 JUNEAU, June 3.-(Special to The Citizen)-Fifteen precincts in the first division give Grigsby total of 764 votes and Jones 636 This in- cludes the Ketchikan vote. SUMMARY Only a small part of the returns have been received here up to the present time, but these include all of the heaviest voting precincts ex- cept Nome and Anchorage. The to. tals shown by the figures received by The Citizen are Grigsby 1241; Jones 780; Wickersham '. It is practically certain that Jones will not be able to wipe out the lead Grigsby already has, and it is more than possible that the lead may be materially increased by later returns.

PLAY BALL! By Hattie N. D'Orsay

 live read so much in magazines It's always on the screen
 How when a woman lands up North The men are awful keen" And all the folks who leave these parts Just love to keep it going. That "every time a skirts in sight There's surely something doing!" They make our men ride over banks, And ford or swim in flood, ITO shoot and slash. while dressed to kill.- On wonder moon there's blood! II wonder where they get that stuff About our men going crazy
 Each time they slant petticoat They're anything but lazy? I've lived "out west" also up north. Read books and gone to movies But all the living men I've met Are different sort of oovies. Don't think they fall for any girl No matter what's her age, There's places for that slushy stuff In printed books. or stage. But all I've known. outside of that Have travelled far from home. They've learned from grave export. ence The brand to let alone.
 They just stand back-and wait awhile They give new girls free rope To hang themselves. if that's their choice.
 They're heavy on that dope. If she makes good. she dresses neat And throws no lariat. But cooks and washes, bakes and scrubs. That girl might land one yet!
 But they're some foxy. wary birds. Are never lured by salt. lYe magazines. and movie screens
 Iris time you called halt! l
 Your type of man Is long extinct If he did live ct all?
 It surely was not West or North, So change that dope-PLAY BALL! ------ D-----

schedule Saturday by quitting at noon
they reported to work today in Brook
Ign.
Employers declared the men had
automatically resigned" by their ac-
ton Saturday and annuonced all
strikers would be paid off this after
noon.
The trouble arose when the ship
yard workers demanded the 44-hour
working week with Saturday after
noon off. Their demands refused by
shipyard owners, the men declared a
strike for every Saturday afternoon.
Owners announce they are filling
vacant places with other workmen.
The unions started picketing today
and called meeting to decide further
action against strike breakers.

COMPERS INTO IT
General Sympathetic Strike in
Boston Is in Balance.
A. F. of L. Chief Will Take Per-
sOnaI Charge, Is Report.

Boston. Mass. Sept 15.-while
unions turnout the city were voting
today on the question OF a general
strike in sympathy with the striking
policemen, prominent labor leaders
had a conference with Police Com
missioner Curtis. in which the situa-
ton was discussed.
The labor leaders present were
John f. McInnes. president of the Po-
licemen's union; Guy Oyster, personal
representative of Samuel Gompers; NJ.
J. O'DonneIl, of the Central Labor
union; Frank NJ. Mccarthy. of the
American Federation of Labor, and
Martin T. Joyce.
After being closeted with the COM
missioner for half an hour, the labor
men declared they had no statement
to make. Commissioner Curtis like
wise declined to talk.
That Curtis reiterated to the labor
men his refusal to reinstate any of the
police who went on strike was as
sumed in view of the fact that Curtis
announced that twenty candidates for
places on the new police force were
ready to be. sworn in. The majority of
the applicants are war veterans, it was
stated.
The conference between Curtis and
the labor leaders today was believed
to mark the end of negotiations be-
tween the authorities and the labor
leaders. inasmuch as both Governor
Coolidge and Commissioner Curtis
have stated that the strikers will not
be reinstated and that further discus
sion would be futile.
The unions now voting on the SYM
pathetic strike question are doing so
at the request of the Central Labor
union. While there is much talk of
a general strike, the serious POSSIBLE
tiles of which are fully realized by the
authorities, the belief was strong today
that such action will not be taken.
Boston, Sept. 15.-It was reported
in labor circles here today that Sam
uel Gompers. president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. will take
personal charge of the strike of mem
bers of the Boston policemens union.
This report is based. it was said. on
the conference Gompers held with
Frank H. Mccarthy, representative of
the American Federation of Labor in
New York yesterday.
Meetings of scores OF unions turnout
the city were held yesterday and it
was said the unions voted on the SYM
pathetic strike resolution of the Bos-
ton Central Labor union.
1t was impossible today, however, to
learn the result of the voting. Ballots
were sent to the Central Labor union
headquarters for tabulation.
The Bartenders' union adopted a
resolution criticising Governor Cool
idge Mayor Peters and Police Com
missioner Curtis for their stand in the
present police crisis. 1t was also voted
to pledge moral and financial aid to
the policemen's union.
