Grand Forks fans have every reason
to feel We'll satisfied with the showing
the local club has made in its first Sc
ries, although the team did lose TWO
of the three games.
One of the notable features is the
splendid manner in which the pitch
ers worked, the showing of Myers yes
terdaN being especially good. Myers.

ually allowed the opposition team at
least enough scores TO give his own
teammates some work to do to over
come the margin. pitched great ball.
Up to the ninth inning he had al.
lowed only TWO singles and he hadn't
walked a man. His own team had
given him one III in the eighth in
ming, and Grand Forks apparently had
the edge.
Then Myers walked his first man:
he stole second and a single at just
game from his delivery-tied the
score.
But the point evidently has been
proved SO far as Myers is concerned.
He pitched better ball yesterday than
at n time last season.
Morse and Jarnigan Alright.
Morse and J%arnigan, too, are in
good shape. Jarnigan won his first
game-the opening game of the sea-

Morse and Myers were denied any
thing in the way of runs from their
team.
Better Base Running.
Better base running seems to be the
secret nf mo Sif1l1finr IitN m lutr II,
the two games lost at Winona Grand
Forks had a total of eighteen men
left on bases, while Winona only had
eleven.
\ little faster work in cutting off
stolen bases also appears essential, as
the Don scores have shown the oppo-
sitlon quite successful in that respect.
Have the Edge to Date.
Despite the fact hat Grand Forks

games, the team is very evidently in
the best condition of any around the

Boys Stand Well at Red Wing.
That the Grand Forks club is made
up of a very fine bunch of gentlemen
IS shown by the following clipping
from a Red Wing paper, telling of
their departure from that city:
