His enthusiasm, organizational ability, attention to statistics, and plain old hard work for over forty years earned him a place in the Syracuse Bowling Association Hall of Fame. He helped to start the Sackett Tract “B” League, which was one of the strongest and well represented leagues in the city. Under Guy Tobey, John served as assistant S.B.A. secretary and helped to organize the League Officer’s tournament and directed for ten years the first Bowlers Victory Legion Committee. Through his efforts with the Carrier Corporation an entry of seventy-two teams were entered into the 1973 A.B.C. tournament. John has been on the Board of Directors of the Syracuse Bowling Association since 1956 and served as the President during the 1976-77 season.
