The loop known as the Twilight league, will play seven-inning games each Wednesday at 6 p. m. rmation of the circuit was completed at the Indianapolis Amateur Bafeball association's weekly meeting’ in City hall last night. Frank .Batrd of P. R. Mallory Co. was named president of the league, Bill Calbert of Kingan's, vice president, and Lt. Edw. J. Taylor of Ft. Harrison, secretary. ! Five teams, DeWolf News, P. R.

“ vidual relays are team events.

dividual events are the 100-yard dash, the 120-yard high hurdles and the 200-yard low hurdles. The relays at Muncie probably will. draw the spotlight since it brings together Muncie Central and Anderson, the two teams now in front in the state-wide picture. However, Ft. Wayne South's strong squad could triumph and it wouldn't be called an upset. Hammond Is Tough

Hammond highs perennially tough Wildcats and the Panthers from all-Negro Gary Roosevelt dominate the East Chicago scene. The feature individual event of the day also will be staged at East Chicago. It matches Harold Morris of Hammond Clark and Milton Stroud of Gary Froebel in thé 100-| yard sprint, Morris’ 10-second-flat | clocking is the best in the state, while Stroud is one-tenth of a sec ond off the diminutive Clark speed= ster's time, Ft. Wayne North appears a “shoo in” for the Indianapolis title, although Indianapolis Shortridge might provide some trouble for the Redskins. The first Indianapolis invitational replaces the Southport relays. The Muncie, Indianapolis and East Chicago relays are the first major outdoor track and field meets of the season and, as such, they will offer a fairly comprehensive line on the half-mile and mile relay strength of the half-dozen teams considered capable of annexing the state title. Under the state meet scoring system, a squad lacking a crack relay team has little chance of annexing the championship. In a recent dual meet, Muncie forced Anderson’s mile relay foursome to the best time recorded thus far in the state—3:35.0, while in turn Anderson’s 880 combination pressed Muncie to a fast 1:33.0, also the best recorded. South Side has a fleet half mile team and the state record of 1:31.4 may be snapped.

Dizzy Trout Also ‘On Beam’

By CARL LUNDQUIST United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, April 19.—Ed- Heusser’s first pitching job of 1045 a 6-t0-0 shutout for Cincinnati over Pittsburgh, may cause fellow moundse men to raise the question when it comes time to leave for spring traine ing next season-—‘is this trip necessary?” Heusser isn't trying to help the office of "defense transportation. He

just didn't care for spring training and reported late, getting only ni

days of conditioning. But he was in mid-season form yesterday, holding the Pirates to seven scattered singles and a deuble. at Cincinnati. He walked only two men. The leading National leagtie pitcher in the earned Tun department last year with an average of 2.38, he got off to a flying start in defending the mark. Only one man reached third and only two got as far as second. ; To do that well on only nine days of training, he raises the point of just how important spring conditioning is to a pitcher, although his case probably is an exception. y The Reds, paced by First Baseman Frank McCormick * who ..had three hits for a perfect day, got off to an early lead with a first inning run They scored another in the fourth and climaxed their attack with four In .the eighth.

(Dizzy) Trout, backed by some lusty hitting from the supposedly anemic Detroit | Tigers, shut out the Browns at St Louis, 11 to 0. The Tigers made 21 hits, scoring three runs in the first inning off Brownie ace, Jack Kramer, to make Trout's work easy. He permitted only seven hits, struck out five and didn't walk any. Jimmy Outlaw, with four hits and a sacrifice, and Roger Cramer, who batted ‘in six runs, led the Tigers. Russ Christopher of the Athletics had to go 12 innings at Pliiladeiphia before winning a duel from Washington’s 40-year-old John Niggeling, 1 to 0. Niggeling had a shade th better of it until the 11th when h went out for a pinch hitter, giving up only five hits to seven for Christopher. Roger Wolff was charged with the defeat, thé A's scoring a cheap unearned run on an error which put Irving Hall on first, his steal of second, a single by Ed Busch and a forceout by George! Kell.

The rally in the fourth inning gave Dick (Kewpie) Barrett a good working margin and he had little difficulty thereafter, no Dodger player getting more than one hit. Philadelphia's rookie brother infielders, Granville and Garvin Hamner, made two hits each to pace the winners.
