SEASON EXPECTED Almost 200 Will Take Part in/ Play; Managers, Players Urged to Report Bismarck’s softball season will get under way May'17, it was announced when directors of the Bismarck soft- ball association met to map plans for the coming season here Tuesday night. Present indications point to two Jeagues of eight teams each this sum- mer, with more than 190 players ac- tively engaged on the 16 teams enroll ed, Play will be on a new field laid out just north of Hughes Field, with four diamonds now in the process of | preparation available for play five} nights a week. Directors of the association are Clement Kelley, president of the} board; Russell Mason, secretary-trea- surer; and J, E, Beaudoin, Orrie Bald- win and Bob Boelter. To Start Scason “What we want to do now,” Kelley said Tuesday night, “is to get as mal of the ‘probable’ teams in the ‘cer- tain’ column as we can. The first thing is to get sponsors definitely lined up and get managers and players started with a bang, If everything goes as it appears it will, softball is off for a big year in Bismarck.” Last year the team started out with @ deficit in the treasury, Kelley said, but this year added encouragement is given by the fact. that the season will begin with clear books and even @ little working capital. Bismarck merchants and other or- ganizations are expected to sponsor the teams entered in the two leagues, the City and the Commercial, with much the same setup planned for this year as existed last year. : One difference planned is the sched- uling of regular league play on Friday nights and not on Monday nights. Last year regularly scheduled games were played Monday evenings, and Friday evenings were left open for makeup games, This year the arrangement will be reversed. Sponsors Provided ‘Teams that have organized or are planning to organize and do not have @ sponsor were requested to get in touch with league officials in order that a sponsor might be provided. | ®- Persons desiring to play or act as managers were also encouraged td re- port to the directors, Prospective sponsors listed thus far include: Knights of Columbus, Eagles, Oscar H. Will and company, North Dakota Power and Light company, \Bowling Congress Brought to Close 157,414 Spectators Saw Trund- lers Perform in 56 Day Annual Meeting New York, May 5.—(#)—The Amer- ican Bowling Congress, which amused and aroused New York’s blase sport- ing world for 56 days, is a thing of the past, but its memory ligners in a welter of figures.

The 14 teams that saw action produced 173 hits, an average of better than 12, for 101 runs, a shade more than seven each. ‘The only safe spot was Chicago's Comiskey Park, where rain kept the Athletics and Whte Sox from opening, their series. Blast Hubbell From Mound The biggest blow to tradition was the nine-hit, seven-inning lambasting’ the cellar-dormat Reds gave Hub- bell. The Oklahoma screwball ace fanned 10 Rhinelanders but had to be lifted in favor of Harry Gumbert so the Giants might edge out a 7-6 de- cision, The victory kept intact Hub’s| two-year lei winning streak, which now extends to 19 games and, unofficially, ties him with Tim Keefe and Rube Marquard.

The Dodgers also had the hitting urge, combing the pitch- ex-teammate Ed Brandt and ing jot .| Bill Swift for ten hits, but once again Burleigh Grimes failed to find a pitcher who could finish what he started, and the Pirates included four triples and a homer by Johnny Dick- shot among their eight hits to stay at the head of the parade with a 10-3 victory.
