series. Bismarck goes to New
Rockford ard then Jamestown
b"'crc returning here to play
MinOt July 4. Boardman will
pitch Sunday.
The Bismarck baseball club CON
tractcd Il fever in jamestown. 1t
persists in Bismarck. Nirulcnt, but
not serious. No doctors have been
called in. Some Of the fans even
hope it continues. Manifcsts it5clf
in curious desire on the part of
every player to make base hits.
Sometimes commonly called IA batting
fever
The fever ragged again last even
ing on the local ball lot-raged be-
cause tho New Rockford pitchers
started out to countcract it by not
giving the Capitals chance to hit
the ball. Wanted to walk them all.
But the pitchers found the cure fatal
to the operators, and finally began
putting them over. This operation
proved fatal also. The patients came
up smiling
The score was - to L. Better luck
is promised the "1'winS" tonight and
tomorrow. The weather man turned
chilly brcezcS on the baseball park
last evening while kidding the folks
into a horrible doubt as to whether
or not it would rain. 1t rained first
at the ball park base hits. The
chilly breczcs affected the Twins"
pitchers. Running and Ryan who to-
gGther struggled through whole
inning. They couldn't locate the
rubber, Running passed three and
Ryan passed four Then Manager
Pickering went to the mound. The
bet that may be said Of his luck
is that he saved his other pitchers.
Start in High
Condor, first man up. went out
before Running's widness became
acute. Randall walked. and stole
second. Stanley walked Dougan
walked. Mr.. Running went to the
Randall walked home Boardman hit
to first and Stanley went out at the
plate. Noll pushed out single and
Dougan and Bcrnicr scored. Jennings
grounded out to first. The team Just
batted around.
The second inning is a longer
story. "Conny" was not to be stop
ped this time and opened with "a
single. Randall sacrificed but his
Myers dropped the ball and both he
and Condor were safe. Stanley
walked, Dougan walked, and Con-
don strolled home. Bernier singled
and Randall and Stanley scored.
Pickering into the box. Boardman
hit three Dagger to right-center
and Dougan and Bcrnier scored. Noll
was safe on .Ramage's error. Nord
flied to center. Jennings went out,
Kennedy to Meyers. Condor up
again. His grounder went through
Ennis legs. Randall pushed out
three base hit. Stanley flied to
right The inning was over. Eight
runs for Bismarck.
There were only two scores after
that, which in a game like that of
last evening are not worth speaking
about.
The Twins" scored in the first.
Kennedy was safe when Nord didn't
stop his drive. LAUDER sacrificed.
Ramage hit a two Dagger and Ken
nedy scored. That was ell.
Tom Jennings, Bismarck's big
smiling Highlander, looks like
warm weather pitcher, but last even
ing looked like he enjoyed the North
Pole breezes. He was in fine form.
The game boosted Bismarck's per-
centage to nicely above the $3.50
mark. 1t looks like the locals would
have to wait for the Minot series
to pass the North City gang, how
ever. Bismarck has won out Of
the last games.
Kennedy made pretty play on
Condor in the first inning, when he
picked up Conny's bunt with his
bare hand and threw him out by a
hair at first. The bleacher fans
kicked on the decision.
-
Manager. Pickering has old-timer
and youngsteE lin Jude and Ennis,
Frank Jude cavorted in the field for
the Cincinnati Nationals for five
years, after two years in the As
ISOLATION. Cato Ennis, at second. is
a 17year-old boy out of Central
High, Minneapolis. He's mighty
fast.
Newt Randall continues to be the
old fox on bases. Manager Shan
ley predicted he'd lead the league
in base stealing, ahd he may be
right
Ramage, the flashy shortstop of
the Twins" made great stop when
he ran beyond second to knock down
Nord's hot grounder. He prevented
an extra run.
Gordon has been a delightful sur
/ prise in Bismarck. He came here
