Local IL Girls Play
Al Adrian Tonight

In an effort to avenge 7 to l
defeat at the hands of the
Adrian (Mich.) Steel Warehouse
Girls, last Saturday, the Local
IL Girls will 60 to the Michigan
city, tonight, for a return game
with their conquerors.
Hampered by the absense of
three regular Local IL Girls,
Coach Stanley Olson placed a
team on the field with several
substitutes against the powerful
Adrian nine. However, a full
team will be presented for the
game, tonight, and the Toledoans
are expected to have much
stronger outfit for the contest.
To date, the Local IL Girls
have played ten games, winning
eight and losing two. The two
losses were at the hands of the
Adrian lassies, and the White
house Lehmans. The Local IL
Girls have already made up for
the Whitehouse loss by winning
a return match by the imposing
score of II to Z.

George Mclaughlin To Pitch For Local IL
Z Drops
7 More Games

The Local IL baseball team
has had a hard time getting
started this season, but Man
ager Robbie Robbins a yls
that he has signed George
Mclaughlin, big right handler
property of the st. Lou S
Browns coming from the May
field, Kentucky club.
Mclaughlin is expected to
strengthen the Local IL team in
the pitching department where
the club is noticeably weak. At
times when the Local IL
moundsmen show some strength,
the team seems TO go into a
hitting slump and Manager Rob-
bins is endeavoring to make the
two divisions work in harmony.
The Local IL boys will get an
other severe test when they
meet the powerful Jim White
Chevrolets in another Fedora
ton game at 800 pm. in Ottawa
Park. Dannie Marquette, who
has done nice job of pitching
for Local IL, will receive the
mound assignment and will be
opposed by the Jim White ace
twirler, Jim Ten Eyck. This
game may turn out to be a fine
pitchers duel as both lads have
considerable Federation exper-
ience.
Last Saturday, the Lazy Boys,
of Monroe, Michigan, turned on
the heat and defeated the UAW
team, 3 to l, in another regular
Federation contest. Lefty Mey-
ers stared on the mound for
Local IL, but when the Lazy
boys got four runs in the first
and four more in the third in
ming, Danny Marquette was sent
in to relieve Meyers.
Marquette did marvellous
job in his relief role against the
Michiganders, holding tn e m
scoreless and hitless for the re-
naming six innings of the game.
But the stellar moundsman had
little help from his teammates
who were able to collect only
four safe hits off the Monroe
twirler.
Paul Wenning got a three
Dagger for Local IL while his
teammate, Joe Schuette, cracked
two safe hits and stole two
bases.
The Local II team journeyed
to Hamler, Ohio where they
were defeated, 7 to 3, by the
Merchants of that community
last Sunday. The Hamler Mer-
chants roster is composed of
several Toledoans. Among them
are Ray Roob, former Local IL
hurler and Ernie Hentges, ex-
Local IL catcher and football
player.
Each team got eight hits in
the game, but the Hamler lads
punched theirs off the slants of
Bob jenkins, while the Locals
were unable to get theirs to-
gether, Paul Wenning again
helped with the bat as he got
two doubles, and Pete Severhoff
added another pair of hits.

upset over the pow erful
American Division e d in g
Spicer team. The only hit
which Rill allowed the Spicer-
ties was solid home run smash
by Joe Schuette, Spicer out
fielder
The batting star of the game,
however, was Bob Packard,
Scale left fielder, who got a
triple and a double which ac-
counted for four runs towards
the Scale total Bob Anckneya
started on the mound for Spice
but a deluge of hits good fS1e'
six runs, sent him to the showers

The Auto-Lite Unit team gain
ed another notch closer to the
Spicer outfit as Irwin PERI gave
the strong Willys-Overland bat
terS three hits for an AL, 4 to
2, victory over the Automakers.
PERI aided in the win consider
ably when he drove a home run
with a mate on the base. Eddie
KijoWski, Auto-Lite left fielder,
also got a homer with a team
mate on base. These two homers
accounted for all of the Auto
Lite runs and the game.
Two home runs featured the
Acklin-Stamping, IL to 10 win
over the Colonial Hardware =
Bob Farmer, Acklin pitcher
slammed a homer in the fifth
inning with two Acklinites on
the bases. George Maxon, left
fielder, also hit for the circuit
with a brother Acklinite on base.
Steve Kaifas, star pitcher for
the hapless Colonials, has been
Ill and his services have been
missed by the Hardwaremen.
His teammates depended largely
on his pitching ability, of which
Steve has plenty, but due to his
illness, the team has faltered
somewhat.
In the American Division of
the Local IL League, the biggest
upset came, Tuesday night at
CYO Field, when the Toledo In
dustrial Rubber lads gave the
American Brakes Shoes theirs
first setback of this season, by.
a z to 6 margin.
1t is difficult TO say just where
the greatest amount of credit
for the victory should go, as the
entire. Tirco team played an
inspired, heads-up ball game. It
was a plain case of the under
dog team taking advantage of
every break to make it pay off.
The Toledo Industrial Rubber
CTirco) lads really deserve a
great deal of praise for the
wonderful job which they did
against the Division leaders,
American Brake Shoe.
The CLIO. Club, unsuccessful
in their last three attempts, fin
ally got on the winning side as
they trounced a classy National
Supply outfit, IA to 8. Chuck
Coder again did a fine job on
the mound for the Clubmen, also
getting home run with one on
base to add to the score.
Player-manager Dick Davis
got timely single in the last
inning to send two runs across
the plate to gain win for his
Plaskon Unit team over Indus
trial Heat Treat, by the close
score of to 2. With two out in
the seventh inning, and his team
trailing, 2 to l, Davis got hold
of one with two mates on bases
enabling both to score to give a

if you paint any surface that is
not free from dirt, dust, grease,
rust, wax and paint flakes. A
good quality paint remover,
scraping, sanding or wire-brush-
ing removes old "bubbly" paint.
Then wash the surface clean with
turpentine.
Pause before painting. You'll have
fewer cleanup problems If you
believe in an "ounce of preven-
ton" Before painting, spread
newspapers over fiat surfaces that
need protecting. If it's windows
or trim you're painting, make a
guard Of stiff cardboard which
you can press tightly against the
surface to be painted, protecting
the rest from splatters.
Another trick that professional
painters find handy is to rub baby
oil thoroughly into their hands.
Put on before the painting pro-
ject, baby oil foils the paint and
makes the hand cleanup job no
problem at all.
All prin,ed to paint. Then, get
started, remembering that two
thin coats are better than one
thick coat Of paint. Note, too, that
each coat should be allowed to dry
thoroughly before the next one 10
applied. Otherwise, "alligatoring"
may appear.

II dry sunny weather tempts
you to paint windows, screens,
porch furniture or camping equip
ment like boats or docks, here are
some painting pointers to make
your job 60 more smoothly.
Your painting project can be
an easier, faster, more satisfac-
tory job, according to Betty Wood,
decorating consultant for the
Sherwin-W Williams Company, If
you:
Select the right paint. There's
paint for every purpose, and which
kind you use depends upon what
you want the paint to do, whether
to be glossy for scrubability, fiat
for little light reflection, or to
hide an undercoat, protect, deco.
rate or seal. Let your paint dealer
tell you about the newest kinds of
paints developed for specific pur-
poses.
Get the proper brush. Sure, you
can slap on paint with any brush,
but really good job calls for the
proper brush for an easier,
smoother, faster, application. Best
size brushes include a three-to-
four-inch for large surfaces, a
two-inch for general surfaces, and
an inch-and-a-half for fine detail
and trim.
Make a fresh start. You spell
doom to your decorating success
