BETTY JO HEMBER
Cuing up bowling bowl for sidepocket . . .
Miss Member's highest game is 298 and her highest series is 731. Her parents are avid bowlers so Miss Member began her bowling early, about 11 years ago.
She Stars in Pool. Too
Even in Cast, Gal Bowls High
By Don Black
As winner of the tourney, she was guest on "To Tell the Truth," a television show.
She took the ball, stepped off on the left foot, hobbled, limped and staggered three more steps.
MISS HEMBER is KU's top woman bowler and also the champion woman pocket billiards shooter. She won the National Intercollegiate Women's Bowling tournament when she was a freshman and placed second in her sophomore and junior years.
But the last step and release of the ball looked professional, especially when the ten pins sprawled on the floor.
Betty Jo (B.J.) Member, Shawnee Mission senior, had spent the holidays in the hospital and Saturday was the first time she had bowled in competition since her operation. The bad knee hampered her style; her average for the day was about 170. It normally runs about 180.
The operation on her "football knee" was to remove some cartilage, but that did not stop her long. The operation was performed Dec.
The KU women's team defeated Oklahoma State, Wichita State University and K-State Saturday in a Mid-America Intercollegiate Bowling match.
"I had to cut down the number of steps to two," the petite 120 lb. brunette beamed, "but I still bowled."
IN HER OTHER sport, billiards or better kown as pool. Miss Member qualified for the sectional competition of the nationals twice. Pool is her second love, after bowling, then comes tennis, volleyball and basketball. She is a women's physical education major and is minoring in language arts.
After the cast was removed, Miss Hember tried bowling with her normal delivery. The result was horrifying. Her average dropped to 150 with a bandaged knee.
BUT THE CAST did not cut down her bowling, although it did cut down the number of steps on her approach.
Although the bandaged knee cramps her style, Miss Hember said it also helps.
"It kind of cramps my style, to an advantage however," she said.
18 and she was released from the hospital Christmas morning. Shortly after, she was bowling in a cast.
Young Democrats Vote to Amend Constitution
Members of the KU Collegiate Young Democrats amended their constitution during the organizational meeting Thursday night. The amendment increased the number of officers of the club.
"The bad knee slows me down."
Miss Member said before the operation, she rushed up to the line in her approach and threw the ball. Now the bum knee makes her take it slower and allows more control.
Of the 14 women's trophies on display at the Kansas Union. 12 were won by Miss Hember during the last three years.
Bascom C. Fearing, manager of the Jay Bowl and team coach, said Miss Member is good enough to win both the national intercollegiate bowling tourney and the billiards tourney.
The election of new club officers will be held Wednesday, March 3.
The next meeting of the club is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 11.
Three new CYD clubs have been formed in the state. They were formed at the College of Emporia; Southwestern College, Winfield, and Sterling College, Sterling.
