SAYS RED sox NOT CHAMPS.

THE Fargo Red Sox are not the
baseball champions Of the city,
neither have they any right to the
claim" said Manager Steinwand of
the Fargo Meredith baseball team
this morning in talking with the
sporting editor of The Forum.
THE game played Sunday be-
tween our team and the Red Sox
was not for the championship of
the city, nor was there any under
standing that 1t should be. We
said we would play them as a final
game, but no championship Of the
Red river valley or even the city
was in the consideration.
mo one ever heard OF team
playing about half Of the season
and then with one game take the
championship Of the city, say moth
ing Of the Red river valley. A
series OF games Is always consid-
cred in championships.
THE Red Sox have played q few
games this year and almost every
team in the valley that they have
met has defeated them. If they
think they have the Red river
valley championship, or even the
city championship, they had better
get out and play some baseball
and win few games with some
OF the winning teams"

Something Due to Drop.
Apparently. something is due to
drop on the university practice field
this week. Several firm pieces of
cordwood, with good. strong muscle
at the welding end would probably
have the effect Of tanning some little
spark of lighting spirit into flame.
The university's weakness at this
stage Of the game is certainly not due
to a lack OF material. Coach Dunlap
has a wealth of that material to work
with, and there is no reason when
the university should not have one OF
the strongest teams In its history.
The continual changing Of men in
Saturdays contest may have had some
effect on the playing of the university
team. but, If such was the case, 1t
shows the weakness OF the team more
plainly than ever. With two weeks Of
hard practice, one of which was de-
voted to scrimmage, the men should
have their team work down much bet
ter than it was Saturday and be able
to stand substitution after substitution
without hindering their play.
1t is certain, however, that the uni
versity team viii have to show 200 per
cent Improvement in next Saturdays
game with the alumni or give up all
hope of winning game.
While the high schoI team made
numerous football errors Saturday
the game showed that Coach O'Keefe
had excellent material for a strong
team In Hassell and O'Keefe he has
two strong men that viii be hard to
beat In high school elevens, while Don
Payne, at quarterback, demonstrated
that he will be one Of the main stays
of the team. Gilby. Fishman, Feeth-
am and several other high school men
showed up well. and will undoubtedly
give still better account OF them
selves in other contests.

New York City, Oct. s.. CHARLEY
FAUST, the official giant mascot ID the
king pin In the McGraw machine If
the superstitious players are to be
credited. McGraw ID himself author
ity for the statement and says the con-
tinued good luck OF the bali team IL
due to the tall Kansas farmer whom q
fortune teller CHANGED To send him.
The story Il most unique one In
basebalidonn 1t was during the first
session In St. Louis between the giants
and the western team that Faust one
day walked into the visitors clubhouse
and asked for Manager McGraw. When
the head oT the New Workers was
pointed out to him he said: II am
here. II see YOU arel said McGraw.

was coming" said Faust. II certainly
did not, replied McGraw. "That's
funny. a fortune teller out In Kansas
told me you wanted me to help
Mathewson pitch"
Faust stuck with the giants while
they were In St Louis but was passed
up. He promised McGraw he would
SO back to Kansas but ne didn't. He
waited until the New Workers hit the
mound city again. They gave him the
slip again but he was determined to
stay near McGraw. He believed the
fortune teller and beat his way to New
York.
The presence OF Faust seemed to-
bring good luck to the giants ana they
took commanding lead on their last
home stand and Faust was signed By
McGraw a. assistant manager.

ing during the season, or they failed
to follow out Instructions.
Saturdays farce. however. failed to
show the spectators that the univer-
sity men had ever tried to romp down
the field with football The line men
charged like jumping jacks, while the
back field men acted as they were
brittle and could not bend over, for
fear Of breaking In two. When one
of the backs was called on for a line
smash, the line-men invariably failed
to get their opponent out of the way.
Only once or twice during the game

Taking into consideration size,

absolutely no excuse for the miserable
showing the university men made
against the high school players, ad-
mittedly one Of the highest the local
high school has ever had The uni
versity team should have piled up a
score of at least thirty, and if they had

Instead Of this they were content TO
dilly daily along, showing no fighting
spirit whatever, and letting the less
experienced, lighter and younger high
school men show them how to dig into
a football contest. The high school
players showed more lighting spirit
