ROMP
ON The SEVILLE
Kent Holds SeviIles HitIess While
Teammates Piles Up Seven Hits.

The Whitmans walked over the Sc
villes yesterday afternoon by the score
Of to l. four Of the runs coming over
in the opening frame. From that in
ming on to the close, both teams played
bang-up ball, with the exception Of
the fourth inning in which the Handy
Kids chalked up three more markers.
Kent was the moundsman for the
Whitmans, holding the Square boys
hitless for five frames. He also aided
materially in winning his game by
showing the ball for a three-bagger.
Baisden for the Sevilles was unsteady
in the pinches, being touched for seven
safeties. These, coupled with several
errors both of commission and onis-
sion, were responsible for the Whit
mans tallies. For all that, the game
was very interesting and well-played.
M. Lewis socked the apple for dou-
BILE and Johnny Geist lifted the pill
for triple being put out in home
trying to stretch the hit into a Ruth
special Graham starred in the field,
accepting four hard chances without
an error Brown also covered first
base to perfection. Sperdutc crossed
the Whitmans by stealing second base
In the second inning.
Four tallies were made by the Whit
mans In the opening stanza- C. Lewis
was given a life on Nelson's tumble.
Pinney hit to right and Lewis held
up at third base. Pinney went to sec
ond on the play to catch Lewis. Johnny
Geist swung at three and went back
to the bench. Olsen attempted to sac
rifice but when Graham's throw to
the plate was too late to catch Pin
ney both runners were safe. Olsen
stole second and scored on Mac Lewis
spiffy double to left. Kent famed the
air. Olsen counted on Roukey's blow
to left. Bell ended the slaughter by
grounding to the pitcher.
The Whitmans added three more in
the fourth. Roukey opened the inning
by grounding TO the box. Bell lined
to center. Sperduto making a nice
catch. Gould took one of Baisden's
shoots on the shoulder. Lewis hit
to Reilly. who let the ball get
away. Pinney came through with his
second hit. a line drive over first base, |
scoring Gould and sending Babe to
third. Johnny Geist tripled to deep
left, scoring Lewis and Pinney but was
out at the plate. Van Metre to Cole
man.
The Sevilles had been on base in
every inning except the fifth. Sperduto
scored the only run in the second by
stealing second and scoring /
On Colemans error. Three Square |
boys reached the initial sack on free |
passes and one by Tut's error, but they t
either expired on base or were out /
stealing.
Harry Gould was back in a Whit |
man uniform yesterday and got a big I
hand from the fans. Harry responded /
BY scoring a run.
Turnbull and McMurray Of the Pen
sacoia regulars umpired the game and
lid the job very nicely.
Today's contest will be between the
Sevilles and the Baptists

Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1921-04-29
PROFESSIONAL MENp1cAs1s.

This is the time OF year when the professional beg
gar may be expected to make hts appearance. With the
advent Of warm weather, he comes out Of his winter re-
tirenfent and travels abroad to find the places where the
picking ts good, and to make the most of whatever oppor-
tunittes there are to live without work. There have been
fewer OF these professional solicitors In Grand Forks dur
ing the past few years than formerly, one reason undoubt-
eddy being that methods have been taken to provide for
the relief of the actually helpless and needy in . sympa-
thetic manner. and to exclude those who are merely prey.
Ing on public generosity.
There is at work in Grand Forks lust now a man
OF husky appearance who has been deprived of \ hand
and arm, and who carries . statement declaring that he
is subject to epilcptic fit, and Is therefore unable to- work
and Is soliciting funds for the maintenance of himself and
mother. The Herald knows nothing about the facts in
this case. The mans statements may be entirely truth
ful, but the probabilities are against it. He must belong
somewhere, and there is no good reason why he should
leave his home town, wherever that may be, and visit
strange communities to solicit aims from persons who
know nothing of him. If he were q local man, the ual
al provision for aid would be available to him. Care
destitution, and a Grand Forks man, helpless as this man
represents himself to be, would be taken care OF, and the
wants Of himself and members of his family provided
for.
To make donations to strangers who so about solicit.
ing from house to houat is one of the best ways to encour.
age fraud. The old game is familiar to many; but other.
do not recall It.. Fake testimonials and documents Of al
kinds arc the easiest things in the world to manufacture
or to obtain. and too often the charitable individual con
suite his own comfort and convenience rather than tn.
public welfare or even the welfare Of the solicitor ii
making a small donation in order to get rid OF the appu
cant rather than reporting his case to the public author
tiles. The suggestion is offered that when I, strange so
hcitor for charity presents himself, he be referred to thu
police or overseer Of the poor. These officials know Jus
what to do, and il the applicant presents himself to them
and. II not, he will be thrown into the lookup or run ou
Of town.

m-KAIsER NOT INCLUDED.

Nine hundred Germans are to be tried at 1eipac in
the near future. These are persons who have been charg-
ed by the Allies with the commission of grave crimes
during the war. The trials will be before German judges
but representatives of the Allied governments will be pres
ent at the hearings. efa-
The former kaiser will not be among those present.
His trial for high crimes and misderneanors was demand
cd, but he is not within the jurisdiction either of Germany
or any of the Allied governments. The German govern
ment cannot place the former emperor on trial because
he Is not in Germany. A demand was made on Holland
for his delivery, but that demand was refused. the Dutch
government holding that It could not in honor yield up
to another power an individual to whom 1t had granted
the right Of asylum.
The decision Of the Dutch government was as expect
ed. 1t could not very well have been otherwise. And we
suspect that the decision was quite satisfactory to the
other governments, for it relieves them of the necessity
OF solving a lot OF knotty problems which would present
themselves il Wilhelm were actually to be placed on trial!
The former kaiser is doing no particular harm where
he is. And, so far as punishment is concerned, he Is IN
dersotns a punishment with which anything which could
be devised by human ingenuity could hot compare.
