LOCAL BASEBALL.
ACTION SOON IS
INDICATION NOW
Attorney Has All Available Records
and Starts Preparation of Papers
For Filing of Case In
Courts.

Preliminary steps are being taken
today toward the filing of the case
by the Chickasha Baseball associa-
tion against the Western association
for the return of the Chickasha
franchise. following the action Of
the league moguls in voting the
Chickasha franchise to Ray Winder

sas City last night, but who at the
last, moment, settled the business

er method to proceed in starting
Chickasha's court fight
A copy of the Western Associa-
TONS bylaws and constitution was
being studied this morning together
with records and documents In The
hands Of the local association. 1t
was not stated in what court the
case would be filed. nor the style
Of the suit, but everything pointed
10 probable action in the next day
OF two.
No word has been received by
local baseball men from the league
officials since e. A. Daniels, presi-
dent Of the w. A. called Mr.. Stein
berger here to inform him that the
league refused to vote Chckasha
back into the association.
Keen disappointment has been ex-
pressed among the fans here at the
action of the league chiefs, as much
progress was being made toward the
raising OF $4,000 asked by Daniels
whose own proposition was to put a
team in here for the 1922 season.
1t is understood that that team will
row go to McAlester.
Local baseballers were given to
understand that the league voted
the franchise to Winder with a ten
day time limit in which to place the
franchise. MeAlester was one OF
the towns Winder had his eyes on
and as that berth is now taken, by
the transfer Of the Drumright club,
Shawnee seems to be about the only
hope for the Little Rock man. Win
der has been in touch with Shawnee
for some months, but reports COM
ing from there fail to show where
he has made any progress. If he is
rearing satisfactory deal with
Shawnee, it has been kept quiet.
