ALLEY AUTOMATION: Complex is the word for the equipment which has made pin boys pretty much obsolete in the world of bowling.

BEHIND THE SCENES: Bowling balls, of course, don't grow on trees or come all ready for use. Thumb and finger holes must be bored and proper spacing is important, especially to the serious keglers. Hank Platt operates the drilling machine at Huron Lanes, one of the few places in southeastern Michigan where such work can be done.

OPEN WIDE: He may not look much like its mother, but five-year-old Jimmie McKim--or at least the worm he's holding is a welcome sight to this wide-mouthed and orphaned grackle. The lad, son of Mr. and Mrs. James M. McKim of 652 Northside Ave., keeps the grackle in an abandoned robin's nest and tenderly feeds it tender worms--which he not so tenderly pulls into smaller pieces, as only little boys can do.
