THESE MICHIGAN GRIDDERS DIDN'T PLAY TODAY: Yes, they are wearing Michigan football uniforms. But they did their playing last night. They are members of the Stein Cleaner team of the Ladies City Bowling league of the Ann Arbor Recreation. Stretched out on the bench is Abbie Peterson, who just made a strike. The two linemen, left to right, administering to Abbie are Jean Rash and Annabell Stein. At the extreme right is Helen Wolf. The occasion was the annual Halloween costume party of the league.

ROLLS A SEVEN: Mayor Bill Brown rolled a seven Saturday night, but he didn't pick up the lettuce. His Honor was officially opening the eighth annual men's city bowling tournament at the 20th Century Recreation. A capable kegler himself, the mayor appeared slightly nervous as he approached the foul line and sent the ball spinning down the alley to upset seven of the 10 pins. Twenty-four teams competed on the opening night of the competition.

Construction Of Colonial Lanes Bowling Alley, June 1960 Photographer: Doug Fulton
Year:
1960
Published In:
Ann Arbor News, June 25, 1960
Caption:
LARGEST IN CITY: These 143-foot-long prefabricated wood beams in place at the new Colonial Lanes bowling alley of 1950 Industrial Hwy. are believed to be the largest clear spans to be erected in the city. Each beam weighs 4 1/2 tons and is made up of at least 58 pieces of wood laminated together. Two railroad flat cars were required to transport the beams from a factory in Peshtigo, Wis., with the rearmost car protecting the beams' overhang. Each beam is 28 feet high at the center. Colonial Lanes is being built by the Pinnacle Corp., which is headed by Donald Laubengayer of Ann Arbor, and is to be operated by that group when the bowling alley opens about Sept. 1. The alley will contain 28 lanes, a nursery room, a bar-lunch room, and will be air conditioned.
