IT IS A FACT
VVorth.v of the earnest consideration and grateful pride
of the people of this entire state that its law governing
Guaranty 1-und State Banks has proven of such benefit
to all the people.
There’s a just reason for the pride we feel in operating
under a law that provides for the absolute protection of
depositors.

Basket Ball Games
So far. Lone Wolf High School
has been defeated by nnlv two
teams in the boys game and one
in the girls game. The boys
have five decisive victories to
their credit, victories won from
schools of e qual or higher stand-
•ng among wlrm are Clinton,
Hobart, and Gotebo.
High School I a ket Ball is a
game that has always b-en very
popular with the athletic enthu-
thusiasts of our town and com-
munity. It is a clean gamp when
played that way. ar d we have
always tried to keep it that wa
from the time that Lone Wolf
was runner-up for state cham-
pionsh.p in 19l4 Ju that year
Lone Wolf was defeated for the
,itie bv Ma<-kwell High School
at Norman.
Th’s jear Lone Wolf High
school is in the Oklahoma Ath-
etic Conference entitling them
o play for any honors as long as
eligibility rules are met, So far
they have been met. as the play-
ers on both girls and boys teams
have attended school the re-
quired time and have made pass-
ing grades in their school sub
jects.
We again have a chance for
Southwestern Oklahoma Basket
Ball championship if not state
championship. But in order to
win we must have the support
and attendance of the people of
this town and community.
The next, games will be played
on the local court in the high
school attic against Grani’e High
