ATTACKS OF BENSON
PAPERS NOT WARRANTED
Charges OF Bad Faith on Part Of
Willmar n. S. Foot Ball Team
Not Proven by Facts in Case.

Last week the Benson papers pub
lished charges Of bad faith against
the management Of the Willmar high

they had secured the services Of one
inside player who was not entitled to

serious a charge to be overlooked,
the editor Of the Willmar Tribune be-
lieved, so we applied for all the in
formation in the case from Supt.

certain over-zealous partisans OF the
Giants to go up. TO the new grounds
and make themselves obnoxious in

they were doing the National league
big favor by attempting TO discred-
II the younger organization.
II was also pretty strongly limited

favorite methods OF getting even with

These streets were not extended
through the new ball park, but in
divers and 'levious ways the new club

no welcome from the local National
league organization or from any OF
its supporters.
Nine short years roll by. A great
fire sweeps the Polo grounds. The
once lofty Giants are homeless just at
time when they are scheduled to
play at home.
A good time for revenge on the
part OF the Highlanders?
Not so. The Giants are invited to
make the American league park their

made possible by the non-confiicting
schedules-and the invitation is ac-
cepted.
