May Have Ball Team. Hammond may have a ball team after all. according to a report that was noised around yesterday. Saylor Long, who conducts a sporting goods and cigar store on Hohman street, has come forward with a proposition and if a suitable place and a team Is secured fans may have an opportunity of witnessing some good Sunday ball games. . It is probable that the suits worn by the baseball team last year will be purchased and a fast team may be put into the field. Although nothing definite has been given out, the fans are in hopes that some decision will be reached next week. It Is said that there will be but one amateur team in Hammond this year, most of the baseball players contemplating playing wit hout-of-town teams. The Zimmerman Colts of West Hammond will open up their season Sunday afternoon.

EVERYBODY WAS NUT IT IN TWIN CITIES LAST NIGHT
All East Chicago and Indiana Harbor danced to beat the band last night, there being two large balls in progress at one and the same time. One of the balls took place in the Masonic hall at East Chicago and the other at the Auditorium. Indiana Harbor, and both
were given by the police department.
The officers of the East Chicago sta
tion were the hosts at the East Chi
cago event, while the Indiana Harbor
ball was run by the officers of the
Harbor station.
It would be difficult, not to say
odious to make comparisons, and declare at which place the finest time
was had, or which was the bet patronized. Suffice It to say that there was a splendid crowd at each, representing the best people in both sections of the city, and that one and all who attended declared they had thettlma
of their lives. ... t
Chief Leo McCormack was In charge
of the event In his end of town, while Sergeant Frank Barker engineered the, other. The carnations usually distributed were dispensed with this year, as were also the programs, the police department having contributed the money usually devoted to this purpose.

'As to the officers, well they were

raised by the balls is to defray. The girls simply could not keep their eyes

There were no grand marches this formal ty being discarded along with
the programs and the carnations. Besides how could handaome Leo McCor
mack have led both? There was the rub. The decorations 'were elaborate, an$ beautiful. At both halls there were th national colors in profusion, and at the Harbor there was a large star made of partl-coloired tissue paper and bearing a silver center labeled Officer 666, nested among- the folds of the draperies which' werejfhung from the "center or the hal,to tMtiwalla, the Star being Illuminated wftlHetectrlc lights which glowed through It stransparent coloring. Other electric lights ,were shaded by the red, white and blue bunting. A good crowd, good music and fine "floors, fair women, brave men and all the rest of It, not a thing .was lacking to make the double event an unqualified success, both socially and financially.
Parsons and Mrs. Norrls served the guests with a dainty two course luncheon. Announcement of next week's meeting will be made later.
