Came Through Last Fargo
Game With few Injuries
Park River Saturday.

The Grand Forks gridiron warriors
came through the game with Fargo
last Friday in better shape than had
been expected, and most OF the menu
bers of the team should be in condt-
ton to play n first class game against
Park River this week.
One of the most extraordinary in.
cidents of the Fargo struggle was the
apparently miraculous cure worked
on the shoulder Of Roy Carter.
game with his left arm practically
useless from the pounding he had re-
ceived the previous week. and in the
last period received another heavy
blow on the injured member.
This APPARENTLY forced the wrenched
muscles back into place. however, for
Sunday Carter reported to Coach o.
Keefe that the arm was as we'll as
ever 1t is expected that he will be
in good shape by next Saturday.
Captain Ferguson, who played a
stellar game Friday, came out with
two badly %blackened eyes, but except
for the damage to his optics. is in first
class condition. jacob is also ex-
pected to get back into shape by the
time of the final game.
In spite of the tales which have
sifted down from the north regarding
the great strength Of the Park River
aggregation, Coach O'Keefe believes
that il the local team puts up the sort
of game played two weeks g against
Fargo the result will give Grand
Forks a strangle hold on the state
championship.

South Dakota-Haskell Indian game,
tentatively scheduled for today, was
called off by the local board OF control
for financial reasons. Vermillion is q

crowd sufficient to pay the guarantee

Coach Henderson put them through
all Of the forward pass formations
Saturday. most of which did not re-
suit satisfactorily, for two reasons;
first, the absence Of a first-rate passer,
and. second, the chill forty-miie gale
blowing across the field. The passing
of Willy from center is constantly i'm
proving. and was very accurate to the
backfield on direct work.

FRAT EXPLAINS
its REQUESTS
Baseball Players Association
Issues Statement-Want
to Know Trade Terms

e York, Nov. 10.-The Baseball
Players Fraternity today made pub
Tic a statement explanatory OF the
eVehtee requests 1t has made to
Inc national baseball commission and
the national board of. arbitration for
n IN players contracts. and the
arguments 1t advances for their &C.
ceptance.
or the first request it says that
when q player Is given ten DAYS mo-
tice of his unconditional release such
pay should be permitted immedi-
atelv to negotiate a new contract
W~heresoever he desires. but that at
present he Is not allowed to sign with
any q outside the league in which
he Is playing.
We believe" the statement says.
that during that time he should be
absolutely free to contract for the
future" ~
Of the second request-that na.
tionai association players shall re-
De released Internationally - the
statement argues that under this con-
tract, "a player is bound for life
or so long as the magnate wants him,
while the magnate is not bound 70.
the fraction Of a second"
It cites that Dusty Rhoades and
Bake" Gettman were "thrown out
- ANos AAAtst W1IIlOuL a mo-
ments warning, and asks that a con-
tract be made a contract-bindinE
alike upon player and club owner"
Or releases. the statement contends
that players have a right to know
under what terms they are sent from
one club to another. It says that
often q player is sent to another team
with no knowledge Of terms of his
new contract.
one request Of the fraternity il
that clubs furnish free to players the
uniforms. exclusive of shoes, and that
travelling expenses Of players be
paid by the clubs to. which they be.
long from their homes to the train
Ing camps. It argues that inas-
six weeks before the season starts
and Is not under salary but mean
time plays in exhibition games, "in
many cases at a profit to his employ
err" he should at least have ali his
expenses paid.
lease Of a veteran player. The fra
ternity argues that when a player is
reaching the end Of his baseball ca
reer and is no longer wanted by his
club. the player should be unham-
pered IN his %endeavors to obtain a
position and not sold under such
agreement "as Murphy sold Morde-
S@t DAOWA " AOulSVll10 d year ago.
On the request that a. player be
notified in writing Of the imposition
Of a fine or Of his suspension. the
statement says the power to finds or
suspend. els often used to crafty q
managers personal Spite" and adds
that when q players money. is TAX
en- there should be. reason suficient-
ly valid to place it in black and
white"
The request concerning the. waiver
rule. according to the statement, is in
protest against sending a player to
q minor league. the. contention being
that a player should be permitted ito
can find employment"
Denial is made of the right of a
club to send a man to a lower clas-
%sification at great cost to the players
reputation simply to strengthen some
team which it owns or because it can
get a certain player for him. when
there are other teams in the higher
classification which would be glad to
get the player.
