the Actives are tied for first in
the Industrial race with the Jay
cees right behind them, having
played one less game. The Elks
and Sterling are tied up for the
Federal honors, but the showdown
will come Wednesday night when
the two clubs meet, should they
both get through Monday games
as expected.
In event of a tie finish for the
second half crowns in either of
these two loops the tie would be
played off on Wednesday night,
making a douoieneader neces
sary for those clubs tied. Such is
unlikely, but due to the state rul
ing that all districts entries must
be decided by August 17 time
does not permit anything else,
On Tuesday, August 10 the
winners of the Federal and In

right to enter the final round.
Then on Wednesday, August 11
the final playoffs start. The sec

.357 unless Don Kimball, hitting
.385, has sufficiently recovered
from the mumps to return to the
lineup. Grover Kelsay is hitting
