Hope we don't get shot for maxi
in this Pome."
Fifteen hundred enthusiastic. fans
attended the game between the Man
dan and local mines at the new park
Sunday afternoon and were more than
satisfied with the afternoons enter
tainment. Manager Kinks speed de-
mons had no difficulty in getting by
nicely and swamped their rivals from
across the OF Missouri 10 to 5. 1t
was an cratic exhibition of ball but
the Bismarck aggregation proved
their superiority over the Mandan
club conclusively in every department
of the game.
The Capital City ball tossers start
ed off strong and at no stage of the
game were they in danger In the
fifth the visitors tied the score but
only for about one-fifty-ninth of sec
ond. Dolly Elder and his gang of
swatters came right back and forged
ahead by one score in the same frame
and in the next went them two bet
ter. In the lucky seventh they sent
over four more and it was cnch.
The game brought joy to the hearts
of the local fans for was there ever a
time they weren't delighted with a
win over their bitter rivals. The
huge crowd on hand to witness the
boys in action aided materially in
the spirit of the day and though the
contest was not sensational they were
more than pleased. OF course it is
not to be expected that the Mandan
rooters were overly fond of the trim
ming administered their newly gar
nered ball club but one always has to
keep in mind that old adage, "the sur
vival of the fttest."
One Lone Rooter for Mandan,
Mandan had one lone rooter. Rod
erick, the leading tonsorial artist in
the city across the river, held his own
against the Bismarck rooters seated
thirty-five feet around him in the
grand stand. Many times did he
plead for help from his other friends,
but the "closer one listened the less
one heard" from the enthusiasts who
hired a special to come over and see
Bismarck defeated. Mandan must
have more like Roderick to SHAVE"
the locals when they visit Mandan in
the near future. Three cheers for
Roderick, the lone Mandan rooter.
The Bright and Shining Lights.
Northrop star HEAVIER for the Halli-
day and Killdeer teams, was on the
mound for Mandan and pitched a
good game in spots. The long boy
famed twelve but the locals connect
ed when hits meant runs. He was
wild at times and three scores were
the result of his wild heaves. He was
in hole nearly every inning. All told
he walked six, hit five with pitched
balls and threw four against the grand
stand. 1t could be better and it could
be worse, everybody is entitled to
their own opinion, "don'tc know"
Dougherty worked on the receiving
end of the opposing battery and he's
there. The Yimtown coach caught
nice and got four safeties out of five
trips to the plate, one being for an ex-
ira sack.
Christy did the hurting for Bis
marck and was in fine form. The
hits secured of the husky boys deliv-
cry were kept well scattered and he
was given excellent support.
1t Is rather ticklish proposition to
select any bright and shining stars
for the local aggregation as all of
the boys played snappy ball and were
on their toes every minute of the
game. Dolly" Elder exhibited few
more Of his lightning like plays at
short and Frankenhoff came to the
front nicely again. It might be wei
to mention the work of Vivian, Bis
mafck,s quiet little third baseman,
who heretofore has been merely play
ing steady game with nothing SEN
sationAl mixed in to bring him to view
