tflNSON NAMED TO HEAD LOCAL OFFICEiEAGUE five-Inning Games Will be Played on Mondays, Wed- '. nesday and Fridays. Earl Stinsoa of the Postofflce team was elected by a quorum ol Commercial league managers to head the new organization at a meeting Tuesday night at the Y. M. C. A. The Palladium representative was

elected secretary-treasurer and appointed to draw up a schedule for the remainder of the season following the plan of the first two weeks', games. Owing to the fact that a new. team manager appeared at the meeting the managers of the league approved a plan for the organization of another league to play twilight ball this summer and. then hare the winners of the two leagues play a short series this fall. The purpose of the evening baseball league is not so much to win, although . the competitive element enters into the project, as to afford employes of business concerns summer recreation. Second League Planned The games played in the twilight will extend for Just five innings and will be played on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Emphasis was again laid on the rule . made at the first meeting against using outside f players in the games and playing Saturday Afternoon league players. It is thought a number of business concerns in Richmond would play evening ball and a meeting of other -business houses will be called In the - near future to establish another ball league. The Progress Hat already . has a team to enter and it is thought . that possibly Webb-Coleman and the ' Richmond Baking company will organize. Several others have expressed themselves as willing to play this

summer. The Commercial league has secured the right , to play on Exhibition park when the ground is in condition for a game. Wednesday evening the Postofflce team and Pennsy will mix in the second game of the season at Exhibition park, and Friday the American Seeders office team and the Palladium baseball nine will clash In the third game of the season. ' MANAGER LINED UP FOR QUAKER CLUB Elmer Eggemeyer, president-manager of the Richmond baseball club, announced that he had a line on a manager for the Quaker club who could bring some A-l ball players to Richmond. Eggemeyer is looking for some fast piayers that are good hitters to fill up three or four vacancies remaining on the team. He said that he could mako no definite announcement today as to who the manager was but was sure that if Richmond could secure him that he would deliver the goods. He . will hold a conference with him today

or tomorrow. Gus Banman,' an lnfielder now playing with the El wood team, has written Eggemeyer asking for a position on the local club- Banman is a Newcastle man and has been playing with the Elwood club but wishes to change as he believes Elwood is forced to make too large a Jump in the Western league. " By next Sunday when the Richmond club plays Indianapolis at Exhibition park, local baseball men expect to have a team rounded up that will do credit to Richmond in the following games. Another pitcher will be needed to relieve Minner and Harding who can both play field when not in the box, while a fast shortstop and two other heavy. hitting outfielders will be engaged if possible this week, and the Quaker club will be set. At present Richmond baseball management is placing its hopes on the players that the new manager can probably bring to Richmond as a - nucleus for a fast club.

Jess Willard, heavyweight champion, as he looked when training for b. battle with Jack Johnson, April 5. 1915. and as he looks now. Jess Willard is no longer the young man he was when he won tb heavyweight title from Jack Johnson four years ago. The pictures abov. show how he has aged. All of which means that Willard must train hard to bring back the snap and pep he had four years ago if he hopes to walk out of the ring at Toledo July Fourth with the heavyweight crown still on his head.

WILLARD CONFIDENT OF TOLEDO MATCH TOLEDO, O., June 4. With his first day's training out of the way, Jess Willard planned today , to enter the serious work of his conditioning grind for hfs world's heavyweight championship contest with : Jack Dempsey here July 4. The champion plans to increase his boxing to possibly five or six rounds and to face Walter Monahan, his chief sparring partner, in addition to Jack Hempel, the Pacific coast heavyweight and Jack Lavan, who stepped three rounds yesterday. Willard confessed this is the first match he ever made that had not worried him in advance. He is apparently sure of defeating the challenger and also is in a jovial meed, which, his handlers say, will make him take delight in his training. -His 4 famous smile is in evidence at all times and he laughs and jokes when any attempt is made to get him into any serious discussion of the coming championship contest. Willard is pleased with the home selected for him to live in a quiet residential section of Toledo, far removed from the excitement that prevails around a training camp, before an important match. - "Big Jess" plans to do his road work from the house i nthe morning and then return for the usual rubdown. In the afternoons hewill motor to his camp on the shores of the Maumee bay for his boxing and other preparations. Jack Hearns, manager of Dempsey and trainer Jimmy DeForest have adopted a novel system for training the challenger to face Willard. Demp sey will tram as if getting ready for three contests two weeks apart. Next Saturday he will start training again after-a lay oft since last Monday. In the meantime, he will spend his time romping around the camp and swim ming and boating. BUYS WINCHESTER DEMOCRAT WINCHESTER, Ind., June 4. E. P. Miller, former manager of the Princeton (Ind.) Democrat, has purchased the Winchester Democrat from D. W. Callihan and is in charge. Mr, Callihan recently acquired the Elwood (Ind.) Record and will now move to Elwood.

ZIMMERMAN WILL TRAIN HEW RACER Dr. W. W. Zimmerman will train a new mare this year. He announced Tuesday that he has secured a six-year-old. mare from Frank Morman, east of Richmond that is of fast stock and should develop into a speedy track horse. The mare has never been broke to work single, but has been working double. She is sired by Pat Murphy, a son of Anderson Wilkes, and dammed by 'Wllliar M. (2:09), a producing mare of fast colts. Morman will bring the mare to Richmond in the next few days and J. M. Kerr, who has taken care of Zimmerman's horses for years will be in charge. Kerr has aided in the training of some of the fastest Indiana horses including Single G, sired by Anderson Wilkes. Dr. Zimmerman said that he did not expect to place the mare in the tracks this year, but if it could be broke in a few weeks and showed speed he would send It to the Indianapolis track to work out and see what it could do. "I am turning to horses again," Zimmerman said, "because I feel that my health is breaking and I need to get out in the open more." Kerr and Zimmerman expect to go to the Indianapolis track in the near future and look over the horses. Kensaid that the horse which won this year would have to beat Single G. The stallion is in his best shape and should do some good work this year, he said.
