WILL DECIDE HOTEL
STRIKE QUESTION
Local Employees Plan Mass Meet
ing to Settle Conditions
Tonight.

A mass meeting OF hotel employees of
the city will be held tonight at mid
night at the old Masonic Temple, at
which. II is said. the question OF u
general walkout will be settled. Wheth-
err a strike will be called depends largely
on the total number Of employees who
can be depended upon to leave their
posts, and the attendance at tonights
meeting Is intended to be an index OF
this strength.
Hotel managers today declared with
conviction that they were confident no
strike would occur. Edward Bloch
linger. the New York organizer for the
International Hotel Workers Union,
urged a strike at the meeting OF the
employees held last night.
The situation today closely resembles
that OF last June, when predictions Of
a strike were freely made, although
none was called. and the movement
died out until recently, when Bloch
linger came here and began enlistlng
all kinds of hotel employees in the inter-
national organization.

Neal Ball, Maps Great Utility Player.

Neal Ball stands in a rather pecu-
liar position on the Cleveland club.
No one reckons that he has chance
to become a regular in the immediate
future. The only thing that may bring
that title to him is an injury to Nap
Lajoie or shift of Larry from second
to first.
But every one reckons Neal a regu-
lar member of the club just as they
do Larry, Gregg and Olson.
Neal isn't fighting for a job. He is
star utility man. Before the gong
sounds announcing the opening Of the
campaign he can rest assured that
bis name will remain on the roster, no
matter who else DEPARTS
1t is doubtful if there has ever been
a parallel to his case in the history
