Ben was the proprietor of the Syracuse Bowling Center back in 1941, when it became the fifth bowling center in the U.S. to be equipped with automatic pinsetters. He also did a lot of work for bowling behind the scenes serving as president of both the New York State and National Bowling Proprietors Associations. He was the originator of the New York State Junior bowling championships in 1960. In 1960, he also chaired the committee that obtained passage of a bill allowing children under the age of sixteen to bowl in New York State.
