 tween the Herald and Adkins Co.
 called no game, stands now with the
 Bankers and the City Hall hines tied
 for first place. Tho Herald and Ad-
 kins, to be known in the future ns

 the season
 Even the big leagues have some lit-
 tic arguments at the beginning of
 every season, so the local league Is
 no exception to the rule.
 Now that the Herald knows where
 they stand, and that they have |
 realized that they can be easily beat l
 en by the Adkins nine when they
 don't attend to business, watch our
 dust. |

 We notice that the Girls baseball
 teams are becoming active again this
 year. Two teams played last Thurs
 day evening The question is now be-
 ing asked if the St. Mary's Girls team is going to be formed this season.
 Since Art Pilz who was the main
 packer Of the team during the past
 few seasons, deciding not to take the l playground this year, there is some
 doubt whether there will be team or not.
 The local High school nine played
 the preliminary game to the Eastern

 Now that the Industrial league is on
 the way, the question rises as to
 whether any of the other teams will

 If an exception is made for one, it will
 most probably have to be made for all 1 the others.
