    Walt Steinsiek, 84 years-old, of Micco, Florida died in his

    home of apparent heart failure on June 27, 2010, while prepar-

    ing to leave to attend the Bowling Writers Association of

    America (BWAA) annual convention, a part of the 2010

    International Bowl Expo in Las Vegas.

    Steinsiek was born in Passaic, New Jersey, on Nov. 1, 1926

    and always referred to himself as a Jersey Boy.

    His affection for and devotion to the game of bowling began

    when he was 12 years-old and took a job as a pin-boy at a

    bowling alley near his home.

    When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, Walt signed up

    and served as a U.S. Merchant Marine during World War II,

    sailing in convoys to Europe on tankers and Liberty ships. He

    was an active member in the Artists and Writers Club of the

    Seaman's Church Institute in downtown New York City and

    earned a scholarship to New York University's School of Art

    in 1946.

    Walt was passionate about bowling, and his work earned

    him several Hall of Fame honors and industry awards. In

    2006, he received the prestigious Sam Levine Flowers for the

    Living Award.

    A past president of the Bowling Writers Association of

    America, 1988, and a life member of the Southern Bowling

    Writers Association, Walt received the Joe Richards Memorial

    Hall of Fame Award from the Metropolitan Bowling Writers

    Association (MBWA), that serves the metropolitan New York

    City area and beyond, and the Rip Van Winkle Award from the

    BWAA. He was inducted into the Greater Baltimore Bowling

    Association Hall of Fame in 1984 in its meritorious service cat-

    egory, and was elected to the Nation's Capital Area Bowling

    Association Hall of Fame in 2002.

    On Wednesday of this Bowl Expo last week, he was to

    receive the John Davis Award for outstanding industry service.

    In 1973 Walt took it on his own to publish an all-bowling

    book of cartoons entitled Balls - Bowling, of Course!, The

    publication was very well received and today is a collector's

    item. He followed up in 1994 with A Funny Approach, and

    that also sold out and is now a collectors item as well, then in

    2000 issued A Funnier Approach, and the latest, The

    Funniest Approach, in 2004.

    As a sanctioned bowler, Walt helped organize several

    leagues in the Baltimore-Washington area. In 1980, he started

    the Baltimore Bowling News a publication that later became

    the Baltimore-Washington Bowling News and he served as its

    editor and publisher. After a dozen years of publication, the

    paper was sold, and Walt retired to Southern Florida in 1992.

    In Florida, his weekly bowling columns have appeared in sev-

    eral Scripps Howard newspapers for many years including his

    last column that was published on June 30, 2010, in the Scripts

    Treasure Coast publication. His family sent the column in

    after his death to meet Walts last deadline.

    Steinsiek also was the founder of the BWAA Bowling

    Cartoonist of the Year Award in 1994. An award that has been

    presented to distinguished cartoonists who have used bowling

    in their work. Winners include Peanuts creator Charles

    Schulz, Jim Davis, who created Garfield, and Dean Young,

    creator of the Blondie cartoons and the prestigious list does

    include Walt as well.

    As a dedicated league bowler and fierce tournament com-

    petitor, Walt won the Kegler Bowling Club championship in

    1971, beating out 650 entrants. In 1984, he was awarded the

    American Bowling Congress' Sponsor's Award for sponsoring

    the year's highest-scoring five-man team when they tallied a

    3,704 three-game series. He also served as public relations

    chairman of the Florida Space Coast Bowling Association.

    On Memorial Day of this year, Steinsiek fulfilled a lifelong

    dream of visiting his brother Henrys gravesite in Holland.

    Henry was killed in World War II in 1945. (See Walts story on

    page 4 of this issue)

    He and Jane, his wife of more than 55 years, have a daughter

    named Denise.

    LAS VEGAS, NV Sports history

    was made at 2010 International

    Bowl Expo, when the Bowling

    Proprietors Association of

    America (BPAA) announced that,

    for the first time in the history of

    the sport, a Womens Major profes-

    sional bowling event will be held in

    a traditional sporting venue.

    Marking a historic achievement for

    womens athletics, the BPAA bro-

    kered an agreement for the 2011

    Bowlings U.S. Womens Open to

    be hosted on-site at Cowboys

    Stadium in Arlington, TX; details

    are being finalized for the national-

    ly televised event. Bowlings U.S.

    Womens Open will be held on

    June 30, 2011 in conjunction with

    the 2011 International Bowl Expo

    and will be sponsored by The

    Brands of Ebonite International.

    This is an incredible moment for

    both womens sports and the bowl-

    ing industry and an opportunity for

    Bowlings U.S. Womens Open to

    rightfully take center stage before

    worldwide audiences, said Kelly

    Kulick, recently named ESPY

    finalist for Best Bowler, the first

    woman to ever win a regular

    Professional Bowlers Association

    (PBA) title, five-time member of

    Team USA and a two-time winner

    of the Open. Bowlings U.S.

    Womens Open is an event that sits

    at the pinnacle of womens athlet-

    ics. Its both thrilling and gratify-

    ing that this event and its great

    women athletes who I am proud

    to call my competitors will be

    catapulted into the spotlight in

    2011.

    The ground-breaking announce-

    ment was issued before a standing

    ovation at the General Session

    kick-off of the 2010 International

    Bowl Expo at the Las Vegas Hilton.

    With confetti cannons blasting and

    following an emotional video his-

    tory of the power of the U.S. Open

    brand in major sports, BPAA

    Executive Director Steve Johnson

    called to the Expo stage a number

    of pioneering female bowling exec-

    utives and athletes to join him in

    delivering the historic announce-

    ment on the advent of the new,

    revitalized Bowlings U.S.

    Womens Open.

    This is a landmark announce-

    ment for bowling and for womens

    athletics there is no more presti-

    gious name in sports than the U.S.

    Open and no bigger venue than

    Cowboys Stadium. This event

    exemplifies both the surging popu-

    larity of bowling among women

    and the heightened consumer

    demand to watch and attend bowl-

    ing events, said Johnson.

    Anyone who has seen Bowlings

    U.S. Womens Open can attest that

    you will not find tougher, fiercer

    and more tenacious competitors.

    Also, through national television

    exposure, we are excited to now

    make Bowlings U.S. Womens

    Open more accessible to the public

    than ever before.

    Bowlings U.S. Womens Open

    will showcase the tournament lanes

    in the center of the Cowboys

    Stadium playing field, on each side

    of the 50-yard line. Additionally,

    the Open will be broadcast live on

    the stadiums famed 60-yard high

    definition video board, ensuring

    that all patrons in attendance have

    the best seat in the house.

    Bowlings U.S. Womens Open is

    sponsored by the Brands of Ebonite

    International and is open to all

    female youth and adult members in

    the United States. The finals will

    take place during the 2011

    International Bowl Expo which

    will draw more than 8,000 atten-

    dees from the bowling industry.

    Bowling Loses a Champion

    2/8

    LAS VEGAS - Standing before a crowd of several thousand

    bowling industry leaders from across the world, former

    Governor and Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah

    Palin gave a rousing keynote address at the 2010 International

    Bowl Expo. Highlighting the impact of bowling as the nation's

    number one participatory sport and a thriving industry, Palin

    brought the crowd to its feet during her 45 minute speech.

    Additionally, Palin spoke to the important role played by bowl-

    ing proprietors as business owners and community leaders, as

    well as the vital presence of bowling centers as social hubs in

    communities across the nation.

    "Bowling has an honored place in our culture and is interwov-

    en with our sense of community in our country. Go to any town

    or city and you will find bowling - it is truly a slice of

    Americana," said Palin. "Bowling has been able to evolve,

    innovate and capitalize on changes in culture to keep alive andflourish. Through the entrepreneurial spirit of its proprietors,

    bowling has seen a new resurgence and has never been more

    popular."

    During her keynote speech, Palin spoke of the societal influ-

    ence of bowling that spans generations of American life.

    Professing a personal appreciation for the bowling industry,

    Palin also noted that, during his high school years, her father

    Chuck Heath Sr. worked as a pin boy and that she herself has

    fond childhood memories of watching him play in this

    Thursday night bowling league.

    Additionally, as a mother and aunt to children born with dis-

    abilities, Palin took special note of the bowling industry's sup-

    port of the Special Olympics and thanked the proprietors in

    attendance for providing a healthy, positive environment to

    children with special needs.

    Following her speech, Palin joined Steve Johnson, executive

    director of the Bowling Proprietors' Association of America

    (BPAA), and a number of pioneering female bowling execu-

    tives and athletes in delivering a historic announcement of a

    new, revitalized Bowling's U.S. Women's Open in 2011.

    "Sarah Palin's comments about the impact of bowling ring

    true, no matter where you stand on the political spectrum.

    Bowling is a sport that knows no political or social boundaries

    - it is the embodiment of the American spirit and a healthy, fun

    and inclusive activity that brings together people from all walks

    of life," said Johnson. "Today Sarah Palin said that bowling

    helps make our country a better place and we couldn't agree

    with her more."

    The International Bowl Expo 2010 was held from June 27 to

    July 1 at the Las Vegas Hilton and Las Vegas Convention

    Center. Ms. Palin's keynote speech took place during the gen-

    eral session on the morning of June 30 at the Las Vegas Hilton.

    About Sarah Palin

    Sarah Palin first made history on December 4, 2006 when

    she was sworn in as the first female governor of Alaska. In

    August 2008, Senator John McCain tapped Palin to serve as

    his vice-presidential running mate in his presidential cam-

    paign, making her the first woman to run on the Republican

    Party's presidential ticket.

    In Alaska, her top priorities included fiscal restraint, limit-ing the size of government, resource development, education,

    equitable oil valuation as well as transportation and infra-

    structure development. Palin fought for ethics reform and

    transparency in government.

    Palin has a long record of achievement and experience in

    public office. Prior to her election as Governor, Palin served

    two terms on the Wasilla City Council and two terms as the

    mayor of Wasilla. During her tenure, she reduced property

    tax levels while increasing services and made Wasilla a busi-

    ness-friendly environment, drawing in new industry.

    Under her leadership as Governor, Alaska invested $5 bil-

    lion in state savings, overhauled education funding and pro-

    tected Alaska's natural resources. She created Alaska's

    Petroleum Systems Integrity Office to provide oversight and

    maintenance of oil and gas equipment, facilities and infra-

    structure and the Climate Change Subcabinet to prepare a cli-

    mate change strategy for Alaska.

    During Governor Palin's first year in office, three of her

    administrations major proposed pieces of legislation passed

    included an overhaul of the state's ethics laws, a competitive

    process to construct a natural gas pipeline and a restructuring

    of Alaska's oil valuation formula.

    Palin is past chair of the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact

    Commission, a multistate government agency that promotes

    the conservation and efficient recovery of domestic oil and

    natural gas resources while protecting health, safety and the

    environment. She also served as chair of the National

    Governors Association (NGA) Natural Resources

    Committee, which was charged with pursuing legislation to

    ensure state needs are considered as federal policy is formu-

    lated in the areas of agriculture, energy, environmental pro-

    tection and natural resource management.Sarah Heath Palin arrived in Alaska with her family in

    1964, when her parents came to teach school in Skagway.

    She received a Bachelor of Science Degree in

    Communications-Journalism from the University of Idaho in

    1987.

    She is married to Todd Palin, who is a lifelong Alaskan,

    worked as a production operator on the North Slope and is a

    four-time champion of the Iron Dog, the world's longest

    snow machine race. They have five children. She is the

    author of Going Rogue: An American Life, which was

    released in November, 2009.

    It was near midnight on a bitter-

    cold, snow-covered, moon-lit night

    in Passaic, New Jersey in January

    1944. I remember saying goodbye

    to my brother, Henry F. Hank

    Steinsiek, who had been drafted into

    the army seven months earlier at age

    18. I was 16, and we both had cele-

    brated his short leave from basic

    training at Fort Bliss, N.C. I had

    hugged him, said goodbye, and then

    lay down on my bed. He promisedto see our mother, my sister Terry,

    and me on a Washington's Birthday

    leave before shipping out.

    I thought for a minute, Damn, this

    might be the last time I would see

    him again for a very long time, so I

    got up and decided to go with him to

    the railroad station and see him off.

    I remember arriving at the smoke-

    filled train station (it seemed then

    that everyone smoked). The place

    was full of GI's and people, just like

    in a movie; some were waiting for

    the same train that would take them

    to New York. I was tired -- after all,

    we were celebrating earlier, and so I

    put my head on Hank's lap and we

    both fell asleep.

    We were awakened when the train

    arrived four hours late. We again

    hugged and said goodbye, not

    knowing it would be for the last

    time. Hank did not get leave on

    February 22 leave because he got to camp late due to the

    train's late arrival; instead, they assigned him "KP" (kitchen

    patrol) duty.

    He shipped out February 27, 1944, and in a little over two

    months, Hank landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day and was

    in the "Battle of the Bulge" at Bastogne. He went on to

    receive five stars, the French Award, and a commendation

    from President Franklin D. Roosevelt for shooting down the

    most enemy planes.

    Ironically, my brother died instantly on April 8, 1945 after

    receiving a stray bullet in the head from an American or

    German airplane that was in a dogfight over Gotha,Germany. He was buried in Eisenach, Germany.

    When the war was over, his body was moved to

    Margraten American Cemetery in Maastricht, the

    Netherlands. Meanwhile, I was out at sea, serving in the

    U.S. Merchant Marine and did not learn of his death until

    late May 1945.

    As the years passed, I occasionally promised myself that

    I would visit his grave. It may have been nearly 65 years

    later, but thanks to the American War Orphans Network

    (AWON), which got a donor to pay my way to Margraten,

    I learned last year that I was at long last going to get my

    opportunity.

    I was getting ready to make the trip this spring and went

    through a box my mom had saved with all of Hank's letters,

    his draft card, and the infamous Western Union telegram

    informing her of his death. It was then that I discovered two

    unopened letters she had written to him and were

    returned, marked Deceased. My mom hadnever opened them, but I decided right then that

    I would open and read them at his grave site.

    After my wife Jane and I arrived in Maastricht

    on Saturday, May 29, 2010, we went to our hotel

    room, unpacked, rested, and got ready for the

    visit to the cemetery. I could not sleep and kept

    getting up and looking out the

    window across the street,

    where I saw the Maastricht

    Train Station. It was very

    quiet, there was no one walk-

    ing, the trains were parked, as

    were hundreds of bicycles all

    over in bunches left their by

    student owners and others

    sometimes for years, I learned.

    There was a slight breezethat swept a newspaper across

    the street, and I wondered what

    it was like for our soldiers that

    invaded the Nazi forces, what

    they may have thought: Should

    we blow up the train station or

    try to save it?

    I finally dozed off.

    Jane and I were up and ready at 6

    a.m. We ate breakfast, then lined up

    and were put on a World War II Jeep

    along with other dignitaries in 14

    other vintage army trucks and staff

    cars with screaming sirens and

    horns in a parade to the cemetery.

    The Dutch people who lined the

    streets waved, and I gave them the

    famous Winston Churchill V forVictory sign, and they responded

    back in similar fashion.

    As we turned into the main gate of

    the cemetery, hundreds of people

    lined the sides of the entrance. My

    heart started to beat faster, and I felt

    a slight pain in my chest. I suddenly

    prayed, Oh no, please no heart

    attack, please God.

    When we arrived at the steps of

    the main entrance, Jane and I were

    provided with a driver and an elec-

    tric cart that slowly made its way to

    Plot A, Row 14, Grave 30 and

    stopped at a pure white marble cross

    with the inscription I had only seen

    in photographs: Henry F. Steinsiek,

    PFC 489 AAA AW BN New Jersey

    APR 8, 1945.

    I broke down and cried like a

    baby.

    I proceeded to open and begin

    reading the first of two returned let-

    ters from mom. Again, I broke down, but Gerry Morenski,

    our dedicated AWON director of the tour whose father is

    buried in Margraten, finished them for me, with Jane at my

    side along with a small crowd of supporters.

    I've always been very proud of Hank's accomplishments

    during the war but no more so than at this moment. He was

    indeed a member of the "Greatest Generation."

    Looking back now weeks later, I realized I was a long

    way from Passaic, New Jersey, but I finally got to be with

    my big brother again.
