Wind Up Season At

Bismarck won its last game Of the
season on the home grounds Wednes-
day evening, walloping Dickinson by
score Of to l.
The contest developed into some
thing Of farce in the later innings
when the local players began rum
ming bases wild and Glowing. al
though they fielded sensationally all
through the game. Especially was this
true Of Oberholzer at third base. who
handled five chances and threw men
out at first on what looked like i'm
possible plays.
Bismarck scored In the first inning
on Haley's home run over the center
fielder's head and again in the third
when Masslnann, first up, bot a hit
and scored on twO-baSe hit by Ha-
ley. In the fourth inning Bismarck
scored sever runs when the entire
aide batted around. Olson for Dick
inson walked three men. hit a batter
and allowed four hits In the inning,
one Of the hits being home run by
Nassmann.
Schaefer pitched the first SIX in
nings for Bismarck and did neat Job.
His curve ball was breaking beautiful
~ and the Dickinson batters could do
nothing with 1t. He allowed five hits
in the six innings and struck out sew
en-. Paige took the mound in the sew
enth inning and entertained the fans
with his freak delayed deliveries. The
game was called because OF darkness
sitter the eighth inning.
Olson. visiting moundsman. was
Wild, allowing five bases on balls, hit
ting a batsman. and allowing nine
hits, but outside of the fourth inning
lie looked good enough to make the
game interesting.
The locals go to jamestown next
Sunday for their last game. A special
train will be arranged and local fans
will have last opportunity to see the
two best teams in the state in action.
