During the 30s the exchange was written up quite often in the KW Record newspaper. During this period the exchanges were held in January/February in Detroit and March in KW.

14th Exchange – January 1930 (First half – Detroit)

The exchange was held on Saturday, January 11, 1930 in Detroit. Here is the article published in the KW Record on Monday January 13, 1930. They included team members and scores.
The format at this exchange had curling in the morning, followed by lunch. The afternoon included sightseeing followed by dinner at the club. The final match was held in the evening. For some reason, the evening scores were quite high.
It is hard to read the scores: the morning totals were Kitchener 52, Detroit 54. The evening scores were Kitchener 68, Detroit 66. Overall it was a tie with 120 points each.
