AFTERNOON GAME
WAS A lUR|D
DISPLAY
i,
Maroons Won Both Games
From Locals on Fourth of
July-Advice for Jumps.

4 One Of the most lurid displays of
i fireworks ever seen in Grand Forks
was that at Athletic Park Wednesday
afternoon between the hours of $3.50
and $3.50 o'clock. There were no new
inventions in the spectacular, just the
same old story-balloon went up
someone punctured the bag-down
came everybody sprawling-and there
you are!
1t all happened about thuswise-
You see, Grand Forks people are ex-
ceedingly fond Of amusement, SO some
thing like eight or nine hundred hied
themselves to the ball garden Broad
wayard independence Day afternoon
to watch Spike" Anderson's Maroon
ball tossers exnlDll with the Grand
Forks Browns, and to say that those
present were amused Is putting it mild.
In fact they were simply delighted. A
game, that in the initial Innings had
every ear-mark Of league contest.
developed at length into a burlesque
of the very topmost rating, with the
Browns as the star performers. The
locals conducted themselves a la one
Jack Horner who sat in a corner, put
In his thumb pulled out a plumb and
said, what good boy am I.
To make long story short the Ma
rooms simply toyed with the home
bunch. handing put 9 to defeat,
hitting, running, scoring or stealing at
will. Bushelman was found for to-
tai of is hits, including two two-bag-,
gers and a triple, made a wild pitch
and gave base on balls, both of which
counted in the totals. The locals on
the other hand took half a dozen good
ones for theirs and erred enough times
to lose the game even If Bushelman had
pitched average ball. Lots that should
have been outs frequently fell in safe
territory. or passed by the in-fiefders.
1t was In the closing innings of the
game that things began to go wrong.
In the seventh, eighth and ninth chap
tiers the Maroons lit onto Bushelman
for total of nine safe hits and seven
scores.
In the early portion of the contest
the locals found Bond not hard to hit
but the latter steadied down and al
lowed nothing at critical times.
