In 1936 and 1937 he captained the Red Wings to victory in the Stanley Cup series, hockey’s World Series, the first American team to gain such twice-in-a-row distinction. In 1939 Lewis was named manager of the new Indianapolis club and his reputation as an intelligent and versatile player has carried through to the pilot’s post. Last winter the Capitals lost a heartbreaking titular playoff to the Providence Reds. Although Herbie has been spending most of his time on the manager’s perch this season, he has promised to sharpen his skates and wield the stick again in what may be his “farewell to hockey” on "Herbie Lewis Night.”

The American Telephone anfi Telegraph Company, of New York, of which President Theo. N. Vail and Vlce-Presideht and General Manager Ed. J. Hall, Jr., are the energetic and far-seeing executives, is to be congratulated on the successful opening up to telephone service of this vast and wealthy territory.

Mann, but they left him S4O poorer and a good deal wiser. , A woman appeared at Mann’s home and said she wanted to buy the house. A short time later, a man called and told Mann a woman interested in buying the home had engaged him to inspect it for termites. After a half hour spent beneath the house, the man crawled out and demanded S4O for exterminating a “nest of termites.” Mann paid him the S4O.
