IN THE WORLD OF SPORT
.MANDAN IS now
SLOPE CHAMPION

Mandan, M. D., July 1S.-By win
ming ball game from Bismarck
Sunday. the Mandan team secures the
championship of the slope, wins the
pennant Of the Sixty Three Mile
league and is a contender for the
state championship. The game was
one of the best that has ever been
witnessed in western North Dako-
to, resulting In a score of to 1.
Stratton ond BETTER composed the
capital city battery and Nelson twirl-
ed for Mandan while Fuller caught.
bismarck had strengthened its
team by the addition Of two players
from the disbanded Red Wing team
of the Minny league and an out
fielder by the name Of Helm who has
the reputation of being one of the
best batters In the state. Mandan
played its regular strong lineup to-
gether with Wanless, a pitcher, late
of the University OF Minnesota.
Out of ten games in the Sixty
Three Mile league Mandan only lost
one and ends the season with a per-
centage of 900. The team will be
kept intact for at least another month
and will play independent ball and is
willing to play any team in the
state.
Beach's giants were here for two
games Friday and Saturday. They
won the first game 9 to 8. Bah
cock, who pitched for the locals was
out of form and was batted hard
while Erdman for the Golden valley
team was invincible. In the last
game Wanless pitched for the Man
dan greys and held down the visitors
to five hits while the local sluggers
connected for ten hits, many for ex-
ira bases, and secured eighteen runs.
Beach made six scores. The game
was called in the eighth inning on
account of darkness. Beach used two
pitchers, Armatrout and Tower.

Wolgast had nothing to say about

consider the Briton seriously as con-
tender for his crown.
Like Mcfarland, the champion did
not name the club that would get the
go in Milwaukee. Mcfarland is said
to be at outs with Tom Andrews

KOSSICK BACK
FROM The EAST
CHAMPION LIGHTWEIGHT FIGHT
Err or NoRTH DAKOTA RE.
TURNS FROM TRIP EAST
/ TALKS ABOUT SOME OF THE
FIGHTERS.


Leo Kossick, the local fighter and
champion of North Dakota and vest
ern Minnesota in the lightweight class
has returned from a trip east Kos
sick has been gone for about month
and is well pleased with his visit with
Eome Of the lightweights in and around
the windy city.
In talking to the sporting editor of
The Forum, Kossick said: II saw
Packey Mcfarland work out and I
think that he can beat AID Wolgast il
he should weigh in at 1876 pounds.
He would have to come down good
deal to get to the 1876 mark, but to
drop to 1873 pounds at the ring side as
Wolgast demands. would be too much
for Mcfarland.
Mcfarland is a big fellow in his
body. He has little legs but a huge
chest and mighty arms On looking
at him one does not hardly believe that
he could ever train down to 135 pounds,
although such loss in weight does
not weaken him great deal 1t is
going on those other two pounds that
cuts him down to where he would
be so weak that the Michigan fighter
Although / did not work out with

that section Of the country. would not
be afraid of any of the fellows that
saw work out at O'Connelps and that
is the mecca for all the title aspirants
in the squared ring.
Down at Indianapolis they think
that their man Seller is going to be
conner in the lightweight field. The
sporting people of tho Indiana capital
think that he will soon be up where
he will be a strong contender for the
title of Ad Wolgast. Indianapolis is
q good sporting town and while was
there the sport lovers of the city
showed every evidence of being alive
to the situation and were always in
for good time"
Kossick did not limit himself to the
square ring performers while away,
but took in a number of bali games.
He saw indianapolis and Kansas City
play. Later he saw Russell Ford. the
former North Dakota mound artist
who Is iow with the New York YAM
ktes beat the white sox in Chicago
Kossick thinks that next faI he
will go to Chicago and start out with
some Of the boys at O'ConnelPs. H.

tim OF tie country and there Is row
