She also won the 1,000 m race, as well as the overall bronze medal, at the Unofficial World Allround Championships in Oslo, Norway in 1935.
Note that the World Allround Championships of 1935 were unofficial.
At the 1936 first official World Allround Speed Skating Championships for Women in Stockholm, Sweden, Klein won gold.
After the 1936 Winter Olympics, Klein toured Europe before sailing home.
During the voyage home Klein actually threw her skates overboard to mark her retirement from competitive skating.
Towards the end 1936, she married Dr. Thomas "Tom" Outland of Sayre, Pennsylvania and the couple settled down in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
For a while, Klein toured around North America with the Ice Follies skating show.
