INDIANA-OHIO CIRCUIT LOOMS BIG IN BASEBALL FIELD; RICHMOND IS BADLY NEEDED

Joe Carr, of Columbus, O., promoter for the Indiana-Ohio baseball league, lias announced that his league is,, a certainty, for he has presented his plan to several cities within a email radius and all of these cities are favorable to his proposition and will no doubt sign up the final papers. Although some very good offers liave been made by a Michigan promoter and the territorial rights have been gained, these facts do not require the Carr league to stay out of the cities, as this league has made Tlans for obtaining ball teams there before the Michigan league promoter approached the respective club owners. The Port Wayne club has already J-'been slated for the Indiana-Ohio league, and the Muncie Athletic association, the Remy team of Anderson, and the Springfield, Ohio, club are all favorable. Carr has shown these respective clubs that the radius and milelage circuit are ideal Mileage Is Low The mileage Is as follows: From Tort Wayne to Muncie, 65 miles; from TVIuncle to Anderson, 18 miles ; from jVnderson to Richmond, 49 miles, and from Richmond to Springfield, 64 miles. The populations of the cities are large enough io afford first class clubs and each city has a ball park and plenty of money to finance the . teams. Carr has been in communication 'with E. E. Eggemeyer of Richmond; W. H. Mahoney, of Springfield; J. J. Carter, of Anderson, and Don T. Sutton, sporting editor and agent for the Muncie Athletic association, and all are more than willing to attend the final meeting which will no. doubt be held this week and make the complete arrangements. . Bert Nowblett, of Grand Rapids, 13 also very anxious to get in the league but hi3 proposal 13 not being consid EARLHAM BASEBALL SQUAD LOOKS GOOD Coach Mowe's squad of Earlham baseball hopefuls were put through the most advanced workout of the season at Reid Field Tuesday afternoon, aspirants for all nine positions having opportunity of displaying their wares. - Chief stress, however, was laid by Mbwe on batting. Mowe told the squad that a good hitter is born, not made, but a poor batter could learn valuable pointers. Because of the roughness of the diamond, no brilliant work was done by the infield candidates. The outfield, however, went far and wide. Goar, Templeton and Hilliard were given opportunities to display hurling ability. Coach Mowe was most impressed with the performance of Hilliard. Raiford Probable Catcher. The first string backstopplng job seems to be clinched by Raiford. Halford held the job last season and has all the ear-marks of a good catcher. Coach Nash Higgins put the Quaker track squad through its paces at one end of Reid Field, while Coach Mowe instructed the baseball squad. Hob Johnson, astride an iron roller, put the ctader track in good shape, but the squad did not use the track. Work was confined to short dashes up and down the field. Setting-up exercises occupied the first part of practice, dash work the second, and a squad of about 20 men went on a cross-country jaunt as the closing perforuuihce. Pole vaulters also worked out Tuesday afternoon. Indianapolis Five Rolls 1,127 for Single Game, at Peoria; Is WorWs Record By Associated! Press) PEORIA, 111., March 24. Members of the Indianapolis Central Alley five, makers of a new American bowling congress record last night 1,127 for a single game were on the A. B. C. drives today, rolling in the individuals and two-men events. Every member of the team had a chance to go high into the all-event3 standings. Birk brothers No. 2, Chicago, holders of the unofficial world's record, 3,178, rolled in a regular league match In Chicago this season, also were to take the drives today, shooting for the five-men championship. Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Chicago, Jacksonville, Fla., Oskhosh, Detroit, Ft. Wayne, Lima, O., and Danville, 111., bowlers rolled in the two-men and individual classes. Wisconsin teams also were in the spotlight in the team events today, 13 Kenosha teams, 5 from Green Bay, 1 from Milwaukee, and another from Shawano taking the drives. Other teams came from Chicago, St. Louis and Louisville. KAYSES TO PRACTICE FOR BASEBALL TEAM IN PARK First steps towards the organization of a Knights of Columbus baseball team will be taken when a general practice for candidates will be held in a city park Sunday morning. Tentative games have already been scheduled with Kaysee teams in In.yianapolls. Dayton, Cincinnati and 7 Springfield. TO ENTERTAIN THE PRINCE MELBOURN. Australia. The Melhonrna City Council has voted $50,000 (for the entertainment of the Prince of Wales on His lortnconung visit.

ered, as that location would call for too long a trip and jump for the teams. The sixth team in the league will be chosen from three cities Dayton, Lima or Marion, Ohio. Competition Would Be Keen. All of these cities are close together, the radius is very Bmall and the competition would be keen. The Michigan league Is composed of teams from

cities of which several have populations of less than 10,000 and only two with parks. Carr is BUre of his league and announces that although the Dayton proposition is a hard one to deal with, he is sure to get a team from Dayton or Lima, and if not, from there, he is planning to get a location at Marion. Ludington and Manistee, Michigan, two of the teams in the proposed Cen tral league circuit, have a population of less than 10,000. Ludington has no Daaeoau pars, ana Manistee has a park but no grand stand. The expenses of a Richmond club to either of these places would be greater than the drawing power of the clubs could keep up. Support is Promised. Letters have been received by Elmer Eggemeyer, who is being looked to by other members of the proposed circuit as the leader of the Richmond organization, promising support to a new league. Word from Springfield, Anderson and Fort Wayne says that both places aro ready for the league. Muncie is considering the Central circuit, but backers of the I-O league feel confident that if Marion and Richmond join the new league Muncie will fall in line. A meeting of league leaders will be called for next week, it is believed, and the outcome of this meeting will probably decide the make-up of the baseball map in Indiana. Ohio and Michigan. Bowling A regular family brawl featured the opening number of City League bowling at Twiggs alleys Tuesday night, when the smaller K. of C. five outtalked the bigger Knights in two sessions. The Seeders were determined to win at least one game from the league leading Tramps in the second setto. The first game failed by a good majority of pins, the second was lost by four pins but the last game wa3 seemingly won by one pin. However, developments showed that Scorer Bennett had made a mistake in marking Erk's score and the one pin mistake caused the Seeders to be content with one game. High score with 227 went to Erk. Huffman grabbed average with 182. The scores: K. of C. No. 2. Handicap 146 pins.

Larry Doyle, veteran infielder, announces that he found, last winter, the fountain of youth for which Ponce de Leon and about ninety million other birds sought in vain. Said spring was in Cuba, he avers, and he states that, as a result of a winter on the sunny island he is set to play second base for the Giants as he played at his best, before age began to slow him up a bit. Before Doyle reported to the Giants this spring, McGraw had about made up his mind that he would have to develop a youngster for the second sack, but now he means to start Doyle at the position and give him a chance to demonstrate the dope that he is "10 years younger." Doyle was born in Caseyville, 111., which may have been named after the guy that struck out. Larry is 34 now and has been in baseball since 1905, when he started out with Mattoon in the Eastern Illinois league. He joined Springfield in the Three-I league in 1907 and was sold in June, that year to the Giants for the reported price of $4,500. He became the Giants' regular second sacker the next season, and starred through the following campaigns until traded to Chicago on August 2, 1916 with Hunter and Jackson for Zimmerman. His usefulness with the Cubs was short-lived as he sustained a broken leg in a game September 9. He was with the Cubs the following season, but on January 4, 1918, was traded with Wilson and $15,000 cash for Pitcher Lefty Tyler of the Braves. Four days later Larry was told to pack up again and was traded to the Giants with Jess Barnes for Buck Herzog. Doyle has always been there with the stick. He broke into the ,300 class in five campaigns while with the Giants the first time. His stickwork, his spectacular and steady fielding and his baseball brains helped McGraw to land the National league flag three years In a row. Indiana Fives Best in West, Their Victories Show That Indiana may well claim the Interscholastic basketball championship of the West and even the United States is shown in the record of the victories this season of the two Indiana "outlaw" fives, Wingate and Crawfordsville. In the two tournaments In which these teams have contested this season, 63 teams representing ten states have fallen before the attack of the Hoosiers. The following states are included in the list: Illionis, Iowa, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Michigan, Pennslvania. Minnesota, Kentucky, Ohio and Louisiana. The closest score that either of the fives has been held to in either tournament was three points, Crawfordsville winning by only three points over Hamilton, O., in the finals of the Cincinnati tournament Crawfordsville's victory over Central High of Minneapolis in the Chicago semi-finals was the next closest score the Hoosier five has been held to. Chicago's championship five, Oak Park, fell by a two to one count before Crawfordsville, 34 to 17. In addition to this pair of Hoosier battlers, Indiana has another brace of aggregations that would hold their own with any of the above competition. Franklin, state champions, and Anderson. GARFIELD BASKETBALLERS TO PLAY CONTINUATION QUINT The Garfield Varsity basketball quintet will hook up with a team representing the continuation class of high school in the high school gym Thursday afternoon. Philip Kessler captains the Garfield squad. A return game wiffbe played In the Garfield: gyntAext week.
