It was to be his only loss for the whole year 1968!!! He went undefeated at the Greenville Classic, the World Tournament, plus both the Canadian and North American Championships. It took 176 shoes to beat Elmer in this only loss. They had 57 four deads, including 11 in a row while the score was 47-29! Both players turned it on (so to speak) in the last 54 shoes where Elmer had 51 ringers and Danny 52 out of 54! When Danny reached 47, Elmer fired 15 consecutive doubles but scored only 3 points out of it!
