Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2001 16:03:10 -0500

Bloomington (IN) Daily Telephone, May 1, 1908, p. 1.

The Great International bowling game will be installed in the room next to
Hotel Tourner. Clean sport--enjoyment for all. Public invited.

This game has the pleasantable (sic) features of ten pins, without the
accompanying violent exercise.

Four alleys will be installed which will be enough to accommodate all who
desire to play.

The game consists of ten frames of 30 balls. For ladies as well as
gentlemen. Tuesday afternoons will be devoted to ladies and ladies with
escorts.

Thursday afternoons will be devoted entirely to ladies.

E. E. McFerren, Mgr.
