Col. Thomas II Dwyer. who recently

this morning that everywhere he went
the fankers from abroad, and from
other sections of Oklahoma, were loud
in their praise of Chickasha and of
the manner in which they had been en-

There were five separate meetings
of as many groups OF the association,
and many OF the bankers OF the state

Chickasha also surpassed all others.
Col. Dwyer stated, in the number in
attendance at the meeting. There were
bankers here not alone from every

another Buick, was second, max
ing the run in five hours and
forty-fve minutes. A. D. Hop
kins, of Guymon, Okla, driving
a Ford, was third, making the
run in six hours and eight min

only five finished.
Liberal was filled to capacity
with motorists to watch the

at 5000 people. Nj. W. bailey, a
Hutchinson movie man, took
pictures of the start. All the
drivers drove at top speed, de-
spite the mud and rough roads,
due to the recent freeze. At
times the big cars were able to
run a mile a minute, along other
stretches they had to go into low.
Near Minneola the roads we're

Accidents were many, the
worst occurring to Billy Orr,
driving Buick. His mechanic
ian, Bailey. sustained severe ID
juries and Orr was hurt. Sew
eral others skidded into poles
and curbings, but no serious in
juries occurred. Il. D. Magee,
of Hutchinson, driving a Chevrc.
let, went into a mudbole near
Minneola and was put out of the
running by an hour and a half
delay.
