President. today I am introducing legislation which proclaims the week beginning January 4. 1987 as "National Bowling Week." Since becoming part of our American recreational life. bowling has become one of the most popular sports. It enjoys widespread public participation. What is particularly impressive about bowling is that it reflects that we are a Nation made up of a mosaic of nationalities. Many immigrants brought from their home country to America forms of bowling. From the British contribution of skittles or nine pins to the Italian contribution of bocci ball. bowling has become a virtual melting pot of cultures. With participation by several millions each year. bowling has no prejudice with respect to size or shape.
