Filibuster is Feared

A favorable report by the COM
mittee will mean the ultimate
confirmation of Mr.. Brandeis I'm
less the Republicans, as is feared,
hlibuster against final vote until
adjournment is taken by con-
gress. 1t has been suggested that
the Republicans, fearing the poll
teal consequences of a direct vote
in the senate on the nomination
before election, may attempt to
delay the vote until after the No
vember election by hlibustering.
Indications today were that
senate action on confirming the
nomination of Brandeis to the STU
preme court and George Rublee
as member of the federal trade
commission, would be important
features of the weeks congress
ional program.
A forerunner of the fight on Mr..
Rublee was imminent in the SIN
ate today. The question was whe-
Their the senate would hold an op-
en- instead of secret session to-
morrow when it reconsiders the
vote by which Mr.. Rublee was re-
jected last week.
The motion to reconsider was
made by Senator Hollis, of New
Hampshire, and the proposal to
abandon the practice of executive
session for such action was borne
by resolutions of Senators Keny-
on and LaFollette. Friends of
Mr.. Rublee, with the aid of strong
administration influences, hope to
reverse he action of last week.

TUESDAYS GAME

Much encouraged by the results
Of Mondays game, the Rochelle
club made little journey to our
city Tuesday and lost all their
courage. The catastrophe of last
week was repeated, only this was
worse-or better. Fitzgerald
frailed fifteen for singles and
doubles, and, aided by numerous
errors on the part of the visi-
tors, scored II runs.
Our new pitcher from Douglas
mounted the mound and in the
hrst frame graciuosly gave the
Rochelle rooters their first and
only chance to yell by allowing
two safe bingles, scoring one run.
After this he frightened up and
the Rochelle rooters had to shut
UP. Although good pitchers are
not supposed to be able to hit,
this one raped out three pretty
safeties out of five chances, two
in one inning. Stats Foster of vi
emma and Rochelle lived up to his
reputation, made last week, by
allowing his delivery to be hit far
