AUBURN #- For nearly 60 years, one way or the other, Lou Chomyk has been involved in Auburn bowling, a career that began almost accidentally.

“I was 15 or so,” Chomyk said. “I was hanging around the Polish Home waiting for some of the guys to get done and the owner asked me if I wanted to spot pins. I told him I didn't know anything about it and he told me there would be someone there to show me what to do, and that was what first really got me into bowling.”

Chomyk spent several years at the Polish Home setting pins and working his way up to head pin boy, keeping up the alleys and oiling the lanes and even participating in some practices that have long since fallen by the wayside.
