right franchise in the w. A.. Is un
decided whether he will sell his
franchise or put team In the field
again next year. Baseball fell fiat
here during the year and Cahiil
bought the franchise for song from
o. j. Keylor who put the Drumright
team In the field In 1920.
Cahil disposed of his best men
after taking charge Of the club
and the team was shot to pieces at
the end Of the season, finishing in
last place after dropping q
straight games and establishing a
new worlds record for consecutive
defeats.
Only Dick Crittenden. veteran
catcher, was kept on Cahll's pay
roll 1t is thought that the Drum
right franchise owner bought the
White Sox purely as an investment
and is looking about for some town
that wants to break into the w. "A.
in 1922.
While Cahil has not announced
his plans as yet fans are under the
impression that several towns in
the district are confabbing with
Cahill for his franchise. 1t is knowi1
that there are Oklahoma towns that
are anxious to get w. A. fran
chise and If Cahll's price for his
teams holding is not too high a
sale may be expected.
Muskogee and Bartlesvlle Of the
Southwestern League have joined
forces and will make the strongest
team in their circuit next year IL
Muskogee doesn't change leagues.
