Governor Has Difficulty.

The governor had some difficulty in
getting definite answers from the mine
men as to whether they favored labor
organizations as such. but found 1t al
most impossible to get them away from
the idea that their attitude toward the
Westerern Federation was not involved
in the question.
One man declined to state his opinion
and others said they had no authority
to speak for their companies. Finally
F. w. Denton of the Copper Range Con-
solidated, Supt- John Knox Of the
Calumet and Hecla, Manager Dengler
of the Mohawk and ]. l. Harris Of the
Hancock said they personally had no OBJ
lection to labor organizations as such.
Again the governor went on record as
favoring collective bargaining for labor.

ward organization in both capital and
labor.

-FOUR FAST BOYS
IN RELAY RACE
Locals viii Compete in
Irish American Meet For
Handsome Trophy
STAR ATTRACTION
OF TRACK EVENTS

The latest entry that has thrown
bomb into the Irish-American meet to
be held on July Is. is the announce
ment that Joe" Weaver, Bob" King,
Norm Eliason and "Pat" Wylie will
form relay team and try to pull
down the handsome trophy offered for
that event
Without doubt a faster combination
could not be picked from the citys
list OF sterling athletes. The former
stars are limbering up now and they
expect to breast the tape first.
King is one of Wilmington's fastest
440 yard men. He was one of the
mainstays of the high school in 1910,
and helped to win many meets for
the school by his success in sprints
In 1911 he entered Wenonah Mill
tary Academy at Wenonah, N. j., and
again met with success on the cinder-
path flying Wenonahs colors.
Kings greatest exhibition was his
mark on Franklin Field in 1911 at the
annual relay races of the University
of Pennsylvania. Roger Daniels. also
Of this city, was the last man touch
ed off for Wenonah, while King was
third. King started off in second po-
sition. five yards behind the first man.
lie kept the same distance until he
reached the stretch. when in a beau
tiful sprint he passed his man and
touched off Daniels with a four yard
lead
Joe Weaver needs no introduction
to the sporting arena Of Wilmington.
This heetfooted cnderpath performer
won more than once for the champion
Norristown High School team. Former
athletes who have competed for the
Cherry and White remember Weaver
/ He holds the Norristown School 100
and 220 yard records. He has decide
to become a member of fast relay
team and his competitors will have
to pound the dust to pass him.
Pat Wylie, also a former quarter
miller of this city has done honors for
Lehigh. He has not lost bit Of his
old time running form and he will
make a splendid addition TO the team
Norm Eliason will be the anchor
man for the team. The track follow
ers will long remember this sterling
athletes work for the Wilmington
Friends School
Bob King is captain Of the quarte
and the men are out Jogging every
night to get in trim for the 18th, b.
which time, If these former knights
Of the winged foot get back in shape
they will be unbeatable.

STALLINGS TRIES
HARD TO LIFT TEAM
OUT OF LAST place

BOSTON, July George Stallings
is trying with might and main to lift
his Braves out Of the cellar position.
The Big Chief perfected several trades
the past week that are likely to aid
the trailers.
Stallings secured three possibilities
for two men that had been of little
use to him this year Still he did not
gold brick either st. Louis or Phila-
delphia. All three clubs may bene-
fit by the trade, Perdue hadn't been
of much use to the Hub aggregation
this season. He is a lazy. big fellow
and a change of scene may put some
new life into him. When Perdue tries
his level best, there are few better
pitchers to be found.
If Stallings had been able to affect
trade with Doom earlier in the
season he would not likely be occupy
ing his present lowly position. His
bad start was the direct result oil
mediocre play in the outtield Before
the opening of the season Stallings
offered Martin for Beals Becker OF
Deyore. Devore is a shortstop, and a
good one, a commodity in which Doom
was in dire need. Martin had nc
chance of displacing Maranville. Mar

KAVANAUCH Holds
UP IN BIC COMPANY
Former Tri-Stater Makes
Jennings Squad Look
Like Deuce
SHOWS PLENTY OF
PEP ON BASES

When Marty Kavanaugh last sea-
sons best hitter in the Tri-State and
crack infielder broke into the fast
game there we're whisperings. Stars
in the major game looked upon Kaya-
naugh as a tramp. He was stung by
the remarks he heard, but went TO
work to make good, Now he has
many OF the Jennings squad looking
like deuce spot.
Two years ago Kavanaugh was in-
troduced to Joe McGinnity when the
latter was manager Of the Newark
club Kavanaugh tried catching, which
he had been fairly successful in as a
semi-pro He was used in utility roles
and showed well at first base, but
was not strong enough to displace
Harry Swacina, now with the Balti-
more Federal League club.
Last spring the Newark club own
ers decided that Kavanaugh was too
awkward in the field to make his nat
ural batting ability of worth to
class AA minor league team, so he
was released to York, in the Tri-State
League.
Kavanaugh's declaration at this
/ time shows the kind of an athlete he
| is.
You fellows think I'm tramp, but
I'll show some of you up yet" kava-
naugh was used at first and second
bases and in the outfield. too, with
York, and when he was drafted by the
Tigers it had been intended to use
him on first or in the outfield dur
ing the spring training trip. Paddy
Baumann, regular second haseman Of
the Tigers, was injured while in the
South and Kavanaugh was called
upon. He began to hit, field and
show pep in large quantities, with
the result that he has remained at
second and is one of the most active
aids on the coaching lines. Baumann
was sent to the Tigers farm at Prov
ldence. Hugh Jennings considers
kayanaugh the richest prize he has
gathered in recent seasons. The cost
was $1,000.
The playing Of Marty Kavanaugh at
second base continues TO be the sen.
sation Of the Tigers work. and now
that the team is winning. Ty Cobb
has begun to bat fiendishly hard and
cut up on the base paths with all his
old-time dash and seeming disregard
Tor set rules of progress.
