IXT.IA.V POLLS, Lr., i:eo. S. Ed tavis, coach and right taekle on the I'me Village football eleven for the past two seasons, and T. B. Williams, who also played on the team. have worked out tentative plans for the formation of a league of professional football teams in Indiana. They will lay the matter before the managers of the best teams in the state at a meeting to be called within the next few weeks. Messrs. Davis and Williams believe the game can be made to pay in Indianapolis and that CUire Rhode, who has been the, backer of' the Pine Village eleven, will be willing to finance the eleven in this city, providing the league could be organized on a ttasis that would enable the backers to escape pecuniary loss. KIght-Teain League Desired. Briefly, it is proposed to form i league of perhaps eight cities in the

northern part of the state, taking for

the nucleus the Fort Wayne Friars, the Wabaait Athletic Association and the dabby Athletic Association of Hammond. Those three, with the Pine Village team in Indianapolis, would be able, it is felt, to induce sportsmen fn other cities, like Newcastle, Muncie, Lafayette and Terie Haute, to establish teams and join in the movement. The idea, also, is to keep the salaries to players within the hounds of reason and to play a regular schedule of games at prices that will be within the reach r.f all and, at the same time, make the game profitable to those wh3 are financially interested. Interest t rented Here. The effort to popularize the professional gridiron sport in Indianapolis by playing two Pine Village games here last Sunday and on Thursday was a failure, apparently. Mr. Rhode, the promoter, lost money on th venture.

nut tie teets' interest has been created a.jd that, with a regular schedule of games throughout the season, profesf.imal football might come into its cvvn in this city as it has in other ri tics -Cleveland. fo;- example. Jit, Flhode showed commendable spirit in bringing such a remarkable team to Indianapolis, for the eleven included such stars as Maeomber of Illinois, King of Harvard. Bui;k and Oftie of Wisconsin. Cully Thomas of this city, Davis, Williams. Winter and Scott of Indiana, and others who have had a great deal of independent, but no college experience. That he should have lost, money . regretted by those who love clean sp.rt, but it is felt that the seed of interest has been sown here and that the Carrie can be made to pay here next year. Should the proposed league become a reality, a salary limit would be imposed, as in professional baseball, and

earn -team would be required less than eighteen players.

(Special to Thb Time?.) LAFAYETTE, INIX, Dec. 8. The seat sale for the Pine Village-Hammond game Sunday is assuming large proportions and a monster crowd will be on hand when the referee's whistle starts the combat for the state championship. The Hammond cohorts hav? reserved two sections in the grand stand and are coming in full force to root for the Clabbys. A number of Indianapolis fans are coming here for the contest, which will, draw people from every part of the state, and many excursions over the railroads and traction lines entering the city will be run. Blocker Recovering. Captain Frank Blocker, of the Clabbys, who was hurt in the game with the Cincinnati Celts Sunday and had tu be taken out -is recovering from his injuries and will take his old place at center. The ex-Purdue bearcat is playing the game of his Jife and hundreds of friend3 and admirers of the former idol of the Boilermaker fans will witness the battle just to see him in action. With the exception of Blocker every man on the Hammond team is in fine condition and ready for the gam., of their lives. King Is Baser. Every man on the Pine Village aggregation is in the best possible condition and Rhode. will have all of his stars in the lineup. Dick King. of Harvard. All-American halfback in 1!1.. has been staying at the Fowler hotel all week. He is feeling fine an 1 last evening remarked that the hour for the tHt to begin could not come t o soon for him. "I'll be ready to do ray eleventh part of the work and I know that all the rest of the. boys are piepared to do their part."

Bob La ga is claiming that his Mexican lightweight, Joe Rivers, has recov

ered the form that made him famous j

when he was in his heyday around Los

Angeles. Joe gets a chance tonight to

prove that his mentor is correct. The

Mexican will be dumped into the rinj

with Richie Mitchell, the Milwaukee

speed boy, for ten rounds in the beer

village. If he can teach Mitchell something in tho way of boxing a conservative person will have to admit that he is the Brown Joe of old. Richie is a ! fast boy, a real good .lightweight boxer. If the Mex carries the goods with

which to trim him he'll be in line for

plenty of lucrative work this Winter. Laga and Rivers actually appear verv confident about the outcome.

Their confidence is the result of Rivers'

sensational knockout of Joe Thomas at Xew Orleans last month. Joe flattened 1 the other Joe in the third round and what with the punch and a collision

between ring floor and head Thomas was in bad shape for some time after

the battle.
