Tyrus Cox Home Hosts Bridge Parties on Travis Street
Twenty four guests attended a buffet bridge supper at the newly remodeled Tyrus Cox home on Travis Street Monday evening. Mrs. Cox and Mrs. Laurie Wells organized courses and serving duties. Prizes were awarded to top players, with several repeat winners noted among both women and men. The piece also mentions Texas yacht trade and early Texas oil history in brief, drifting from the party report to a dated historical aside.
