'FORD'S PECULIAR
PITCHING THUMB
FORMER NORTH DAKOTA MOUND
MAN AND IDOL OF FARGO FANS
HAS A PECULIAR THUMB TO
WHICH IS ATTRIBUTED HIS
GREAT PITCHING SUCCESS.

The success of the pitching OF Russell
Ford, the former North Dakota battery
man and idol Of Fargo fans in days
gone by. is peculiarly shaped thumb.
The digit bends back and the second
joint seems to be double jointed. He
throws all Of his spitters off the freaky-
docking thumb. BY simply twisting it
different ways he makes the ball break
accordingly.
He has three separate and distinct
spitters. BY a slight change of his
thumb he can make the ball break in,
out or down. 1t all depends upon the
position of the batsman as to which
he may dish up. Catcher Sweeney is
frceod to ride" with the ball, and has
to guess, like the batter, which way the
pellet is going to shoot
Ford vets the ball very little, and,
despite the fact that many players
have claimed their errors were due
to grabbing a damp spot, 1t is not SO
with Ford's ball. He doesn't wet a
spot any larger than a dime
But 1t is different with other spit
ball twirlers. For instances, Jack
Chesbro, father of the wet fling, would
dampen his ball so much that 1t re-
sembled a sponge filed with water.
Big Ed Walsh is another pitcher who
gives the ball good, thorough soaking,
and the white sox inflelders have to
be careful how they heave 1t to the
base after making a stop.

A. c. SCHEDULE
not YET READY
FOOTBALL SCHEDULE FOR THE
A. G. 10 ALMOST COMPLETED
WILL PLAY THE UNIVERSITY IN
FARGO THIS YEAR---ME ET FAR
GO COLLEGE.

The A. G. football schedule for this
year is not completed although 1t is
nearing perfection In the hands of
Manager Wheeler. It Ii probable that
there will be six games In the schedule
this year.
The state science school at Wahpe-
ton will probably open the season with
q game here This will merely be a
practice contest and will give Coach
Itueber chance to get a line on his
men.
The dates for the big game with the
university have not been definitely
settled as yet. It's Fargols turn this
year to have the annual battle and the
great gridiron contest between the two
largest state schools will be settled at
Athletic park. The two dates that are
being considered are Nov. and IL.
1t is safe to say that this game win be
tho last one played during the season.
However, Nov. 4, has the preference
of the two dates and will probably be
given the choice.
The annual battle with Fargo college
and the A, G. will come a short time
before the university game. 1t has
been announced that this game might
be played on Nov. 4 but this hardly
seems probable at this writing.
The farmer eleven will take trip
into Minnesota and South Dakota this
year. The name of the Minnesota
team has not been announced, but ne
gotlations are under way with Ham
line. The South Dakota game will
probably be played with Huron at
Huron, s. ID.
The South Dakota Agricultural col
IegA warriors will again be seen in
Fargo this year. The Brookings boys
win play here against the aggies Oct.
90. This date has been agreed upon
by the managers of both teams. The
southern aggies are fast and aggressive

tacllnr game, to O.
Coach Rueber is expecting some
new material in this year that will
strengthen the team in the backfield
and i'm the line. What he has lacked
has been heavy men who were fast.
Captain Schroeder will be in school to
lead the line men and get down the
field on punts, The outlook for a win
ming aggie team Is especially bright.

GAME WILL BE
PLAYED TOMORROW
SECOND CONTEST BETWEEN
MooRHEAD AND FARGO WILL
BE PLAYED TOMORROW AFTER
NOON AT ATHLETIC PARK FOR
THE CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Tomorrow afternoon at Athletic park
in Fargo the second game for the
championship in baseball between
Moorhead and Fargo win be played at
3 o'clock.
The championship series has so far
been full OF interest. The frst game
last Sunday between the two teams
resulted In a to / victory for the
Fargo boys. The game was clean to
the core and was marked by errorless
ball and sharp, stiff fielding.
Fiddler, the mound man Of the Fargo
team, was on the firing line last Sum
day and will be seen there again to-
morrow. He is big tall boy and has
a terrible whip. His thirteen strike
out game week ago brought him es-
pecially into the limelight and his
work will be watched with a great deal
OF interest.
A number OF times this season Fid-
der has pitched great ball until the
last few innings. The gophers are hop
ing that he viii have such streak to-
morrow and so UP as the game pro-
crosses. Should such o misfortune be-
fall the locals the visitors have team
that will hold the game down and take
away the victory to the other side of
the river.
It is thought by many of the dope
sters that Moorhead will win the game
tomorrow. They are desperate for a
victory and will take big chances for
mailing the game. If Holt throws to
second the way he did last week there
win be number of the Moorhead boys
steal the second corner with a good
deal OF regularity.
It is up to Fargo to play steady,
conservative ball and everything would
indicate that the game will be a hum
mer from start to finish.
