Triple Tie in the Softball League (By Staff Reporter) With every team in the softball league having played one game the Foundry, Motors and Front street are tied for first position with one win each. Whiz, High School and Goodyear have each lost one. As this is the standing after the first games by each team, much cannot be said as to the possibilities of any one team. Every team has showed signs of lack of practice escpecially in the batting. Field- ing has not been up to the mark of last year's games either. As the schedule goes on the teams will improve along each line. The turnout of supporters so far has been encouraging to the league. The money gained by the silver collections at each game is being put to a good advantage by the committee in buying balls and other necessary equipment for the league. The teams are all hot- foot out for the championship and it will be a good and fast race for the glory.
