Athlete and spelling bee

[edit]

Are these the same people? Could possibly be, if national spelling bee included older contestants then.

If so, should change disambiguation line to a mention of that in the text.

If not, should remove the spelling bee category here.

Facts and Myths

[edit]

Something is wrong here. The article currently states that Betty Robinson couldn't walk properly for two years. I'm looking at a newspaper article from April 28, 1932, 10 months after the accident, that already has her working out at Northwestern U. and doing some running. There is now a second published biography about Robinson, surely someone who has it can move this article a little closer to reality. It's a remarkable story -- no need to embroider.
