say, Of the steel company, which is

break it up to 90 into anything like

Charles Stelzle here to talk to the men.
Now, you know this is u nonunion mill.
The company would not tolerate union
ism. Steizle always talks to working
men about lettering their conditions
and usually mentions unionism. Of
course no sane man can deny that there
is need here of an agency that would
better the conditions of the men, but
you see how Steizle's talk might create
unrest 1t would not do. We had to
decide against it. Things are rotten
here, all right, but the work of the

We aim to get good, clean young men
and to help them to stay clean. That
is our work. These reform movements

fact is that whereas in other sea-
sons every man who witnessed
eight ball games during the year
picked all Southern teams, this
years all Southern selections have
been as rare as the honest man, the
dinosaurs and the dido.
If the Southern catchers were
gone through with a fine tooth
comb. nothing would be harvested
that looks like a real ball player.
The Barons probably will win the
pennant and they will do it with
two catchers that could never have
stuck through the season with a
tail-end club in years gone by.
And they are a pretty fair critic
rian of the backstopping strength
of the league.

Young Clarence Smith, the pop

oped this year, may come around in

He'll go back to bed in a Glass "a"

are engaged in their three
cornered joint debate as to the rel
atfve strength of the Southern club
that probably will win the title in
1912 and the teams that were
awarded pennants in 1910. 1907 and
a few other years ages and ages
ago, the fact stands out in favor of
the contention Of Messrs. Frank
and Smith that not one single star
is being sent to the major leagues
from Dixie this season.
In fact. of the eight or ten dozen
ball players who have worn South
ern league uniforms this season,
there is hardly one that looks good
to become even a lesser luminary
in the major league armament.
There is hardly one that has looked
better than his fellows of this
