PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 2.--Unless
signs are deceiving. the radical il
to have little voice In shaping legis-
lation during the forty-third an
nual session OF the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor.
Delegates today pointed to the
following developments which they
said charted the path the Fedora
ton would lead:
1.-The ultimatum served on the
Seattle Central Labor Council.

ordination, that unless It recognizes
and maintains at all times supreme
authority of national and interna-
tiona1 unions on matters OF juris-

May Gust Foster.
2-The expected move by the
Garments union to find a way Of
expelling William Zane Foster,
radical leader, from the carmen's
union on the ground that he has
caused the impression to go out
that the organization IL "red" or
radical in its tendencies.
3-The unequivocal flaying of all
brands of radicalism within the
Federation by Samuel Gompers,
president.
Delegates poiTpting to these mile
stones of conservatism did not deny
that plenty of clashes would take
place on the convention floor over
disputed matters. None could or
would say, for instance, just what
action the Seattle delegates would
take on the thirty-day ultimatum
served upon them to recant or Cor
felt their charter.
Members of the Seattle council
who testified at the executive coun.
Gil hearing expected to review the
executive findings in their case and
issue a statement to the press The

The report of the committee on
education, headed by William Green,
secretary-treasurer of the miners
union, is awaited with particular IN

education charged in its report that
American public school education

Wilson and Greb
Both Fit for
Title Clash TONIGHT

New York, Aug. 30.-Championship
boxing will return to the limelight
tomorrow night at the Polo Grounds
where Harry Greb, the Pittsburgh
WINDMILL will attempt to remove
the worlds middleweight crown from
Johnny Wilson, of Boston, in a 10
round match. 1t will be the first of
three title matches scheduled here
within two weeks, as Johnny Dun
dee and Benny Leonard battle for the
lightweight championship next We'd
nesday while Jack Dempsey and
Luis Firpo clash for heavyweight
laurels the following week.
Both Greb and Wilson were pro-
nounced in excellent condition today
after going through light workouts
Both declared they would be we'll
under the limit of 100 pounds when
they weigh in tomorrow afternoon.
Greb, one of the most rugged men
in the ring. and former American
light heavyweight title holder, has
the backing of numerous ring experts
to capture Wilson's title but the
Boston boxer has restored confidence
among his followers by the excellent
form he has shown in training.
Wilson has risked his title but
few times since he won it from
Mike O'Dowd in 1920. For a good
share of the time he was under Of
fetal ban in several states as re-
suit of his refusal to accept a chal-
lenge Greh filed with the New York
State Athletic Commission. He was
reinstated here recently when the
match with the Pittsburger was ar
ranged.

McAuliffe Lasts
Quick in Workout
with Jack Dempsey

Saratoga Springs, n. Y, Aug. ~
(By A. P.)-Jack McAuliffe, the De.
troit heavyweight. weighing Zoo
pounds and towering six feet. Two
inches, was all but knocked out IN
less than three minutes in his initial
training session with Jack Dempsey
TODAY, After the disastrous first
round. McAuliffe was unable to con-
tinue for the second. He crawled
out of the ring with his right eye
closed and bleeding from a ripped
left ear.
In the three minutes he faced the
heavyweight champion, the hal--
blinded McAuliffe did not land a
solid smash, while Dempsey, with
NcAuliffe groggy and leg-weary'
held his punches in restraint TO-
wards the finish of the round to
avert what appeared to be certain
knockout. McAuliffe walked to his
corner with shaky legs and gamely
offered to continue for the second,
hit Dempsey urged him to quit. He
was so badly handicapped by his
closed eve that he would have been
an easy victim.
While in the rubbing room after
the workout having hot towels ap-
piled to his eye. McAuliffe. who was
knocked out in three rounds by Luls
Angel F'irpo. declared if the giant
Argentine was able to go two rounds
with Dempsey in their heavyweight
championship contest September a.
he would be the most surprised man
in the world.
"Does Dempsey hit as hard as
Firpo?" he was asked.
CAS- hard." McAuliffe exclaimed.
"Why. there's no comparison. Demp-
sew is a. 100 per cent better hitter
with either hand. He's the snap,
pier puncher and can step around
with such speed that Firpo wont
know what it's all about. All Firpo
has is a right hand waliop. Dempsey.
in my opinion, will tear him to pieces
with left hooks"
After stepping a round with Nc
Auliffe, Dempsey went two furious
sessions with Jack Burke, who ex-
changed punch for punch with the
champion. Burke landed right hand
punches effectively, But Dempsey al
ways crowded him. He drove Burke
into the ropes once, mailing him with
a short right that nearly dropped
him.

BANNER DAY IN
LOCAL BASEBALL

Manager Fred Pooler of the Pitts

on the local diamond-one Saturday,
Sept. /. and the other two Monday,
Sept. 8. Labor Day.
Saturday the local nine will meet
the strong Madison A. A, which has
been playing some fast and close
games this season, having met UGH
outfits as II. & w. of Waterville and
Hartland. The game should be a
good exhibition with a good sized
crowd in attendance.
Monday will be the banner day on
the local diamond when two fast
games are to be staged. In the fore
noon Pittsfield will meet the Brain
tree. Giass.,) All Stars, who are on
a trip, playing three games in this
vicinity. This should be a fast game
as the Bay State nine are a speedy
outfit. This game will start at 10 A.
NJ. In the afternoon the final home
game of the season will take place
when Albion A. a. will be the locals
opponents. This team needs no in
troducti.Gn to the local fans as they
held the Pittsfield nine to a score
of to 5. only last Saturday and made
such a good impression that Manager
Pooler rebooked them for a hoii-
day attraction.
These three games should afford
a good treat to the baseball fans in

Firpo Gets Away
with Huge Amount
Food Every Day

Atlantic CITY. y. J., Aug. 30.-(By
A. PD-Luis Angel Firpo at his meals
is as interesting as the Firpo OF the
boxing ring. What he can do with ms
fists on a punch catcher is as nothing
compared to the treatment he gives an
inch-and-a-half thick sirloin STEAK
smothered with fried eggs.
The Argentine gladiator is one of the
greatest eaters the boxing ring has
known, DR.. Juan Reilly. an Irish
Spanish specialist who is making a
study of Luis Angel for the University
of Pennsylvania and various health in
situations and foundations, declared to-
day.
The man Jack Dempsey will meet
for the worlds heavyweight title Sep
tember IA, insofar as eating is con-
cerned, is following an idea directly
opposite to those of all the great
American trainers and specialists He
eats eggs and meat and fruit three
times day in great quantities and has
comparatively few vegetables on his
plate.
In a single day the food that Firpo
takes contains, according to Dr. Reil-
ly, about 1000 calories more than those
in the food of the huSkiest longshore-
men. The calories ~ Luis Angels
food are about $500 10 the meal as
compared to $500 day for long
shoreman and $500 day for the pro-
fessional man or white collar worker
This man Firpo is no ordinary mod
ern being" said DIR. Reilly. He has
come down through the ages, real
gladiator. In psychological studies of
him I have found things entirely new
to me. and puzzling. He trains his
mind as we'll as his physical self and
seems to know just what will happen
when he meets Dempsey. What this
knowledge it, I, of course, don't know;
butrI am Of the opinion that Dempsey
will have a great man against him"
Firpo returned to his training work
today after an idle spell, enforced by
rain
