Multnomah Club On This Day In Oregon

On this day in 1896, the Morning Oregonian ran this story:

"Women Beat the Men"

"Eight of the gentler sex made things extremely interesting for eight male bowlers of the Multnomah Club, last night in the mixed bowling tournament held in the club's alleys, bowling strike for strike and spare for spare along with the men, and they finished the tournament by giving the men a bad beating by a score, including the handicap, of 1128 to 998."
