GLazner Best Walk CT in
 Pretty Duel
By MARVIN MCCARTHY

New Orleans, La., Sept 5.-| (Special) Whitey Glazner pitched one of the best games of his career here this after noon, holding the Pelicans completely at his mercy let ting them down with two meas ly scratch hits. Whitey was in superb form during the first five innings only fifteen men faced him. Two were walked but were headed off at second on an attempted steal and a double play, in the sixth in- ming the first hit was off of Whitey. Demoe hit a pesky grounder to second base, which Stewart was able to reach a little too late. Demoe was safe and was credited with a single. In the ninth in- ming, Sewell hit dirve to right. Harrison ran in on the ball., made dive an dtrapped the pellet, missing the catch by a matter of few inches only.
 This constituted the attack in full of the Pels, only three other men reaching base, two of them being walked and caught at second, as before explained. Glazner threw wild to second trying to head off Demoe on Allen attempted sacrifice, letting Allen go safe. Only two men, De- moe and Sewell, reached second, the first on Glazner's error and the second on Gill berts nfield out in the ninth inning.
 The support behind Whitey was ex- cellent. Only one error. and that by Glazner himself. made by the Barons. Time and again Baron fielders accepted difficult chances, making the putout without falter.
 CROWDS ASK FOR NO-HIT GAME upon the field and requested that off cal Scorer Cliff Abbo give Stewart and Hairston errors, thus making Whitey s victory over Walker a no-hit affair, but Abbo stuck to his principles and refused to change his decisions.
 Both chances were difficult ones and under ordinary conditions would be scored hits, but in such cases as today it would have been possible to stretch a point and give errors, and then not greatly deviate from the scoring rules.
 Had the writer been official scorer of todays game more than likely he would have given errors and Whtey would have been credited with no-hit game As it was, the judgment of the New Or

 By winning today's game the Barons made it two straight over the Pelicans thus cutting down the lead of the New Orleans team over the Baron to half a game. Little Rock won today, thus tying with the leaders for the top.
 The Barons have the supreme chance to go out in front tomorrow, as a dou- ble-header is scheduled with the Peli. cans. By winning both, the Barons will go ahead of the Pels and at least tie with the Travellers If Little Rock loses and the Barons win, then Moley's men will be in the lead.
 To get back to the game. It was exciting, hard-fought pitchers battle the first seven innings. Walker was hit often before the eighth, and time and again the Barons had chances to score. Twice umpires decisions and three times good support and tight pitching saved the Pels during the first seven innings
 The Barons had Stewart on third and Barnhart on first in the first inning, with two out, when Stewart was caught off third when Deberry faked a throw to second to catch Barnhart.
 In the fifth inning Ellis slamped 2 two-bagger off Demoe's shoulder, going to third Hairston's infield out. Gooch drove one at Walker which the latter stopped picked up and threw home to catch Ellis. Al beat the throw the pro- verbal mile, but Umpire Johnson saw fit to call him out, thus preventing q Baron tally. Again in the seventh John son exercised his authority to make or ruin good play Griffith singled and was sacrificed by Ellis Gooch sent a peach of a single past third, and Grif- filth tore for home from second. Bert seemed to beat Aliens peg easily, but Johnson called him out, thus depriving the Barons of tally for the second time. Gooch argued and was put out of the game, later being busted from the park when protests continued to come from the Baron bench. Even the Pelican fans hooted and jeered Johnson for these two decisions, The general opinion of all was that the decisions bum

Faulty Supervision Of Labor Is
Cause Of General Denorah.

WASHINGTON, July z.-Faulty SUI
rervision Of labor and not the failure
of railroad employees to work is a
contributing cause of the general de-
moralized condition of the railways,
illustrated in the freight congestion.
according to a representative OF the
interstate commerce commission, who
is directing freight movements
through the nations capital. .
II have found,'' said this official;
that there has been an. inclination
on the part of everybody to. blame
labor for freight tie-ups and like con-
ditions OF the railroads. From my
own observation somebody has been
passing the buck to labor in this
cause, as the fault lies not in the un-
willingness Of the men themselves to
work. but in the lack of proper direc-
ton and supervision.
'"rhere is a failure to give explicit
orders for the work to be done and
the men find tasks facing them, but
no directions as to how they must be
solved.
1.-THE conditions. in this city prob
ably: are the same as elsewhere; and
proper direction and supervision for

the object of organized labor should
rot alone be the. securing of higher
wages and shorter hours, but to teach
it's members the Importance of their
duties and Impress upon them the
dignity of honest toll well done: He
always held that no other occupation
placed higher valuation upon sobriety
than that of the railway employe,
where clear brain and steady nerve
were required at all times to protect
the lives Of hundreds of thousands
