D., July 30—(>}— Bismarck and Enderlin junior Legion ball teams sqared off against each other at 9:30 a. m. this morning the first game of the first round of the tenth junior Legion state tour- nament. Williston and Fargo were to meet at 11:30 a. m. to complete the morning round while at 2 p. m. Minot Dunn county were to open the aft noon series. At 4 p.m. Grand Forks, defending champion, meets Cando to Decide the fourth semi-finalist. Saturday’s semi-finals are at 2 p. m. and the final is Sunday, starting at 3 p. m. Dunn county’s champions from Kill- deer, in charge of Coach Ken Eckes, were the first to arrive, reaching here Thursday morning. A tour of the city is scheduled Sat- urday morning. During their stay here the athletes will be housed at the YMCA and at fraternity houses on the University of North Dakota campus. Bismarck, Fargo and Minot, in that order, rank as the outstanding chal- lengers to Grand Forks title, with the veteran Capital City outfit rating the number one position. Seven members of the team that lost last year’s final competition are in the lineup this year. The 1936 champions, ruined by graduation, have a heavy-hitting out- fit, a group of fair fielders and pitch- ing that may be brilliant or very poor. Dunn County is considered the best bet for a dark horse candidate.
