CENTRAL LEAGUE OWNERS TO REORGANIZE CIRCUIT
Meet With Three-Eye Delegates at Indianapolis to Dis-y-cuss Ou00 Wednesday. WANT SIXCLUB LEAGUE Springfield and Dayton Inter ested in New Comport Ohio State League. Rudders of a new Central league will meet at Indianapolis next Wednes day either to resurrect the old cir cuit or to form a new one. The Rich mond club will be represented. Richmond's entrance into a league depends in a great measure on the cities that are included. It is believed that a compact organization of cities, geographically located to preclude big traveling expenses, will be an ideal one. Such a circuit would interest the Richmond club owners. Members of the-old Central league, the old Three-Eye league, and representatives of cities anxious to get into a new league will attend the Indiana' polls meeting. Peoria Boosting League. I. C. Ryan, president of the Peoria club of the Central, has been active in boosting the formation of . a league. Five cities in the territory formerly occupied . by the Central and ThreeEye leagues are ready to resume the game, according to Ryan. A. E. Tlerney, of Chicago, president of the tho Three-Eye league, and Harry Stahlhefer. of Evansville, retired president of the Central, have been nked to help re-organizo the circuit, according to advices that reached here today. Peoria wants some of the Three-Eye league teams in the new circuit .... . . ..;.. . -Cities That .Want to Join. Cities that have shown a disposition to grt in line are Peoria and Kloomington, II!., Grand Rapids, Mich., Terre Haute and Richmond. Efforts will be made to place clubs In Dayton, Ohio; South Bend, Evansville or Ft. Wayne. Ind.; Muskegon, Mich.; Rockford, Moline or Rock Island, 111. Folk down Ohio way don't seem to be pessimistic about the ' probability cf success for minor league baseball this year. They want to organize right before they start, and are going at it in the most business-like way. The Central league hasn't made known the territory which it might want to include in its makeup for 1919. - Accordingly, Ohloans, at Springfield, ' have started a movement to form an Ohio league. Will Claim Richmond. It may not make any difference. The Central league has the territory, of course, but wouldn't want Springfield unless Springfield wanted the Central. Dayton and Richmond, Ind., are other former Central league cities which the new Ohio league proposes td claim. Association of commerce men at Springfield are behind the movement in Ohio. They have spread .the doctrine of the "compact circuit" broadcast in nine cities. Other towns asked to send delegations to a meeting on Jan. 22 are: Youngstown, Canton, Akron, Mansfield, Lima and Zanesville. Candidates for teams continue to sprout fast in Illinois, and it is hardly probable that the Central would want to go over as far east as Ohio again In its reorganization plans. Michigan, Indiana and Illinois offer a field which is large enough, and, with Chicago as the pivot, furnishes enough of the territory of these United States in which to build a ball league. Michigan Cities Slow . While plans for a new circuit aro under consideration, someone will have to get busy if Grand Rapids and Muskegon are to pastime In Class B baseball thi3 season. So far thare has been no effort to start anything with a view to reorganization in either city. It has been assumed at Peoria that Grand Rapids is ready to string along again this year. Muskegon,, however, Isn't considered quite so attractive, perhaps, because President Marsh has let it be known that he will not back the club this year, but is prepared to give a hand to any and all persons who want their city represented. From this particular dugout, it appears that j the presence of Muskegon will be necessary if Grand Rapids Is to be represented. One can hardly survive without the other, in a baseball way, and other prospective members of the league would be Influenced greatly in their desire to join up if they found that only one city was available up this way. Want Six Club League. The task of making the league a financial success is going to be a hard one, unless the magnates get their maps out right away and make some effort to form a compact circuit. One suggestion of the best six-club league would include Grand Rapids and Muskegon from Michigan, Peoria and Bloomington from Illinois, and Rich-
-Wuond along with either South Bend
If the league is to have eight cities, Terre Haute and Evansville might be big park, which the fans will hardly!
want to see Idle thi3 season, and Terre Haute has been out of baseball so long that fans, of that city possibly would support a club better if given a chance again. There are also some first class candidates available in Illinois, aside from Peoria and Bloomington. Tlerney Popular. League President Harry Stahlhefer, of Evansville, has announced that he will tender his resignation at the meeting. Why Harry couldn't have stood by the guns until the boys got a start is hard to understand. Al. Tlerney, president of the Three-Eye league. Is more of an optimist than Stahlhefer, and possibly would make an excellent choice for the new league presidency. That he will be chosen, too, if the reorganization plans include two or more Illinois cities, is almost certain. Tlerney, along with Joe Tinker, of the Columbus slub and Ed Hanlon of the St. Joseph team of the Western league, comprised the committee which recently waited on the major leagues in the minors' appeal for relief from the draft. He has alwasted been a two-fisted fighter for the little fellows, and if he listens with favor on the proposal to merge the best of the Three-Eye cities with the Central, the league magnates could do worse than to nam him their cbleftan. Richmond was approached by the Ohio state league but held aloof until the Central league had a chance to reorganize.
Sport Snap Shots BY JACK KEENE. The history of the Giant club which recently changed hands, is interesting. John B. Day and James Mutrie, as president and manager, respectively, organized the New York club in 1883. In the same year it was admitted to membership in the National league, practically taking the place of the Troy team, which had dropped out of the circuit. Day and Mutrie, far ahead of their time in- the matter of building up an attractive team, went. about the task of securing the best possible playing material. First of all they retained the stars of the disbanded Troy team, among the players being "Buck" Ewing, who captained the team; Mickey Welsh, Roger Connor, Ed Caskins and Pat Gillespie. John Ward was secured from Providence, and with "Tip" O'Neill and Welsh formed the pitching staff. John Clapp, a catcher, with Frank Hanklnson were transferred from the "Mets." a team also owned by Day and Mutrie; "Dasher" Troy, playing second base on a Detroit team, and a few others of lesser, note, comprised the original team that later earned the title "Giants," a name that has been retained' to the present day. For ten years John B. Day was the club's chief executive, with Mutrie acting as manager for nine. Under the Day and Mutrie regime the club won two pennants, gaining the honor in 1888 and 1889. In 1892 the team was sold to C. C. Van Cott and three years later An drew Friedman paid $49,000 for 51 per cent of the stock. Then came the big year in "Giant" land 1903 it was that John T. Brush paid the then amaazing price of $100,000 for the team, a sum said to have been realize by him in the sale of the Cincinnati Reds to Fleischmann and Herman. The Giants have won eight National league pennants and eight times have finished second. In 1904 the Giants won the pennant but refused to play tho Boston Americans for the title. Twenty-three times did the club land in the first division. Always a great fighting organization, fate eeemed ever to whisk the world's baseball title from their grasp. In 1905 they won their only world's championship when they defeated the Athletics. It was a brilliant achievement, too. The Giants won four out of five games, all victories in the series being shutouts. The team was always well up under McGraw's leadership until 1915, when it slumped into last place for the first time in its history. - Garfield Sports LARGE BOYS' LEAGUE STANDING Won. Lost. Pet.

Heydler, presidents respectively of the American and National Baseball Leagues, decided at a conference yesterday not to sign at present a tentative agreement with the minor leagues. Heydler said that he and Johnson would not sign the agreement until they had time to go into the subject more fully. They may take up the situation as presidents of their respective leagues at' the next meeting of the National Commission, he stated. "I see no use in signing a temporary agreement," said Heydler. "If there is any discussion let it be over a real agreement between the two parties. The minors wanted to break the National agreement and we gave them permission to do so.
