Steinfeldt New Eastern National Crown Holder

 

    Carl Steinfeldt of Rochester, NY, won the Eastern National Horseshoe crown with a victory over Canadian champ Elmer Hohl at the Glenwood pits. 

    Steinfeldt posted a 90.6 percentage of ringers in the long, hard-fought match, which decided the title.  Earlier Erie’s Wes Kuchcinski had handed Hohl his first defeat in the double elimination affair.

    Steinfeldt’s lone loss was to Jim Solomon of Uniontown, Pa.

    Sam Sutton, Washington, Pa., posted a 76.4 ringer average to sweep Class AA.  Herman Boyer of Beaver Falls won the Class A title while Bob Bird of Pittsburgh led in Class B.
