LEAGUE BALL TEAM TO MEET
BOHEMIAN ALL STARS

recOrd-breaking crowd is expected to
attend, and provisions have already
been made by the management of the
BOzeman baseball club to add addi-
tiOnal bleacher seats, if necessary,
and to ask for an extension of the
grounds-rule privilege whereby a hit
into the field bleachers beyond the
race track will be considered a two
base bingle, the same as if the Brook
Ign field were roped in for a Fourth
of-July crowd.
Although Manager Jameson had
been in possession, for the past sew
eral weeks, of knowledge of the pres
cnt transforming tour of the Troll
ley-DOdgers, he was not finally ad-
vised of the intention of Captain
Manager Jack Fournier to include
BOzeman in his itinerary until last
Saturday when all tentative dates [,
were made definite through the fail
ure of the BrOoklyns to play the New
York Giants on that date; and at
which time the Giants claim to the
National league pennant was cinched.
The pennant-winning hopes of the
BrOOklynites were shattered when
Pittsburgh wormed into third place.
1t was then that Manager Wilbert
Robinson decided to send Captain
Jack F%Ournier's team out on a barn
storming tour of the United States,
Brooklyn's second-place position full
ly w%arranting such action.
On Tour of Northwest
The TrOlley-Dodgers said temper
airy farewell to the Fulton street fer
ry last Thursday, September 25. when
they departed on a tour of the north
western tour of states that is des-
tined to add luster to the post-season
history of the national game. Too
much credit cannot be accorded Man
ager Jameson for his efforts in Sc
curing this exhibition for the sport
fans of the Gallatin valley, the first
contest which a BOzeman team of bali
players has ever been able to c
with any of the big league teams in
either their pre- or pOst-season sched-
ules. Besides Captain Jack Fournier,

Although the ROzeman All Stars
have not participated in a regularly
scheduled contest since August IL.
when the advent Of the fall canning
season, the anticipated opening Of
Montana State college and other ac-
tlTitles prevented a continuance Of
the favOrite sport, the Bozeman bow
are now engaged in a schedule Of

confident will round them out in Ic5
