CENTRAL LEAGUE REVIVED;
Slx.CluB CIRCUIT PLANNED

presented by some Of the larger cen.
trail west cities.
Rockford Applies.
Rockford, ILL.,, applied for admission
to the league. Fred Hunter, minor
league magnate, wanted blanket
franchise that would enable hime to
place a team in whatever city he Sc
lected. 1t seems that Hunter will
have little chance to get into the cir
cult his year.
Grand Rapids and Muskegon were
not represented. The attitude of Bert
Noblett toward the circuit. as we'll as
his unwarranted attack on Ryan and
Eggemeyer last week, could not be
explained by the other moguls. Some
believed 1t was an easy way for him
to sidestep getting back into the cir.
cult. Baseball has not gone big in
Grand Rapids despite its population
and size.
A session Of 40 games, opening
May 1, was favored, and strict salary
and player limit laws will also be
passed. 1t is decided. The majority of
club owners favored thirteen-p!ayer
limit, and it looks as ii this will be
carried out. A number favored
player limit Of IA or Is players would
be needed to keep any club up in the
running The player-limit rule will be
threshed out probably and decided up
on at the next meeting.
All Enthusiastic.
OF the six cities represented all of
them expressed desire to get back
into the league. The Richmond club
owners favor reorganization, and
will put the question of attendance
and financial backing up to the fans.
| There is no question about the inter-
est of Richmond fans. A campaign to
sell season tickets will go big, and
the club will be assured enough mon
etary backing to be able to go ahead
without worry.
All the fans agree that it would not
be fair to let the club owners worry
about the financial end OF the PROPOSE
| ton. An earnest disposition to give
| the club a little assistance will make
| the club go good here. and fans are
/! pledged to that program.
Harry Stahlhefer, president Of the
old Central League, could not attend
(! the meeting yesterday, but sent Lo-
wenthal. Stahlhefer's resignation was
not presented to the moguls. SO that
the question of a league head is still
: In allegiance, and probably will be SO
until the circuit is recognized. the
| territory chosen, and the club owners
/, ready to sign player.
/ A fine spirit of harmony prevails
among the Central club owners and If
the circuit Is reorganized. high-class
association can be expected.

Giants to Train at GAINESVILLE;
Vaughn May Pitch For Chicago

vile, one mile from the hotel at which
tho Giants will make their headquar-
tiers. Incidentally the hotel is known
as the White House.
McGraws' attention was first at
tracted to GAINESVILLE and its Qualihca-
tons as a possible training camp site
by a letter which he received from
Charlie Harris, who was teamElate
of his on the Baltimore club and who
is now engaged in business in Gains
vile. Harris extolled the virtues Of the
town and urged McGraw to take his
club there.
The training trip will not mark the
occasion Of McGraw's first visit to
GAINESVILLE. Back in the winter of 1890
81, when he was a kid ball player on
a transforming team, he struck the
town in his wanderings and played in
a few games against the Cleveland
club, which trained in the town. Gains
vile now has a population of 10000, is
situated in section which boasts of the
highest altitude in Florida. and is IA
NOUS for its grape fruit production. 1t
is an inland town, three hours ride
southwest from Jacksonville.
Cubs Office recently, had pleasant
visit with Manager Mitchell, and left
with 1919 contract in his pocket.
This does not mean that Big Jim will
not be pitching for the north siders
next summer. 1t simply means that
he didn't take the figures into consid-
GRAFTON after the first glance and de-
cirded to wait until later before agree
ing to them.
Vaughn is busy body in the pro-
duction of automobiles, has purchased
a home in Racine, and to all outward
conditions, doesn't seem to worry
whether baseball goes on or not. He
went to Chicago after having obtained
a few days off from his work in the
factory, the first he has had since last
fall.
All Vaughn had to say about the
figures in his contract was that he
expected to be in the city for a few
days and would study them.
1t was quite apparent that the first
| figures named by the club do not CO.
| incide with those in the mind of the
| big southpaw, but 1t is not at all likely
there will be trouble in coming to
terms with him for next season.
Fred Fulton has bobbed up with the
assertion that Willard, in proper
shape, will beat Dempsey in long
! fight. Fulton also insists that ints-
much as he has twice defeated the fat
Mr.. Willie Meehan in Frisco. he is en-
| titled to another match with Dempsey,
| who lost quer decision to Meehan
in four rounds last year.
