    Was this the bowler who bowled in street shoes instead of bowling shoes? I love that suitcase release, it reminds me of Les Schissler.

    Like many bowlers of his time, Bodis did bowl in street shoes. However, he kept that pair of shoes separate, and used them only for bowling. Don’t get the idea that he walked in from the mud and slush, then went right down onto the lanes!
