Fundraiser Update: The Weatherford Police Department’s ongoing fundraiser that will allow them to purchase new short-barreled tactical rifles for the department is very close to their goal of $62,000. The funds will pay for the guns, ammo, and two full-day training sessions. Right now, they are around $20,000 short of being able to issue a rifle to each officer in the department.If you would like to donate to the fundraiser, you

can make checks payable to the Weatherford Police Department and either drop them off at the station or have Debbie or an officer come pick it up. Every dollar given is greatly appreciated. The WPD and Debbie Shepherd would like to give a big

thank you to everyone who has donated so far. It wouldn’t be possible without all of you.

On March 29, 2018 a coin auction was held in Dallas, Texas. One of the coins sold was an 1854-O (New Orleans) $20 gold coin which sold for $204,000. It is certified by Numismatic Guaranty Cor porat ion (NGC) as Extremely Fine 45 and was the top producing coin sold.Another stand-out coin was

an 1858 Seated Liberty half dime certified by NGC as a MS (Mint State) 68 Star which made a big impression on bidders. The “Star” designation means the coin has a tremendous eye appeal to collectors. This coin looks as good today as it did when made 160

years ago at the Philadelphia mint. It is one of the smallest coins to be minted in the United States. It has a diameter of 15.5 millimeters. For comparison, a current dime is 18 millimeters in diameter. The auction listing states, “This 1858 half-dime is one of

the greatest Stars Obverse, no Arrows type coin known to collectors with full luster and a bold strike. It also displays a die clash that is visible on both sides of the half dime”. In other words, the die clash makes it an error coin increasing its value. (A die clash means the hammer die and anvil die came into contact without a planchet between them). It sold for $8,700 and is destined to be added to a collector’s

type set. Total auction results realized $6.2 million. If anyone needs help with a coin or currency collection,

please call 405-222-8718. Thanks for reading.

The Son of a Cotton Farmer(in the early 1900's)

Maxine McCulloughStaff Writer

These are the words of my late Uncle Tippy."The year we lived at Tuttle was more or less uneventful

with the exception of two events. One was when I went to school the first day starting my last half of the fifth grade. To my surprise my teacher was Mrs. Tracy who started me in fifth grade."The other event happened in the middle of the summer

after our crops were laid. Our house set back from the section line about a quarter of a mile, between the house and the road our pastures lay. In the center of the pasture was a spring-fed pond that our stock used for drinking. The big two story house we lived in has now been moved to Tuttle and is occupied my daughter's uncle and aunt by marriage, almost 60 years."As Papa was sitting on the porch one afternoon looking

toward the road at the west end of our pasture, he saw the brother of our landlady and two other horseback riders, driving a herd of cattle down the road. Now, the brother of our landlady was an arrogant, overbearing person and had trouble with every renter she had on this farm. Papa had been informed of this fact by other men. As I mentioned earlier, Papa had a philosophy you should never allow anyone to run over you."When he saw what was taking place, he rushed into the

house, strapped on his six shooter and ran across the pasture in between the cattle and the pond. The rest of us jumped in the car and drove around there. When we caught up with Papa, he was yelling at the man to get the cattle out of his

pasture and daring him to get off of his horse so he could shoot him. At times Papa had no control of his temper. The man told Papa he only wanted to water his cattle and Papa answered if he had asked he would have helped him. It wasn't the watering that Papa resented it was because he came on without permission as though he could do anything he liked. As Papa stood there with a six shooter, calling him some terrible names, the man realized he meant what he said so the cattle were driven back without a drink."That year was a very poor year due to dry weather. Our

cotton production was very low and the grain crop failed to make. At the end of that year, Papa released the farm and rented one a few miles northwest of Geary, Oklahoma, where we moved to in January 1929. One experience I had in Geary school reflects the

difference in the attitude of school discipline during the 30's in comparison to today. The only spanking that I ever received during my twelve years of school was given to me for chewing gum during the noon hour while playing basketball in the gym. I was whipped with a small rubber hose. "Due to a conflict between Papa and the landlord, we lived

on this farm only one year. "January 1931 we moved to a farm located north of the

South Canadian river five miles north of Bridgeport, just across the road and east of the farm we had when we first moved to Bridgeport from Binger in 1924. The next two years, Mama and we four kids would live in Geary so we could attend school. to be continued...

extraordinary items since 2009. In their news release, KBW said it selected banking

companies for the Bank Honor Roll to acknowledge high performers that exhibited consistent growth in the post-financial crisis period, which was one of the most difficult periods in U.S. banking history. The Honor Roll banks significantly outperformed the

banking industry during the five-year period between 2012 and 2017. “These banks consistently set themselves apart from their peers despite a challenging yield curve environment and stagnant loan growth. These companies have proven a consistency which is difficult to come by, and we believe the KBW Bank Honor Roll members are well-positioned to continue to succeed,” KBW said when announcing the 2017 honor roll members.

For the sixth time in seven seasons, the SWOSU Baseball team has earned a spot in the Great American Conference Championship Tournament, which will be played in Enid on May 5-8. The Bulldogs ended the regular season with a record of 17-14 in conference games, a mark that was percentage points ahead of Harding for the final spot in the field.The reward for the Bulldogs is a matchup with 2018

GAC Champion Arkansas-Monticello in the opening round of the tournament. That contest will lead off the tournament and take place at noon on Saturday, May 5th, at David Allen Memorial Ballpark. UAM swept the season series against the Dawgs, which included two one-run games and saw the entire series decided by a combined five runs. SWOSU is 0-2 all-time against the Boll Weevils at the GAC Tournament, with UAM claiming victories in the event in 2013 and 2014. The last postseason meeting between the programs came at the 2016 NCAA Division II Central Regional, with UAM eliminating the Bulldogs from their first-ever NCAA postseason appearance with a 2-1 extra-inning victory.The GAC Tournament returns to Enid and the

six-team, double-elimination format, for the first time since 2015 – the only year that SWOSU has failed to qualify for the event. While the Bulldogs have routinely qualified for the event, they are still

seeking their first GAC Tournament victory and first conference tournament victory since a 7-1 win

over Texas A&M-Kingsville in the 2011 Lone Star Conference Tournament.

CITY OF ELK CITY SEEKS TO EXTEND SALES TAX- Work continues on the Community Action Plan in Elk City. City Manager Lee Litterell said architects are completing the final draft for the master plan which will then be taken to City Commissioners and the public for review. Litterell said the City will seek an extension of a current sales tax to fund the plan. “It would not be a tax increase; it will just be an extension

of the current sales tax that we already have. It will be one of those things that will help really make Elk City become a true destination point for Western Oklahoma.”Litterell said while the sales tax doesn’t expire until 2023,

the City will likely seek an election for the extension of the tax this year to allow for planning to begin.
