LEAGUE NOTES

     IndyCar team owner Derrick Walker, on the IRL-CART dispute:
"Personally, I doubt if there will ever be a compromise.  I think
we'll be forever separated."  Walker was to have had drivers at
the Indy and U.S. 500's, but will instead have both Scott
Goodyear and Robby Gordon at the CART race in Michigan.  There is
a chance Mike Groff will represent Walker -- and sponsor
Valvoline -- at Indy (DETROIT NEWS, 3/15).  Entry invitations to
Indy were mailed yesterday (Indianapolis Motor
Speedway)....Diamondbacks Owner Jerry Colangelo says he still
plans to present the idea of a neutral-site World Series at next

with marketing exec Max Muhleman on selling PSLs in Cleveland
