Back in the 1960s and 1970s, the Ukrainian National Association held national bowling tournaments. The first of these very popular events was held on April 29-30, 1966, in Aliquippa, Pa., at Sheffield Lanes. The tournament was organized by the UNA Sports Committee; its host was UNA Branch 120, the St. Nicholas Society. In the photo on the bottom, UNA Supreme President Joseph Lesawyer rolls the first ball of the tourney. Looking on (from left) are: Andrew Lysenko of UNA Branch 120, and UNA Supreme Advisors Helen Olek, William Hussar and Andrew Jula. For the record, 30 teams competed at that first tournament, and the men’s and women’s teams from Chicago won the top trophies and cash prizes.
