THURSDAY, JULY 49, 1917. SCOOP THE CUB REPORTER SND —BALT— Mo COLEHARBOR MAKES. “FINE SHOWING IN. GAME HTH CHAS All Home Team Holds Bismarck Down to 4 to 3 Victory— Runs Bunched in Third DHAMES SHOWS UP WELL IN INITIAL APPEARANCE Coleharbor, an all-home aggrega- tion, with no hired players from out- side, made a splendid showing against the Champs last evening, when it held the locals down to a 4 to 3 vic- tory on the Bismarck grounds. Bis- marck’s run-getting was confined to the third inning, when Coleharbor in- fulged in 4 little ascension which per- mitted four men to romp home be- fore the visitors returned to earth. It is doubtful whether any purely local organization in North Dakota can compete with Coleharbor, and Bis- marck fans will welcome their return any time. The run-getting in the fourth came through three hits, one of which was a three+bagger, and two errors on the part of Coleharbor. Hannan, a home -boy, pitch a nice game for Coleharbor, as unlucky in hav- ing hits bunched on him. The whole team showed a fast, snappy organ: ization. Dhames a Star. “Dutch” Dhames made his initial ap- pearance in a Bismarck uniform, and proved somewhat of a whirlwind, be- ing credited with one run, two hits, three stolen ‘ba and three assists. “His one error was excusable. Christie took TaJcott’s plaee at the beginning of the fifth. Both pitched]! good ball, and the-entire team was up to standard, except in the seventh, , when the bunching of three errors presented the ors with a run. The Tale in Detail.

Umpires, Kelly and Dil- lon. Time, . Attendance, 150. Co. H Tonight. . This evening Bismarck meets the fast Co. H team from Fort Lincoln. The line-up includes many fast play- ers from James' , augmented ‘by stars from other company organiza- tions at the post, and a good game is looked for. 50S Loss of the first double-header by the Giants this season was a blow. That ‘Matty and his Reds did it, makes it a stab in the back. The teams are having a livelier time in the cellar than on the roof. If our athletes who have gone to France are mixers they'll bring back - with them real interest in the British national game of cricket. Poor Mike Gibbons, too, will have to bow to the lowly. He'll have to box men like Ted Lewis, who's a wel-| terweight, or start a circus. If it took five years to decide Kohle- mainen was not world’s champion run- ner, how long would it take to break similar news to Jess Willard? a Pe ce a a a Umpire Emslie doesn’t need a for- ) \a ee —— By PAUL PURMAN. If a wise fan you would be, make a couple of mental reservations and grin broadly when you hear a report of the sale of Waller Johnson, Ty Cobb, Grover Alexander or George Sis- ler. The idea comes from ajreport that Washington was about to sell’ Jahn- son-a few days ago. Fact is, these tour mefi\are unbuy- able. Even at the present monument- al prices for good ball players prac- tically all figures would be too small to remove one of these men from the club with which he is affiliated. This is not alone on account of their wonderful playing, more perhaps on account of their drawing power. When Detroit is playing anywhere around the circuit the fan goes pri- marily to see Cobb in action, second- arily to see the game. In Detroit Cobb’s drawing power is inestimable. For that reason Cobb probably will never be put on the market, even 2| though he should slip badly, for so | FOR SALE?" s) eT STAN EATE. : S=SJHE EINIsti— 50 WiLL FINISH TOMORROW— Jong as he is abie to put on a uniform and appear on the field he will be a drawing card. The same holds with Johnson, Alex- ander and Sisler. Washington is a poor drawing club. But re ‘e beosted aimost 100 per cent n Johnson ted to piteh. Fk not likely Johanson would be sold=when he draws as much as the rest of the club combined. There e been few men in base- ball in this category. Mathewson was “one, As long as Matty could toe the slab there was no chance of his being sold at any figure. The status of the club makes a great deal of difference in cases of this kind. For instance, ‘Speaker was sold by. the Boston Red Sox. While Speaker was undoubtedly the star of the club, there were several others not far be- hind him and the club would afford to take a chance on selling him for the price paid and depend on other stars to make the fans forget. STARS; MAGNATES SOMETIMES SELL STARS BUT NEVER BIG DRAWING CARDS The dreaking up of the Athletics was another example. ‘Never a popu- lar team, Mack found his attendance slipping to a peint where he could better ‘afford to dispense with his high salaried players and build up a new organization.
