them. Plans are under way to give
Fargo a real club in the North Dakota
league, which viii be operated on the
conference style between the following
cities: Fargo. Valley City, jamestown,

passes will entitle each bearer to
forty games played at home with full

the expenses of getting n of the
fastest teams ever collected together
to represent Fargo, and to pay for
other incidentals expenses.
A ball team is one of the best adj

Fargo BOY CAPTAIN
OF BADGER CREW

Madison, Wis, April ~17.--Just one
month behind last year, the University
of wisconsin varsity crew took its
initial dip in the water last week,
Lake Monona having freed itself of it's
ice coating Monday afternoon. With
Coach Vail coaching from the shore,
the eight covered about five miles in
the course of the afternoon and the
work will be kept up without n
breaks until after the Poughkeepsie
regatta.
Prospects Are Good.
Prospects for a powerful varsity
eight were considerably frightened
yesterday by the appearance Of Mack
miller at his old seat at No. 5 in the
shell. He was the oarsman who was
banished for the season by Coach Vail
last year for failure to live up to the
training regulations laid down by the
coach.
He was dismissed from the crew and
deprived of his football and crew
VS. by the university athletic
board. This fall he made his place at
left guard on the varsity eleven and
was awarded his football letter again
and the dope gives him a place in the
first shell this season. He was not K
pected to try for the crew owing to
the odium that his dismissal caused,
but the old members of the eight
voted to take him back.
Eight Will Be Strong.
If Coach VAN uses the boating as it
now stands, this years varsity eight
will be the most powerful in the his
tory of rowing at wisconsin. Tacker,
the stroke, is the lightest man in the
shell, tipping the beams at 1863. The
seating is as follows: Tacker, stroke:
Samp, No. z; Captain Pollock, No. g.;
Mackmiller, No. s; Dreutzer, No. 4;
Sioblom, No. 3; Gelein, No. 2, and
Macleod, bow. All of the men have
had one years experience with the
exception of Gelein and Dreutzer, who
were ineligible for the crew last year.
The freshmen are uncertainties, but
Coach Vail freely admits that the year
lings will not be as classy a bunch of
youngsters as the 1914 aggregation.

team, and last season with the Kear-
ney club. in the Nebraska State league.
'Blondy'' is a southpaw and is con
sidered one of the best portwheelers
in minor league ball. "Duggan'
Morse, last season with Saskatoon in
the western Canada league, is another
slab artist who is a topnotcher, who
is waiting for instructions. Foss and
his reputation are well known as a re-
ceiver. Foss is considered the catcher
in semi-pro ranks and no further
comment is needed upon his ability.

no Introduction to the baseball fans
of Fargo and Moorhead. Each is con-
sidered a t performer. Danahey,
with Aberdeen last season in the South
Dakota state league. was one of the
fastest outfelders in the league. He
is a consistent hitter and safe bingles
in his territory are few and far be-
tween. Rogers, Carey, Blanks, Durfee
and Walsh are fast players with minor
league experiences. who can be OBJ
tanned on short notice.
The first practice will be held Sun
