WOULD ENTER THE WESTERN
LEAGUE CIRCUIT
ANOTHER MEETING TODAY
Will Be Held at Anderson and a
Policy Adopted-Manager Hen
ley Notified.
ANOTHER MEETING TODAY

Manager Henley was notified by
long distance telephone last night
that there would be a meeting of the
Western League managers at Ander-
son today. The result of this meet
ing will be of utmost Importance to
all polodom as the policy the West
ern League is to pursue will be def
nitely settled.
A stakeholder in the Anderson
club was in this city yesterday and
he made the statement that Manager
Barnes of Kokomo, had been in con-
ference with Manager Norton, Of An
derson, in regard to entering the
Western League. The Anderson man
said that the only thing Barnes hest
tated about entering the parent lea
que for was because he believed that
his team was too weak for the COM
pany it would have to travel with.
The same authority said that Presi-
dent Norton had assured Barnes that
the Western League would strength
en- his team and that it is now a
nearly even bet that Kokomo will be
added to the circuit. In case Barnes
does jump the Central League it will
be the signal for the opening of hos
tilities and the polo war will be on.
When Manager Henley was asked
last evening to confirm this story he
refused to do so, saying that he
would not be at liberty to talk until
after the meeting had been held.
