IAHPETOH IIHS
FROM HANKINSON
iait Sunday Afternoon on Island
Park by Score of
to 1
Hankinson came over Sunday
'4o fill an engagement, engaged by
the Wahpeton Baseball manage
ment to do unto them battle, on
the sod where battles have been
fought, won and lost to the home
aggregation. Hankinson's team
was in fact, a makeshift, to a cer
tain degree, and according to
Capt. Denning of the visiting ag
gregation, a much stronger team
will soon be in trim and many in
teresting battles will henceforth
take place.
But to get back to Sunday's
game, it will lake a much strong
er bunch to make it interesting.
JKipperton who is doing the twirl
ing for the local horse hide bust
ers, struck out twelve men anil
allowed one 'hit, but issued six
free trips.
Wahpeton gathered in six runs
in the first inning on five hits
walk with two errors. The num
ber of hits credited ware twelve.
Hein, who did the twirling for
Hankinson, warmed up as the
game progressed and after the
opening ode, made it real inter
esting for the boys. Albers, tlhe
old Hankinson standby, was be
hind the bptt for them and caught
a good gahie.
The local boys all showed up
well and the hitting supremacy of
the day belongs to Watson, sec
cr.d baseman and Larson, catcher.
Also E. Bute. Watson gathered
tlhree blows and Larson and E.
Bute two apiece.
From and including the next
peine the box scores of each game
will be published.

SUFFRAGE Aft WAR MEASURE

OPPIE'S TOGGERY
Miss Amidon is one of tlhe
youngest suffrage workers. She
had h«r early political training
with Miss Jeanette Rankin, con
gresswoman from Montana. When
Miss Rankin was campaigning in
-1913 for suffrage in North Da
kota, she took Miss Amidon with
her. The littte assistant made 91
street speeches the summer fol
lowing lh»r tour with Miss Rankin.
Miss Amidon was graduated
from Barnard college in 1915, and
is a member of Phi Beta Kappa
fraternity. During her senior year
at college she assisted in the New
York campaign for suffrage. It
was the failure of that campaign
which caused Miss Amidon to be
come discouraged with the state
by-state methods of securing suf
frage, and whidh. resulted in her
affiliation with the National Wo
man's party.
Miss Amidon will speak at the
annual meeting of the Minnesota
branch of the National Woman's
party July 11 at St. Paul. Fol
lowing the meeting a tea will be
held so all the members of the
organization may meet Miss Ami
don.—Courier News.
