LOOKING
PROMISING

Inc agitation which was started by
the Hammond Athletic association to
organize a northern Indiana basebalI
league is bearing fruit. A call has
been sent for meeting to be held ar
Goshen on Jan %, and it will be attend
ed by representative of the local
athletic association.
There is widespread feeling that a
league of this kind would be bound 70
succeed, and the local view of the sit
uation is that, at least. two teams could
be put in the field. One of these teams
could represent the association against
detached teams in various parts of the
country and would supply subs" for
the association team which would rem
resent the association in the league
Charles Ketchell will represent the
Hammond Athletic association at the
Goshen meeting, and will urge the
formation of a northern Indiana league
IL is expected that later meeting Will
be held. at which the summer schedule
Will be arranged.
Basketball still holds the interest Of
the members The Two Spots won
against the Gazooks by the score of %
10 3, and the Indians defeated the Shoot
ing Stars by the score of 2S to I.
The lovers of indoor baseball are
promised an interesting game naxf
Sunday when the Logan Park Athletic
club will meet the Hammond Athletic
association on the local floor !
