however. He Immediately raised a
roar about being placed with the Sec
ond cam.
Are you going to play first on the
regulars?" he demanded Of Bob.
That's my position" answered the
colonel.
We'll, why don't you give me a
chance?" asked Pugh.
Bob carefully explained that in put
ting Pugh on the second team he was
doing just that-giving him a chance.
He told him that he was going to
watch him play, and If he was con-
WINGED that Pugh was a better first
baseman than he was. that he would
certainly give him the bag. There
are six other positions l can play"
said the former Boston star. and l

Schmirler, the left handed pitcher,
has a quick deceptive snap toward
first to keep the runner hugging that
bog. Suddenly he tipped it to Pugh
and the latter. entirely unprepared,

It almost bowled him over and as he
untangled, himself from the knot he
had been knocked into, he yelled at
Schmirler:
Hey, don't you know better than
to try to catch a runner off first with a
man on Second?"
Bob roared back at him, wanting to
know If that was the way Pugh ex-
pected to beat him out of his Job.
That night Bob released over twen-
ty of the squad by the simple expedi-
ent of writing a list of those he want
ed to keep on a long sheet of Taper
and mailing it to the door Of the club
house. He informed the squad to look
it yer and any man who found his
name not there could consider himself
a free agent.
Not a single protest was heard. The
boys took their shower baths, rubbed
down and left the clubhouse. All but
Unglaub, Mike Cantillon, the man who
has charge Of the baths-and Pugh.
The latter sat for a time, while ing
laub and Cantillon talked over the
business matters Of the cam.
Finally Pugh broke in:
Say, my name doesn't appear on
that list. Does that mean that I'm re-
leased?"
"It sure does" said Bob. This did
not satisfy the recruit. and he started
an argument which Unglaub followed
UP, explaining just why he wouldn't
do. .
Finally Cantillon could stand it no
longer. :
Here you. he roared. Don't YOU
know when you're fired. Pick up that
uniform and get to the deuce out of

ut isn't that we haven't got the ma
terial," said Bob yesterday. II am
convinced hat all Of these boys have
the ability. They don't seem to have
that old pep though. They act in
different, and believe me, I have no
time to fiddle around with a bunch
that don't want to work. If there is
any kind Of ball player that gets my
goat. it's a loafer. The Ike is going
to start swinging around here If this
bunch doesn't ginger up"
And Bob means every word of that.
Fargo Moorhead fans can depend on
it, they are going to be represented by
a real ball team this year, right from
the jump. The CantiIlons have their
fingers on ball players all v this
country. No magnates in any of the
big leagues have anything on the Can
tillons in the way Of inside informa-
ton regarding players. They believe
hat it will be money in their pockets
to give Fargo a winning team and they
propose to do so.
Unglaub has already written for a
couple more singers, although he al
ready has seven or eight on the squad
and it is probable. that there will be
more life noticeable in this depart
ment in the very near future.

It is to be doubted if there are any
men playing baseball today who have
had a more varied experience, or who
have a greater lore of baseball anec-
dotes at the tip of their tongue, than
has Col. Bob Unglaub, the genial,
crafty leader of the Graingrowers-
Perhaps it is because Of the latter
fact that he is so popular with the
members of his team. Thes young
fellows just breaking into the game,
and almost ripe for the big show, are
hungry for stories of the majors and
are always eager to near Of the colo
neIs many thrilling experiences in his
long service in the big leagues.
And Bob is always ready to accom-
modate them when the days work is
done. He is a sveritable vat Of base
ball anecdotes and all that is neces-
sary Is to turn the tap, n out comes
a fresh and decidedly interesting tale
of diamond romance, adventure, trag-
edy or mayhaps comedy. And the
colonel is constantly adding to his
store.
One of his latest yarns concerns a
happening during the present spring
training season. There was a young
fellow named Pugh, who was recon-
mended to the Fargo-Moorhead man
agement by one of the officials of the
league. 1t appears that this official
had q close personal friend in Des
lMoineS and the young ball player in
question was a friend Of the Northern
league offlcials friend.
So on the recommendation of the
league official, Bob consented to give
the youngster a tryout.
When tho colonel arrived at Mime
apolis, where there were forty-one
candidates for the team that has now
been nicknamed the Graingrowers, he
found q most unusual situation. AL
most every candidate, except the
pitchers and catchers, appeared with
two gloves. One was the usual big
first basemaE's init and the other was
the usual fielder's glove. Asked what
positions they played the ambitious
candidates almost invariably parted
with the counter question: Where are
said first, then the candidate seemed
to lose all interest in the big NIT he
carried at once-they all played some
where else on the infield or outf1eld.
No one wanted to contest Bob's job.
Young Pugh from Des Moines. how
ever, was a first baseman. He frankly
admitted that nobody else had a
chance to pay first while he was out
for the job. Unglaub did not say
anything about the position that he
was to play. But in the first practice
ans and "Yannigans", Bob placed
himself on the initial bag for the reg
ulars and put young Pugh on first for
the other team. &c.,.
The youngsters were given one Of
the strongest pitchers, Schmirler, to
even things up.
Usually the boys who are breaking
in are modest and obey orders with
out a murnur. No so with Mr.. Pugh

I don't care to make any predictions

feel certain that we will be up at the

saw us perform in two games and he
seemed we'll pleased with the team,
and 1 myself am also pleased. We are
we'll balanced in every department.
Our catching staff and infield and out
field I don't think could be improved
upon. We have lines out for a good
right-hand pitcher, and if we land him
we will be in fine shape. Swain has
been hitting the ball to all corners Of
the lot and l am sure will be a tower

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

The celery and cheese sandwiches are delicious. A little mayonnaise is mix ed in with the cheese, which is finely grated, the celery being put through the nnincing machine.
 To clean brass that has been exposed to the weather, make a paste of salt and common vinegar ;rub the brass with the mixture and leave for ten minutes. Then clean in the usual way.
 Sew snap fasteners on each pair of stockings at the top and have the wearers snap them together when talk ing them off. They can be 1aund cred this way and save all the bother of try ing to match stockings.
 Old table linen is almost priceless in illness. The thin servfettes are so soft for cold pads and congresses. The worn table cloths make excellent band ages and if cut up into pieces as re- quired, are invaluable for dressing burns. In infectious diseases they can be curt up for tray cloths and covers for table and chest of drawers, while the serviettes can be used for trays, and when dirty can be burned
