factor that would make Cobb worth

NORMAL
CONCORDIA

Fargo, y. D., Jan. 19.-winning in
the last two minutes of play, Moor
head normal annexed the first victory
Of the season. trimming their rivals,
Concordia college 81 to II. At the
close of the first half the normal team
had the slight advantage Of one point,
the score being II and 10.
Both teams guarded well, with the
exception OF the last few moments
when the Concordia guards lost the
normal forwards and the game.
Both Coach Hillyer Of the normal
and Coach Holzer Of the Concordia
team put their best men into the
game right from the start and there
was little choice between them during
the first session. The guarding Of
both teams was great and their at
tack was marked by fast foorwork
and quick shots, for the nets. During
the last period everything was even
up to the last two minutes when the
normal spurted, winning by four
points.
Paxton. Iverson and Carlander
starred for the normal and Lavik and

Superior, Wis. Jan. 1a.-Supcrior
is the only baseball club in the North
eTn league that has SO far failed to
name a manager for 1919, assuming
that Bob UnElaub will lead Mike Cam
tillion's F'argo-M oorehead team. We
have Bill Son1mer's word tina he
hasn't signed a pilot for the Red Legs
although he claims he is casting about
for a new a without making pub
lie the nature of his plans.
An interesting feature to local fans
next season will be the appearance of
three former Superior players who
have managed the Red Legs and who
will lead teams in other cities. Kid
Taylor. who piloted the 1912 Red Sox
to a Minny league championship, will
attempt to- do what the famous Spike
Shannon failed To do. make n frs,
division club for Virginia. fans. Art
i1izctte who worked as temporary
manager for the Red Legs for a. while
and who was a valuable member of
the local club in the Minny league. is
to head Conrad's Fort William club.
According to an announcement re-
ceived yesterday Fred Curtis has sign
ed to manage the Peggers. Darby
O'Brien will be with Duluth again;
Lefty Davis will make another at
tempt to give Winona a championship
club and Eddie Wheeler, a former st.
Paul American association player, will
pilot Grand Forks. 1t is said that
Bob Cnglaub will manage the Fargo
Moorhead team although no formal
announcement has beer made.
There is no dope on Superior's prob
able manager. Bill Sommer has made
no intimation as to who he wants to
get or who will probably sign. All that
he a Y is that it will be q good man
and Superior will have another first
division club and 4 championship
contender.
AT any rate there will be seven first
class managers in the league. Darby
