Three flesh-and-blood struggles with three great trotters and pacers | in each heat featured the running of ‘Thursday's races. Sally Romes won the 2:15 trot by showing her best form of the year, Ed Allen, driver, said after the event. ‘The bay mare was pushed in every heat by Great Wisconsin, Bundy up, and Dudley Wotam, the North Da- kota trotter. Great Wisconsin cap- tured the first heat in impressive ‘fashion but weakened from leg- weariness in the last two heats. Hedgeworth McKay's three straight heat victories were won only after the most grueling tests of the day. Bobby Williams, Burt Bell up, Lorraine ‘Treasurer, Doctor Byron up, Frisco Lad. Ed Morgan up, and Sue Treas- urer, Dyer up, clung tenaciously to the leader's flanks in every heat. Judges again faced the predica- ment of picking the winners as the five horses swept under the wire so closely bunched that only the keen eye of the experts was able to tell which horse won and the placing of the others.

The Grays Sunday will meet the strong Leeds club at 3 o'clock at the city athletic field. Played Erroriess Baseball The Cubans, managed by the vet- “an John Donaldson, most famous of all negro baseball players, played er- ball. Donaldson played in left Boardman, who hasn't pitched 15 innings of baseball in the last 12 months, had the negroes fooled last night until the fourth frame. In that stanza, however, as Boardman began to weaken, the visitors secured four safe bingles and took advantage of Puller’s error and Charlie’s gift base to a hit batter to score five runs. Charlie halted them short in the fifth. In the sixth three singles and a triple, @ base on balls, a wild pitch, and two stolen allowed the visitors: to score five more times. Charlie had 8 pretty much his own way in the last three frames. He allowed 11 hits during the nine frames and struck out nine batsmen. Bismarck’s play was marred by er- rors but the game proved interesting from the spectator’s. standpoint. Donaldson Well Played ‘The colorful John Donaldson, despite is age, presented more than a shadow of the great ball player he was at one time. The veteran col- lected two hits in four trips to the platter and scored one of the 10 runs. Charlie Hancock, catcher, and his shortstop, Art, also played ip baseball, each getting two hits in five attempts and two Tuns, Streets, flect centerfielder, hit twice in five trips. All other members of the stellar team succeeded in hi ting safely and scoring with the e: ception of Jones, one of the team’s three leading hitters, who could not solve Boardman’s slants and went hitless in five tries, and Buzz. hough the negroes proved good hitters, their fielding was nothing short of sensational. Not one error was committed by the dark-skinned troupe and several Grays were robbed of possible hits on the scorebook by the Cubans’ sensational fielding. Ed- ie Tobin, in the fourth inning, burned the middle of the diamond with @ ground clout which seemed a single. But Charlie Hilton, classy second baseman, was on it like @ chicken dinner and retired the Gray first sacker with a beautiful throw. Had Strong Arms ‘The throwing of the entire Cuban outfit was a feature, accurate and occasions. ‘Leeds is reported to have one of the strongest teams in the northeastern part of the state and will come to Bis- marck Sunday with full strength. 3 eee tt Sl meow womne Sl okeewanon Fl ecoomccom> ol coccccccom sel Ee! eecocecocce gel eococececcs Sl eonmmonnnone E51 Conmnnacces g oS 5 aloconmmonocoe HH ef a1, esterday 98 UNCES BISMARCK 10 TO 0 REJUVENATED CUBS SHELL OLD PETE TO WIN FOURTH STRAIGHT AMERICAN LEAGUE Standings ‘Won ‘Lost . 13 Philadelphia .
