Buckeye Open  Imperial Lanes, Toledo, Ohio, Mar 2-6, 1971  Weber
Wins By 2. . .Wins No. 22  Dick Weber's second victory of the
year, was also his 22nd lifetime and the man he
victimized-237-235-in the final match was none other than his
brother-in-law, and fellow St. Louisan, Norm Meyers. It had been
eight years since Meyers' first (and only) PBA triumph and the
handsome righthander seemed poised for victory. But . . .  Weber
ran through Don Russell (who advanced by whipping Don McCune)
and then Wayne Zahn. In each instance the score was close, and
that was the theme in the battle for first place money of
$7,000, The pair stayed within pins of each other and when Weber
finished, Meyers had to strike on his last shot to win. Norm
left the 4-7 and the struggle at Imperial Lanes was over.
Meyers, who led through 40 games, with a 13-3 match.game record
and 8689 pinfall had to settle for second place money of $4,000.
