MAYBERRY TAKES THE TEST
Committee Will Look After Highway
Between Vinita and Tulsa.

Special to Tho World.
CLAREMORE, Okla, July 6-At
the MONDAY luncheon of the directors
of the Claremore commercial club
Mrs. A. l.. Minyard, secretary of the
club, and Il. Il. Woods. a prominent
Claremore business man, were made a
committee to look into the matter of
securing federal aid on the piece of
road between Vinita and Tulsa If the
government decides to build military
road thru this section.
1t is believed here that should the
United States consider the building of
such a road thru this vicinity on the
way to Mexico that the most direct
route would be chosen. II this be so
then the piece of road between Vinita
and Tulsa, a part of the southern
route in competition for the Ozark
trail, should be given serious con-
sideration by the government as 1t is
the most direct route between the
given points, Vinita and Tulsa. There
is at present between these two towns
q good road all the way.

APPLE CIDER HEARING SET
Trial Of Injunction Suit Filed by

Hearing on the Injunction petition
filed by II. N. Ames, proprietor of
the Jitney Buffet, to restrain the city
from molesting him in the pursuit of
his apple cider business has been
set for July 81 in the district court.
Ames, whose place of business was
raided by the police about a month
ago. instituted injunction proceedings
shortly afterwards, but until recently
the ease had never been set for trial.
1t is probable that similar petitions
before Judge Breckenridge will be
heard before the Ames case comes up.
