The games is to be played with the win- ners receiving 60 per cent and losers 40 per cent of the gate receipts, and also for the championship of Be- midji. The winners of the game will be recognized as the Bemidji baseball team, and will secure games with out of town nines under that name. Harold Mitchell who has organized the Chiefs has secured the services of Catcher Danger, who caught for the St. Paul Colored Gophers last year and of First Baseman Slough, who won a reputation as a ball player while a member of the Grand Forks Picketts. I addition to these players Mitchell will have Larson stationed at Second base. Larson will be remembered as the all-around athlete of the high school teams dur- ing the last school year. The lineup in tomorows game will be: Chiefs—Danger, ¢; Hendrickson, p; Kruger, ss; Slough 1b; Larson 2b; Mitchell, 3b; Kreatz, 1f; Lemon, cf; Newton, rf. Little Chiefs—M. LaBounty ¢; R. Smiley, p; H. Bunker, ss; C. Shores, 1b; B. Erickson, 2b; E. Durshia, 3b; McClennan, 1f; Bailey cf; Sprague, rf. Johnson Asks Fewer Games. Ban B. Johnson caused a flurry in baseball circles all over the United Btates the other day when he declared he was advocating a shorter mafor league baseball schedule. The Ameri- can league chief thinks the games should begin late in April or on May 1. Many baseball officials and critics agree with Johnson in this. They are wondering what action the magnates will take. Jobnson argued that the training trips should be shorter and the cham- plonship schedule shortened also. He thinks the weather 1s too unocertain in Auril to permit of K04 baseball Favor Shorter Most players enthus utlcnlly ap prove Ban Johnson's stand that the season should start no earller than May 1., They declare that the south- ern trips, a8 now arranged, are spoil- ed and rendered useless by the expos- are of the players to the winds and wains of April, and that the athletes, in most cases, are in poorer condition by May 1 than they were when they started south in March.

Corhan, with the White Sox, is a sensational fielder, but not very strong with the bludgeon. They call “Ping” Bodie of the White Box a fence buster and he looks all of that sure enough.

John Titus, the Philadelphia right (Belder, is using a bat that has some Jhistory connected with it. In 1884 Oaptain Anson discovered a plece of timber that he considered ideal wood for a baseball bat and he proceeded to have it turned into a cudgel. Anson in his day merely had to swing it and the ball would go to the fence. It 18 80 heavy, however, that many an ‘ordinary player would hardly care to handle it. When Pop Anson retired from the game he retained this great stick as a treasure. . At last when the former star's belongings went under the hammer, Pat Moran purchased this phia Right Flelder. bat, and when Pat was bought from the Cubs delphia. Titus coaxed, and finally Moran consented to let him have the bat. His first hit was a home run over the fence off Bob Harmon of St. Louis. Titus has been batting con- sistently ever since he came Into pos session of Pop's old smasher. Big 8alary for La Cros: Ball players get fancy salaries, but they are not the only ones.

Gamblers who have lost business because they could not arouse bettors to interest in the running races at Jamestown and Pensacola have turned to baseball with the opening of the season, and already handbook men and others are preparing to drag the xlrent American sport into the betting ring. Betting achemes which have been known in Pitts| Boston and Buf- falo for some years are being intro- duced in New York, and it is likely they will be followed by attempts to “make book” at the grand stands. Handbook men who operate on Broadway from Forty-sixth street down to Fourteenth began to take bets on the results of games with the very first contest of the season. Ticket speculators, whom the new. ordinance has driven to cover and trouble, have also gone into the business. Enright, the well-known commis- sioner, who handles much money on races and acts for poolrooms in New York and Cincinnati, has prepared the most comprehensive scheme of all, He has solicitors out seeking clients for a weekly pool on the number of runs made by clubs in the Amwrican and | Natlonal leagues. He has figured out that 1,600 com- binations of four clubs of sixteen in the two leagues may be made, and a ticket on each of these sold for $1 will bring in $1,600 a week. Here 18 the list of prizes his solicitors have offered: First prize, on highest total of runs made during six days’ play by a com- binatien of four clubs, $300. Second prize, for second highest total made by a combination of four clubs, $100. Third prize, $50. Booby prize, for lowest number of runs made by a combination of four clubs, $50. Dally highest score of a combina- tion, $40. Daily lowest score, $10. Thus the gamblers can pay out only $800 & week out of the $1,600 taken in. That gives them & percentage of be- tween 75 and 100 per cent. “May be there are bettors in New York who will like that kind of a game,” sald a gambler. “There are more farmers in this city than in any agricultural state in the unlon and such a plan ouzht to prosoer. “But, you consider that in faro bank the player has I than one-balf of 1 per cent. and.that in roulette he has between 5 and 6 per cent. against him, can you imagine how a sane man will prefer to lose his money against such a bunk and still keep away from a .faro layout?” REULB.ACHYSTAYS WITH CUBS Chicago Pitcher 80 Much In Demand That He WIll Not Be Traded— _ Getting In_ Form. Manager Frank Chance of the cham plon Cubs, has had no little trouble this season in getting his pitchers inta winning form and as in seasons gone by Ed Reulbach has been one of the slowest to round to. It was rumor ‘ed not long ago that Chance had de cided to let the big fellow go, but this is doubted as the erratic pitch Ed Reulbach. er {s now rounding into form rap dly. There was a rumor afloat that Reul- bach would be turned over to the Cin- cinnati Reds in exchange for Pitcher McQuillen, but this was denled both RARE TALKS GIVEN EDITORIAL MEETING (Continued from Page 1.) ing season is long enough to mature practically all our ordinary crops, in- cluding Minnesota No. 23 corn. The average period free from Kkilling frosts is 110 days even in the very coldest section. South of this nar- row strip on the northwestern bord- er, including the greater portion of the northern half of the state, the growing season is from 120 to 140 days, plenty long enough for all agricultural purposes and . corres- ponding to conditions existing in many of our agricultural areas. Soil Survey Greatest Need. “The great need for this northern part of the state of Minnesota is an agricultural and soil survey which will clearly point out the lands best fitted for agriculture and those which will be most profitable for forestry purposes, It is desirable that these two- great industries ‘be developed side by side. The northern part of the state is extremely favorable to forest growth and under proper state management, such as we now have organized, forest culture is-going to take on a new phase and will cer- tainly be developed on a permanent basis as one of our most valuable in- dustries. Why the North is Healthful. “It would be difficult for anyone to distinguish the winters of north- ern Minnesota from those of -any other of the northern or north cen- tral portions of our country and near- ly everyone who has experienced them prefers the northern winter to the winter farther south as it is drier and less changeable and under these conditions the few degrees of difference in temperature -is.. not noticed. The air of the northern forests is unusually free from dust and especially from dust infected with bacteria. This ~makes the climate particularly healthful. The same conditions which keep the air pure prevent the rapid decay of soil fertility. Also Applies to Soil. hv Mark Grifith and Chanca. “The humus of the soil is not SATURDAY, JUNE 10, (91 (. burned up by continued bacterial action as it is farther south. Con- sequently the advantages of crop rotation are accentuated. The country is for this same reason es- pecially adapted to dairying. The quality of the milk and butter fat results in the production of dairy products of high quality and being free from infection, they keep a long time. The fact that the country is especially adapted to clovers and grasses also favors the development of the dairy and stock interests. They Blandly Go Marching on. “Through ignorance of possibili- ties of northern Minnesota lands and their proximity to - markets, many settlers are passing over these fertile fields to the prairies of Canada where they may reaise wheat and grass with little expenditure of labor but when it is remembered that north- western Canada lands are almost as high priced as the northern Minne- sota lands, when they are less favor- ably- located as to climate and mark- ets and the range of their adapta- bility to agriculture is much less, the thoughtful man will not be mis- led by the cost of clearing land and he will realize the importance of getting started in acommunity which is being developed upon a permanent basis.” FIREMEN TO SHARE $600 PRIZES Ada Raises $1,200 for Tournament Which Begins on July 4.
