More about this item
- Description
- A Multnomah County bowling team at the 1952 American Bowling Congress in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. From left to right: Ted Mullan, Larry Larison, Chuck DeMacon, Fergie Risk, and Glenn Collins.
- Provenance
- Found in collections. The team included two pairs of doubles partners: Chuck DeMacon and Glenn Collins, both of Gresham, who notably both "paced keglers" (got 12 strikes in a row) at the tournament, and Fergie Risk and Ted Mullan. Larry Larison bowled with a George Langmus. All five were mentioned in the Oregonian as bowling "in the spangles" of the Gresham Chamber of Commerce, although not all were Gresham residents. Fergie Risk was at one time the proprieter of the Gresham Bowl, a local bowling alley, and later the co-owner of East Side Lanes in Portland.
