Favor Charley Can A$ Executive Heci Of Central League Several candidates for the presidency of the Central league have been put forward, but the sentiment seems to favor Charley Carr of Indianapolis, who made a talk at the organization meeting, which was a hit with those in attendance. " - He advised the league promoters to perfect their club organizations, learn what it would cost them in the way of milage, hotel bills, etc., to operate and then to give consideration first to cities that showed an ability to meet the expense account. - It was his opinion that class of cities should be considered above the mere item of railway transportation, if they indicated their patronage would balance the railway bills. In Carr as president the league will find a practical baseball man, with a world of experience and friends without number. That he resides in Indianapolis, a city in the center of the new league, is another reason for his selection, so that altogether he meets al lthe requirements for president of the proposed new circuit. Mordlcal Brown has agreed to manage Terre Haute, Rollie Zeider prabably will be at the helm at Fort Wayne. Bloomington is angling after the clever veteran Johnny Castle. Four former major league cracks are seeking managerial berths ip the circuit. , Edward Aaron, who played second base for Muskegon and South Bend in the Central League, writes from Frence that he has been attached to a company of construction engineers and that he guesses he, is stuck until the whole of France Is put in shape again. He says they work seven days a week, rain or shine, mostly rain, and that he thinks, if there were more than 24 hours in a day, they could get the Job done in a million years. Rufus Gilbert is looking after the business end of putting Terre Haute in the proposed Central League, but the fans are crying for Mordlcai Brown as the team manager. However, If Joe Tinker backs the Dayton end of the league he may want Brown to represent him there. A hint comes-from the inside that the organizers of the proposed new Central league are not so keen about Joining the National Association, but that some of them would prefer to run as an independent league a farm for the majors It it could be arranged. Their idea is that the major clubs would help finance the league and furnish players for it out of their surplus. Those who favor the independent league plan are moving cautiously and not giving out any Information until they learn If the scheme can be put through. Jack Ryan denies . the statement that a fight is being waged between Peoria and Grand Rapids. He Issued the following statement: "The reports are absurd, Peoria has no quarrel to pick with Grand Rapids. Peoria is for anything that will aid in promoting good baseball in the midwest today. We are going to Fort Wayne next Sunday with the intention of entering into organization, plans with Mr. Noblett and the northern magnates on a most harmonious basis. "I have written him that I postponed the schedule meeting of the proposed Central league at Indianapolis yesterday because I thought it best that all mid-western cities should co-operate for the good of all. I have no war to wage with Noblett and from a letter of Invitation he has sent me, I know he has none with me."

QUAKERS START SPRING TRAINING Spring training for Earlham baseball and track teams has started, according to announcement made by Coach Mowe, today. Although no general call has been made for either team, forty-five men have been doing cross country running for some time, in , work out for both track and baseball. Later a general call will be made and the teams chosen which will start the season. Owing to the fact that no Indoor training can be done at Earlham, the Maroon and White is handicapped in meeting its first opponents of the year who have had the advantage of an indoor floor for training. With the wind-up of the Earlham basketball season near at hand Coach Mowe will devote his time to the early training of the baseball and track teams. In baseball last year Earlham did not lose a came to an I. C. A. L. col lege. In the I. C. A.

It Isn't age, it's careless living that uuts men "down and out." Keep your internal organs in good condition and you will always be physically fit. The kidneys are the most overworked organs in the human body. Vben they, break down under the train and 'the deadly uric acid acumulates and crystallizes look out. Tbese sharp crystals tear and scratch m delicate urinary channels causing scrudating pain and set up irnta- ' .ions which may cause premature degeneration and often do turn into liadly Bright's Disease. .

At the first indication of trouble go after the cause at once. Get a trial box of GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules, imported direct from the laboratories in Holland. They will give almost immediate relief. If lor any cause they should not, your money will be refunded. But be sure to get GOLD MEDAL. None other is genuine. In w hnx. three sises.

REVIVAL OF POLO

A revival of polo in Indiana following the closing of the eastern season next month is assured. V . The directors of the Richmond Athletic association, which controls the Coliseum, have decided to revive the game. O. J. Campbell, owner of the Muncie rink, has picked a team and says the sport will go great there this year. Newcastle also' seems anxious for the sport. : Campbell, in the selection of his team, has included Bob Griffith, old Richmond favorite, without taking into consideration Richmond's claim to the player. . ' . The proposed Muncie line-up is: First rush, Wayne Farner; second, Harry Thompson; center, Charley Farrell; half, Bob Griffith; goal, Pence. Richmond will protest Muncie's claim to Griffith, who has been the mainstay of the Richmond team. The Coliseum directors have instructed Secretary Gaar to arrange a series of games. A number of eastern players are western boys, and the cost of bringing a few more eastern players to fill UP gaps in the teams would not be great. This would give the series spice and ginger from the very start and make it go big. . Richmond is ready for a polo revival. Skaters are clamoring for the sport and fans all over the city are anxious to see some action on the Coliseum floor. Sox Qulgley is with Lawrence as second rush. Paul Gardner has been added to this team. Blount plays goal. The conroination should be able to pull Lawrence out of the cellar position before the season closes. Players on the eastern teams, many of whom are known here, follow: Salem Alexander, Kid Williams, Jean, Cusick, Maxwell. Lowell Bob Hart, HarkinsGriffith, Asquith, Pence. CENTRAL WEST BALL MEN PLAN MEETING CHICAGO, Feb. 18. An official call for a meeting of central west baseball men in Peoria late this week was issued out of Chicago last night by A. R. Tearney. former president of the Three-I league. The clubs expected to be represent ed at the session are for the most part from territory formerly occupied by the Three-I league. Two central league cities will be asked to attend it is said. They are Terre Haute and Evansville. CLEMONS BACK IN GAME. MARSHALLTOWN, la., Feb. 18. Verne demons, for several seasons catcher for the Louisville American Association team, expects to play base ball again this season. He was discharged from the navy at Newport, R. I., Just fifteen minutes before naval discharges were discontinued. It it is understood he will play with Louisville. Garfield Sports Basketball at Garfield will start tonight for the first time in the gymnasium in the new building on North Twelfth street. Games will be played on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 3:30 o'clock to 5 o'clock and on Friday night after 6 oclock. Only scrub games will be played for a few days but it is expected that by Friday the leagues will be organized and ready to play. Six teams will be in the league for the larger boys and four teams for the smaller boys, according to Lyman H. Lyboult who is in charge of that work at Garfield. W. C. Leonard, Boston financier, will probably purchase ' several trotters soon. He paid $25,000 for Chestnut Peter last summer.

Griffith had on his club no less than ten players whose terms of service in the capital extended back to 1912, and 6ome of them baa antedated that season by several years. Johnson arrived in 1907, while Milan and McBride made their bow to Washington fans in 1908. Besides these players the 1912 roster included Avers, Gallia, Morgan, Foster, Henry Ainsmith and Shanks, aff of whom were sitll with the club at the close of the 1917 campaign, or until last winter.

Captain Mathewson, former manager of the Cincinnati National League Baseball club, returned yesterday on the trans- ! port Rotterdam.
