FROM YOUR PRESIDENT. . . DAVE LOUCKS
For some time, we have been hearing the voice of some members, State Officers and
Regional Directors who have been urging the Executive Council to make certain changes in
the News Digest. The NHPA officers have given your suggestions a lot of thought and
discussion. It is now time to announce what we intend to do.
This December issue will be the last you will receive in the present format. We are going to
increase the overall size of the magazine, go to larger type, bulk mail, more articles, add new
features and make other general changes that will add to the reading enjoyment and hopefully please a larger segment of subscribers.
After more than 3 decades as editor, Ellis Cobb will be turning over the reins of publication.
We cannot thank Ellis enough for his past dedication and service to the NHPA. His continuous
work and effort is without parallel in our organization.
As with any change, there will be some problems and delays to overcome. A lot of
information will have to be transferred and decisions made that might not appeal to all
subscribers. We can only hope that after things have setled in, the magazine will suit the
needs and expectations of current readers and lead to a larger base of subscribers.
You should not expect to receive the next magazine before the first of February as it will be
a joint Jan/Feb issue. Anyone who has contributions for issues in the first part of 1989 should
send them to Donnie Roberts until new instructions are made a part of the new publication.
I'd like to wish each and everyone of you a very Happy Holiday Season and hope that
together, we have a prosperous New Year.
I COULDN'T SLEEP IN CALIFORNIA
By GLEN PORTT
Everyone has an excuse for poor performance at the World Tournament. As soon as I
stepped inside our room at Howard Johnson's, I realized I had a new one. You've heard
1000's before. Don't care about hearing mine? O.K., I'll tell you ... I couldn't sleep!
Our room had been newly decorated. Pictures were on every wall . . . including the bathroom . . . pictures of Marilyn Monroe in seductive, glamorous, sexy poses . . . honest! (Of
course, "sexy" to an old guy like I am is any gal with her dress pulled slightly above her knee.)
I knew I was in trouble when my good wife Jane stepped inside, looked at all the pictures,
and then said, "How did YOU connive to get this room?" As most of you married men know,
there are some things a man just can't explain . . . I couldn't, so I let her have the last word . . .
as usual. Sometimes I'm real smart.
I went into the bathroom to shower. There's Marilyn . . . big as life . . . in a flimsy negligee
(Webster says this means careless, incomplete attire). Incomplete? Weeeel, yes. Kinda see
through . . . if you know what I mean. She had her hand raised . . . with her finger beckoning

me to her. She was so lifelike I was almost afraid to take off my pajamas. However, I
courageously conquered my fears. I just don't like taking showers with my clothes on.
Jane is watching TV. The lights are on in the room. I go to bed and lay down on my left side.
There's Marilyn . . . directly on the wall in front of me . . . lying on her right side with her left leg
carelessly thrown over her right one . . . and something really flimsy thrown over most of her
. . . well, er, uh, it was not just above her knee, let's say. I peeked for a while and then said to
myself, "I'll turn over and face the other wall, I've just gotta get some sleep!"
You already know, don't you? There she was again. This time she's sitting in a chair, legs
crossed, wearing a flimsy, flimsy, flimsy. . . looking straight at me with her eyes full of promise.
Promise of what? I wouldn't know. Sleep, I guess.
As I said at the start. . . everybody has an excuse. If you can't sleep, you can't pitch. Right?
I will probably never be in Dublin, California, again. However, last night I dreamed I was there.
I walked up to the desk clerk and told him I'd like a little information.
"What's that?" he asked.
"Have you ever put a picture of Marilyn Monroe on the ceiling of room 103?"
He stared at me as if I were crazy.

AN ERA OF THIRTY-TWO YEARS WITH THE EDITOR
(Photo on cover)
The NEWS DIGEST came into being at the 1956 World Tournament held at
Murray, Utah. At the invitaiton of Mr. Archie Stokes who was the NHPA President at
that time, Ellis was invited to be present for the purpose of instituting a means of
communication relating to tournament results and association activity for the membership.
Previous to 1956, tournament results of national origin had been published in
"The Horseshoe World" by the late Raymond Howard of Ohio, and followed later in
"The Horseshoe Pitcher" published by Mr. Byron Jaskeulak of New York each
month, until his death at which time the magazine stopped.
Mr. Stokes had learned that Ellis had published a two color brochure of coming
tournaments beginning in the Spring of each year and another brochure in the Fall
of all the tournaments within the State and area surrounding.
So, at the 1956 NHPA Convention the delegates voted unanimously to innovate
an NHPA magazine with the first official issue being that of January, 1957. A
sample issue had already been presented at the Convention in July of 1956.
Since the first issue which contained 16 pages, Ellis has never missed putting out
an issue for thirty-two years. Down through the years he has worked with several
NHPA Presidents and Secretaries in promoting the DIGEST as it is today, the
present issue being a 60-page plus edition.
During the intervening years, Ellis was busy in horseshoe pitching circles. On
getting a call from Mr. Matt Niesen of Chicago who was the producer of the TV
program "Championship Bowling" (a forerunner of the PBA Bowling Tour of today)
Ellis was invited to join Mr. Niesen to try and arrange to have a TV series to be
called "Championship Horseshoes." A date was set and the first trial program set
up with Ellis and Truman Standard of Canton, Illinois, being the participants. The
initial taping was sent to the NBC headquarters in New York where it met with
approval and the telecast started with an 18-week series sponsored by the RCA
Corporation and emanating from the NBC studios in Chicago. Many top pitchers of
that time took part, namely, Ellis Cobb, Truman Standard, John Landmeier, Arthur
Dugle, Milton Take, Curt Day, Don Titcomb and many others.
As the series progressed it rose to the second spot on the Nielsen rating for the
period of the broadcast which competed with "Movietime U.S.A." at that time. On
the final night of the series Don Titcomb of California was featured as the series
ending was telecast on the "Tonight" show coast to coast.
Other things began to happen to Ellis as he went about his horseshoe duties. In
1961 he was made a Life member of the NHPA while Cletus Chapelle of Oregon
was the NHPA President. In 1962, Ellis was presented the "Arch Stokes" award at
the 1962 World Tournament at Greenville, Ohio, for outstanding service. As time
went on, Ellis worked with a large trophy company designing a new figure for
horseshoe trophies depicting a real horseshoe pitcher rather than that of a bowling
figure. Ellis served as the model and six weeks later the finished product emerged.
Soon afterwards it was being used by the four major trophy companies in the
country beginning with the Brunswick Trophy Company of Gary, Indiana.
Since that time, Ellis was inducted into the NHPA Hall of Fame at the World
Tournament at South Gate, California, together with Vicki (Chapelle) Winston. In
1978 Ellis was inducted into the Illinois State Hall of Fame of which he was
secretary for thirty-two years. Ellis' wife, Virginia, is also an Illinois Hall of Fame
member.
Ellis has received many other awards and commendations and hundreds of
congratulatory letters from the many NHPA members and subscribers throughout
the United States and Canada on his dedicated service to the NHPA and horse-

AN ERA—(Continued)
shoe activity. He is most humble to all his many friends and associates he has
made.
Lest it not be forgotten, Ellis has played in four World Tournaments beginning in
1948-1949-1950 and 1951. However, due to his company having a big printing
contract, during the summer months, Ellis has not been able to compete in World
Tournaments since. In his World Tournament competition he has played against
such horseshoe pitching notables as Ted Allen, Guy Zimmerman, Fernando Isais,
Casey Jones (whom he defeated in the 1951 event), Stan DeLeary, Louie Dean,
Tommy Brownell, Dean Brown, Lowell Gray, Elmer Hohl, Curt Day (whom he also
defeated later), Ellis Griggs, Earl Bomke, Milton Tate, and many others of note.
Other than horseshoe activity, Ellis and his wife are very active in the Masonic
fraternity and appendant bodies.
Thus ends an era covering thirty-two years, and to those who will pick up the
"reigns" and continue on we say farewell and "best wishes" to all.
Sincerely
F. Ellis Cobb,
Editor

An interesting horseshoe personality . . .
PERSONALITY PROFILE—1988
By DEBBY MICHAUD
Anyone who was in Eau Claire, WS, for the 1987 World Horseshoe Tournament would have
seen Frank Hiendlmayr pitching horseshoes—several times and on several different courts.
At 86 years of age, Frank was determined to pitch as many games there as possible—so he
offered to fill in wherever and whenever any class needed ane xtra person. No complaints of fatigue, no
aches and pain here. With his 11/4
turn, using Red Henton horseshoes,
he pitched over 50 games of horseshoes, a feat many one-half his age
would like to emulate. He pitched
again in the 1988 World Horseshoe
Tournament in Pleasanton, CA.
When not pitching at a World Tournament, Frank and his wife, who is a
nurse, can be seen at courtside
watching games with an avid interest.
It's easy to spot Frank. He is a tall
straight figure with a shock of pure
white hair and a distinguished white
beard. He attributes his excellent
health and good apeparance to never
using alcohol, tobacco, or coffee, eating very little red meat or salt, and to
marrying "one of the best." He also
tends a "small garden" which is
60' x 80', bowls 7 times a week with a
183-196 average (watch out, Walter
Ray!), enjoys riding a bicycle, fishing,
and photography. He has even travelled to Africa to photograph the wild animals.
In addition, he is in the export business after "retiring" from two other businesses. Living in a
suburb of Cleveland, he is a cornerstone of the horseshoe pitching community there, having
77 years of pitching experience. What a leader he is to all of us, both by example and when he
says, "Keep busy, do the best you can, and be patient with others and with yourself." See you
in South Dakota, Frank!

Dear Mr. Cobb,
All members should try to encourage more persons to participate in our fine sport, otherwise participation will decline.
I would like to see some interesting statistics pblished like was done before, that is, the top
pitchers in the U.S. and Canada.
My variation of statistics would be the top (10) pitchers using ringer percentages for right
hand pitchers throwing 1 1 / 2 turn, 1 3 A turn, single flip, double flip, triple flip, etc., also the same
for left hand pitchers and also Junior players. These figures could come from yearly listed
percentages kept by state secretaries or conductors of area tournaments.
Very few pitchers pitch the flipshoe and holding a percentage over 50 percent. I maintained
a 52 percent average during 1987.
I would like to hear of others with the same thoughts as mine.
Yours in sports,
Donald Harper,

I BEAT CARL . . . By GLEN PORTT
I did it! I beat Carl Steinfeldt. Honest Injun! You know that I would never lie to you. As most
of you know, Carl and I have had a few interesting battles over the years . . . but I have never
beaten him. I almost did one time . . . in my dreams . . . with the help of a few rattlesnakes.
However, just as I had him 49-12 and about to administer the coup de grace, my good wife
Jane woke me up. I told you about that. (My wife is now fully recovered, thank you.)
But this time, no dream was involved. It happened at the W.T. in Pleasanton. Carl and I were
just standing there watching the women (who else?) when he asked me if I'd like to play a
game. I accepted because the way I figured, sooner or later he was bound to have a bad one
. . . and I'd just step in and "win one for the Gipper."
Welf, you wouldn't believe the way he played. His alignment was terrible. He was continually to the right or left. In fact, one time, he was almost out of the playing area. We were playing
count-all and we both scored two 3's and several 4's . . . but Carl had only one "6" in the
entire game. Unbelievable, isn't it? But it's the truth! At the beginning, I said I would never lie to
you. I haven't. I did beat him.
After the game, we were both hot and thirsty. Carl said, "I wish this golf club sold beer."

Obispo was crowned "LEAGUE CHAMPION" with a 43-35 win/loss record. Judy Harris of San
Luis Obispo came in second by one game, 42/18.
Bill Harris of San Luis Obispo earned "HIGH AVERAGE" for the season with a 75.12 point
average. Bill also earned "HIGH SCRATCH GAME" for the season with a scratch game of 99.
Cecil L. Jones of Paso Robles earned the "SPORTSMANSHIP AWARD" for his perfect
attendance. Paso Robles is approximately 45 minutes from San Luis Obispo.
Judy Harris earned "MOST IMPROVED" award by improving her point average by a big
plus 17. Last year's point ave. was 32 and she worked real hard and got it up to 49 this
season.
Judy also earned "HIGH GAME OVER AVERAGE" on the last day of this season by
pitching a scratch game of 89 points. Her average was 48 and her handicap was 92 for a total
average handicap of 140. Her 89 plus 92 handicap gave her a 181, which is 41 over her
average. This very game also earned her a 40% ringer patch; she pitched a 46%.
Congratulations to the above four players.
The league uses the 50 shoe, count-all points, singles, 90% handicap system. Each
Sunday each player pitches three games. It's working great. All games are played using the

MINUTES OF THE 1988 REGIONAL DIRECTOR'S MEETING
By MARY VAN SANT
The annual Regional Directors' meeting was held at 3:00 P.M. on August 5, 1988, at the
World Tournament in Pleasanton, California. There were 27 RD's, ARD's and representatives
in attendance, representing 21 regions.
At the Council Meeting prior to the RD Meeting, the NHPA Council gave me the go-ahead to
re-align the regions and make some of the regions smaller, assigning new RD's. There are
going to be more regional tournaments as time goes by and there should be a representative
of the NHPA, be it a council member or an RD or ARD in attendance. The people putting on
the regional tournaments are going to work very hard to make these tournaments a success
and they need our help as much as possible. Along with re-aligning the regions, I will assign
new region numbers that hopefully will have more meaning.
Discussed at this Regional Directors' meeting were regional tournaments. Most were of the
opinion that if the regional tournaments, somewhere in the future, are going to replace the
world tournament and only have the winners of the regionals compete at the world tournament, you will not get the $40,000 or $50,000 bids as you will not attract as many people as
you do now for a world tournament. Should any of the regions be interested in holding a
regional tournament you should go to your Chamber of Commerce and state officials and see
if they are willing to put up $4,000 or more to have a regional tournament. The NHPA will put
up 50 c for everything over the $4,000 bid up to $1,500. If your state is interested you should
contact Dave Loucks and get a copy of the contract and go forward from there. I have
enclosed some guidelines for the regional tournament.
This is the first year we have had no year on the tournament, class, doubles champion and
doubles class patches. The majority of the RD's stated they had had very few complaints.
Some said the people that wanted the year on their patches had it put on. Don Koso is working
on making 1989's out of some 1983 patches I had left over. We'll see how that works out.
Anyone that is interested in trying to change the year on any patches I have left from prior
years, I will be happy to send you some to experiment with. The RD's and ARD's in attendance felt we should go another year without the year on the patches.
REGIONAL REPORT—(Continued)
There were pro and con discussions about the NHPA being involved with the AAU. One RD
tried to get a tournament going with the AAU and they wouldn't have anything to do with the
NHPA. Another RD had some very favorable comments about the AAU. Another stated the
AAU provided the trophies for a tournament and then after they were presented the AAU
asked for the trophies back because the NHPA pays dues and that makes us professionals in
their eyes. Several RD's have had problems dealing with AAU and will not work with them
again.
An ARD brought out that they had heard that NHPA memberships being sold to Thousand
Trails members were one dollar less than if you were not a member of Thousand Trails. We do
not know at this time if Thousand Trails will pick up that dollar and pay it to the NHPA. Another
RD said they sold NHPA memberships for the regular price. Some Thousand Trails facilities
are very good and their people very cooperative. Other places the RD's have gone the courts
are very poor and the Thousand Trails people don't seem to know anything about the NHPA.
It is felt that each charter should have a publicity director. With a person designated as
publicity chairman, the NHPA would get better coverage and possibly attract more members.
It seems the media and newspapers get used to working with the same person and cooperate
better.
The RD s felt there should be better coverage for the game related items, having more sub
distributors. In one area the state secretary purchases horseshoes from Ed Domey and then
has these items for sale at their tournaments. This way the NHPA makes a profit from these
items that are sold. This is one answer to the situation but more sub distributors is a better
one.
The NHPA Digest was discussed and most of the RD's felt that there should be more
stories, a different format and less errors. Most states have a news letter now and they felt the
state news letter should publish the tournament results. It was brought out that the subscriptions should get to Donnie right away. We should increase the cost of the NHPA dues to cover
the cost of the Digest subscription.
There was a discussion about the courtesy card and I passed out a letter from Donnie
Roberts explaining it. For those of you not in attendance I have enclosed a copy of that letter.
To summarize the discussion, each club is allowed a card for complimentary pitchers. They
are allowed 14 complimentary pitchers a year. This pitcher can only pitch one time in a lifetime
free. Should they want to pitch again they msut join the NHPA. Courtesy card pitchers are
covered under our insurance but cannot win a patch.
The insurance program was broought up and many felt it had saved horseshoes for their
state. The parks and recreation people would not let them pitch without insurance. Most in
attendance understood the program. Any questions they had were already answered by Dave
or Kathy Loucks.
I told those in attendance I would not be seeking the office of 5th VP next term. I will only fill
the remaining months of Gene's term in office. I pointed out to those wishing to run for the 5th
VP position, your commitment should be sent to the Digest a minimum of three months prior
to the World Tournament in Spearfish. The deadline for the Digest is the 10th of the month
prior to the month is is to be published. I hope there are 45 of you wishing to run for this office.
It is one of the most important positions in the NHPA Council. I will assist anyone wishing to
run in any way I can.
I have enclosed for your information the results of the voting on the constitution and bylaws
changes voted on at the convention.
The meeting was adjourned.
W. T. DATES FOR 1989—JULY 17 thru JULY 30

i n Jttemortam
Horace (Bert) Snart, Daupin, Manitoba, Canada, passed away suddenly in Daupin on
Sunday, April 10, 1988, at 76 years of age. Bert was inducted into the NHPA Hall of Fame at
Levittown, Pennsylvania, in 1976. He was inducted into the Manitoba Horseshoe Hall of Fame
in 1979 and in 1983 was inducted into the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame. He received the
Queen's Silver Jubilee Medal on the 25th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's coronation. He
was also the recipient of other local honors and awards throughout his active career.
The Bert Snart Trophy, donated to the Canadian Horseshoe Pitching Association by the
Daupin Horseshoe Club in 1970, is awarded annually to the Canadian men's singles champion.
He gave freely of his skill and interest to community projects. Bert will be remembered as a
kind, gentle and modest man, and will be missed by many, especially his family.
The sympathy of Horseshoe Canada, Manitoba HPA and the NHPA is extended to his wife
Doreen, and all members of his family.
Harold "Buster" Johnson of the Hamilton Horseshoe Club in Hamilton, Massachusetts,
passed away on September 1, 1988.
"Buster" was instrumental in the founding of the Hamilton H.C. and was the Secretary/
Treasurer for 18 years. He was also the Tournament Director of many Massachusetts State
and Open Tournaments. He was always a helping hand at the many tournaments which he
attended and he befriended many pitchers everywhere. He was elected to the Mass. H.P.A.
Hall of Fame as an Organizer in the Summer of 1987.
Our deepest regards, and sympathy go to his dear wife "Bunny" and their family.
The Illinois State Association was saddened by the sudden passing of Clyde Coddington of
Tremont, Illinois, on October 31. He suffered a fatal heart attack while bowling in the first
frame of the Senior League of which he and his wife Hazel were members. He was rushed to
a hospital immediately where he passed away.
Clyde was the originator of the annual Tremont Turkey Festival open tournament held in
that city starting in 1966. He promoted this annual event until 1974 when his health began to
fail. He continued to be of assistance as much as he could, having a desire to always be a
scorekeeper.
He was a native of Tremont, Illinois, for all of his 80 years, having been born there, and later
was married to his wife Hazel who survives him along with his family.
He was a faithful friend and neighbor to his community, church and to his many associates
in the horseshoe pitching circles. He played in many tournaments and was a keen competitor.
He will be sorely missed.
The sympathy of the NHPA and that of the Illinois State Association is extended to his
loving wife Hazel and bereaved loved ones in their hour of sadness.
The Tennessee State Association suffered the loss of a loyal and faithful member in the
person of Ben Roskpof early in October. His death leaves a void in the ranks of the Tennessee
Association.
He was a pioneer in Tennessee horseshoe pitching circles having started the Tennessee
chapter of the NHPA. He wrote the Constitution and By-Laws and was the first secretarytreasurer.
He was a retired Colonel and professor from the University of Tennessee. He was elected
to the state Horseshoe Pitching Hall of Fame on September 17, 1988 along with several
others.
IN MEMORIAM—(Continued)
In his early years of pitching horseshoes, he had the pleasure of playing with the great Ted
Allen for several years. Ben often said that Ted taught him many things about horseshoe
pitching.
The horseshoe pitchers of Tennessee and his many associates will miss him around the
courts. To his bereaved family the sympathy of the NHPA is extended.
GENE AND OPAL RENO, DAVID CLAYTON WIN ARKANSAS
STATE TITLES—BERRY-MELSON DOUBLES—1-88-027
The Arkansas State Tournament was held Labor Day weekend, Sept. 3-5, at the new 19
court facility in the Rock Creek Recreation Area in West Fork, south of Fayetteville. A special
thanks goes to David Ray for making the grounds available and to the NW Ark. League, who
has worked so diligently the past two years to complete the facility in time for the 1988 State
Tournament.
The Park Inn in Fayetteville provided a conference room, without charge, for the AHPA
annual meeting. A plaque was presented to Carol Elliott in memory and appreciation of her
husband "Doc" Elliot. "Doc" was elected Vice President of the AHPA for 1988 and passed
away suddenly July 1.
The AHPA adopted its Constitution and By-Laws, thanks to the endless research and effort
of Len Trowbridge, Ira Scott, Bill McKay and Delia Matheny.
Organized horseshoes are relatively new in Arkansas compared to other states. The first
State Horseshoe Tournament was held in Hot Springs City Park in 1981, with 16 pitchers, but
no sanction. Ira Scott won the title of Champion. Bill Webb is the "Daddy of Horseshoes" in Hot
Springs, and after the tournament Bill and Ira decided they would like to organize a State
Association. With the necessary instructions from Donnie Roberts, the association was
started with 12 members with Bill Webb as President and Ira Scott, Secretary. Ira Scott
served as state secretary until 1987, when he was elected President. The association only
had three officers until 1988 when it elected four Vice Presidents. The membership in the
Association has now reached 123, so four VPs were elected to the council. In 1982 the State
Tournament consisted of 50 shoe games, and Floyd Toole, member of NHPA Hall of Fame
served a judge.
Hot Springs was the only league in the state with enough courts to host a State Tournament
until 1986 when Ozark constructed 10 courts. In 3987 and 1988 the Hiway 27 League in
Story, under the leadership of Bill McKay built a 16 court facility, with 8 more being completed.
There will be some though bidding to host the 1989 State Tournament.
Opal Reno of Elkins has been Women's State Champion in Arkansas since 1983. James
Melson of Altus was Men's Champion in 1982 and '83; Ira Scott regained the title in 1984;
Archie Matheny was Champion in 1985 and 1986; Jim Derry of Hope earned the title in 1987.
In 1988 Gene Reno of Elkins went undefeated in 10 games to win the State Championship
Title. Gene joins Opal as being Arkansas State Champion in 1988. We are proud to have the
Renos in Arkansas.
There were 77 entries in the 1988 State Tournament. Arkansas was represented at the
Original Regionals in Ponca City with six AHPA members. We may be new and few in number,
but we're making progress.

The Horseshoe Pitcher's News DigestDecember, 1988
ALASKA STATE CHAMPIONSHP—SANCTION 32-88-003
The 1988 Alaska State Singles Championship Horseshoe Tournament was held on Sunday, August 21, at the Eagle River Lions Club Park in Eagle River. The tournament was
hosted by the Alaska Horseshoe Pitchers Association and sponsored by Alascom, Nye
Frontier Ford, and the Eagle River Lions Club. Most players felt quite at home playing in
typical Alaskan pitching weather: cold and rainy.
In the men's competition, Norm Rousey of Palmer edged out two year state champion,
Larry Hettrick of Wasilla, in a tie breaker game for the state title. Norm just recently took
seventh place in Men's Class A at the World Championship Tournament earlier this month
which was held in Pleasanton, California. Norm is also holder of the 1984 state title.
In the women's competition, Karen Drury of Sutton took her fourth straight state title. Her
mother, Myrtle Pickard of Palmer, took first place in Women's Class B competition. Karen is
also holder of the highest ringer percentage in the state (men and women) and pitched her
first game of the tournament throwing 72% ringers.
Following the tournament, the Association held its annual banquet and general membership meeting at the Eagle River Lions Club. Important on the agenda was the election of new
officers to fill the seats vacated by outgoing board members whose terms had expired.
Elected into office on the board were Jack Pennnick of Anchorage who replaces Norm
Rousey as third vice president; Karen Drury of Sutton who replaces George Leaf as first vice
president; and Carol Lane of Anchorage who replaces Teri Demientieff as secretary-treasurer. They join John Pendergrass of Palmer (president), Pete Imhof of Chugiak (second vice
president), and Joyce Conley of Chugiak (fourth vice president) to form the AHPA Board of
Directors.

A KINDER, GENTLER NATION OF HORSESHOE PITCHERS
By DONNIE ROBERTS
Most of you know by now that President Elect George Bush pitches horseshoes and has for
several years. Also, his sons pitch and so do the secret service people who protect him.
Mr. Bush has a horseshoe court at his home in Maine and at his home in Washington. The
Secret Service has a couple courts for their use in Washington.
We have all heard stories about Harry Truman pitching horseshoes on the Whitehouse
lawn. These stories are true. I recently talked with a gentleman who played hundreds of
games with Harry Truman on that very court. Many stories could be relayed about wagering
and sneaking away from the Secret Service during the Truman horseshoe days but that is
another story.
Gary Kline can document other Presidents who pitched horseshoe prior to Truman.
To bring you up to date on the George Bush horseshoe story, I just need to let you know that
about five years ago his office telephoned me at my NHPA office in Circleville. I was instructed
to be at the telephone at a certain time to accept a call from the Vice-President. In that call, the
Vice-President ordered two pair of official horseshoes. They were shipped to him along with a
lot of horseshoe literature and a Digest subscription so that he could stay up to date on our
sport.
From that time on we received an occasional contact and more recently his press secretary
and others have called frequently. Horseshoe pitching is the number one hobby for George
Bush. He pitches every chance he gets and is a keen competitor. Word is that he beats
everyone in Washington.
At the Ohio State Fair in August of 1988 during the Governor's Invitational Tournament,
George Bush and Dan Quayle came to the horseshoe tournament. It was a specific effort to
be at the horseshoe event on their part. Both gentlemen pitched for about 30 minutes, greeted
everyone, and were delighted to see a set of official horseshoe courts. After both men pitched
some shoes, Donnie Roberts presented Bush and Quayle with a pair of Ohio horseshoes on
behalf of the Ohio Buckeye State Horseshoe Pitchers Association and a NHPA membership
compliments of the Ohio Association.
After the pitching, Mr. & Mrs. Bush and Mr. & Mrs. Quayle retired to a trailor set up for them
to rest and have a coke. At this point, the Secret Service told Earl Vansant and myself that the
Vice-President needed to talk with us. At his trailor, we were both presented with a VicePresidential shirt and had a long conversation about horseshoe. During this conversation, Mr.
Bush restated what Barbara Bush had already indicated, plans were in the works to construct
an official horseshoe court on the Whitehouse lawn. I am to work with Don Rhodes to plan this
construction.
After the rest, Mr. Bush held a news conference, with all major media present. I'm sure all of
you saw it on network news with horseshoe in the background.
This story about the activity of George Bush as relates to horseshoe has been kept short. I
just wanted to briefly update people on what is happening. Now that George Bush has been
elected President, it will appear that we will have a few years with the chance to see our sport
get some notice. I feel certain that you remember the impact Dwight Eisenhower had on golf
and the similar impact that the Kennedy brothers had on touch football.
My tentative goals for our sport as relates to Mr. Bush are to facilitate the court at the
Whitehouse, to try to arrange for our world champions to be honored at the Whitehouse as is
done in other sports, to see if it is possible to get a horseshoe pitcher on the President's
Council for Physical Fitness, and to work with Mr. Rhodes to arrange a few visits of our top
pitchers to the Bush home in Washington, D.C.
There is absolutely no effort to get involved in politics, just an effort to promote our sport.
Needless to say, there will be a constant effort to get Mr. Bush in his new position as
President to attend our World Tournament or even come to play. We have classes for 25%
pitchers as you know.
Should you wish to write or call the newly elected horseshoe pitching President, please
contact: Don Rhodes, 5D-202, Washington, D.C. 20510, Ph: 202-224-2424.

RESUME OF 1988 WORLD TOURNAMENT
By BOB CHAMPION
Three former World Champions, Walter Ray Williams, Jr., Mark Seibold and Jim Knisley,
battled down to the wire before Knisley defeated Seibold, 40-38, in a playoff to capture the
1988 World Championship at Pleasanton, California, August 1 through 12. The winner's
share was $3200 of the $60,000 prize fund.
Jesse Gonzales from Los Osos, California, and Seibold, Huntington, Indiana, put the crimp
in Williams' chances when they took turns dropping Walter Ray in the final two games.
After losing to Williams in the third from the last encounter, Knisley collected his winning
wares to drop Seibold and Gonzales to force the one game playoff. Seibold, who had led the
tournament going into the final five games, took an early lead in the playoff and held a
seemingly comfortable 32-16 advantage midway through the fracas.
However, the cool Bremen, Ohio, veteran was not to be denied. He scored 15 consecutive
points to climb within a point, and took the lead on a three-ringers-three call before Seibold
recovered to regain the lead, 35-34. The two gladiators exchanged three pointers and the
score settled at 38-37 with Seibold holding the advantage. Mark left a single opening on his
final two shoes and Knisley calmly tossed a double to win his second World Championship in
five years.
Midway in the tournament, Alan Francis, a four-time junior champion who competed in the
Men's World Championship for the second year, was a giant killer and helped to determine
the eventual winner. Francis from Blythedale, Missouri, defeated Knisley, 40-15, Williams, 41 32, and Seibold, 42-34, which is the modern day record for consecutive victories over the top
three leaders in the tournament.
Williams led the percentage parade for the 31-game round robin play with an 80.2 mark.
The Champion was 79.9 and Seibold closed with 78.8. Fourth pice went to Erie, Pennsylvania's Steve Kuchcinski; Francis was fifth; defending champion Dale Lipovsky, Bloomington,
Minnesota, was sixth; followed by Richard Pintor, Colorado; Art Tyson, New York; Gonzales
and John Kapnis from Salem, Massachusetts. The surprise finisher this year was Colorado's
Rich Pintor, who in his first Championship appearance, finished seventh.
Total participation in the 67th World Tournament was 839, including 639 men, 129 women,
42 boys and 29 girls.
Dianne Lopez Women's Winner—The old adage "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again"
does not apply to Diane Lopez of Lampoc, California. She won the 1988 Women's World
Championship on her first try
Breezing through nine straight opponents the first two days, including defending Champion
Sandy McLachlin from Canada, 42-32, the hard throwing "flipper" star dropped her one and
only game to 10-time World Champion Vicki Winston from LaMonte, Missouri, 41-24, in the
tenth. She then proceeded to take five straight in convincing fashion from Canada's Myrna
Kissick, Indiana's Sue Snyder, former champion Phyllis Negaard from Minnesota, California's
Sharon Paddock and last year's runner-up Diane Cantin from Canada.
Lopez finished with a 14-1 record in the 16-person field, closing with an 83.4 percentage.
McLachlin's 85% was high for the group. Last year the 17-year old McLachlin fired a World
record 88.2. The latter's two defeats came at the hands of five-time World Champion Ruth
Hangen, who at 72 years old, still has that touch, and from the 1988 Champion Diane Lopez.
Over 80% performances came from two other competitors: Sharon Paddock 81.7 and
Cantin 80.2. Lopez earned $2400 first place prize money.
Debby Bestul Wins Again—Seventeen-year old Debby Bestul from Eau Claire, Wisconsin,
won her fourth Junior Girls World Championship in five tries besting Canada's Alana Johnson, 41-32 in a playoff. Debby and Alana finished 5-1 after the finals round robin play
Debby finished with a 58.5 percentage. She was 42.5 in 1984, 63.8 in 1985, and 65.1 last
year. Two years ago she lost the title to McLachlin, the defending women's champion last
year.
Steinfeldt Wins Seniors—Former World Champion Carl Steinfeldt of Rochester, New York,
became the first NHPA participant to win titles in three classifications when he captured the
RESUME—(Continued)
men's Seniors crown. He defeated defending champion Ray Hill of Michigan in the final game
to go undefeated with a 11-9 record.
Steinfeldt won the World's Men's Championship in 1976 at Bristol Pennsylvania and followed in 1978 with the Intermediate crown before returning to Championship play until this
year. His 11-game percentage in 1988 was 74.1.
Titcomb Intermediate Winner— Don Titcomb of San Jose, California, went undefeated to
win the men's intermediate title, closing with 76.6 percent. A former World Champion who
won the top title in 1960, in the days of Ted Allen, Fernando Isais and company, competed out
of the Championship division for the first time since he started his career many years ago.
Titcomb had a commitment at the Santa Clara County Fair in San Jose which made it
impossible to pitch with the "big boys." He performed ont he stage at the fair three times daily
at 1:30, 4:30 and 6:30 with trick horseshoe pitching and discussing horseshoe pitching with
anyone after the show. He is the Ambassador of Horseshoes in the San Jose area.
Neeb Junior Boys Champion—Edward Neeb became the third Canadian boy to win the
World's title when he completed the 12-man field with a 11-0 record and 80.7 average
percentage after several tries in the championship group.
Steve Hohl, with a famous last name, won the 1978 title, and for seven years it was Mark
Dyson and Alan Francis taking charge before Tony Hankins of Kentucky and Kipp Barody
from New York took over the last two years.
Neeb was not pressed during the competition and finished three games in front of Steven
Barnes of Missouri, Jim Walters, Ohio, and Doug Macha from Texas.
Other winners in some of the major championships were Jeff Williams, San Jose, California, in Men's Class A; Francis White, Erie, Pennsylvania, in 70-Plus Elders 40 feet; Herb
Rushing, Grass Valley, California, in 70-Plus Elders 30 feet; Edi Holland, Dayton, Minnesota,
in Women's Class A; Ben Fields, Honolulu,Hawaii, in Intermediates Class A; Floyd Voyce of
Mesa, Zrizona, in Seniors Class A; Julie Walters, Troy, Ohio, in Girls Class A; and James
Ornelas, California, in Boys Class A.

A. FRANCIS TOPS IN MISSOURI STATE—SAN 15-88-110
In a picturesque setting beside a flowing trout stream, 176 contestants came to vie for the title of the best
horseshoe pitcher in Missouri. The weather was perfect and the horseshoes were flying from early morning
until late at night. When the action cleared, Alan Francis emerged as the Men's State Champion after a
heart stopping game with David Baker. With the score 38-33 in Baker's favor, Baker missed both shoes and
Francis scored 6 points to make the game 39-38 in his favor. He then pitched first and missed a shoe which
was out of count. Baker also missed a shoe out of count and the score remained the same. After a 4-dead
pitch, Francis had a double on the stake and Baker missed both shoes, giving Francis his third consecutive
state title.
Earlier in the day two of the ladies entertained the crowd with a fine match. Loree Meier and Vicki
Winston went 68 shoes and had a combined ringer average of 77.95%. Vicki emerged the victor for her
12th state championship. Competition is nothign new to these ladies. In 1987 at the Missouri State Fair
they pitched a 70 shoe game with a combined ringer average of 80.7%.
In his last year of eligibility, Steve Barnes retained his Junior title. Steve recently placed second in the
Junior Championships at the 1988 World Tournament.
In Seniors competition, Wayne Trautwein was able to unseat the defending champion, Don Harris, to
emerge as the 1988 Seniors Champ. This is not the first time that Wayne has won the Seniors title.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE
TO THINK ABOUT
Think Positive - Not Negative
GOALS
1- ONE all purpose TRULY portable, attractive, N.H.P.A. perfected
horseshoe court to completely satisfy everyone. One sport that would
call for a 100% equal test of skill for mankind worldwide. Mass production
and easily boxed to ship at a cost anyone could afford would trigger off
our sport.
2. ONE all purpose colorful scoreboard and magic master board N.H.P.A.
perfected to give us new exciting games to play could give us a spectator
and TV sport to compete with any. No other sport can come close to do
what we can for the entire family, a real good lifetime fitness centre right
in your own back yard.
3. ONE complete standardized system N.H.P.A. perfected to put the icing
on the cake and make everything we have been wishing for all these
years come true. We can get far more out of the sport for ourselves and
be instrumental in it spreading into every corner of the globe. The time
is ripe. The need is there. Everything is in our favor.
$3000.00
I am willing if wanted to put $3000.00 in the hands of the N.H.P.A. Council
at the World's Tournament to be given out in $300.00 cash amounts to
anyone that can improve on what I have to offer to upgrade our sport. Every
boy and girl in every rich or poor family in every nation can get the health
benefits and enjoyment that this God loving friendship sport is providing for
you and me. The potential for a better world tomorrow is endless.
SHOULD WE CARE? ! DO!

TENNESSEE HALL OF FAME INDUCTIONS
By DONNIE ROBERTS
The great state of Tennessee is well known in horseshoe circles. They have had an active
association for many, many years. Dexter Stallings, who is an NHPA Regional Director has
been secretary of that association for some 25 years.
Marvin Bastian, President of the Tennessee Association, contacted me several months ago
and asked if I could attend the Tennessee Hall of Fame Banquet and be the guest speaker. I
accepted.
Pictured left to right are: Jim Adkerson, Nick Nave accepting for J. Miff Nave, Grady Whaley, Dexter
Stallings, Roger Norwood, George Lewis, Donnie Roberts (NHPA Secretary-Treasurer), James Davis, Bill
Arms, O. D. Lebow, Carl Montgomery, and Don Ward.
The weekend of October 17 and 18 I traveled to Cleveland, Tennessee. It was a 600 mile
trip one way. On Saturday, we pitched horseshoe on the T. R. Little Memorial Courts. In
Tennessee, you pitch on Saturday based on your average. Then, on Sunday, you pitch in a
class based on your pitching the day before. I pitched on Saturday but couldn't stay for the
Sunday pitching.
We had a very fine meal on Saturday at the courts. It was catered and very nice. The
pitching was good but we had some rain. (Smile)
Saturday evening, at the Holiday Inn, we had a fantastic Hlal of Fame ceremony for 16 very
deserving Tennessee Horseshoe people. Over the years 16 people had earned this great
honor. More than 50 people were in attendance, with Marvin Bastian as the Master of
Ceremonies.
Inducted were: Jim Adkerson, Bill Arms, James Burns, James Davis, Charles Fortenberry,
O. D. Lebow, George Lewis, T. R. Little, Carl Montgomery, J. Miff Nave, Roger Norwood, Ben
Raskopf, Dexter Stallings, John Walker, Don Ward, and Grady Whaley.
The hospitality extended by Marvin Bastian, the other Tennessee officers and the members
of the Association was really great. It was just a tremendous tirp.
In East Tennessee, they grow Muscadine grapes. These don't grow in Ohio and were the
first I had ever seen. They are very large, sweet, and have very thick skins. Thanks to the folks
44
TENNESSEE—(Continued)
in the Cleveland area, I now have several jars of Muscadine Grape Preserves on my fruit
shelf.
While at the Hall of Fame Banquet, I had a chance to talk with Nick Nave. He is the son of
J. Miff Nave. Nick presented me with a scoresheet dated 1934 in which J. Miff Nave completed against Carmen Cole. It was an official NHPA scoresheet which didn't look much like ours
now. In that game J. Miff tossed 113 ringers out of 116 shoes for 97.4% and Carmen hit 95
ringers out of 116 shoes for 81.9%. J. Miff had 26 doubles in a row in one stretch. The most
significant item on this August 14,1934 scoresheet was that the score was 51-0.1 doubt there
have been too many games where 81.9 was shut-out.
A. TYSON REGAINS NEW YORK STATE CHAMPIONSHIP—RUTH
HANGEN WINS LADIES—JOE WINNE, JRS.—SAN 18-88-013
Art Tyson of Mount Vernon swept through 15 games without defeat, averaging 80 percent ringers, to
capture his fourth New York State men's horseshoe pitching championship over Labor Day weekend.
Allowing 30 points or more to just two of his opponents in the men's championship fight, Tyson, 49,
regained the title he had won previously in 1977, 1980 and 1982. Only four-time champion Mike DiMartino
of Churchville (41 -30) and Clair Rigby of Webster (40-34) came within 10 points of Tyson in the round-robin
competition.
It was only Tyson's fourth game of New York's 58th annual, two-day tournament, held at hte Camden
Horseshoe Club courts. But Tyson finally caught Rigby at 30-29 and finished the game with 78.1 percent.
Tyson's overall tournament percentage of 80.6 was helped by an 89.2 game against Lou Stines of
Glendale, which Tyson won, 40-3, and an 88.2 game against Bob Hayes of Franklinville, which Tyson won,
40-2.
"I've been close for a lot of years," said Tyson, who finished fourth in the World Tournament in Pleasanton, Calif., in August and won the Eastern National tournament in Erie, Pa., in early summer. "Second . . .
third . . . fourth. I'm always hanging in there but haven't been able to put a cap on it. This year I've been
working especially hard on my concentration, keeping my mind on my game only and not worrying about
somebody else."
He had little to worry about all weekend, even with DiMartino, who pitched an 83.3 game against him but
could manage no more than 30 points because Tyson fired 87.7. The game went 90 shoes. Tyson still
needed a victory in his last game, with John Bogardus of Fort Edward, to avoid a tie with DiMartino and a
playoff. He nailed it down with a 42-20 victory despite Bogardus' 81.1 percent game.
DiMartino finished 14-1 for second place and defending champion Jim Lewis of Hudson Falls was third at
13.2.
In the women's division, Ruth Hangen of Getzville added to her already impressive record by capturing
her 14th state title (and third straight) with a 7-0 record and 72.2 percentage. Traci Hastings of Rome was
second (5-2- 65.2). Her sister, Terri Warters of Camden, won the junior girls division (4-1-20.5).
Defending champion Jon Winne of Glens Falls had Ititle trouble in junior boys, going 6-0 with 77.3
percent ringers. Total entries were 255, down from 279 the previous year.
State association members accepted a bid from the Canton Horseshoe Club to host the state tournament in 1989. New officers elected are: President - Charles Reigles of Endicott; Vice president - Rodney
Pratt of Holland Patnet; Second VP - Helen Meehan of Fort Edward; Sec.-treas. - David Thorn of Newburgh.

KNISLEY REPEAT WINNER OF 1988 GREENVILLE, OH. RINGER
CLASSIC—F. CARNAHAN RETAINS LADIES—SAN 21-88-08
There were no surprises in the 1988 Ringer Classic as Jim Knisley of Bremen, Ohio, and Fran Carnahan
of Shippenville, Pa., repeated as Men's and Women's Champions. But it was not easy for either Champion.
Knisley defeated Eldon Sarbaugh 43-38 in the 11th game to stave off a pitch-off after being behind 37-38.
For Fran it was a matter of squeaking past Connie Still 40-39 then wait for Terri Powell to best Sue Snyder
40-39 to avert a play-off for the Women's title.
In the Junior Divisions Julie Walters successfully defended her Girls' Title but Brothers Jim and John
exchanged the Championship in the Boys' Division.

We've asked each state association to sponsor the entry of their four best available
pitchers—men or women. We realize states are abundant with quality pitchers, so
any state or individual may sponsor additional teams.
• This year's tournament is 100 percent payback without additional sponsors.
• Entry deadline is January 9, 1989 and entry fee is $100 per team.
• The official Can/Am Lodging is the luxurious Racine Hotel and Conference Center. Room Rates are $44.99 for single-double and $44.98 for three or more. 414886-6100. Lodging also is available at Paul's Motel at 414-886-3830.

CURT D A Y . . . By GLEN PORTT
I have always realized that Curt Day was a great horseshoe pitcher. I also realized that I really didn't
know too much about him . . . so I decided to find out. In almost any gathering of the addicted, where our
really great ones . . . our legends . . . are discussed, you will hear the names of Ted Allen, Elmer Hohl,
Fernando Isais, and Carl Steinfeldt bandied about... but seldom, if ever, do you hear the name of Curt
Day. I wondered why.
After looking at a few statistics, I decided that if a completely unbiased statistician would analyze the
records, a case could be made that maybe Curt Day was the best of them all. I can hear you say, "No way.
Certainly you are not saying that Day ranks on a par with Hohl, Allen, Isais, and Steinfeldt?"
"That's exactly what I'm saying."
"How can you possibly say that?"
"Because the records reflect it. Let's take a look. All four players pitched more W.T. games than Curt's
574 . . .but Curt had the second highest winning percentage of all time. . . 86.23%. Isais's 88.11 was first,
Hohl's 84.33 third, Allen's 77.95 fourth, and Steinfeldt's 77.74 fifth."
"O.K. That's a good point. What else?"
"Well, if I asked you which of the five had the best ringer percentage for the 100's of W.T. games each
played, who would you pick?"
"Elmer Hohl."
"It's possible you may be right. It is so close that a complete search of the records would have to be made
in order to say absolutely that it was not Elmer... but as the records stand today, Elmer was second with
82.28% vs. Curt's 82.48%."
"O.K. Another point. But does that make him greater than Elmer?"
"Definitely not. Both men and enough times at bat so that a comparison can be made. However, Elmer
pitched 205 more games so his 82.28% for 779 games is a record. Curt's 82.48% for 574 games is also a
record."
"How about World Tournament titles? I don't remember Curt winning too many."
"We all know that Allen with 10 is th leader. . . and tha record won't be broken for a few years. Isais with 8
and Hohl with 6 are next. Then Curt with 3. (Records before 1933 and after 1977 not considered.) In those 3
W.T.s, he averaged 86.2, 84.9, and 81.8. He won 93 out of 98 games for a winning percentage of 94.89. I
believe these figures put him right up there with the best. What do you think?"
"I agree. Anything else?"
"Yes. After realizing that Curt had not received the credit due him over the years as one of our greatest
. . . I wanted to find out more . . . so I interviewed him . . . asked him a lot of questions . . . and recorded the
answers."
"What kind of questions?"
Here are a few . . . "Curt, you threw a 3/4 reverse. Did you ever throw any other turn?"
"I have always thrown a 3/4 reverse."
"No man has ever won a W.T. with a regular 3/4 turn. Theory is that too many ringers are lost with this
type turn. You apparently did not loose too many with your reverse 3/4. Why would a reverse turn stay on
better than a regular 3/4 turn?"
"I threw a hard shoe but it landed soft. I practiced throwing so it would hook the stake . . . and I pitched
from the right side. I seemed to have better alignment from the cross fire position. When I pitched from the
left side, the shoe went on more perfect . . . but I would lose more ringers."
"In 1984, Sports Illustrated started an article on horseshoes with a 2-page spread . . . showing a big red
barn, and you, wearing bib overalls, posing in knee high grass. The author started the article with . . . 'by
and large the game of horseshoes remains what it was. The stakes are out there behind the barn.
This drew lots of criticism . . . and many thought it set horseshoes back 20 years . . . because it gave to a
million readers a very false picture of what the sport is today. Did you ever wear overalls like that when you
pitched in a tournament? Were you paid for posing as the producer wanted?"
"I received no pay. I have pitched in overalls . . . but never in a tournament. It happened like this. I
received a call from Donnie stating a Jackie' was flying in to take some pictures. Jackie did take a lot of
pictures. I didn't know which ones would be used. I should have asked for more information."
(In the next issue, Curt Day tells you who he thinks was the best of them all' . . . who his most dreaded
opponent was . . . his greatest game . . . and why the 1966 W.T. was so special . . . all in Part II.)
