PAGE SIX BISMARCK HIGH T0 HAVEHEAVY FOOTBALL CLUB John Lee and Ted Meinhover Represent 450 Pounds of Fighting Tackles McLEOD OPTIMISTIC Expects’ Between 40 and 50 First Class Gridders to An- swer First Call With nine lettermen returning and a host of promising line and back- field candidates eager to get into the moleskins, prospects for a winning football team in Bismarck high school are exceptionally bright this err. according to Coach Roy D. cLeod. : Candidates for the grid machine will report for the first practice of the year Tuesday night at 4 p. m., the coach said. The first week will be taken up with falling on the ball, tackling, lectures on rudi- ind running, Mac says. Bismarck will have one of rgest high school football teams in the state this year is indi- cated by the fact that John Lee, 280- und tackle, and Ted Meinhover, 20-pound tackle, will both report for duty this year. Size is a big thing in high school circles, the local men- tor believes, especially for line work Captain-Elect Gone The Bismarck squad will begin the season captainless as Bert Dunn, cap- tain-edlect, carried enough school work last semester to be graduated. Four backfield men, one end, two tackles, and two guards are return- ing to the squad this year from last year’s letterman group, and will be the most-likely early-season choices for positions. They are Fay Brown, quarterback; Earl Hoffman, full- deck; John O'Hare, fullback; Gordie Landers, end; Ted Meinhov: Ben Jacobson, quarterback; Jim S! pat tackle; Robert Paris, guard, and Elmer Klipstein, guard. Candidates from accordin, Lee, Wallie Greene, halfbac! Meyer, center; Grant Hartley, cen- » ‘er, and Elmer Church, guard. Frosh-Look Good A great crop has come up from last year’s . freshman-<squad and should make things exceptionally hut for the experienced men. Amon, this group are: Frank Smith, half- back; Henry Potter, halfback; John ged: Frank Walz, end; Jim Joh , end; John Sprigg: halfback; Dale Brown, quarterba: oor mero: cheer Harold Tait, tackle; Ra: seth, guard; and George Skaff, end. Besides jthese groups, several new men have 3i their “intentions of entering school but their football ability is en unknown quantity, ac- cording to McLeod. The coaching department has made arrangements to take care of ftom 40 to 50 candidates. Practices will be held on the practice field north of the Richholt school most of the time, according to the coach, with erenel sessions set for Hughes | PIRATES DROP | ~ OLD STAND-BY New York, Bea 1.—(AP)—The jarnhart, slugging ' Pennsylvania Dutchman; removes » another old stand-by from the roster - of the Pittsburgh Pirates. ‘ oot oe eaeanee on option ke iy lanapolis the American association, which is in the midst of a hot pennant fight and Meeds an experienced outfielder to replace Adam Comorosky, whom the recalled several days a: The fact that Barnhart’s release w not outright paves the way for his teturn to the Pirate fold, but on the face of things it appears that the ’s major league stur definitely set. « Earnhart came to the Pirates from ° hag a the Southern agsoci- *_* @ see Steele Meets Jamestown Northern Pacific Nine Here Tomorrow in Grudge Game Arising From Tournament; - Grays Clash With Jimmies Monday Afternoon Bismarck baseball fans will be treated to two snappy games over the week-end. Sunday at 3 p. m. Steele meets the James' Northern Pacific nine in la grudge battlearising from a dis- pute in the second annual Bismarck tournament . conducted ~ here : last week-end. Monday at 3 p. m. Bismarck will meet the Jamestown Northern Pa- cific club. ee If Steele and the Jimmies have re- tained their tournament pitchers, Rafferty and Teie respectively, the Sunday contest has a most appeal- ing nature. e mustached Billy Rafferty, Fargo twirler who tosses them over for Steele, pitched two shutouts in the tourney for Steele in successive days, the semi-final and final con- hipped the Jamestown Northern Pacific club 10 to 0 Satur- day and Bi rek 4 to 0 Sunday.’ And in the meantime he was clouting doubles all over the diamond. | But Lefty Teie’s record with a weaker team apparently at the time of the tournament, did equally as well. In whipping Fort Lincoln 1 to 0, Teie allowed only 27 batters to face him in nine innings, or three men an inning. Two men were lucky enough to get on base but they were Bia ty in double p! One soldier secured the only hit of the game, but if two Jimmie fielders’ could hi decided which should catch ‘the fly, the soldier’s hit wouldn’t have been a hit. Scorers couldn’t give the fielders errors be- cause both stated before touching the ball so they to give the bat- ter a safe hit. In that game, Teie whiffed 13 batters. Two days later Teie beat the Bis- marck Workmen 5 to 0 in six nings. The game was called because of delay by rain. Teie whiffed nine batters in those six innings and al- lowed but two hits. That the pitchers could put up a nice pitchers’ battle is evidenced by this information. : The Bismarck-Jimmie game will also be interesting, because the two teams did not meet in the tourha- ment, a game that was desired by fans. If Doe Love's arm is in good con- dition he will probably do the mound work for the local club, and the re- mainder of the Bismarck lineup will be the same as it was in the tourna- ment.

In batting, “Goose” Goslin, Wash- ington outfielder, is only three points ahead of Lou Gehrig of the Yankees; Waite Hoyt of the Yanks three games in front of Lefty Grove, Philadelphia pitching ace, and the Yankees are only two per- centage points ahead of the Athletics in team batting, unofficial averages including Wednesday’s games show. In team fielding, Boston is leading by only one point. Goslin has .377 and Gehrig .374. Hoyt added another game to his string during the week and now boasts a record of 17 won and three lost. Grove, however, won two and is second in the pitchers’ race with 20 victories and six defeats. On the basis of actual pitching, Grove has an edge on Hoyt. He has hurled 213 innings, allowing 192 hits and 53 walks. Hoyt has pitched 200 innings, allowing 208 hits and 44 walks, Johnny Mostil of the White Sox still leads in stolen bases with 21 to his credit, but Myer of Boston is only one behind.
