From a newspaper clipping
Tierney-Wheat alleys:

The score was made in a handicap game with Clark McConnaha who was giving Billie a big handicap which wasn't needed. Billie Luce's 254 was made from scratch. She started with a double, left the No. 10 pin, failed to pick up the spare, and then hit seven strikes in a row."

Member of the First Baptist Church of Peculiar and the Homemakers Club of Peculiar.

Preceeded in death by her husband, Earl, brothers Alva and Victor Luce.
