Alta, Iowa has become famous over night; the reason is 79 year old Dale Davis.  Dale is blind, but man he can bowl, he bowled the first perfect game Century Lanes has ever seen - but I don't think it will be the last.  Dale bowls at Century Lanes located on Main Street in Alta.  Dale is a slight man, a veteran and he is legally blind.  His nickname is "The Hammer" and he spends his time with his sister Thelma and his little dog. 

Clem LeDoux, the owner of Century Lanes, is expanding and adding 4 more lanes and Dale has a new pair of bowling shoes he plans on try out as soon as the work is done.  That work should be completed this weekend, Dale will most assuredly be one of the first bowlers to try the new lanes out. 

Stay tuned for pictures of the new and improved Century Lanes Bowling Alley and Dale Davis, Alta Iowa's blind bowler.
