The El Reno Fireflies arrived In
Shawnee yesterday morning on
train No. 44 accompanied by a bunch
of El Reno fans. Both teams de-
cided to play the game rain or
shine.
The teams crossed bats at Ben6on
Park at 2 p. m. for a ball game that
was hotly contested. Pitcher Perry
for tie visitors, had all kinds of
curves, but the shop men had their
batting eye on the ball and made
hits when hits meant runs and won
the game.
Pitcher Coley for the home team,
pitched a star game, shutting the
visitors out when hits meant runs.
Both teams played good ball and the
fans who attended the game in the
storm were perfectly satisfied.

lawyer he was successful. For twen-
ty years he has ranked as one if
the leading lawyers of Oklahoma
From 1906 to 1910 he was chairman

but as a seasoned veteran, bearing
on his body the ocars of many con-
tlicts.
