                                 FORM U-3A-2

               STATEMENT BY HOLDING COMPANY CLAIMING EXEMPTION
                 UNDER RULE U-3A-2 FROM THE PROVISIONS OF THE
                  PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANY ACT OF 1935

                    To be Filed Annually Prior to March 1

                      OKLAHOMA GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY

     hereby files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to
     Rule 2, its statement claiming exemption as a holding company from the
     provisions of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, and  
     submits the following information:

        1.  Name, State of organization, location and nature of business
     of claimant and every subsidiary thereof, other than any exempt
     wholesale generator (EWG) or foreign utility company in which claimant
     directly or indirectly holds an interest.

            Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company (the "Company") was

     incorporated February 27, 1902, under the laws of the Territory of

     Oklahoma and is now existing under and by virtue of the laws of the

     State of Oklahoma.

            The Company is predominantly an operating electric public

     utility.  Its operations are conducted principally in the State of

     Oklahoma and do not extend beyond the State and the contiguous State

     of Arkansas.  Its business is more fully described in its most recent

     Form 10-K Annual Report (File No. 1-1097) on file with the Commission.

            The Arklahoma Corporation may be considered to be a subsidiary

     because the Company owns one hundred seventy shares of the common

     stock of The Arklahoma Corporation, out of a total five hundred shares

     of such stock outstanding, in accordance with the plan set forth in

     the joint Application-Declaration of Form U-1 filed with the





                                     -1-

     Commission (File No. 70-1673) to which reference is hereby made.  The

     Arklahoma Corporation is organized under the laws of the State of

     Arkansas.  It is an electric public utility organized for the purpose

     of owning and leasing certain electric transmission facilities in the

     States of Arkansas and Oklahoma.

            The Company had one wholly-owned subsidiary, Enogex Inc.

     Enogex Inc. had five wholly-owned subsidiaries:  Enogex Products

     Corporation, Enogex Services Corporation, Enogex Exploration

     Corporation, ENGL Corporation and Clinton Gas Transmission Inc.

     Enogex Inc. and each of its subsidiaries were incorporated under the

     laws of the State of Oklahoma.  Enogex Inc. owns and operates a

     natural gas pipeline system that delivers natural gas to the Company's

     electric generating units.  By order of the Commission dated August

     28, 1986 (Release No. 35-24174), the Commission ordered that Enogex

     Inc. was not a gas utility company within the meaning of Section

     2(a)(4) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended

     (the "Act").  The subsidiaries of Enogex Inc.:  own and operate gas

     processing plants in Oklahoma; are engaged in the processing of

     natural gas and the marketing of natural gas liquids; are engaged in

     the buying, selling and brokering of natural gas; and are engaged in

     the exploration for and production of natural gas.  The subsidiaries

     of Enogex Inc. are not "public  utility companies" within the meaning

     of the Act.

        2.  A brief description of the properties of claimant and each of
     its subsidiary public utility companies used for the generation,
     transmission, and distribution of electric energy for sale, or for the
     production, transmission, and distribution of natural or manufactured
     gas, indicating the location of principal generating plants,
     transmission lines, producing fields, gas manufacturing plants, and
     electric and gas distribution facilities, including all such
     properties which are outside the State in which claimant and its
     subsidiaries are organized and all transmission or pipelines which
     deliver or receive electric energy or gas at the borders of such
     State.
