Call-Post: Russ Cowens Of the
Chronicle takes exception /
TO our mention Of Sarah Siurdivant 1,
as the best woman bowler, and in
sists that Virginia Dolphin is the
best in the country. in the opinion
OF those in Detroit We stand
ready to support that belief he
crows. adding that Sarah is a fine
little girl. a good sportswoman, and
an excellent bowler, but ! do not
believe she is capable OF defeating
Mrs Dolphin Well. brother. sounds
like you're making challenge. and
want US to let 'em bowl il out and
prove il! And wouldn't we have
fun. reporting IL as A Tale OF Two
Cities. even though our original ac-
coun, was a local report and re-
ferred only 10 Sturdvani's proves
in the Cleveland picture. we're not
going 10 let anything like that stand
in the way Of national fame for
Cleveland. In other word, We were
perfectly satisfied 10 let Sash be
the best bowler in Cleveland, but
as long as you believe Dolphin is
the best IN the country, il would
be a simple after TO let Sarah
beat your Mrs. Dolphin, and thus
become the best IN the country.
Yes sir. we'll have 10 arrange a
match, Russ Cowans"
