American Brake Shoe Tops SoftbaHLeague
Team Maintains
Perfect Record

Holding a perfect record OF
six victories and no defeats,
the American Brake Shoe
Unit in the National Division
of the Local IL Softball
League, leads both the American
and National Divisions.
The East Side lads have come
through the first round OF
League play with a 1000 aver
age, defeating all other mem
bers of the National Division.
In the American Division OF
the League, the Spicer Unit still
clings to first place with five
wins and only one loss. Close on
the heels of Spicer are the Auto
Lite Unit and the Willys-Over-
land, with four wins and two
losses each.
Three teams, the National
Supply, Plaskon Unit, and The
CLIO. Club are tied for second
place in the National Division.
The three teams have a record
of four victories and two re-
verses, to date.
Games Tuesday night, in the
National Division, saw the Am
erican Brake Shoes take the
measure of the Airway Elec-
tries by the score of Ia to 3.
Out in front in the seventh in
ming, the Brake Shoes let up and
the Airway batters made a rally
which netted five runs, but not
enough TO take the game.
Dick Davis, player-manager
of the Plaskon Unit team, help
ed bring a last inning victory to
his team as he got three hits and
brought in 5 runs to help the
Plaskonites defeat the Toledo
Industrial Rubber by the score
of 8 to 4.
An upset was recorded by the
Industrial Heat Treat as man
ager Steve Beres drove a mighty
home run with two teammates
on base TO help in the 10 to 5
defeat of the strong National
Supply outfit.
Chuck Coder, pitching for The
CLIO. Club, was too strong for
the Peerless Moulded Plastics as
he struck out fifteen enemy bat
ters. Coder also contributed a
home run with bases loaded and
his teammate, Leo Manera also
hit a homer with two on to
complete the IL to 4 win.
In the American Division of
the League the Willys-Overland
eked out a slim win over the Lo-
cal % outfit by staging a sew
enth- inning rally to score the
run for the 6 to 5 vic
tory. Mike Donofrio drove a
single in the last inning and ad-
to third base. Then, with
two out in the ninth, a passed
ball enabled the fast W-O run
ner to cross the plate with the
run.
Doehler-Jarvis smacked out
win over the strong To-
Iedo Scales by taking 6 to 2
victory Ed Hoffman smacked a
homer for his Acklin Stamping
team, scoring four runs, but his
effort was not enough to turn
he tide of the Auto-Lite Unit,
IL to 4, victory. Rol Henning
was the big gun for Auto-Lite
as he got home run and two
.ripleS to account for eight runs.
Ihet Punski, another powerful
AL batter, also contributed a
homer with two mates on the
)ases.

ties went on to an easy victory
