It is expected that Summers, the fast player who was with Bemidji three years ago, will be here in time to play in tomorrow’s game. Should | he show up, he will be used behind the bat and Fckel, who is playing pretty good ball, will be used in the out-field. “Old Reliable” Fred Baumgard- ner will be on the mound for Bemidji SAFE ON SECOND.
