ToniGht'S Games Corbin SrccW Ns. Corbin Cabinet Fafnirs Vs. Stanley Rule

fdfnlrS NS. stanley ItllIc
 I.andcrs Ns. r. X. F. Corbin
 The gradual elimination of un,h fcated teams in the Industrial Ba;i- kctball league which started Tue';- day night with the defeat of LaIt- ders will be continued tonight when one of the four that have not been defeated will be beaten. Fafnirs and Stanley Rule. two of the undcfeated teams, will have it out tonight and the winner will be assured of tie for first place.
 In tonights game at the Tabs hall, three of the teams which are now in first place with a mark Of 1000 per cent will battle. In the first game if the Screw Shop team defeats Corbin Cabinet Lock there will be q triple tie for the top po- sition with the Stanley Works, Cor bin Screw and the winner of the Fafnir- Stanley Rule game. How ever, Stanley Rule has played one less game than it's two rivals and therefore will have to place a bit lower than the other two even though it may be d first place team from the percentage standpoint.
 Last year Corbin Screw won the league championship without much trouble. Two of the keenest riva s for second place were the Stanl,y Rule and Eafnir teams but when the league came to an end tEe Rulers had captured the honor with fafnirs in third place.
 These two teams are evenly matched and are considered logical contenders for the pennant This year the Fafnir team has managed to stay up on top in the league race despite inc fact that it's star forward, Howard Bclser, has been out with an injured hand. Eesler is not expected to be in uniform to- night but he is definitely scheduled 10 start playing for his team next Tuesday night against Corhin Screw. There might be a possibility Of his being in tonight's lineup.
 If Corbin Screw continues 10 play the basketball it has been exhibiting all season and if Corbin Cabinet Lock does not play any better than it has been playing. Corbin Screw should be good bet in tonight's game. The Cabinet team plays T good defensive game but it has no ohensc. One factor which is a strong point in the Cabinet Lock teams defense is "Chief" I.arson's uncanny ability to take the ball off the blackboard after his rivals have been unsuccessful in shooting This prevents follow-up shots. The Screw Shop team has specialized in this type of olIcnsc.
 Coach Bates of the P. & F. Cor bin team will start new lineup in an attempt to put the Park street : team in the winning column. Dick German will be at center. Joe Jas per and Bcrgcron will be at the Berlin will hold down the guard positions. Ray Hoist. veteran cen ter. will ret start the game but it is expected that he will get into the lineup early.
 ] The I.anders team is anxious 10 get back in winning form after it's setback at the hands of the Stanley Workers last Thursday night. It is ! proba- -le, however. that practically the same lineup will be used. l The first game will start at about ; 1:30 o'clock, the second contest will get under way slightly more than o'clock the third game will get un- der way.

 The Pathfinder was being stripped of it's wings. propeller and taii pieces today and will be shipped aboard the steamer.
 Airmcn Are Tired
 The America airmen were tired, but were greatly pleased not only with their transatlantic flight but the welcome they received in Spain, Italy and France.
 Jean Assolant, Rene Lefevre and Armcno Lotti, the French fiers who took the Americans under their wings in Paris, bade Iancey ard Williams good bye in Le Bourget and then took military plane to CherbOurg 10 give them dnOlntf farewell.
 Aviation officials of the port and city authorities formed a reception committee when the Americans came down at the Querqueville mili- tary air field after a fast flight from Le Bourget which Williams said w3s so fine that he felt almost tempted to go on across the Atlantic.

W|CKERSHAM PLAN INTERESTS CAPITAL
Doubts Divided on HO0Ver'S At-
 titude on Prohibition Letter

Washington, July 10 Ry-The pro- hibition suggestions made by Char man Wickersham of the presidents law enforcement commission in the letter read to the governors confer ence at New London Conn. conlin- ned today to engage the attention of wet and dry members of congress.
 Doubt Hoover Interested
 In some quarters, meanNhlle, II was regarded as clearly established that the president had no intention of complying with the demand of Senator Caraway, dry democrat ol Arkansas, for the chairmaE's re&lg- ration on the ground that he had sacrificed his usefulness
 That conclusion was drawn from the statement by Senator Watson oi Indiana, republican leader, in de fense of the Wickersham proposal that enforcement responsibility he definitely divided between the fed eral government and the states, which was coupled with his suggeS- ton that. If this were done, nation al and state laws might be modified so as to become reasonable and en- forceable.'
 The republican leader who is closely associated with President Hoover, interpreted the letter as urging that the states do their full duty in enforcing the eighteenth amendment
 Would Enlist states
 Chairman Wickersham's state ment." he said. was an effort 10 en- list the support of the states in do- ing their full constitutional duty. Ih' eighteenth amendment left the states concurrent power with the federal government to enforce it's provision Some of the states have not cN@r- cised that power
 Senator Borah, republican, Idaho dry leader and supporter of 1he pres ident's enforcement program. re marked that Mir. Wickcrsham hal ''at least succeeded in making I clear that he regards the prohibition law as unenforceable' He decllnct to say whether he thought Presiden Hoover had seen the letter before ! was sent 10 Governor Roosevelt O New York, who read it 10 the con ference.
 Less reticent on that point, Soma tor Tydings, wet democrat of Mary land, declared he did mot thlnI Hoover had anything to do with it., but that he regarded it as an 'of fort to get the reaction of the gov ernors so that the commission mlGh study their views" Although he l opposed to divided control' in pro hibition enforcement, he saw "meri in the proposal'' and held that it T a move in the right direction" show ing that the men at the head 0 things are at least beginning to Qucs ton where We are headed
