DIR. J. c. Jackman,
Secretary Minot Kiwanis Club.
Dear Doctor:
Kindly convey to the members of
the Minot kiwanis Club the sad
news that they are hereby chal-
lenged to a game of baseball to be
played with q selected team from
the MinOt Rotary Club, at the base.
ball park in the city of Minot on
Friday afternoon at s o'clock, Aug.
IL, 1921.
Confidentially, 1 know Of none of
our members who are able to put
up much of an exhibition in the
great national game, but we have
quite a number Of ROtarians who
think they know a good deal about
the game as it ought to be played
and who in their younger days were
able to handle the h0rsehide sphere
with more or less credit. At that,
l firmly believe that the Rotarians
know more about the game than any
team you kiwanians will be able
to pit against us, and in cOnse-
quence we defy you to accept our
challenge.
! would suggest that We charge
''twO-bits" ticket, select ticket
committees to sell to the masses who
are always hungry for entertain
ment, the fund to be used by the
two organizations for Boys work.
Trusting that you Kiwanians will
display the usual nerve you are
credited with having, and that you
will mt he too slow in accepting
our challenge, I remain, (.
Most sincerely and cOckily yours,
Glenn d. COlcOrd, President.
