would do the most good that gave
the Chicks 10 to victory in the
merriest swatfest seen this year on
the local yard.
Baron Drappo de Hayes, with his
big bludgeon, led the Chicks attack
as goes the heavy artillery. In the
fifth, with the score to / favoring
Okmulgee and with Neusel and Poo
law on. Drap picked one out. laid
the ash against It and knocked that
pill high and dry over center field

coup sheckles to the tune of about
45 smacks.
Draps dad, NJ E. Hayes of Little
Rock, was in the stands and wit
messed his sons spectacular wallop.
"Well,' quoth Hayes senior as the

elongated party who answers to the
