1914 and 1937
Bowling: A Mishawaka bowling league was rolling league matches at a local alley in March 1914, documented in the South Bend News-Times of 10 March 1914; the alley's name is garbled in the surviving scan and is not guessed here. The Belgian bolling of the BK Club is a different game and belongs to Culture.
Boxing: Mishawaka's documented boxing record has one name, and it is a good one: George Gulyanics, the Cavemen fullback, won the South Bend Golden Gloves welterweight championship in 1937, a year before he was named an Indiana All-State fullback — the fighter before the halfback. His full record stands in the football pros entry below. No Mishawaka boxing card, venue or second fighter surfaced in the record reached; the Tribune and Enterprise morgues are the settling sources.
