FACTORY LEAGUE
IS PROPOSED
Saturday Afternoon Games
Will Be Scheduled With
Nearby Cities.

South Bend viii have a Saturday
afternoon baseball league composed
of eight manufacturing concerns in
and near South Bend provided that
a suitable baseball park can be Sc
cured in which the home games may
be played.
James Armour. of the Studebaker
club, has started the movement and
has already lined up the Dodge
Mfg. Co. and the Wooden Co.. of
Mishawaka; the Haskell < Barker
Co. of Michigan City. the Great
Western Mfg. Co. of Laporte; the
Foster Machine Co, Of Ellxhart. and
the Clark Equipment Co, Of
Buchanan, Mich. In addition %
those already named, the Singer club
will doubtless join.
The league could be organized and
started at once If the members of
the South Bend and Mishawaka
team had a ball park. The North
Side diamond at Mishawaka is now
being cut up into building lots. the
oliver diamond would not be suit
able for league play, and the Singer
park allows no one but their own
men TO occupy their diamond, which
is one of the best in Indiana
Thus all the parks are eliminated
with the exception Of Springbrook.
Next week city and county officials
will be visited by various represent
atives of the proposed factory league
and asked TO lend their assistance in
making Springbrook park safe for
baseball. There is TO be no league
team this year, and even if there
was to be one, it is a well known
fact that the factory league which
was operated in South Bend during
recent years was just as strong an
attraction as the Central league
team which played at Springbrook
park.
Such a league would be an i'm
mense drawing card at the old
baseball park. as South Bend fans
have always had a liking for home
talent, and we might add that many
big league player has been picked
off the sand lots Of South Bend.
Factories will be closed Saturday
afternoons during the summer, and
there will be little doing in the way
of sport unless this factory league
goes through as it should.
When a number of representative
factories get behind this movement,
and get their machinery going, Off
Gals will have a hard time turning
down the proposition made TO them
by the fans.
The amateur season is just getting
under way. There have been a few
games played already, mostly by
teams composed of members of fac
tory teams. and from present indi-
cations baseball will come back to
its pre-war status this year.

ANNAPOLIS ACADEMY
MEN WIN REGATTA
By Associated Press:

By Associated Press:
ANNAPOLIS, Md, April 19.-The
naval academy oarsmen virtually
swept themselves into supremacy in
the college world by overwhelming
the varsity and freshmen crews in
the regatta on the Severn river this
afternoon. The navy varsity finish
ed nearly IA lengths ahead Of the
Crimson, with Princeton three
lengths behind Harvard. and In the
freshmen event the navy plebes
crossed the finish line eight lengths
ahead Of Harvard and nearly 10
lengths ahead OF the Princeton
freshmen. It was the greatest defeat
ever administered to Harvard oars
men, and the margin OF victory is
probably the greatest ever hung up
in an intercollegiate aquatic sport.
The races, triangular contests.
were rowed over a course Of a mile
and seven Fights. instead Of the GUS
tomary Henley distance OF a mile
and five-sixteenths, this being the
result OF a mutual agreement Of the
competing crews. The time of the
crews at the finish was as follows:
Varsity-Navy. 1851 4-6; Har-
ward, 1881: Princeton. 11;41.
Parliamentary plebes. 11:24;
Harvard, 11;49; Princeton, 1854.
The time would have been much
faster but the races were rowed
under adverse conditions, as both
wind and tide were against the
crews. Strikingly similar were the
/ incidents in connection with the two
races, as the middies jumped into
the lead within the first 200 yards,
( with Harvard holding second place
and Princeton fighting along game
