The Palm saloon was listed at this address in the 1911-12 Polk Cheyenne City Business Directory, without bowling I presume.
Louis C Sharp was the proprietor of the lanes through September 1913, when Albert E. Murphy became the manager. Several matches took place here between the local Cheyenne bowlers and the Fort Russell bowlers. J. H. Whaley requested from the city council a rebate on the unused portion of the license for two bowling alleys in November 1913. |
