Around 1927, Marion Landers came to Albert, called Oney by most locals, as he heard that a barber was needed in this little town with the tough reputation.

got real excited when a team from another town came to play. He pondered the idea that if he got involved with the team, it would do good for

In actuality, he had never managed a team, but had watched a lot of them back in Missouri where he grew up. Marion was a nice looking 28 year old man whose wife had died some years before, and his little girl was being raised by his dead wife's folks.
