RICHMOND WILL HAVE BALL IF LEAGUE STARTS Camouflage, Says Eggemeycr, of Report that Richmbnd to Be Out of League. Richmond will have- berth In the Central league this season If the league does not disband, according to Elmer Eggemeyer, president of the club. "There fs no auestibn about Rich mond landing a place in the league if the league starts at all," President Eggemeyer said Monday. The report that Richmond will be out of the league, under new plans being made by the president of the league. Is camouflage, according to the president of the Richmond aggregation. Riahts to be Decided Territorial rights will be decided at a meeting of Central league representatives to be held in Louisville on Jan. 13. Richmond will send a representative to the meeting. The following is reprinted from a Chicago paper: TERRE HAUTE. Jnd.. Jan. Pres ident Harry JStahlhefer of the Centra! league is reported to be busy trying Ao form a circuit for this year. Necessarily it must be radically different from the one which finished last season. The president does not dlscussi the situation because it is complicated at present. Muskegon is out for good and the players are being disposed of. Wachtel. the star pitcher, goes to Columbus and Pitcher Allen to the Fort Worth team. Outfielder Herndon was sold to St. Paul.

Grand Rapids will not try to weather another season and with Muskegon gone Michigan is no longer to be traversed by Central clubs. Manager Kssick, who has been at the head of the Grand Rapids club, goes to the Vernon Coast league club as manager, not only as playing boss, but business manager as well, io which latter capacity he bad a trying and wisdom-begetting experience at Grand Rapids. Peoria still bas under consideration -a berth in the Western league, but there is reason for saying that if the Central can be reorganized with other Illinois towns as members, Peoria prefers to remain in the organization with which it finished last season after the Three Eyes quit. A Tentative Circuit A circuit much discussed is composed of Peoria, Rockford, Bioomlngton and Decatur, or Terre Haute as the western division and Dayton. Spring field. Fort Wayne and Evansville. The aggregate would be as large as that of the latest planned Western league. BASKETBALL SCORES At Terre Haute, Ind. Staunton, 23; Garfield. 20. At Perrysville, Ind.

Not only did Ferdie Schupp perform brilliantly throughout most of last season and top it off with a shutout in the world's series, but he also distinguished himBelf by striking out more men in one game than any other twirler in the big leagues. Early in July be fanned an even doze Cardinals in one afternoon. Jim Vaughn of the Cubs was the star striker-out after Schupp. He struck out eleven men in one contest, ten' in another, nine in three games and eight in three. No other pitcher in either league struck 'em out in so consistent a way as Vaughn. t Harry Laross, well known minor league outfielder, who finished last season with the Peoria Central league team, is a recent enlistment. He goes into the Quartermaster's end of the war game. The American Association pitchers will have to do without their shine balls and other such tricks next season. Queer deliveries were so many in the Association last season that the batters were almost helpless and the umpires were frantic. Looking over the balls seemed to do little good and no matter how many new ones were thrown out the pitcher would continue to Ix 'em up for the queer shoots. If many of the most successful hurlers are obliged next season to return to their old deliveries, it is safe to bet that there will be some free-for-all batting. Onie Bush, who has made his home in Indiana all his young life, has decided to move to Detroit, where he announces he has a good position, though Just what i3 not stated. Horace Milan, the Washington Senators utility outfielder, is now training for the aviation service. Just as expected and predicted 'Hub Perdue's retirement was not for long. The Gallatin Squash, set free by Chattanooga, signed with New Orleans the other day. Charley Wortman, shdrtstop of the Chicago Cubs, is making the off season his honeymoon. He recently was married to Mist Pamela Hinde of Kansas City. The Smith family in the majors lost two more members when Elmer Smith of Cleveland and Sherrod Smith of Brooklyn decided to go to war, but there is still enough of them left to make quite a ball team.

present time, "however, it looks like a better guess to say that the managers will be more amused than atcnished. ' ' ' Every comfort should be provided to make the season a pleasant one for the old gentlemen and if necessary the i rules should, be modified.

He is said to do some thrilling work in this role. Pacific Coast league team managers not only will have to use more b ushers under the new league regulations, but they alsoxwill have to get along with fewer players of any sort, for the league at its recent meeting cut the team limit to sixteen men. No major league club has been so hard hit in its pitching staff as the Brooklyn Dodgers. That team has lost four twirlers on account of the war so far Smith, Cadore, Pfeffer and Miljus. And to be added to this are several players from other positions. Russell Blackburne did his best work of his baseball career at third base for Toronto last season, but it is the plan of Manager Mathewson of the Cincinnati Reds to play him at short. Groh, of course, will be left at third and Dave Shean is the favorite for second base. i KEEP LOOKING It's Easy If You Know Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets The secret of keeping young is to feel young to do this you must watch your liver and bowels there's no need of having a sallow complexion -sr dark rings under your eyes pimples a bilious look in your face dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com pound mixed with olive oU to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that exuberance of spirit; that natural buoyancy which should be enjoyed by everyone, by toning up the liver and clear ing the system of Impurities.

If the fans next season are thoughtful and considerate they will try to keep a straight face while the veterans are performing. When an old gentleman limps out to bat the fans should not laugh too heartily. If one of the old men should try to steal a base it would never do to roar with mirth at his feeble scampering. And it is to be hoped that umpires next season will be more courteous and mild than is the rule. They might offer an arm to the aged' batter and help him to first if he gets a base on balls. POOL BOOM BOSS HEAD OF POLICE ANDERSON, Ind., Jan. 7. Emory W. Jackson, partner of his father, E. P. Jackson, in a cigar store and poolroom, has been appointed superintendent of police of Anderson, succeeding John W. Mountain, who athe end of four years resigned when ne learned that Jackson was to be appointed. Jackson, a close friends of Mayor J. H. Mellett, is retiring as a Democratic member of the city council. In the November election Jackson, as a candidate for city clerk, was the worst defected candidate on the Democratic ticket. Joseph E. EssingtOn, Republican opponent of Jackson, had a greater plurality than Mellett, who squeezed through by a plurality of 92 against 532 four years ago. No Police Experience. Jackson is about thirty-five years old. He has had no police experience. Most of his time for several years past has been spent in the poolroom and tobacco place established by b.is father who subsequently made his son a partner under the name of E. P. Jackson fe Son. Less than two months ago police found minors in the Jackson poolroom and a plea of guilty was entered for the place by E. P. Jackson, who forfeited a bond in the city court. The appointment of Jackson as A HEAVY BURDEN A Bad Back Makes Life Miserable For Many Richmond People. A bad back is a heavy burden. A burden at-night-when bedtime comes. Just as bothersome in the' morning. Ever try Doan's .Kidney Pills' for it? Know they are for kidney backache and other kidney ills? If you don't, some Richmond people do. Read a case of it: Mrs. Chas. Colter, 1214 South F street, Richmond, says: "My kidneys were weak and I suffered awfully from attacks of backache. My work was burdensome; I tired easily and often had to stop and rest. Headaches and dizzy L spells annoyed me and my kidneys acted irregularly. When I read about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a supply from Thistlethwaite's Drug Store, and they soon rid me of the backache and restored my energy. I felt stronger and bettsr in every way."

Mowe of Rochester, Indiana, Coach .Lewis's assistant put the Earlham basketball men through a strenuous practice in fundamentals last week and expects to start this week putting on the finishing touches that will carry the team to the I. C. A. L. championhhip. Mowe is working against time in order to get the squad in shape for the first game, January 12, with Wabash at Crawfordsville. In coming here he thought the team was ready for the finer technical points of the game but as he has had to do some work in fundamentals be may stay longer than was at first thought. Players Are Shifted. He has been training different men at the various positions. Pitts has been switched from guard to the center position against Edwards. Jessup is still practicing at forward where he will probably play hereafter, Johnson being at his position at guard. It is thought by Earlham men that some changes in the lineup will defi nitely announced before Saturday. Brown has been away from school all this week. Already the men are commencing to show the hand of an experienced basketball man in practice, and are playing snappy schimmage games. The revised schedule for the rest of the basketball season has been an nounced by Manager Guy V. Pontius. Six of the following thirteen games are to be played at Richmond: Jan. 12 Wabash at Crawfordsville. Jan. 19 Franklin at Richmond. Jan. 25 State Normal at Richmond.

Smith Is a Republican, but neither he nor Sansberry has been connected with police affairs, devoting their time to their business.
