Teams Tied For
Division Leads

The Local IL Softball
League is nearing the end of
the first round of the sched-
ule with several of the Unit
teams tied for first place in
the standings of the American
and National Divisions of the
league.
Much heavy hitting was shown
in the contests Tuesday night
when the 19 teams of the Amer
lean and National Divisions
clashed at st. Johns Field and
Wilson Park.
One of the best games to
watch was that between the
Air.Way and Spicer Unit teams.
The much.vaunted pitc h in g
strength of the Spicer team was
held in check by the AirWay
players who held the Spicerites
to 0 to tie until the last inn
ing when Bob Pohl drove a two
base hit scoring two teammates
who had gotten on base by vir-
tue of an error and a walk. The
timely hit gave the Spicer team
a to 0 win over the inspired
Air Way team.
The Toledo Scales walked
away with their game with the
American Brake Shoe, winning
IL TO 0. Gunnar Walstrom hit
two triples and a homerun for
the scales, while his teammate,
Walter Dzienny, got three sin.
giles.
Champion Spark Plug had an
easy time with the PAC boys,
winning 13 to / The PAC team
shows a lot of promise, though.
The Schultz Die Casters eked
out a slim victory over the Lake
side Biscuits, 8 to 8. Several
errors by the Bakers caused the
defeat.
In the American Division, the
Acklin Stampers had a one-run
margin over the Mather Springs
and took a surprise win by the
score of 6 to 5. Again, errors by
Mather gave the Stampers their
Gordon Bumper almost lost in
an upset to the Toledo Joint
Council. The League leading
Bumpers had to exert every eff

the Council made every play
count. The Plaskon Division
showed lots of stuff" in de-
feating the Industrial Heat Treat
who committed several costly
errors. The Hall Unit and the
Peerless Plastics played a very
close and interesting game with
the former taking the 8 to Z de
cision.
In the remaining game, the
WHY'S Unit team
gained a hard.earned verdict
over the newly formed Martin
Parry outfit, winning by the
score of 7 to 3. The Martin
Parry team showed we'll, and
after a little practice, will be
hard TO beat.

A number OF people may tnitaA
when they read Sinclair Lewis
"Kingsblood Royal" (Which will be
reviewed in The Star next Sunday
that his tendency to explore every
problem Of the human race mas
been carried too far. To read Lewis
with appreciation or even with DIS
approval one must remember that
he spent the first IS years OF his
life bitterly challenging every idea
and convention which annoyed him
This included everything from q

"It Can't Happen Here" are
names to the public whether or not
they know anything about the au-
thor. And now people in all walks
OF life will sit up and take notice
reading men and women or not
when "Kingsblood Royal appears
next Friday.
In a former outburst against In
tolerance, Sinclair Lewis and Sid
ney Howard had some fun by spool
ing the German producer who
wanted rights for ''Dodsworth" pro-
yiding Lewis and Howard would
provide certificates showing they
were Aryans. They deplored their
lack Of knowledge Of their family
tree during the last few hundred
years, but assured him their real
names were Horowitz and Levy
which, of course, was not true.
In "Kingsblood Royal" Lewis Is
not being funny. Some people will
say something and say 1t loudly. It
is that kind Of book about white
people and colored people.
While his readers storm, Sinclair
Lewis will relax in Williamtown,
Mass, where he will enjoy their
wrath at q distance and perhaps
dream up another novel. One
thing Is certain-he will be paying
a handsome income tax.

Lincoln merely signed, reports OF
legislative bodies to which Lincoln
belonged; legal briefs signed by
Lincoln but written by others; legal
documents listing him as q witness,
and other miscellaneous bits OF
Lincoln's activities.
The book covers the less familiar
portion Of Lincoln's life. Each
year Is introduced with q brief but
Illuminating summary Of happen
ings. The annotations for the in
dividual items are lucid and show
painstaking research.
The years 1887 to 1910 were espe-
cially important because they reveal
the growth of Lincoln as lawyer.
For these years, the compiler lists
a great many Of Lincoln's cases,
chancery actions, divorces, trespass
suits. Many are fragmentary be-
cause the complete case has not
been located. In time, Wilson hopes
to unearth additional records to sup
plement them. These law cases
comprise the greater part Of the
book.
Old Newspaper files, court records
and little-used sources have been
diligently searched In cataloging
the law cases.
