POSSIBILITY OF TIE
 IN s. N. E. LEAGUE
Webster Times" Sports Writers Dope is However Full of It.

The Sports writer for the Webster Times has issued a dope sheet showing the possibility of the South ern New England League race end ing in tie.-He says:
 The 1880 championship race of the Southern New England League now lies between the z. P. R. K. club and the Slater Co.,, of Webster, and the Putnam Silk Sox of Putnam, Conn.,. with the St. Joseph's Young Mems association, also of Webster, having mathematical chance of winning the title.
 If the Zips defeat the Slater Com pany in it's next game, the North Grosvenordale mill team at North Grosvenordale on August 10 and Quinebaug at Quinebaug on August l7 and lose to Putnam on August 24. the present league leaders will have a percentage of .g50.
 If the Skaters lose on Saturday and then defeat Quinebaug on Sunday August 10, St. Joseph's on August IT. and North Grosvenordale on August 24, it will have a percent age of $50
 If Putnam wins over Quinebaug on August Q. St. Joseph's on August 10. North Grosvenordale on Angus, IT. and z. P. R. K. at Webster on August 24, 1t will have a record of 700.
 If the Skaters win their game with the Zins and Putnam loses it's gamo the z. P. R. K. club will have clineh- ed the pennant, providing that it also defeats Quinebaug and North Gros- venordale.
 Two defeats and two losses for the Zips will endanger their hold on the Southern New England league flag if either Putnam or Skaters win the four remaining games. If Put. nam wins all of it's remaining games while Kozlowski's Zips are splitting the Zips and Putnam will be dead locked with fourteen victories and SIX defeats. If the Skaters win all of their remaining games while the Zips split even the East Villagers and the Zips will be dedloeked.
 Three defeats for the z. P. K. K. club would eliminate them from the championship entirely.
 St. Joseph's must win it's four re. maining games while one of the three or the Zips are losing prac- ticallv all of theirs. Another defeat for the Saints will eliminate them a: contenders.

BLUE CAPS LOSE 11-0
 TO INDEPENDENTS

On Tuesday night 500 people watched the Putnam Independents hand the much heralded Blue Caps of this town a bad trouncing, banging Harper and Pigeon all over the lot for q total of twelve hits in seven innings. For four innings both teams were held scoreless through fine pitch ing on both sides. In the fifth the Indies fell on Harper for four hits including two doubles which netted two runs. In the sixth, the Blue Caps hurler was hit SO hard and of ten that he had to give way to Pi- geon who didn't do much better for after that inning was over, seven Independents had crossed the plate. Two more scores were registered in the seventh.
 Ray valade, Assumption College star hurler, was on the mound for the Indies, and was very stingy in al lowing hits, for only two scratch bin- gles were registered against the dim- utive pitcher.
 Charlie Murphy played his usual steady game at short handling six dif- ficult chances without slip.
 Tex" Jarvis who was added to the Indies for this game came through with two crashing doubles and two singles in four times at bat.

 Game
Bay State Outfit Goes into First
 Place Tie

Putnam Silk Sox batted three Sla- ter pitchers all over the lot on Adams field last Sunday afternoon but were unable to win the game. Slater won 9 to and thereby jumped into a tie for first place. The outfit from over in the Bay State also did some feature batting, running up a total of thirteen hits off Franklin and St. Onge. The game went to ten innings.
 Franklin and Hannifan of the Sox hit home run drives as their contri- buttons in a losing effort to bring their teammates through. The slug ging of the locals sent Moran, who dethroned the league-leading Zips earlier in the season, to the showers after q third of an inning in which he was nicked for three hits. Der nacki. who was sent to the box, did- mt last as long as his predecessor. Towner. who finished the game, was also hit freely. The fine exhibition of hitting was of no avail.
 Webster Also Busy
 While Putnam was staging it's slugfest the Skaters were going equal ly as well, in fact laid by majority of two safeties. The visitors landed on St. Onge for a total of ten hits in five and a third innings and brought their total up to thirteen by three more hits off Franklin who finished the game. Stevenson, l. C. C. short stop of Providence contributed three out of five and Towner. Providence pitcher. hit three out of five includ- ing a double
 Putnam entered the contest in q manner that seemed to assure vic tory. With six runs in the refrige- rator in the first inning it looked hope less for the visiting aggregation when they sent one man around. Then Skaters started and scored two in the third, one in the fourth and two in the fifth. With the score tied, 6-6, the minutes were anxious ones for the fans. The Sox took tine lead by scoring in the sixth. The Skaters tied again in the Sth and the ninth passed without a run.
 In the tenth Skaters put two runs over. Putnam was unable to score and the game was lost. The game was featured with Mike ] Hannifans sensational stop of kaba las grounder, shutting off two r1n' in the ninth inning.
 Hannifan's homer came in the frs inning with the bases full.

Product of His Environment

is said that certain traits in another person become
l abominable to an individual possessing the same
= characteristics. Thus person of conceit detests
the same trait in another Literature reveals that
authors often berated their contemporaries for
characteristic quality which was prominent in their own
personality. But do always recognize the truth in
ourselves? More often person is blind to his
faults while the same faults perfectly obvious in
his friend 1t is when tells that have
this or that fault that feel resentful. Why? Be-
cause it is the truth that hurts
Sinclair Lewis is not popular with his readers al
though his books widely read and generally dis
cussed. Lewis is too much of critic, and critic if
he does justice to his calling invariably tells the blunt
unwelcomed truth about ourselves Is it not that
Lewis has been portraying of abominable
characteristics which instinctvey despise that
to slap and knock his literary productions
OF course, he may have drawn these lines a little
sharply, perhaps with shade of caricatMe in por-
trayal of the various typical American characters But
he is all the effective for that for carica-
ture has its place in literature when comes to arous
ing public apathy.
Caught in the spirit of his age, Sinclair Lewis
has expressed this feeling wildly in caricature,
fectng certain characteristics of American life
which may be true but popularity unwelcomed.
