Stadium Ends toto II
Against ~Graingrowers

1t was some session. take it from
those who saw it.
Sc Both teams hit the balloon on vari-
Gus and sundry occasions yesterday
when the Fargo-Moorhead ball tossers
tangled with the Fort William outfit
at the stadium and the final result Of
h awful nightmare was 10 to IL in
favor of Fort William.
To call it a ball game is to libel the
national pastime. When Colonel ing

Of the first half of the ninth he gave
vent to the following:

And the fans who heard it echoed a
f%ervent, "Amen!"
Sherrin, the new pitcher who arriv-
ed Tuesday, was sent into the box for
the G~raingrowers, and it looks like he
has walked right in. will turn right
round and walk right out again." He
will have to show more than he had
yesterday If he Is going to stick in the
Northern this year. They're clouting
that old pill in 1914. You can lay to
that and the pitchers are going to see
some mighty rocky going.
Sherrin lasted two and one-third in
nings and in that time he passed two,
allowed five hits, n four runs were
scored. Mclaughlin relieved him and
got away in fairly good shape until
The ninth inning, although his support
wobbled at times and he was liberal
with his passes.

was a fatal error. The big spit ball
artist proved to be an easy mark and
after he had allowed three hits and
the score was 10 to 10 Schmirler was
called into the fracas.
In justice to the big left handler it
should be said that he had no time to
warm up properly. He only pitched
three practice balls before he was
called, and he went into the game
with gone and the bases loaded.
At that it was his own error that let
in the winning run. A comparatively
easy n was knocked to him and In
his eagerness to cut off the run he
juggled the pill and what proved to
be the winning run was across the
plate.

effort 10 come back in their half OF
