Clarence Jessup, Joseph Hill and Elmer Eggemeyer, officials of the Richmond Exhibition company, will represent Richmond at the meeting of baseball moguls in Dayton Sunday afternoon. This trio goes with Instructions to post the Richmond forfeit check If everything is favorable, but under no circumstances to do so if geographical and financial arrangements are not Sfttisf&ctoryf " Officials regard the $10,000 as trust fund placed in their hands by the people of Richmond and It will under no circumstances be spent hi a manner that does not insure success. One official announces that before (Richmond will affiliate with an undesirable league, the money will either be refunded to button holders or else held over until next season. May Form Old Central. Sunday may seo tho formation of the old Central league. One complication has arisen, however. Luddington was one of the four Michigan towns entered as possibilities for the new league. Later discussion for the league formation did not include Luddlngton as a member and now an Indignant howl has been raised by organizers of that city. A sum sufficient to defray the ex- ; penscs of raising a team, hiring a maninger, posting a forfeit and repairing (the park, had been raised by Luddington citizens. If left from the league, this money will have to bo refunded. The citizens of that town are not worrying; about the money, but insist 'on having league baseball. The proposition will be threshed out at Sunday's meeting.

Reid Field got thoroughly soaked during the weather man's outburst but Saturday mornings sunshine may dry the playing arena sufficiently to permit the Quakers and Starrs to mix. This will be the first baseball game for both teams, and also the first regu lation scrap in the county. The Quak ers will have the edge in the matter of practice, for except with limbering up exercises during the noon hour, the piano makers have done no conditioning. However, the calibre of players on the semi-pro team is considerably higher than that of Earlham and Coach Mowe will be pleased if the Starrs are held to a close score. Goar will probably be given the first chance at the Starrs from the hurling line, and will be relieved by Nicholson and Hilliard. each to hurl three 'Innings. Play will be called at 3:30 and no admission will be charged. RESTORE CONVENT (By Associated Press) MADRID. April 17. Restoration to the Franciscan Fathers of the convent of LaRabida, near Palos, where Columbus stayed while preparing for his voyage that resulted in the discovery of America, has been decided upon by the Eovernment.

MARKET

GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, April 17. Grain markets have recognized the recent strong advances and ending of the strike but the break is mild. Snow in Canada and a forecast for unsettled and snow for United States has supported grain. Foreign bear news on oats has little effect. Oats have become a domestic proposition and the crop start looks late. We expect bulge selling on grains for a few days with no lengthy breaks. The southwest is taking very high cash wheat prices.

When owner Dunn of the Indians announced last winter that he was looking for a left-hander to strengthen his hurling staff, Joe Boehling took his pen in hand and wrote to Sunny Jim. "I think I can come back. Don't take my word. I don't aim to have you quit hunting and depend on me. Just figure me as a gamble and give me a try." Dunn took him up so the veteran leftie has been working hard to make good. He has become serious. His failure to take the game seriously in previous years handicapped him. He has trained systematically, devoting his energy solely to conditioning himself and not to amusing himself on the field. Bert Niehaus, American Association star, and Tim Murchlson, Three-Eyes league leftie, have the call because of their work last year, but Boehling will be given a chance. Boehling hails from Richmond, Va.. and is 28. He broke Into the big league with Washington in 1912 and remained with Griff until the Indians got him in 1916. He never broke up the league, but pitched good ball and was effective for a lefty. He disappointed the Indian fans in 1917, losing six out of seven games. He was in service in 1918 and after an unsuccessful attempt to regain big league form last year voluntarily retired. EARLHAM TRACK MEET IS POSTPONED UNTIL MONDAY The annual inter-class track meet at Earlham has been postponed until Monday afternoon. Coaches Mowe and Higgins had the different divisions all groomed to tear up the cinders, but the weather man did a little tearing on his own accord, consequently Monday will perhaps see the track meet.

Rev. Davis Resigns at

Liberty; Mrs. Hunt Hurt: 1. 0. 0. F. to Confer Degree LIBERTY, Ind., April 17. Owing to his protracted illness. Rev. A. F. Davis has been forced to resign as pastor of the local Presbyterian church. Rev. Davis has been ill for more than a year during which time the church has been practically inactive. The Whitewater Presbytery appointed Rev. Hook of Rising Sun, Ind., to declare the pulput vacant and to install the newly elected elders on , Sunday, April 18, 1920. Mrs. H. M. Hunt Severely Burned. Word has been received here that Mrs. H. M. Hunt was severely burned about the limbs, a few days ago In Florida where Dr. and Mrs. Hunt are spending the winter months. The Hunt party was enjoying a fish fry. and a large vat of boiling fat caught fire, and in the attempt to extinguish the blaze the vat was upset and the contents badly burned several members of the party. Mrs. Hunt's injuries will make it necessary that they spend two or three months more in the south. Encampment Gives Degrees.

American Legion With little or no assurance that a special session of the state legislature will be called in the near future, members of the American Legion, who are interested in retaining nation al headquarters in Indiana, are looking forward to the state legion convention at Vincennes on June 28, as the one ray of hope. Realizing that they must combat covetous cities at the national convention in Cleveland next fall for the honor of having na tional neaaquaners, me state legionnaires are already discussing steps to check the anticipated manuevers of other delegations. There is little chance that the special session will be called before the primary on May 4. There is no doubt that at the state session some action will be taken toward asking recognition for the former service men from Indiana.
