Mixed league champs, the Farmers Union Oilers of Devils Lake: Rob Schill, Mike Seibel, Anessa Bailey and Dan Wanner (not pictured Rose Seibel).

The Sunday Night Mixed Bowling League came to an end and the annual awards banquet was held at Wonder Lanes on the evening of March 30.
The 9-Pin No-Tap Tournament was held prior to the awards presentation. There were six couples taking part in the tournament which was won by Anessa Bailey and Ron Dockter with a score of 1626. Second place went to Ed O'Connor and Art Allmaras with a 1523. The highlight of the tournament was a "300" game bowled by Trucker Roberts. He had 12 strikes in his last game- and at the very same time Rob Schill, Devils Lake, bowled a 298 game -11 strikes in a row and an 8-pin count on his last shot. Unfortunately this tournament was not sanctioned and therefore neither bowler received any cash prize for their accomplishments.
After the tournament Sec. Gail Roberts presented the awards. She presented a first place plaque to the league winners the Farmers Union Oilers, consisting of bowlers Dan Wanner, Anessa Bailey, Mike & Rose Seibel and Rob Schill, all of Devils Lake. They had won the second half of the bowling season and won in the roll-off over the first half winners, Cornerstone Coffee of Fessenden.
