About 800 representatives from
state high schools to the Oklahoma
Hi-Y convention are expected to be
here January 31, and February 1 and
2, when the youths gather for their
annual meeting. Because of the lim-
ited housing facilities in Stillwater,
it has been found necessary to limit
the delegations from each school, ac-
cording to announcement of C. T.
Main, chairman of the local Hi-Y ad-
visory council. The largest assem-
blage of Hi-Y boys in the past was
500.
The convention sessions will be
held in the Oklahoma A. and M. col-
lege auditorium. A majority of the
drlegates will be junior and senior
bovs. The college is making every
effort possible to acquaint the visit-
ors with the many advantages of the
institution.
In connection with the Hi-Y as-
semblage will be a meeting of the
state Y. M. C. A. committee, accord-
ing to George Bullock, “Y” secretary
at the college. Representatives of
Oklahoma universiy, Oklahoma City
university, Southeastern State Teach-
ers’ college, Phillips universitv and
Oklahoma Baptist university will
tend the Y, M. C. A. meeting.

The accident Sunday drives home
the city ordinance against the use
of sleds within the city environs. Po-
lice officials are enforcing the law
forbidding the attaching of sleds to
automobiles. The driver is held as
responsible as the sleigh-riders, in
the opinion of Chief of Police O. W.
Sellers. The city ordinance in ques-
tion reads: “It shall be unlawful for
any person traveling upon any bi-
cycle, motorcycle, coaster, sled, rol'er
skates or any toy bicycle to cling to
or attach himself or his vehicle to
any other moving vehicle or streetcar
upon any highway or roadway.”

TULSA—Former Governor M. E.
Trapp was urged to enter the guber-

tion signed by 623 Oklahoma peace
officers was presented Tuesday night
at a banquet in the Tooaz room of
the New Tulsa hotel. The petition
was tendered the ex-governor by O.

The November convention of the
Oklahoma Municipal League en-
dorsed the short course at A. and M.
college for public officials, such as
the water and sewage school, and
this short course has become recog-
nized as very helpful.
The November convention also
passed resolutions thanking Presi-
dent Bennett, the A. and M. college
and the city of Stillwater for their
many kindnesses to the league.
J. W. Reece, as the past president
of the league, initiated tha movement
for chamber of commerce affiliation
with the league in order that the
nublic officials hear from the non-
officer citizen, and the chamber of
commerce representatives voted that
the league make the affiliation per-
manent.
The league also asked the A. and
M. college to provide additional short
courses for public officia’s.
J. W. Reece is one of the trustees
of the league, and a meeting of the
committee is called to meet January
18 to take up matters of additional
short courses to request of the col-
lege. The way seems open for short
courses in zoning and traffic
tions, public utility rates and
tion; ad valorem, local and
taxes.
The Stillwater Building and Loan
association began the new year by
increasing its capital stock from $2,-
000,000 to $3,000,000, at a meeting
of its stockholders last week.
This association is keeping pace
with substantial gro wth bring made
by Stillwater, and is having a hand
in making Sti Iwater a city of home-
owners, and the association is look-
ing forward to a prosperous year,
and this increase in capital stock is
made to meet the d inands of an in-
crease in business.
Other business transacted at the
stockholders’ meeting was the elec-
tion of officers.
Raymond H. Moore was elected
manager, succeeding his father, G.
E. Moore, who has been manager
since the organization of the associa-
tion about 10 years ago. G. E. Moor'
will be chairman of the loan board
and first vice-president.
Other officers are W. D. Bentley,
president; M. W. Stark, second vice-
president; George Dollinger, treasu-
rer; Leo Thomas secretary.
W. D. Bentley, Ed T. Thatcher, W.
M. Stark and Raymond II. Moore

Weather of Year on Wednesday
Night; Additional Flurries Indi-

With an additional 2-inch layer of
snow after continued flurries Wed-
nesday, Payne county today looked to
the weatherman for warmer tem-
peratures—but to no avail. The offi-
cial weather forecast for today read,
“fair and continued cold.”
The coldest day of the winter, and
one of the coldest in years, was ex
perienced Wednesday night, when
the mercury hovered about the zero
mark. With the approach of dawn
the weather moderated and the ap-
pearance of Old Sol a few hours
brought cheer into snowbound fami-
lies.
Highways throughout the county
continue to be passable, but no melt-
ing is renorted.
Official attention has been called
that the best interest of safety de-
mands chains and slower driving.
Merchants and home-owners are co-
operating in keeping sidewalks
clear.
Gas pressure is being maintained
splendidly in the time when a real
test is placed upon the mains. Mayor
G. M. Thompson’s prediction that the
fuel supply problem is solved seems
fulfilled. Local plumbers continue to
be rushed, as is the case with every
freezing spell. Telephone service re-
mains undisrupted.
Northeastern Oklahoma felt the
low temperature of the week Wed-
nesday. Additional flurries were
promised for today.
The cold wave is attributed to the
Rocky mountain region, where 28 de-
grees below zero weather has not
been uncommon. Several motorists,
st ran i led in the huge snowdrifts
blocking the highways, were rescued
and taken to nearby hospitals. Cas-
per, Wyo., with 28 below; Great
Falls, Mont., with 26 b>low, and
Sheridan, W’yo., with 24 below, were
the coldest points reported.

Deer Destroying
State Crops
OKLAHOMA CITY—The legisla-
ture, not the state game and fish
department, will have to determine
what disposition should be made of
the dier herd in Major county, which
has brought complaints from farm-
eis that crops and trees are being
destroyed by hungry animals during
the winter season. V an Montgomery,
state game and fish warden, said
that, while two investigato-s for the
department had found that the deei
have caused considerable damage,
the department can do nothing but
enforce state game laws. These pro-
hibit the shooting of deer by anyone

The committee reported the mak-

An appeal was made Wednesday
by Vai Schott, president of the Izaak <
Walton League, in behalf of the
quail during the time the ground is
covered with sleet and snow.
Farmers and members of the
league were asked to feed the Bob
Whites. Mr. Schott found this is be-
ing done by many farmers and
sportsmen from town, but he is anx-
ious that others join in the task.
From present indications the
ground will be covered for some time
and an organized effort should be
made to see that every covey in the
county has sufficient feed to prevent
starvation.
Farmers interested in protecting |
the birds should get in touch with
Mr. Schott and let him know wbnt
they are doing or willing to do in
conjunction with the league.
