A claims that in baseball a
pitcher having pitched six innings
gets the credit for winning If his
team wins and was ahead when he
was relieved. and also is credited with
the loss OF the game if his team loses
and was behind when ne was relieved.
B claims the pitcher relieved has
nothing more to do with the game.
and that the pitcher relieving him
gets the credit either way the game
goes. A. G.
4 is right. The only way BIS nrgu-
ment would carry would be in the
event score was tied when second

Charles Francis, an employing printer.
said he believed that woman's wage should
be treated on the same basis as the mans
wage, and that he was opposed to a fixed
minimum unless the state was prepared to
establish fixed minimum for the em-
ployer's finished product.
Leslie Grafton. a representative of II.
Altman & Co. told the commission that
he was opposed to legal minimum. lie
said a girl could not live as she should
on 50 a, week, and that his firm. for the
sake of efficiency. paid sig. The minimum
wage law, Mr.. Grafton said. would drive
women and girls from many places which
require no great amount OF ability or ex-
pcrience. hut which would be filled by
more efficient workers IL the employers
were forced TO pay "A higher minimum.
Benedict J. Greenhut of tho j. g. Green
hut Company. said that while there was
no written agreement. many OF the stores
had established a minimum wage of 50
for all who are not minors. This. he said
was to increase the efficiency OF the work
