S. A. L. DISCUSS TEAMS ENTERING LEAGUE IN 1916

The S. A. L. held a meeting last night at the Y. M. C. A. to discuss what teams will be in the organization next year. Messrs. Ulrich and Puckett want the league composed of factory teams only, and if this Is done It will mean the elimination of the champion Vigrans, and their place probably will be taken by the Pennsylvania railroad team. Robinson & Co., and the Westcott Motor Car company withdrew their applications, and the Starr Piano company was unable to be represented. No Date Set. The committee appointed by President Brebm to arrange for an open house to entertain the players and their wives and friends at the Y. M. C. A. some time in January was continued. The committee reported that it had been unable to secure a definite date from Secretary Learner. Omer Todd represented the Pennsylvania railroad at the meeting and stated that the boys connected with the road were willing to enter the league, provided they could secure the players they wanted so that they would have a representative team. Anxious to Play. Mr. , Todd said, he did not care whether his team finished in the race in first or last place, but that he was entering simply for the sport and recreation It furnished the boys. Whether they get a franchise or not, Mr. Todd said, the P. R. R. boys would have lots of baseball this summer. President Brehm said that It was his idea, and he believed the idea of the league, to equalize the strength of the teams by trading, and thus make the race for the pennant more interesting. The Athletic association of the A. S. M. company has adopted a rule not to enter a baseball - league which is not composed of factory boys- exclusively, and there is a question whether they "will remain in the league. Mr. Brehm, after listening to the details! furnished by John Ulrich, appointed Karl Meyers, Sam Vigran and Alfred Bavis a committee to wait on the officials and put the matter before them. Mr. Bavis made a strong talk on the value of harmony among the managers, and said it would do more to help the game than any other thing. He spoke of the dump across the Doran bridge, and advocated an eight club city league. He said he would lay out a diamond there for the use of the league. THIEF, RETURNS $260. VALPARAISO, Ind., Dec. 10. A conscience stricken burglar returned to Mrs. Esther Radkey, a widow, her pocketbook which contained $250 after having stolen it from her home last week.

Word has been received here that Welcome Whitaker, 69, president of the Goshen Buggy Top Company, is dead at Detroit.

POLO PLAYERS SET FOR GONG IN FIRST GAME

Richmond. Pry Lou Quigley Sox Quigley Indianapolis. Lewis ....... r Rush Rush ........ i Long Harold Center Evans Able Half Back O'Metz , Mays Goal. Above Is the line-up of the two teams that will try conclusions at the Coliseum tonight when the local polo season will be officially opened. Every man on both quintets has earn ed a reputation to be proud of and that the game will be bitterly fought every minute of play there is not a doubt. From a glance at tie line-up it would appear as though Richmond had the better team and no doubt the local boys are stronger at certain points but Indianapolis has some fast men and they will put up a fast game and make the locals hustle to beat them. Long and Harold have had sufficient experience to know how to block the clever tricks that will be worked against them and the Quigleys will not find them easy. O'Metz will tend goal for Richmond and about his ability as a polo player nothing need be said. Mays the Indianapolis goal tender is one of the best men at the position in the middle west and it will take some hard and fast shots to get by him. FORD TEAM PASSED BY DAVIS MACHINE The tiny little Fords were not on any peace mission last night at Garfield school when they fell down before the extra weight of the Davis machine for the Fords were fighting all the way in the basketball game which they lost 8-2. DaviB' boys played fine ball and their defensive work was just as strong as their offensive. While the Fords had lots of chances to tie up the score the machine failed to respond and they missed basket after basket. The mileage : Davis. Players F.G. Fl.G. F.
