Best Luck, But

Special TO The world.
OKLAHOMA CITY, March CO.
That Oklahoma City and Tulsa
would tangle in battles this season
that may mean much 10 these
ancient rivals was the prediction OF
Jim Crawford, president Of the Tui-
sh Western League club. who was
in oklahoma City Monday.
Tulsa had the pleasure OF defi-
nltely smotherlng Oklahoma City's
pennant hopes last season In spite
Of the fact that the oilers them
selves were hopelessly last, the
the Tulsa mogul said.
This year holds far greater
promise Tulsa isn't going to be hope
less last or hopeless anywhere" ho
continued. "All that VIC need TO
make us a pennant contender Is a
corking good outfielder and another
first-Cass iufielder and think
we've about got them both lined
up
Crawford not only comedies that
Oklahoma city stacks up pen
nant contender at the present time
but he glories in it.
Looks like Jack might have a
good chance to get over this year,
he said Hes got the best team
Oklahoma city ever called her own
and that ought TO make business
good in Tulsa when our Oilers
scalp his Indians"
