During WW2, the Western was abandoned. Maggie Strong was the president. In 1948, she had a planning luncheon of hot dogs and endive and invited Jean Trainor, Jean Giambrone and Maxine Forman. To reaffirm a new beginning, The Buffalo News presented a sterling trophy and yearly prize money of $250 for a 2-day competition called the Partner’s Better Ball. |
