CENTRAL LEAGUE
MEETING IS SET
Ed Smith Will Attend Gather
ing of Owners at Fort
Wayne Friday.

Pres't r. W. Dickerson Of the
Central league has announced from
Grand Rapids that the annual or
ganizatiOn meeting Of the league will
be held at Fort Wayne next Friday
and the local baseball committee
with Ed smith are earnestly endeav-
Oring to dispose Of the remaining
OF the 5000 booster tickets which
the Chamber Of Commerce promised
10 sell as assurance OF support for
the club.
Ed Smith Will go TO the Fort
Wayne meeting with his forfeit money
and word from South Bend fans that
they will support Central league
ball as well as any town on the cir
cult next season. Ed is very optim-
istic regarding prospects and says
that after the league meeting ne Will
announce the signing Of some play
ers which should be a pleasure TO
the fans here.
Indications are that the Central
league meeting will be a stormy af-
fair Wheeling holds a franchise in
the league. as does Erie. and it is
understood that Wheeling is anxious
10 come back into the circuit. but
is not considered entirely welcome
BY the other towns around the
wheel That Erie does not care TO
become affiliated with ne Dickerson
league seems almost certain. al
though the men from the Pennsyl-
vania city might put up a fight.
South Bend viii replace one of
the two cities on the circuit, while
Muskegon will replace the other ac-
cording 10 present arrangements. At
a meeting held In Muskegon last
night more than $4,000 was sub
scTibed in less than two hours for
the ball club. md indications are
that the Wolverine city will give
Central league ball good support al
though it is slightly smaller than
most towns in the league.
whether Smith will be accom-
panied 10 the league meeting 5y any
other South Bend men is not yet
known. There is a probability that
some local men viii go To Fort
Wayne Friday to further substanti-
ate claims of the South Bend fans
that Central league ball will be a
success here.
