Has Made Reputation as Pitcher in
the Big Leagues.

Clemson College, Jan. While
basket ball and foot ball are holding
chi"f places just now at Clemson
there is beginning to be considerable
interest manifested in base bah. 1t
is practically certain that NcddCr Sit
ton will be the base bail coach this
spring. Sijton aHd Sadler wore trr
TWO greatest ends Clemson ever pu,
out perhaps in foot ball. They were
chosen all-Southcrn in their dav,
back about 1903. Ncdder Sitton and
his brother. Phil, are two Of the best
pitchers that Clemson has ever had.
Both Of them have been with the big
leagues. Last year they were in
Troy, y. Y, where they made good
records.
t"W years ago Ncdder Sitton had
the distinction Of pitching the games
that won two pcnnantS in the same
season. lie pitched the final game in
the South Atlantic League that

What Oil VIII D..

One Of the most successful oil
companies ever organized n Oklaho-
ma is the Coline Oil company, which
was organized here prior to the drill .
ing in of the initial we'll in the
Healdton field.
Twelve original members Of the
company paid into the company s175
each, a company was organized with
capital stock of $4,000, to each
member was issued $4,000 worth OF
the stock. One dividend has been
declared of % per cent, which pays
TO each one $500, which is almost
three times the investment and the
stock held by each member now is
valued conservativelya at 100000.
1t is not often that a man can in
vest sl75 and get in return 100000,
but that very thing happened in the
organization of the Coline Oil COM
bers have disposed of a portion of
their stock, and one or more has sold
out entirely.
The original investors in the com
pany are p. c. Dings, Chas. Won
Weise, d. c. Fitzgerald. T. II. Dunn,
J. l.. Hamon, John Ringing, A. j.
Hemstreet, Max Westheimer, Simon
Westheimer. c. +. Sykes Homer Hin
kle and c. F. Adams. The company
has eleven wells with daily pro-
duction of 1000 barrels. and has 435
acres in the proven field. and has
other acreage which may be de-
yeloped into oil territory before the
end OF the year.

refinery with a capacity of about
5000 barrels. About fifteen men who
have been working on the refinery
here, have been released.
Wade Johnson, an experienced re-
finer has been made superintendent
OF the plant here. and II. J. Witz has
been placed in charge of the office.
Mr. Males has made many friends
while in Ardmore, who will regret to
learn of his departure. The refinery
is making runs regularly now, and
while the company has issued no
statements concerning the enlarge
ment of the plant, the general un-
derstanding is that it will be made
into a much bigger plant within the
near future

NJ 4. billiard and T. VI. Dees OF
Midlothian, Texas, are Ardmore Wis
itors. These gentlemen are men,
bers OF the Thelma Oil company which
owns a pipe line from its lease in
the Healdton field to Ringing. They
are here comforting with the officials
of the Ringing road to get rates
made on oil shipments to Texas
points. The interstate rates from
Ringing have been established to but
few Texas points and a rate is
needed to intermediate points For
instance, there is rate to Fort
Worth and a rate to Galveston. but
to points Intermediate no rates have
been published This is due to the
fact that Ringing is a new town
and also to the fact that oil shipping
is a new industry to this portion of
the country.
The Thelma people are shipping on
an average about two cars of oil a
day These shipments will probably
be increased to ten cars. when rates
are established The oil is being
usd for fuel without being skinned
but so far only pond oil has been
shipped This pond, or earthen stor-
age oil has a gravity Of 27 Fresh
oil shipments have been begun late

fuel. Mr. Foster will own his own
tank car and will build a storage
tank at this plant to store oil in
for use as fuel.
The Thelma people have made
sales to industries located in Dallas,
Waco. Sherman and Denison. When
asked if the Healdton producers could
build lines. find markets and ship
their own oil, Mr.. Dees stated that
in his opinion they could not for
the reason that purchasers of crude
will not depend upon men not known
