the circuit on Monday. The special
stopping places on the trip were Wien

ISOLATION:
now as to the full circuit changes,
safely be said that there will be no
sweeping discontinuances of the pres
ent cities holding membership.
"Rumors have gone out that al
most every town in the circuit would
be replaced by some others, but these
stories have emanated from mere
speculation on the part of different
sport writer's about the circuit, and
They are such as usually float about
during the winter season. 1 never saw
quite so many enthusiastic and hard

throughout the circuit of the Western

gestions.

come out in dispatches from Okla

that the transfer of the lola club and
franchise to that place has not been
contaminated. 1t is true that negotfa-
lions are on for the location of two

places will succeed lola and Fort
