Dale Davis, just three months
 from his 79th birthday, his sight stolen years ago by macular degeneration,
 rolled 12 consecutive strikes in front of an enthusiastic and supportive crowd.
 The effort was the first-ever 300 game at Century. 
                </SPAN></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://stormlake.com/topstory.htm"><DIV class="para2">
                <SPAN class="text9">“It was quite a thrill,” Davis said of the achievement. “When I got to the tenth frame, I said ‘Lord, let me throw three more good balls.’ When I did, people on other teams were yelling and cheering. A few guys were
 hugging me and almost broke my skinny bones.”
</SPAN>
            </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://stormlake.com/topstory.htm"><DIV class="para2">
                <SPAN class="text9">With his neatly combed back hair and 115-pound frame, Davis is proud of the fact
 he still uses the heaviest ball available, explaining that he and his ball “weigh over 130 pounds together.”
