the same aggregation that they had IN

Vanderbilt too, all incorporates, are
on President Bakers list. New nrsC

Olxlahoma's Club.
A perusal of the bond which Man
ager Barnes of oklahoma City has
signed, makes the reader look for the
label, lola And there is plenty OF
reason for the inspiration. Nine OF
Iola's cracks who won the pennant
for "Old Man. Tholen last year were
sold to Oklahoma City with the fran
chise. One of the surprises is that
Jimmie Prick will be in the Western
association circuit again this year. II

The Windy City Team
The first shock that one receives in
looking over Wichita's prospects is to
see the name of Cyrus Stinson, the
"Rube Waddellv of the Missouri Valley
league. And then there appears few
old Pirate names, for Wichita bought
Pittsbtrg's franchise. McLear and Muir

hard to get the former. The prospec-

O'Brien, Stinson, pitchers; Franz, frst
base: Howell. second base; McLear,
shortstop; Allen, third base; Murray,
