  Bill Bowes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bill Bowes (William Eric Bowes; born July 25, 1908, Elland, Yorkshire, England; died 4 September 1987, Otley, Yorkshire, England) was one of the best bowlers of the inter-war period and for a time the most important force behind Yorkshire's dominance of the County Championship.
Bill Bowes began his cricket career for MCC in 1928, and gained most of his early experience with the Lord's ground staff.
Bowes was selected for the infamous "bodyline" tour of 1932/1933 but played in only one Test, in which he bowled Bradman first ball at the MCG but took no other wicket.

Not so Bowes; he went on trying and finally found the required hint in an obscure coaching manual, which told him it was all in the position of the feet at the moment of delivery.
When Bowes suggested that it might be a good thing if he were taught the rudiments of batting, he was told firmly that his job was to take wickets; he was not to waste his valuable strength on making runs.
In fact, although with his height Bowes naturally had a steeper rise than most bowlers, and was always prepared to bowl a bouncer, he did not rely on it as a regular form of attack and, as he gained in experience, used it less and less.

With 250,000 students spending between $300 and $400 per semester for books, waiving the 4 percent sales tax would cost the state $3 million to $4 million in revenue each time new classes begin, but provide some assistance to students and their parents, said University System Vice Chancellor Bill Bowes.
Bowes also recommended the board consider using the university system’s purchasing power, perhaps in collaboration with other states, to leverage lower textbook prices from national publishers.
The board, meeting in committees, did not act immediately on those recommendations, but informally approved a new policy giving Chancellor Thomas Meredith authority to set guidelines designed to ensure students have the broadest possible range of options and the lowest possible prices.
