TO EDIT
R PAGE OF
RS. REPUBLICAN
(By Editor Republican,


H. T. Duce who has worked in
Parco for some time and is known
by practically every Parco resident
and worker has accepted the position
as the Editor for the Parco Page in
the Rawlins Republican. Mr.. Duce
has taken the place made vacant by
Julian Snow who resigned last week
in order to finish his course at the
University Of Wyoming.
Mr.. Duce has been transferred
from the Operating Department of
the Producers and Refners to the
Engineering Department to enable
him to devote more time to his work
in connection with the editing of this
page.
Some few weeks ago Mr.. Duce was
elected as President of the Wyoming
First Voters Republican Club at
Parco and his popularity is unques-
toned, a great asset in helping TO
make a real live newspaper. The
Republican Is fortunate in securing
the services of Mr.. Duce for with his
knowledge Of the refinery, it's work
ings, and his wide acquaintance with
the Parco residents he should make
the Parco page n of the most in
teresting in this paper, not only from
the technical knowledge to be gain
ed by reading some of the articles
IN the industrial side of the refinery
but from the social viewpoint as well.
One of the desires of this newspaper
is to promote a closer relationship
between the Rawlins citizens and
the Parco residents. We believe that
Mr.. Duce is a man who has the talent
and the ability of editing a age
which will be more than well worth
reading.

was not easily discouraged and ever
though she had lost two Of her star
players, Alberding and Shea, she,
like Rawlins, drafted some more men
to replace, il possible, those who
had left. In vain Rawlins worked
to ware off defeat in Mondays game
but Parco proved to be too much and
SO emerged victorious after one of
the hardest and hottest contests she
has ever entered.
After two weeks layoff the Parco
Oil Cans. with cry little practice
attempted to defeat Rawlins ON Sun
day but numberless errors and in
ability to hit the redoutable Miller
consistently brought defeat to the
tune of fifteen to eight.
With the exception of the fifth
inning Miller held Parco almost
scoreless allowing only six hits
throughout the entire game. Raw
Inns secured ten hits off Murphy In
four innings and one one from the
famous Southpaw, Waite. in five in
nings.
The story Is shortly told when you
come to the realization that fourteen
hits and e runs were made by Raw
Inns In the first -four innings. Over
confidence. loose playing and lack of
practice were undoubted.y the causes
of Parco's d feat.
However The defeat served its pur-
pose and Labor Day was fittingly
celebrated when Parco came up fight
ing. 1t was the initiation OF Bur-
COON OF Kansas into Wyoming base
ball circles. He performed well AMI
shows promise OF being the leadia,
moundsman Of this part Of the coun-
try. True he allowed IA hits but
with the exception of the second and
eighth innings they were fairly well
scattered.
Morrison gave Parco ten hits in
five innings and Miller, who replaced
him In the ffth only allowed five
during the remainder OF the game.
The game was augmented with a
few brilliant catches in the Outf1eld
by Jones OF Parco and Murphy of
Rawlins. Harris and Kingsley were
the stars for Rawlins. Kingsley hit
four times out Of five times up and
fielded perfectly while Harris fea-
tured with brilliant catches at short,
robbing Parco out Of what other
wise might have been safe nits.
Paul, Jones and Welch fielded
without error giving Burgoon won
ooppohts "a ~
three and four times respectively
out OF five chances, and Gibson per-
formed creditably on the receiving
end and did his share Of demoraliz-
ing the Rawlins pitchers with three
runs "a his credit.
During the game on Labor Day
the Parco Music Producers were
present In full force and furnished
the rooters with their excellent mel
odies. II was received With enthus-
iasm and It In hoped that at the next
ball game In Rawlins. or elsewhere,
they will be present again.
Next Saturday the Parco Oil Cans
will invade Craig. Colorado. In search
OF new honors. Several Parsa'<as
have signihed their intentions oil D..
ing to see that heavy hitting agEre-
cation In action again. We hope you
will all be there IL possible.

cities during the present season. 1t was the finish of a five
game series which started in July. Parco won the first two
games with apparent ease. That put Rawlins on her 'toes'

Colored Quintet Fails to Appear

Ab ~ "a
The colored orchestra which was
to have played for the big dance at
Bags last Friday night failed to
keep their appointment, owing to the
fact that they boosted their price
two days before the event. Mr.. Maui
pin refused to be sand-bagged and
let them go.
After making numerous efforts to
secure a good orchestra to take the
place of the licorice drops, the Parco
fiye-piece orchestra was secured,
thru the good sportsmanship of the
superintendent of the refinery, and
II those cOons could have produced
any better music than did those
Parco players, they certainly would
have had to step some.
1t wus the unanimous contention
of the large crowd present that the
music furnished by the Parco artists
was the best ever heard on Snake
river, and the orchestra experienced
as much pleasure in playing for them
as did the dancers enjoy dancing to
the toe-tickling strains. Altho the
mus!"ian were not very enthusiastic
about coming down hare to play for
this dance. they are now more than
anxious to come again. As they stated
they never before had such a good
time playing for a dance. and be-
licve Snake River crowds are the
livest In the county.
Mr.. Maupin will make an effort
to secure this excellent orchestra for
a dance In September.
