Meyers and Miller,, were again laying the wood on the ball in a 19-hit attack. Meyers' homer and Miller's double were the only extra-base hits for the winners. Miller allowed only two hits in six innings before turning the job over to Kreutzer. Kreutzer finished the job IS I is ship shape, striking out tire side ia Test Pitching Strength It can be quickly seen that either the Indians or Algonquin, after battling each other on Sunday, may find themselves worrying about pitching strength to face the hard-hitting Tigers the following day. It was generally expected that Johnsburg would be playing Algonquin next Sunday, .in the only league game, to determine the final outcome of the standings for the season. However, it was decided to stage the play-, offs at this time. From a glance at the season rec-" ords of the teams, it could easily be expected that Woodstock and Johnsburg might meet in the finals of the play-off tournament. Each team has lost only one game throughout the season. But, what about the Shamrocks ? They battled Woodstock into the ninth inning two weeks ago, losing by one run as the Alemiters squeezed a run across. Don't <:ount the Shamrocks out. Then, we have the Indians and Algonquin. Both teams have shown class. Johnsburg won't take either team too lightly in their plans. So ... a big time is planned for all and the boys are hoping to see a large turn-out to watch them battle for supremacy. First Division Schedule Svnday ... Johnsburg, bye. 1.

"""N "Likewise," the Colonel continued, "any mw)^w placed in 1-A (Suspended) because of a remediable defect, will be reclassified." "A new 'List of Defects' will SOOT reach the local boards to assist in the I determination of classification. If a registrant has been rejected because : of a defect appearing on this new list, { he will be placed in IV-F. If the de-! feet is not shown, he will be reclassi-' fled and placed in I-A and will be sub-! ject to army physical examination and I induction, or, if reclassified to IV-E, he will be available for assignment! to a national work camp." | "All local boards will begin the re- j classification process in September," j Colonel Armstrong said, "and will re- ! classify twenty-five, per cent each month until ^nished."

S. Treasury department, War Savings Division. The company, which is engaged one hundred per cent in war production and is one of the largest manufacturers of shell fuses, has been active in support of the war bond program since its inception. The payroll allotment plan was1 first "tried out" by the Treasury department at the Chicago plant of Stewart-Warner corporation. Five daysd after the plan was inaugurated and ; rthe company had set up a special bookkeeping procedure to record pur- | chases, more than ninety-six per cent] of the personnel had voluntarily made allotments.
