George Lee, former Concordia college star, now playing manager of the Crookstonians, is confident that his troupe can invade the scene of his collegiate triumphs and even things up with the Twins.Crookston’s Red Sox have been in the habit of trouncing alll opposition in the immediate vicinity of the Red River Valley and other pointa, save for the invasion of Alexander's House of David boys, and that defeat at the hands of the Twins has caused some little rumpus among Crookston fans. Basing their hopes on Brewer's chagrrin and Lee's promises, a large delegation will accompany the team here tomorrow to get the lowdown on what may develop into a baseball feud between the two cities.
