Great Game Staged Thurs
day Evening Before
Big Crowd.

Those who went to the ball park
last evening to see "Muggsy" Nc
Graw's $4,000 beauty perform, Mr..
Schauer, were not a bit disappointed
in the showing that he. made, and
were not a bit disappointed in the ar
ticle; OF ball that was played. in spite
of the fact that Superior got three
runs, while the Flickertails were able
to get only one off the stingy big
leaguer-to-be. 1t was some baseball
game all right, The chap who did
not feel as though he had gotten his
moneys worth last night does not
know the value Of money. As far as
that Is concerned, anybody who has
seen the baseball of the last ten days
is ready to go on the witness stand
and swear that the Flickertails are
playing about as classy an article OF
ball as man wants to see.
Smoke, coupled with an elusive
break on the ball, was the undoing OF
the Flickertails last night. The phan-
tem-like spheroid shot by the Forkers
so fast that there was little time to
consult with it. In fact ,Schauer
made the bali do all. the talking"
-Four hits was the grand total Of swats
that the Forkers were able to grab
the speed demon of the Superiorites
shot at them. Only one Of these hits
was for more than one bag. A few
stout bangs at the right time would
have helped the Flickers wonderfully.
But the embargo was on and there
was no running Of the blockade at any
stage of the game except in the sec
ond inning when a pass and a double
netted the Forkers the only run they
got.

scarce all evening, the hurlers pitch
ing alright ball most of the way.
Wilson pitched clever ball for the
whole show cut in the eighth it SEEM
ed as though the engines were shut off
n he began to coast. Two runs
oozed across the pan and in favor OF
the Red Sox in the last two innings.
This man schauer, to take UP the
subject again, is some pill hrower
Those balls as they bisected the plate
did look like pills to the Forkers. At
no stage Of the evenings battle did
they look like or assume the proper
tons of a bean bag.
"Rube" Schauer was anxious to
make good last night. Up in the
Grand stand was q little group of peo-

lp and. shoot the ball at his catcher.
Every time, Perry yelled strike" a
smile spread across the face Of each"
Rube's parents were up in the
stands watching, the lad perform.
When he left home he was unknown

than the. governor of the state. They
We're there to see how the family
were as happy as children when the
game was over and "Rube" had added
another win to his long string of VIC
tories.
Scoring is Scarce.
Ten hits were gotten off Wilson'S
delivery and at three different times
they came in pairs. Then there were
three wobbles, one Of which helped
the S~uperiorites to a run. Morse,
Chase and Wilson were the offenders.
The star play of the evening was ex-
ecuted by RUDE Foster in the last
frame. With Benrud on first and ach-
ing to get to the midway Schauer hit
a liner at Rube which RUDE handled
perfectly and to the infinite disgust
of the mortified Benrud, shot.-to first
for the second put out.
The lone Grand Forks tally came in
the second inning. Chase flew out to

short stop of hits. Bond went out on
a foul to Curtis at first. Glockner.

base on balls and scored when Jerry
