.
