VORMAN. OKLAHOMA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 5 1920.
PRICE FIVE CENTS
ItiBERMAN TO JOIN
ARDMORE LAW FIRM
Nine Weeks Treatment In Govern-
ment Hospital Does Little Good,
War Veteran Says.
John P. Toberinan, disabled ex-
service man who has lived in Norman
since his youth, will move to Ard-
more this week to become associate-
at-law with the firm of Coakley &
Mathi rs, attorneys.
Toberman is a law graduate of 1915
who took post-graduate work here
until called to war without practicing
law previous to this time.
Nine weeks' treatment in the gov-
ernment hospital at Houston, Tex.
was tried in vain this summer. Heat
which must be used in the treatmen
of rheumatism, merely inflamed hi
neuritis with which the rheumatisn
in his case is complicated. Tobermai
declared that he returned worse thai
he felt when he went.
This complication of maladies wa
brought on by exposure in developini
uaboratories of the photographic ai
service on hte Meuse-Argonne fron
in the fall of 1918.
He explained that his section of th<
service was depleted in numbers and
the men had to rotate through th<
duties of observer, printer of map pic-
tures, developer of film and developer
of pictures in order to avoid poison-
ing in the developing rooms. He stay-
ed on that job too long.
Hospital doctors told him that it
would likely be two years before the
weakened nerve centers began to show
much improvement.
Miss Esther Grimes entertained
with a slumber party Monday even-
ing at her home on West Main street,
and Mrs. C. L. Grimes chaperoned the
merry bunch to a line party at the
Liberty theatre, followed by a lun-
cheon at her home. Her guests were
Misses Martha Lee Griffin, Clarice
Hadsell, Blanche Baggett, Dorothy
Frank, Ena May. Gladys Pierce Hel-
en Wolford, Jennie May Snow of Tul-
sa and Phyllis Coffield of Areola, 111.

FuUT BALL CAPTAIN
IS WELL TRAINED
Dewey Luster Kicks Pigskin Around
Every Afternoon; Deacon Helped
Out One Day.
! CHICKASHA, Aug. 3.—(Special)
How does a university captain-elect
I who is working indoors every day.
| keep in training so that he will be in
1 condition September 16 when the
■ 1920 Sooner football practice starts?
! Dewey Luster, who will pilot the
1920 University of Oklahoma eleven,
spends his working hours in a local
store—but after worl< Snorter forgets
business.
J Weights, a punching bag, an old
football and a few miles of country
roads are all tfiat the Sooner end
i asks for.
i Last spring he spent an hour each
forenoon bewteen classes, on Boyd
| field, over at the state universif"
punting an old football. He prefers
I to work alone when training this way.
so he can get the exercise of shag-
ging the hall always bringing it to the
same place to kick from.
Earl Deacon 1919 Sooner captain,
visited Snorter recently for a day or
two. Deac could not resist the tem-
ptation to wallow bis successor as
team leader round a bit. so they found
a soft place on The Luster lawn -"d
Snorter trained a little more than us-
ual that day
SAYS BULLETINS WERE
APPRECIATED GREATLY
No One Real zed A'.l The Work Took
To Arrange It, One Who Was
There Writes Back.
Editor of Transcript - I wish
von could have heard all the nice
things that the people said last
night about our good little Daily
and how kind <>i the whole force
t" arrange for the returns, so that
the people could see and hear.
lint I don't really believe any-
one hardly realizes all the work
it took to arrange it It was
something to be proud of and T
hope every one vMio enjoyed it
will try to do a good turn for
the best Daily on the map.
Success to the Daily Trans-
cript.
ONE WHO WAS THERE.
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Johnson, Mrs. Phil
Kidd, Misses Froma and Arline
Johnson and Mary Lelia Kidd will
leave the last of the week by auto-
mobile for Bella Vista, Ark., where
they will spend several days with Mrs.
Kidd at her summer home.
Miss Lina Bryan of Nelson passed
through Norman Wednesday enroute
to Colorado, where she will join her
aunt and cousins and take lr th.
places of Interest in Colorado until
the fall.
Miss Mary Everett returned to her
home in Granite Wednesday morn-
ing after visiting Misses Leola and
Louise Atkissin for two weeks The
Misses Atkisson accompanied her to
the city.
Mr. and Mrs. Phil Kidd bought
the bungalow at 113 West Boyd street
from Mr. and Mrs. M. T. Myers Mon-
day. Mr Kidd bought the property
as an investment.
Mr and Mrs. C. W. Vaughn return-
ed from a two weeks' visit in Colo-
rado Tuesday evening. They report
a splendid time
Though the returns were not as
complete and did not come in as
quickly as we would liked ,it was the
editor's first primary in this county,
and by 1922 he will be better able
I to make the board a success.
! At that time, the paper will start
about a month ahead^of the primary
and have an air-tight organization
built_up by election time. A repre-
sentative of tlie Transcript will be
j sent into every precinct and instructed
! to phone in immediately after the
votes are counted.
Some little confusion arose this
time, due, we learn, to the fact that
the newspapers had never handled
; returns in such a manner before.
A special wire will be put iu this
1 fall to get the general election re-
turns.
Miss Edith Newblock gave a clum-
ber party Saturday evening followed
by a swim at Doll's park Sunday
morning. Her guests were Misses
Ruth Gray, Ruth Ferguson, Celesta
Frost, Ida Smith, and Louise Ven-
■ tress.
