Summary

[edit]
Description
English: B'nai Brith is a national Jewish philanthropic and service organization that was founded in the United States in the mid-1800s.In addition to advancing the welfare of Jews in secular society, BB provides social and recreational opportunities for men and women by sponsoring sports teams, typified by the popular bowling leagues of the 1950s and 1960s. American bowling has Jewish roots: Louis B. Stein (1858-1949) helped organize the American Bowling Congress in 1895. An outstanding bowler, Stein established 300 as the score in tenpin bowling and determined that the weight of the ball should be 16 pounds, setting standards that continue to the present day.
