Tim Harahan shook off a swollen thumb to capture his second PBA championship in the $30,000 Tucson-Squirt Open. Harahan, who was forced out of the previous week's tourney by a bad thumb after six games, totalled 9,190 for the 40-game grind. This included 400 bonus pins he picked up for winning eight of his 16 match games in the finals. Ralph Engan was second with 9,036. Don Russell, 21-year-old collegian from San Diego, supplied the big thrill of the tourney when he rolled his first 300 game. 40-GAME FINALS | |  | Name, City/State | | Pins | | WLT | | + | | Tot | | Amt | | | 1 | | Tim Harahan, Encino, Calif. | | 8790 | | 8-8-0 | | 400 | | 9190 | | $3,000 | | 2 | | Ralph Engan, Monsey, N.Y. | | 8411 | | 12-3-1 | | 625 | | 9036 | | 1,600 | | 3 | | Billy Hardwick, Louisville, Ky. | | 8441 | | 10-6-0 | | 500 | | 8941 | | 1,400 | | 4 | | Don Helling, St. Louis, Mo. | | 8473 | | 8-8-0 | | 400 | | 8873 | | 1,200 | | 5 | | Allie Clarke, Ravenna, Ohio | | 8373 | | 9-7-0 | | 450 | | 8823 | | 1,100 | | 6 | | Don McCune, Munster, Ind. | | 8235 | | 11-5-0 | | 550 | | 8785 | | 1,050 | | 7 | | Jim Godman, Hayward, Calif. | | 8195 | | 10-6-0 | | 500 | | 8695 | | 1,000 | | 8 | | Dick Ritger, Hartford, Wis. | | 8274 | | 8-8-0 | | 400 | | 8674 | | 950 | | 9 | | Fred Lening, Yardley, Pa. | | 8273 | | 7-9-0 | | 350 | | 8623 | | 900 | | 10 | | Don Johnson, Kokomo, Ind. | | 8220 | | 8-8-0 | | 400 | | 8620 | | 860 | | 11 | | Don Glover, Bakersfield, Calif. | | 8269 | | 7-9-0 | | 350 | | 8619 | | 800 | | 12 | | Pete Tountas, Tucson, Ariz. | | 8221 | | 6-8-2 | | 350 | | 8571 | | 750 | | 13 | | Jack Major, Vancouver, Canada | | 8264 | | 6-10-0 | | 300 | | 8564 | | 700 | | 14 | | Don Russell, San Diego, Calif. | | 8235 | | 5-10-1 | | 275 | | 8510 | | 650 | | 15 | | Dale Seavoy, Birmingham, Mich. | | 8200 | | 4-12-0 | | 200 | | 8400 | | 625 | | 16 | | Dick Battista, Astoria, N.Y. | | 7988 | | 7-9-0 | | 350 | | 8338 | | 600 | |
