that organization as circuit with only

for the formation of new league to
be composed of Fort Wayne, Grand

Should it be deemed advisable to make
the circuit an eight-club organization
Jackson and Battle Creek, also of the

taken in. President James Frank OF

in all probability be elected president
of the new organization, although 1t
is understood that Louis Heilbroner,
president of the Central league, will
also be candidate.
