Myers let the Griffmen down with
four hits. one OF which was a homer
from Turney BARRIERS bat, scoring the
visitors two taliies in the second. Con-
MES young pitcher proved very much

make no protest against their condi-

a year from now with the prepared
ness policy they must be lined up
with guns thrust in their hands to
fight for their masters.
"You workers who think you are
educated are only educated that you
may read what your masters put in
the newspapers for you to read" he
said. 'You run your fingers under
their printed lies as needle runs on
the record of a graphaphone."
William Thurston Brown declared
he believed the unemployed problem
could only be solved when workers
met together and studied sociology
in order to understand conditions
which they must battle and that in
dustrial workers of world must unite
to gain possession of things upon
which they depend for a living and
change the system so that industry is
