Sports, perhaps, but Dawn, no, as that model has rod brakes in that drawing. I do have to say that the saddle on the on yours looks like an old Terry saddle from the 1930s. Those 50s bikes were outfitted with Brooks B66 saddles. Here's my 1937 Sports "C" Tourist. Note that it has the shifter on the top tube, and yours, I think, has one on the bars. That might not mean its younger--I picked up a 1939 "Popular" lady's model, which at some point in the 50s someone had replaced to quadrant shifter with a handlebar variant. You'll have a clearer idea once you can check that rear hub.
