BROOKLANDERS
TIE HOLY CROSS
Weak Hitting Cause Catho.
lie u.-Holy Cross Game
to Go Extra Periods.

Holy Cross hooked up with Cath
olic University in its annual ball
game yesterday on the Brookland
grounds. which went into extra inn
ings when after struggling through
IS innings the umpire called OF hos
tilities with the count two all.
Catholic University should have
been the winner in the regulation
game but for an unexpected hit
which cropped up at the wrong
time, from the bat OF Ralph Doyle,
the second sacker of the visitors,
sent the game into the extra period.
Both teams had chances to score
runs in the thirteenth and four
teenth innings, but the necessary
hit was not in evidence.
Holy Cross went out and gathered
a run in the very first inning. After
two were down, DAILY hit for a sim
gle and Bowen scored him with a
three base crash down the right
field foul line but was left on third
himself. as no one could drive him
home. The visitors threatened to
score in the fifth, sixth and eighth.
but it was not until the ninth that
they tied up the count.
In the visitors half OF the ninth
after one was down, Maloney
singled to left and went all the
way around to third on Doyle's hit
to right which took a bad hop just
before it reached Roach, enabling
the second sacker to reach second
and on a short pass ball Maloney
crossed the plate with the last run
of the game.
For four innings the Brooklanders
breezed along without a hit but op-
ened up on GIL in the fifth with two
hits and a sacrifice which scored the
first run. also tieing the count Again
in the sixth Duffy led of with a
single to left. This one-run margin
looked enough tobeat Holy Cross but
they were not to be robbed of victory
in such an easy manner and tied up
the score as above mentioned.
Holy Cross came here after a sue
cessful trip through the South, where
they played four games and won them
all but they could not take the scalp
Of their rivals in this encounter so
were content to get a draw.
Some fast fielding by both teams
helped their respective pitchers dur
ing the latter part Of the contest. Gill,
who did the hurting, was a little
steadier than Kendgick and kept his
hits well scattered throughout the
game. Kendrick was a bit wild, walk
ing three men but they never reached
the plate.
First baseman Maioney Of Holy
Cross had twenty-five chances which
he accepted without an error while
Long, of c. u. accepted twenty-one.
Pat Rooney and Duffy of Holy Cross
ran a race to see which should ham
die the most assists. each having nine.

The Old Fox Is one pilot in the
American League who does not have
to worry over the pitching question.
He has made il known time and again
that he intends to use johnson, Ayers,
Hafper and Shaw in most Of the
games this season, but whenever one
of this big quartet falters he has an
array of i've youngsters to fall back
ON, that should be equal to the oc-
casion.
George Dumont, MoIiie Craft and
Earl Yingling have each seen some
major league service. and it is from
lhis trio that the Old Fox expects to
pick a hurler to act along with the
-FOUR veterans. Al Waldbauer and
ADRIAN Lynch, to date, have shown
everything that any manager could
ask and even Grifr himself figures
that one of them may come through
as a reliable mainstay.
DumOnt this spring is attempting
TO perfect the so-termed shine
ball" The Fargo Express last sea-
son used this optical illusion in an
effective manner. and as this form
Of delivery is something of a hobby
with Manager Griffith this spring.
Dumont has been ordered to get it
down perfect. Al Waldbauer is an
other one of the whizz-bang artists
who is trying out this moisted fling.
This Richmond semi pro looks bet
ter than any OF the moundsmen, as
he shows a marked improvement at
each drill. 1t is the consensus of
opinion among the veterans of the
squad that Griff has sure picked up
a diamond in the rough in this
youngster.
YinEling has always carried the
reputation of being one Of the best
curve Ddll plLCneTS IndI ever "OEheNl
in the National League and Mana
ger Griffith is already figuring on
using him as the understudy for
Harry Harper.
With his pitching question praC-
tically settled the Old Fox is giving
most Of his attention to his regulars
of the infeld and outfield. The mid
get inner works is one of the best
fielding and speediest infields in the
younger circuit. GritT is well pleased
with the stick work Of this quartet
to date, but has quite a task in
front of him on making up his mind
just how to figure out the outfield
question.
With the status of Sandy Rice
and June Cass still doubtful, there
remains but two mainstays for the
pasture, these being Bert Shotton
and Clyde Milan. Howard Shanks
and Eddie Charity will in all prob
abilities get the call, providing Rice
is not granted an extension of time
and Cass is turned back to Des
MOines. Merito Acosta, the Cuban
outfielder, will be used in the right
garden against righthand pitching,
while Charity or Shanks will look
out for the fly balls against the left
handlers

EMPLOYMENT OF LABOR
BY THE GOVERN MEMT
SYSTEM EXPLAINED IN LETTER
FROM DIRECTOR GENERAL
OF SERVICE.

The labor employment service that
has just been inaugurated by the gov
eminent is 'one of the most drastic wal
measures that has been adopted, anG
as there appears to be much msunder-
standing and scope, the following let
ter explaining the system has been
sent to the press Of the country by
j. b. Densmore, of the department OF
labor, director general of the United
States employment service:
We beg to direct your attention to
the plans of the U. S. employment
service, and to the great effect which
this program will have upon the indus
trial life of the nation.
On August l, the supplying of war
industries with common labor will be
centralized in the U. S. employment
service of the department of labor, and
lall independent recruiting of common
labor by manufacturers having a pay
rool of more than 100 men will be d.
verified to the U. S. employment SER
vice. This is in accordance with the
decision of the war labor policies
board and approved by the president
on June II. (The war labor policies
board is composed of representatives
of the war, navy, and agricultural de-
partments, the shipping board and the
emergency fleet corporation, the war
industries board, and the food, fuel,
and railroad administrations. It's
chairman is Felix Frankfurter, assist
ant to the secretary of labor.)
The above action was found neces-
sary to overcome a perilous shortage
of unsklled labor in war industries
This shortage was aggravated by an
almost universal practice of labor
stealing and poaching.
While the restrictions against the
private employment of labor apply
only to common labor at the present
time, these restrictions will, as soon
as possible, be extended to include
cruiting of skilled labor for war pro-
duction will be subject to federal reg
ulations now being prepared.
This drastic change in the nations
labor program has been found neces-
sary in order to protect the employer
and the employed, to conserve the
labor supply of the communities and
to cut down unnecessary and expen-
sive labor turn -over (Which, in some
cases, is as high as 100 per cent a wee)
and to increase the production of es-
sentials.
While non essential industries will
be drawn upon to supply the neces-
sary labor for war work, the with
drawal will be conducted on an equit
able. basis in order to protect the in
dividual employer as much as possible.
Under the operating methods adopt
ed, the country has been divided into
thirteen federal districts, each district
in charge Of a superintendent of the
U. S. employment service The states
within each district are in turn in
charge of state director, who has full
control of the service within his state.
In each community there is being
formed local community labor board,
consisting of a representative of the
U. S. employment service, a represen-
tative of employers and a representa-
tive of the employed. This board will
