Betty lived her 90 years to the fullest with her award winning Archery skills in the 1960's, her bowling in the 1970's which was still a topic of many conversations and of course her lifelong love for crafts and cooking. She made everything . Betty was very talented and much loved.
Betty is predeceased by her husband of 66 years, Walter "Odie" Kello, cherished son Tommy Kello and grandson-in-law Ryan Williams. Betty is survived by her son William and his wife Lori, granddaughter Kelley Kello Williams, Grandson Andrew Kello, sister Joan Hixenbaugh and two great granddaughters, Adalyn and Billie Williams.
At Betty's request, there will be no service. The family will have a celebration of life at a later date.
Betty held religion close to her heart and the family would like to thank her friends at Atlantic Shores Baptist Church for the love and friendship they shared with Betty and the happiness that you brought to her.

CONGRATULATIONS Lisa Huber and Bernie Hipkins!!! And Congratulations to everyone who earned this prestigious honor! We appreciate the hard work and dedication that it takes to claim a spot on this list. Thank you for your continued support of this wonderful sport!!!
The Oscar, Emmy, Davis Cup, Cy Young Award, Heisman Trophy, and the America’s Cup all acknowledge the best! So, too, the NDBC NATIONAL TROPHY is the Duckpin Bowler’s way of recognizing their best . . . their #1 Duckpinners!!! Since 1928, the highest achievement in Duckpin Bowling has been to be named the top ranked bowler. Each year for many decades, one male and one female bowler have been ranked as #1. To reach this pinnacle bowlers must demonstrate the outstanding duckpin bowling skills which culminate their years of practice and hard work. Annually for almost a century, the National Duckpin Bowling Congress has honored each of the #1 bowlers. They are currently awarded a hand-crafted, custom-created, blown glass trophy in recognition of their achievement. The names of these two bowlers are added to, and become a permanent part of, the National Trophy display.

On May 16th, the 90th Annual NDBC National Tournament went into the record books. A huge vote of thanks to everyone who took the time to participate in this annual event. It is our hope that a good time was enjoyed by all!
The NDBC Board of Directors gratefully appreciates the efforts made to ensure the success of this historic tournament. When Montgomery County’s COVID regulations made it impossible for White Oak to hold the event, John Dunker, Chris Roth, and Rick Tydings of Glen Burnie Bowl stepped up and hosted this event! The able direction of Tournament Director, Frank Wilson, and the friendly, exemplary service of DeAnna Rhine and the GBB staff kept the event running smoothly from start to finish.
A complete breakdown of the bowlers who participated and where they finished, can be found at the link below. Checks were mailed to the winners last week.

The NDBC sadly reports that Connecticut lost another Hall of Famer yesterday, George "Buddy" Kaeser. It always tugs at the heart strings to lose another one of our greats!
If you get a chance, go to REMEMBERING ALL OF THE DUCKPIN BOWLING CENTERS PAST AND PRESENT and look at the video of the Greenway East 1988 DBPA Tour!
Condolences to his family, our thoughts and prayers are with you. He will be missed!
April 6, 2021
It is with the deepest sorrow that we announce the passing of Jeff Pyles, a true duckpin legend. Fifteen times Number #1 bowler, the holder of 9 World Records and a tournament in named in his honor, his skill was only surpassed by his outgoing personality and unconditional acceptance of people. His loss leaves a huge hole in the duckpin community.
Heartfelt condolences go out to his wife Debbie, his children, and his grandchildren. You are in our thoughts and prayers. May he rest in eternal peace and light!
March 17, 2021

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Dick Westlake. Although the following article from "North American Bowling" highlights the caliber of his skill, it neglects to mention what a really super person he was. Rest in peace, Dick, you will be missed.
"Unquestionably considered one of the all-time greats. Like the old great muscle cars, Dick Westlake's bowling career is another of the introduced in the decade of the 1960s. Westlake possessed one of the most devastating arm-swings in the history of bowling. Significant advances were made to aid in better scoring for duckpins, primarily in the fall of 1976, but prior to this, Westlake was actually rolling '500' sets back in the early to mid 1970s when few people were doing it. In the early 1980s, Dick rolled one of the best single game efforts in the history of duckpins at Wheaton Triangle Lanes. After posting 2 magnificent games of 164 and 181, he started the 3rd game with a stunning 8 strikes in a row. 2/3rds of the way to the only perfect game opportunity ever for duckpins, Westlake rolled his 9th frame. Another pocket hit, but this time he left the 5-7 split. As if the 8-bagger weren't enough to highlight an already monumental escalating effort for the night, Dick slid the split for the conversion. In the 10th frame, he broke 9, made it, and counted 9 on his final ball for a 266 game as part of a landmark 611 set.
During the 1970s, Westlake won a pro tour in Richmond, VA. But he was also renown at the time for winning a much publicized TV match against long-time, top-ranked bowler, Jimmy Dietsch, in which Dick, needing a mark to win the tournament, left the dreaded 7-8 split in the final frame. With defeat eminent, Dick beat the odds, hitting the 8 pin flush, and bounced it out of the pit to knock over the 7. After the unlikely spare conversion, Westlake then counted the necessary amount to win the match. Given the fact that the lanes were geared for TV for Washington DC's old Channel 7 studio telecast, they were less than optimum scoring, even for the tougher conditions of the early 1970s, which makes the split conversion even more phenomenal.
In the early to mid 1990s, I bowled rubberband duckpins with Westlake at Zips Lanes in Johnstown, PA. Although, the scoring in this variation of duckpins is higher than conventional duckpins, it was still amazing to watch as Dick averaged 181 for 12 games.
Shown in this photo from an early DPBA program book, you almost need to do a double-take when examining Westlake's arm-swing. This is not a retouched or edited photo--this is his actual arc with the ball. Back then, he should have been known as "The Scorpion".

Attention All Bowlers and League Officers!!!!
For the 2020-21 bowling season, the NDBC Board of Directors has voted to continue all COVID policies and procedures put in place for last season.
The NDBC will recognize all sanctioned scores using variances in playing rules that are rolled while adhering to the COVID-19 requirements mandated by state or local governments. Only variances used to comply with these regulations will be recognized. The purpose of this action is to allow sanctioned leagues and tournaments more flexibility as they return to bowling.
To compensate for social distancing:
The use of a variance must be mutually agreed upon by the league, or the tournament director, and the proprietor prior to the start of the league match or tournament.
Any questions should be directed to the NDBC office at 410-636-2695 or to Laura Bowden at 301-254-1802 or executivedirector@ndbc.org.

ISadly on Saturday, July 11th, another NDBC Hall of Famer, Glenna Grimes passed away, Over her years in duckpins Glenna wore many hats and was beloved everywhere she went. She was a League Officer, an NDYA Coach, and Manager of Riviera Bowl - but mostly she was that lady with the infectious smile and an even bigger heart!
Please read her obituary and the particulars regarding visitation and service. In addition Glen Burnie Bowl and Jane Hudgins are working on a Celebration of Life. The details of that will be forthcoming.
We will all miss Glenna immensely!

It is with deep sadness the NDBC reports that John "Butch" Pryor, a true ambassador of duckpins, passed away on Sunday, June 29th. The Congress' thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Having been ranked numerous times and a part of several previous World Records, Butch was one of the Washington, D.C area's finest bowlers. He was a long-time member of the Greater Washington Duckpin Association's Standing Committee and an NDBC National Executive. During his more than 40 years of involvement in duckpins, he was a driving force behind league formation and retention in several bowling centers.
Butch's dedication and tireless efforts to preserve the sport of duckpin bowling in the Washington area will always be remembered. On June 9th, the NDBC Board of Directors voted unanimously to welcome him into the Hall of Fame for Meritorious Service.
We join with Suitland Bowl, his home center, when we say that we are truly heartbroken! A dear friend, an honorable man and a respected bowler, Butch will be sorely missed!
June 12, 2020
The NDBC Board of Directors met on Tuesday, June 9th to reach a decision regarding the 2019-20 National Rankings. Based on feedback received from a majority of the responding bowlers, a motion was made and unanimously approved to go forward with the rankings using 70% of the current requirements for total games, tournament games, league games and corresponding pinfall.
Thank you to everyone who voiced their opinion regarding the rankings and to those of you who took the time to speak up to your elected officials in favor of Maryland opening our bowling centers! Your help is appreciated and it seems to have worked!
Please keep your eyes open for announcements about leagues starting and tournaments being held. Our sport needs your help!!!!
Stay safe and Duckpin Strong!!

The COVID-19 virus has turned everyone’s world upside down!
One of the big issues staring the NDBC in the face is what to do about this year’s rankings? The obvious answer --- ask the bowlers!
So, the Board puts it to you. Should we go forward with this year’s rankings or do we cancel this year entirely? And if we go forward, how do we ensure fairness?
The leagues will be allowed to finish the season even after June 15th----that’s a start, but what about tournaments? There are many tournaments that have been forced to cancel and probably there will be more. So how do we handle it? The Board recommends a 25% reduction of the ranking requirements across the Board.
As a bowler, you tell us – email us at info@ndbc.org, phone us, or Facebook us:
Thank you for your help and always remember that this is your association!
Stay safe and Duckpin Strong,
Laura B. Bowden
Executive Director

Dear League Officers:
We hope that this letter finds you safe and well. The directives regarding the COVID-19 virus have affected all of us in unforseeable ways, but the NDBC wants to reassure you that we are still here for you. We are available both by phone and by email and we are trying to wind down the season as normally as possible.
As usual, we have provided you a copy of all those bowlers who have been identified to us as being members of your league. This is done to make it easier for you to prepare the required information. Make sure to return the originals, no copies, to the NDBC office.
June 15th will not be the deadline for final averages this year. The NDBC Rule Book says the following regarding final averages:
Please follow these rules and submit your paperwork as quickly as possible. Leagues that have already decided to end the season should submit their final averages as usual. Because of this year’s unusual circumstances, your league may not have decided when this year's bowling season will end. As soon as a decision is reached, PLEASE let the NDBC know by phone or email what the league decides! This will improve our ability to close the season out.
We take our responsibility to our members very seriously. We are all in this together and your welfare is our primary concern, so please contact us if we can help you in any way.
Stay safe and Duckpin Strong,
Laura B. Bowden
Executive Director
April 10, 2020
After much deliberation, and with extreme sadness, Covid-19 has forced the Board of Directors to take a step which hasn't been considered since World War II. Although it seemed that neither the tournament nor the meeting could take place, the NDBC had been holding out hope --- hope, that at least a postponement would be possible.
It has become apparent that even when the Sheltering-in-Place Directives are lifted, our bowlers' first priorities will be to their loved ones and to the financial obligations of their day-to-day lives. Because our first responsibility is to our membership, cancellation became the right decision.
Stay safe, stay strong, we'll look for you at the tournament and meeting next year!
March 30, 2020
The well being of all Duckpinners is a subject of major importance to our organization. The NDBC would like everyone to know that we hope you are all safe and well (or that you’re getting better).
We are still here and if you do need anything, please call 301-254-1802. Rest assured that we will reopen just as soon it’s allowed.
All the best until we’re able to resume the sport we all love!!

At the February 8, 2020 meeting of the NDBC Board of Directors, it was voted to pass forward to the NDBC Annual Meeting the following three rule change proposals:
610: When a foul occurs on the second ball, pins knocked down, if any, shall be counted as knocked down by the third ball, the second ball is lost and the bowler is through for that frame. If the bowler spared on the second ball and fouled, it is an automatic ten frame and the bowler is through for the frame. When a foul occurs on the third ball, both the ball and the pins knocked down by that ball are lost and the bowler is through for that frame.
611: Should a bowler make a strike in the tenth frame or any extra frame and foul on the first count ball, that ball shall be lost, the pins knocked down by that ball are counted as though knocked down by the second count ball, and the bowler is through for that frame. Should a foul occur on the second count ball, both that ball and the pins knocked down by that ball do not count and the bowler is through for that frame.
705: Senior citizen members of senior citizen leagues will pay a reduced yearly membership fee, which entitles them to bowl in senior citizen leagues. Non-senior citizen members of a senior citizen league will pay the regular membership fee. A senior citizen bowler who bowls in any other league must pay additional monies to total the full membership amount. Senior citizen fees are listed in the format book. A senior citizen bowler will be allowed to bowl in any sanctioned tournament without paying additional membership fees.
***** Rule 705 will be in conjunction with the following Definition change:
SENIOR CITIZEN LEAGUE – A league in which 90% of its members (anything over 0.5 rounds up to the next full bowler) are at least 50 years old and regularly scheduled bowling ends by 6:00 P.M.
