The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1922-07-06

= There has been some doubt for some
time whether the Valley City Dakota
league club would continue in the
league or not owing to the financial
support which the club has received
from the fans of the city. To deter
mine the best course to pursue the
management requested M. E. Cantil-
lon, president of the league, to meet
with the directors of the club. Mr.
iCantillon arrived this morning and is
meeting with the management today
Some definite action will result from
the meeting, but what it will be is
problematical. In any event re fans
will know after today whether we are
to have baseball club or not and if
the decision to continue is made the
will need the support ri
every fan in the city, both morally
and financially.

SPORT HASH
It's been long time since we've
read of pop bottle-cushion fusilade at
the umpire. A real honestto goodness
battle occurred at Washington park in
Los Angeles Sunday when the stands
failed to appreciate the decisions Of
Umps Eason. They met the disapprov-
al of the fans and L.. A. players so
often that fistic encounters were mar
rowlv averted. Eason marched from
the field surrounded by 10 stalwart
member of the village constabular
force. Baseball is grand old game.
Kenneth Grumbles, captain Of
the El Centre track team and ex-
ponent Of the art of hurdling,
may go to the state meet at Stock
ton next Saturday. An effort is
being made by Coach Schlosser to
send the boy to the northern city.
: Grumbles won fourth place in the
low hurdles at L. A. a week ago.
Spectators say he would have
placed at least second if he hadn't
hurt his right knee on the last
barrier. The coach at Oxy says
Kenneth has a good chance for
placing in this event.

Nearly 10000 horses went to the

most prominent jockey developed
was Jack Huntamer, Croffith says.
A number of other riders have the
"makings' for international repu-
tations and will win additional
glory at later meets.

like that. Seems Mrs. KS niece had
been having some social rivalry with
Senator Y IS sister, and Mrs. x laid the
attack on K in the senate by Y to that
social war. 1t was an affront to her,
she said, and blood, buckets of it, or
words to that general effect, would be
required to wipe out the stain on the
K honor.
What shall I do?' walled poor x.
He had sent for me to advise him. I
had to laugh in his face, though
heaven knows he was sight for tears
rather than laughter.
She insists must assault him, and
by physical violence wiring from him
an apology to her and to her niece, as
well as to myself, he went on.
"That was too much for me. I had
to get somewhere where / could laugh.
So. managed to tell him L would get
in touch with him later, and then I
staggered out. l took a few of my
colleagues into my confidence, and we
got word to Y that x was looking for
him to carve him up and that he was
carrying a couple of big guns. Y, like
most bullies, was q coward, and when
the senate met that day, his absence
on official business was announced.
He didn come back for three weeks,
and L may say that thereafter he let X
severely alone.
"X never spoke in the senate after
hat without first looking furtively into
he gallery to see if Mrs. X was there. :"

Great strength is an advantage when
the batter hits in poor time. His
strength enables batter to mistime a
ball yet get good results. Wagner, Ruth,
Heilman, Hornsby, etc., are so strong,
| hit so hard, that they can get hits on
ball hit out of time where weaker men
or men who hit with less application of
force, would get pop-flies or weak
grounders.
The ball must not be hit while too
far in front of the batter lest the force
of the stroke be spent before it reaches
the ball.
| The ball must not be hit too late,
when it is close upon or past the batter
as il will smother the bat stroke, de-
prive it Of it's power. In this instance
| the ball hits the bat rather than the bat
hit the ball. The pitcher beats the
batter to the punch, smothers his stroke
before it gets going. Most foul and fly
balls are caused by poor timing, hitting
too late.
When the batter wants to pull the
| ball Chit on the same side Of the plate
as that on which he stands), he should
| hit it while it is some four feet ahead
Of his forward leg.
When the batter wants to drive Chit
to centerfield), he should hit the ball
when it is some two feet ahead Of his
forward leg.
When the batter wants to cut the ball
(hit to that side Of the plate opposite
to that on which he stands, he should
hit the ball as it reaches the plate or
even after it passes over the plate
Change of pace, location of pitch, in
side or outside, all have their affects
upon these injunctions, but they may be
taken upon the whole as sound guides
for young batters.

that day g amusement, and to have him,
vertible worm, turn on the great Y
was astounding. Word of it spread
through the cloakrooms like wildfire,
and the senate filled up in jiffy.
HOnce started, X, like many of his
kind, was hard to stop. The further he
went, the madder he got, and the dress
ing down he gave Y was a beauty. Y
tried to comeback at him, and they
finally began to get personal. The
vice president kept his hands off as
long as he dared, for as he told me
afterwards, he wanted to see Y get all
that was coming to him.
cat last, however, he had to stop the
fuss before it got too rough for SEN
atorial dignity. Y crawled out of the
chamber like whipped dog that day,
and x, madder than q wet hen, started
for the cloakroom.
Gas he went, he happened to glance
up, and looked into his wife's face. She
was in the senatorial gallery, and X
wilted when he saw her.
"The good Mrs. X was what one
might call strong minded. x got one
flash at her face, and turned pale. She
was mad clear through, and X thought
her anger was directed towards him.
He hid out in the cloakroom but she
sent for him, and after stalling as long
as he could, X went to meet her.
tThe next morning he phoned me tt
come to his office. Such sight! The
man was a wreck.
"'Why X" said, 'what on earth is
wrong with you9 Are you ill9" HI
was pacing up and down his office, al
most tearing his hair, biting his lip,
and behaving like man demented.
"'In,' he echoed, ill? I'm dead
that what 1 am And he broke ou,
into the most emphatic and sustained
burst of polished profanity 1 ever re
member to have heard. Nobody hal
ever heard him swear.
"Well, to make long story short,
got from him at last that his wife de-
manded that he bring her Y's scalp, or
his head on q charger, or something
