600 Hogs Believed to Have Per-

Chicago, Nov. 18.—Forty-one en-
gine companies early today fought a
fire in the heart of the stockyards,
where the front part of a four-story
building occupied by the canning and
hog killing departments of Armour
and company was gutted by the
flames.
Armour officials said that they be-
lieved about 600 hogs perished.
The rapids spread of the flames
which broke out in the canning de-
I artment on the second floor was at-
tributed to the grease soaked Interior
f the buildjpg.
Fire department officials said they
believed the fire was caused by spon-
taneous combustion. The flames were
confined to the one building which is
n the center of the Armour holdings.
Friday Mrs. Anderson had as her
guests Mr| George Haines and Mrs.
Rosenberg of Bristow and Mrs. Annie
Willis of Chandler. Mrs. Willis is the
County School Superintendent of Ijo
gan county and was re-elected to the
office in-the last election.
The Drumright High school eleven
was not at home yesterday when the
Bristow aggregation came to visit on
♦lie home grid. As a result, after the
inurdor was over, the tally sheet
fallowed a score of 2." to 0. Our lads
liad the 0.
Mud and Weight
In the history of Drumrlght's play-
ing this season this is the first dis-
aster. The boys are not wholly to be
olamed, for. as a seaman would say,
wind aj d tide were against them—
and they had a bit of a sea field.
It was the old, old story—bucking,
or rather being bucked by— a heavier
team on a wet field. The local lad*
didn't have a chance. Bristow came
here with a splendid team, from fif-
teen to 20 pounds heavier than the
Drumright lads, and trained to play
hall all the time.
Had the field been dry and ha<^
Drumright not been crippled by the
loss of three of the best first line men
then- might have been a chance to
beat the invader. As it was there was
mighty little chance.
Sans tractlo.n and loaded down with
mud the little home team was not
able to hold line, lads were not able
to run. they couldn't pass and they
couldn't tackle. They were lucky at
getting off as well as they did.
In the face of a team that could
push them all over the field, th.?/
tried to pass. Two of their passes
went straight to ristow players with
a clear field for the Drumright goal.
Bristow know how to get there.
That's All There Is
That's about all there is to it. It's a
pity, in the light of the record the
home boys have made so far—only
nine points scored against them In
two out of eight games. It was the
weather hitched to a handicap of
fiiteen or so pounds of jumping Bri.i
low weight.
That's all there is: there isn't anr
more.
