SOCIALISTS WRESTLE
WITH farmer AND
LABOR AFFILIATION
1Rv Associated Pross.) }

CLEVELAND, May 1.-The National
Socialist party convention was pre-
pared today to again wrestle with the
question of affiliation with labor and
farmer organizations for future pohti-
cal activity after failing yesterday TO
reach a decision.
The convention has before 1t the
agenda proposal to limit its affillatlon
to the sending of delegates to the next
convention to be called by the confer
ence for progressive political action,
such delegates merely to act as oD-
servers. It also is considering coun-
ter-proposal made by Morris Hlllqult
of New York, that would not only per-
nit. but encourage direct affiliation
by state socialist organizations with
labor and farmer organizations. safe
guarded. as contended by Mr.. Hillqult
and its friends. to insure preservation
of the party's identity.
Indications early today were that
the agenda proposal might win over
the Hillquit proposition, many dele
gates expressing themselves yesterday
in opposition to direct affiliation al
this time because the labor unions
wN-e not yet ready for it and because
it might mean destruction of the So
cialist party's identity. Victor l.. Ber-
ger of Milwaukee, though expressing
doubt as to benefits being derived
from direct affiliation, said he was
willing to try anything once"
After disposing of the question OF
labor party affiliation, the convention
will have before it questions of party
dues and finances, initiation fees and
campaign funds.

WASHINGTON, May Increased

today by the commerce department
From the figures available in re-

is clear that fundamental conditions
are much better and there is every
reason to expect business to improve

March showed large increase over re-
cent months, exports of cotton cloth in

ary, and were the largest for several
months, while, in agreement with
other phases of the iron and steel in

ming, as we'll the county treasurers

tions of dilatory taxpayers. The city
treasurer receives taxes for city i'm
provements. His office is located in
the city hall.
Monday was the last day to pay
taxes at the county treasurer's office
and anyone who visited the court
house could tell the fact. A string OF
people extending across the entire
building evidenced the fact that some
taxpayers were not anxious to pay the
10 per cent penalty which will be add
ed after this date.
approximately 800 letters are on file
in the office, containing checks for
taxes by out of town taxpayers. The
treasurer has had no opportunity TO
enter these amounts on the books.

Navy Applications
For the Army Came
Exceed Allotment

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Nov. Sit was
stated by the athletic committee at the
Naval Academy to-day that the appli-
cation for tickets for the Army-N Navy
football game at Philadelphia exceeded
the Navy's allotment by many thou
sands and that there was no use in
making any further applications.
The last scrimmage in preparation
for the st, Xavier game was held this
afternoon, and the work was defensive
most of the time. The varsity was NOT
particularly strong on this line, and
Squad B took the ball on the varsity
5-yard line and drove it across ON q
number of occasions. Harvey and Hirst
did good work in the second teams
backaeld.
Carney. the big left guard who has
been resting, was in the scrimmage
for time and was succeeded by Herli-
ny. Levinsky was at right guard in
Walkers place, and the other regular
linemen were in their positions. In the
haekfeld, in addition to Conroy and
Mckee, both regulars, o'Regan and
Hamilton, second string backs, were
used.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-10


Some seasons back Vanderbilt had a
formation in which the ball was passed
from the end of the line, as is the case
with the Centre shift. There weren't
he circus trimmings to that one, how
ever, that adorn the Kentucky capers
as exploited by Moran and his Colo
nels. Six men of the line would shift
over, leaving q considerable gap be-
tween them and the man who passed
the ball, usually the center.
The latter fipped it diagonally back
to a man behind the line, who took it
cn the run and thsn forward passed it
to the man who put the ball In play.
III those days pass had to be made
five yards laterally from where it was
put in play, and these yards were pro-
vided for by the passer being fully
that distance from the rest of the line
when he snapped the bali. He then
hiked down the field and became the
receiver.
Georgia University had shift in
consisting Of the quarterback exclaim-
ing: "Over Luke!" cover Toni"
Cover Zeke!" to various linemen, and
then he'd say 1t oil over again and they
would wheel back to their original
positions. All of which had for one of
its objects to upset the mental grasp
Of the enemy.
Any team Gil Dobe coaches is we'll
worth seeing, for there's lots of action
in offense with a Dobie team. Last
year he had the Cornell team using an
interference for its backs which was
ference, which included the guards
from in the line. He has been too
busy this year coaching green guards
to get as far as assigning them to the
extra duty, but it's likely to be seen
against Penn on Thanksgiving, and
may be seen against Dartmouth at
the Polo Grounds tomorrow. The Car
Isle Indians used to make beautiful
use of this interference. It was a fa-
verite device of Pop Warmers, who, by
and large, knows as much about Of
Tense as anybody. Pop ia taking his
Pitt team to Philadelphia tomorrow
to show that what Alabama can do the
Panthers are not incapable of.
In MI. Sprackling's interesting story
in "The Boston Herald" of the Yale
Brown game occurred this sentence, as
! recall it: "Neidlinger, for Yale,
trimmed Brown"
Dld Neidilngef all by himself keep
Brown from scoring? Did ne do
Wight's fine kicking and the passing
for that kicking, and did he do all
the protecting of himself while receiv-
ing forward passes and running with
them? Did he throw them as we'll as
catch them? Did he block the Brown
punt? Did he block and break through
and make holes and do all the tackling
behind the line? Looks as though
everybody on the Yale team, Neidlinger
and all the others, was entitled to a
minute portion Of credit.
Columbia can save the season yet.
