Ball Team for CITY.

Lovers Of the national game are now
assured that Willmar will have a base
ball team the coming season. Steps
were taken a short time ago for the
organization of a club here and some
excellent material has been secured.
The organization was effected quite
recently and the following will be the
lineup of the Willmar Baseball Team:
Melvin Grangaard, catcher; Ludwig
Glarum, pitcher; Ole johnson, 1st
base; Peter Person, End base; Bert
Robbins, 3rd base; George Hanscom,
shortstop; Carl Jacobson, left field;
Jalmer Person, right field; Arvid Carl
son, center field. Peter Person has
been chosen as captain, and it is most
probable that Peter Bonde will be
secured as manager for the team. At
this writing we had not learned as to
whether he had accepted the offer.
1t is the intention to get the old ball
park grounds in good shape at an
early date. The first practice game
was played this week and the members
are all enthusiastic over the prospects
for good series of games during the
season. Challenges have already
been received from Paynesville and
other points, and as soon as manager
is secured the opportunity will be
given outside teams to try conclusions
with our home boys.

BOARD CONSIDERS BIDS
Andrew ejorsell Awarded Contract Yes =
- tsrdsy for Erection Of New -
H. Schoolhousa.

The board of education met yester-
day afternoon to consider bids for the
erection of the new schoolhouse.
Judging from the general run of bids
in other places, the board was pre-
pared for somewhat higher prices than
were figured on at the time of the spe-
cial school meeting, the rapid advance
in materials being the cause. The re-
suit showed that this anticipation was
correct, the some of the bids were
really lower than had been expected
for the last two weeks. The bids for
the general contract ran from little
over $4,000 to about $4,000. The
bids for plumbing ranged from s1,325
to 81, 100, and on heating and ventila-
tion from "a, 800 to s5, 800. After care
ful consideration the board decided
that there must be cut made some
where, and it was voted to leave the
gymnasium unfinished, leave out Ve-
netian blinds, double windows and
weather strips, and also ask for fig
ures on usinglSiskiwit sandstone trim
ming instead of Port Wing or Kettle
River stone. The three lowest con-
tractors-Wold & Johnson, Wahl and
Bjorsell-were asked to submit sup
Elementary bids covering these chang
es. When these bids were brought in
and opened it was found that Andrew
Bjorsell of Willmar was the lowest
bidder at 1924, ,067, and the contract
was awarded to him at that figure.
The lowest bidder on plumbing was
the j. 81: Virgins CO. at $1,3l5. It
was decided to make little change in
the specification, for which Mr.. Wig
gins allowed 1852, making his bid
81, 173, and the contract was awarded
to him at that price. The bids on
heating were all rejected, and it is
probable that the system will be
changed so as to cut down the price
about 81, 200.
While the cost of the building will
be somewhat over the allowance made,
the board felt that it could not afford
to take any chances on the future.
The Pacific coast mills have shut down
on all eastern orders as they will not
be able to fill the demands from San
Francisco and .neighboring points.
This will leave this section at the mer-
cy' of the white pine trust, and ma
terial advance in prices of lumber may
he expected: AS the building is ab-
solutely needed at the earliest pos
sible moment and there was no chance
for better bid in the near future,
this seemed the only reasonable course
to take.
