Project of Forming New Circuit
From Central and Southern
Michigan Was First AdvO-
Gated by South Bend Fan.

Although the proposition to ANAL
gamate the Southern Michigan and
Central leagues which has emanated
from Detroit during the week may
appear to be original on the part of
the principals in the movement the
idea was advanced months ago by
George Hahn, of the Hibberd Print
ing Co, one of South Bends best
baseball boosters who made a determ-
ined but futile effort to retain a berth
for the Hoosiers in the Heilbroner
circuit last season when the local men
We're frozen out on technicality.
In practically every way the plan
now outlined by the magnates of the
class b and class g circuits whereby
the two leagues be combined, form
ing one organization of eight clubs
located in the best towns agrees with
the plan advanced by Mr. Hahn last
spring and which has been quietly
advocated by him since that time.
Mr.. Hahn first conceived the pro-
ject when he found that Louie He'll
brOner was determined not TO allow
South Bend in his little league. In
casting about for some means of Sc
curing a club for the fans of this
section of the state Hahn got down
his maps and although several or
ganiZatiOnS were considered he, with
others who investigated the matter,
believed that a amalgamatiOn of the
Southern Michigan and the Central
leagues would make one of the
strongest class b organizations in the
country
1t is understood that the magnates
are considering taking four cities from
each league. Grand Rapids, Dayton
and Fort Wayne are the Central
league towns which would be certain
10 draw a place in the circuit while
South Bend. Toledo. Bay City and
Saginaw are the proposed Southern
Michigan cities for the new organi-
zation. The fourth Central league
town scents To be the predominating
problem in the scheme of the organ
izers al this time Evansville is too
tar out Of reaching distance for the
Michigan towns and Terre Haute ap-
pears in the same light while Spring
field is one place the magnates wish
TO avoid.
Battle Greek, Kalamazoo, Jackson
and Lansing are the remaining Mich
igan towns which are being consider
ed IL is not believed that Lansing
or Kalamazoo would support class 3
baseball. while Jackson and Battle
Greek are questionable. Toledo Is
also considered but every indication Is
that from a baseball standpoint the
Ohio town is on the blink. The
Buckeyes seem TO have forgotten
about the game with the exception Of
a knock now and then.
