ter will be discussed tomorrow night at a meeting of factory representa- tiNes in the Y, NJ. C. A. at 5;s0 o'clock. Three teams, 1t is said, are anxious 10 enter and have so signi- fed while there are three others at least who will go into the league providing 1t is decided to form the loop.
 Every year there has been a league at Walnut Hill park that has kept the interest of baseball fans in the city at fever pitch. Last year the City League, conducted under the direction of the public amuSo- ment commission, had its most suc- cessful year. This year, there may be an Industrial league and 1t is a question whether or not the City league will be organized again.
 There are some teams In the city who will not welcome the return of the Industrial league because they will be barred from entrance, but the question works the other way for those in the factories who want 70 play baseball. When the City league Is in operation, the Factory league players are out of luck.
 There may be chance to run both leagues. but this hardly seems probable. The developments in the next few weeks will show just what Is to be done this season.
 Si Mcdonald, former star player and later an umpire in the Eastern hague, is having a depressing time trying to have his squad of candi- dates for the Hartford Eastern league team get proper workouts, Rain and bad weather have inter- rupted the program outlined by the Hartford pilot so that Si is pretty well discouraged.
 Eddie Hackbarth of Meriden l seems to have landed a place with ! the Senators as backstop. II isn't very far distance from Meriden to 1 Hartford and with the popular Sil- | yer City player on the Capital Citys 1 team's roster, there are sure to be 1 n number of Meriden fans at tho 1 home games in Clarkin Field.
 Adam Sullck, local bHckstop who ! has disported with the alcons, has 1 an excellent chance to break into , hague play by getting 8 tryout with l the Hartford team. Sullick ia green , yet for professional baseball, but he has much ability and should go il long way with the proper training. Mcdonald has promised 10 give him l a thorough test and will do his best fo land him somewhere if he doesn't want him, where his work will be watched and his playing hc dc7el- , cpcd.
 Berg, Corbin Red soX twirer, Is With the Springfield Ponies showing his stuff on the slab. Thus far, no rrrorts have come in as 10 how he is progressing though predictions arc
  job with the Eastern league. Ills work about the state in the semi- confessional ranks gave indications that he was about ready 10 step out in bigger time.
 We arc in receipt of balIyhoo I >hcot rom the manager Of ElllE ,etrouc. so-callcd Fargo EXpress' rnd on it is a list of the fighters 1ic- times. Needing the list is Louis tKid) Kaplan of Mcridcn, feather weight champion of the world
 We don't know when WI have se en anything more silly than this , is. The opinion of those out in the great open spaces where men ar" Lien and women chew snuff concern ing the pcopl" In the east, must I'r ,,trange to say tho lcast.
 It wa3 only few short weeks ago that We saw Kaplan and Tetrolie meet in a ring in Hartford. The only thing VIC can say about that is that the fans were sorry for the Wcstnrncr.
 Kap!an gave him terrific pastins in every round tnd the famous eH- press must ha1c been without a fire man that night. So, with the great | l'aIlyhoo we have received this . morning, we are constrained 10 ', ,.rand 1t as silly and nothing more.
 Kaplsn might not be the most , clever featherweight champion the T Worll has ever seen. Tn fact. hr isn't, hut he is Pctrolle's master every time. The comparison between the two fighters Is about the same AS between Paul Bcrlenbach and q Ray Neuman with Kaplan. the \ champion showing 8 much better brand of fighting than tho light | roa1yW"iEhr champion. " Eight fans are turning their eyes oWarjs April 2s the dare on which Jack Delaney, Bridgeport Adonis. is R scheduled to meet King Solomon, (, Jewish heavyweight from New York. N l'elan"ys appearance in the ring W the other night in Hartford showed ' him 10 be even more beautiful figure than the many descriptiops Of him.
 r Ha is the picture of clesn-cut. E sparkling manhood and looked fin K the ring. with his college cut clothes, just like the pictures in the mag aZines. Women might have gone ', crazy over Georges Carpenter but si they haven't seen Jack Delaney vet. n
