Sept. 21.—(#)—The Fargo-Moorhead Twins, behind the effective pitching of Bill Zuber, cap- tured the Northern League baseball championship here ‘Thursday by Pounding out a 10 to 3 triumph over the Superior Blues, defending title- holders. Holding a 3 to 2 advantage in the number of games won in the title se- ties, the newly-crowned champions lost little time in determining the Championship of the 1934 season by stepping away to a three-run lead in the opening frame. Zuber, who will be given a tryout with the Cleveland Indians of the American Legave next spring, was in Tare form as he twirled the Twins to the title, scattering five hits in four innings. Only two hits came in one inning, the fourth, when Superior Scored its final two runs, Continuing their heavy stick work which has characterized their play during the entire series, the Twins Pounded out 10 safe blows, two of them being home runs by Gus Koch and Shilling. Crompton proved the heaviest sticker, getting four hits, one @ double, in five trips, Art “Red” Braga, who started on the mound for the Blues, was chased in the seventh when the Twins tallied four runs on a walk, a hit batsman, a single, and Shilling’s circuit drive over the tall wall.

Davis and Hedstrom will doubtless get the end assignments and Slattery and Woodland will probably start at the tackle positions. At the guard berths, Neff and Wilson saw the most service during Tuesday’s game while Lips put the ball in play from the center position.

The Columbus team left Minne- apolis Thursday night for its home city, after having taken two of the three games they played here. The remainder of the contests to decide the league title and the right to meet the International League champions in the Little World Series will be Played at Columbus. The Millers broke the spell of Col- umbus pitchers in garnering their inning and then coasting through to an 11 to 6 decision. Manager Donie Bush of the Min- reapolis team sent in the veteran Jess Petty to quell the bats of the Red Birds, which had pounded out two decisive victories for the visitors, the “Silver Fox” responding in good style with the exception of two inn- ings when Columbus scored all its runs, The locals were outhit 11 to 8 but the unsteady hurling of Bud Teach- out, starting pitcher and Klinger, his successor, made up for the lack of base blows, especially in the first inning.

Zup can shine up raw material as fast, if not faster, than anyone in the coaching business. Towa began to pick up last year, and will make plenty of trouble for everybody. But don’t think Ossie Solem won't miss Joe Laws. This great back showed up plenty of foot- ball in the College All-Star-Chicago Bears game Jam month—not age carrying, but in blocking as well.

Purvis comes closer to being the reincarnation of George Gipp than any back of recent football. “Duane is big, strong, and fast, can block, kick, carry the ball, pass and receive passes, and do any one of those things as well as any specialist in college football.

Back Chicago, Sept. 21.—()—Minnesota lost only one member of last year’s undefeated gridiron battle front, but ‘Coach Bernie Bierman is doing a lot of worrying about that one spot. Captain Roy Oen, fiery light heavyweight center, was the Gophers’ only graduation loss. Bierman had figured on Dale Rennebohm, but. the latter is under a scholastic cloud and may not be available. On top of that, an ankle injury suffered by George Svendsen, the other first rank candidate, is more serious than at first believed. Mark Klonowski, an end, and Bud Wilkin- son, sophomore guard, are being tried at the pivot position. Ohio State may start the season with another ex-fullback playing center.

Purdue got another intensive drill on fundamentals, and Chicago scrim- maged for the first time.
