	IUB's Little 500
		There are so many ways to consider IU's Little 500, that annual Bloomington rite-of-spring unique to contem-porary American university social culture and still a refreshing contrast to huge-arena spectacles saturated in commercialism.
		The Little 500 offers students who don't have athletic scholarships the chance to participate in a major sporting event -- one also controlled and planned by students and former students, as opposed to coaches, fans and television.
		The Little 500 is an IU event for IU students, they say, but it's equally a Bloomington event for Bloomington residents and a campus event for the backbone of the university -- the instructors and the people who keep the place running.

		Little League Baseball is the name of a non-profit organization in the United States which organizes local children's leagues of baseball and softball throughout the USA and the rest of the world.
		The Little League was founded by Carl Stotz in 1939 as a three-team league in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
