ON THE SIDE LINES

Walter johnson is due to face the
White Sox in their first appearance
of the season here this afternoon
which is ladies' day, by the way. Act
ing Manager Collins was expected to
choose between Blankenship, Con-
nally and Lyons.
EIIerbe's damaging double in the
opener was a fluky affair. His drive
bounded off Zacharv's glove and then
ricocheted from Harris leg to the
outfield.
Jacobsen's drive in the second was
so hard hit it turned Goslin half
around.
Rice was given fine hand for his
effort on Gerber'S wallop in this
frame. Sam turned with the crack of
the bat and sprinted for dead center,
leaping to spear the ball with one
hand as it was passing over his head.
The thumb of McManus' throwing
hand was cracked when struck by
pitched ball in bunting in the first in
ming. He retired in favor of Norman
Mcmillan, recently obtained from the
Red SoX in exchange for Homer EZ-
zell.
Gerber made fancy play in getting
Rice's drive off Vineyards glove in
one fin back of second and tagged the
speedy Samuel.
LeIbOld's hit, which followed. was a
cheap affair, the ball bounding in
front of the plate and falling un-
touched back of the box.
Williams figured in spectacular
stunt in the sixth. when he reached
Zachary's little fly following a long
run. After Juggling the ball three or
four times he finally clung to it.
Rice looked bad in going after Sis

fact that "the law provides that we

By ALFRED V. FRANKENSTEIN

BY ALFRED v. FRANKENSTEIN-
The final program of the North
Shore festival, at Patten gymnasium
of Northwestern university, was an all
Wagnerian one, calling for five SOLO
lists, chorus Of 500, and the Chicago
Symphony orchestra. The program
demonstrated, if anyone had any
doubt, that Wagner's early works are
immeasurably inferior to his later
creations.
After the ancient and honorable ap-
plause maker, the overture to Tam
hauser," Henri Scott, bass of the
Metropolitan opera of New York, sang
the lode to the Evening STAR" from
the same opera. This, as with all the
other vocal music of the evening, was
sung in English. There is no particu-
lar virtue in thus translating Wagner,
for, with one exception, it was impos-
sible to understand the singers any
way, and the lack of the German SON
GRITTY is a positive detriment to the
general effect.
Kathryn Meisle, Of the Chicago
opera, sang the aria, "Gerchter Gott,"
or, as the program had it, Almighty
Power" from the composers earliest
work, "Rienzi." "Rienzi" was written
mainly as a potboiler, and sounds like
it. 1t is good Meyerbeer, but one does
not go to Wagnerian concert to hear
Meyerbeer
The finale Of the first act of "Lohen-
grin" will be forgotten when we have
got far enough away, in point Of time,
from the composer And the finale Of
the first act is not one Of the bits that
will be remembered.
The rest of the program was, in two
senses, pure Wagnerian gold. The
sheer sensuous beauty of Siegmunds
love song, in Die Walkuere" was en-
HANGED by the beautiful vocal quality
of Paul Althouse, and his all but per-
feet enunciation. Two great and dra-
matte excerpts from the same music
drama followed, the ride of the Val
kyries," and Wotan's farewell wonder
fully interpreted by Clarence White

American Workers
Send First Help
to German Miners

The Committee for international
Workers Aid has just received a
cablegram from Beuthen, Upper Sile-
STA, sent by striking miners of Upper
Silesia, showing that first help has
already arrived from America for the
miners who are struggling to main
tain the rights which they had won
with the greatest of difficulty, against
tremendous odds. The cable reads as
follows: First help in hard struggle
in Upper Silesia thru the Interna-
tional Workers Relief has been re-
ceived. Brotherly thanks. The fight
ing sentiment is good. We look con-
fidently towards the future, counting
upon further help from you"
The campaign of the Committee for
international Workers Aid for relief
of the striking miners in the Ruhr
and other parts of Germany is meet
ing with success. The Philadelphia
local Of the committee has sent in
1000. and another $1,000 has been
sent by the San Francisco local. The
Chicago local has supplied $400.
Money is on the way from the other
locals. All reserve funds are being
rushed to the national office in Chi
cago and they will be despatched i'm
mediately to the fighting zone where
the miners are fighting the first bat
tie in the war which has been started
by the capitalist class of Germany
against the whole working class of
that country. The workers Of Amer
lea are responding to the call for
help. Another individual contribution
has been received in the national Of
fee of the Committee for Interna-
tional Workers Aid from a Soviet
worker who came to the headquarters
at 10 South Lincoln Street and gave
a ten dollar bill for the striking min
ers without giving his name. Such
individual contributions are an indi.
cation of the international class soil

tains some of the finest music Wagner
could write. The conclusion is utterly
resigned and gloomy. and, like the de-
struction of ancient gods that consti-
tutes its subject, it is supremely grand.
The concert and the festival closed

BOSSES WANT WORKERS YOUNG
Continued from page ~

"a billion conductor feet Of cable were
turned out Of the Hawthorne factory
which was built to produce 10 billion
conductor feet"
President Du Bots boasts of the
Standardization in his article. He says,
"the Ford factories employ sixty
thousand people and assemble 5000
dissimilar parts, whereas the Haw-
thorne telephone apparatus factory,
employing $4,000 people, assemblies
10000 dissimilar parts" He seems
proud of the fact that the Western
Electric has standardized even the in
tricate telephone apparatus.
Young People Caught
Young men who have neglected their
education, accepting the Western
Electric bunk about learning trade
on good faith learn. often when it is
too late, that they have been absorbed
into a monstrous machine that keeps
down their wages and speeds up their
production to the limit. They learn
that the Western Electric system is
unique. and their trade" does not
apply to any other plant except the
Western Electric factory.
This is one reason for the well
known Western Electric policy OF
'hiring as mahy boys as men," as one
worker there put it. "They like to
train the workers themselves" he
told the DAILY WORKER.
The Western Electric plant makes
it's own tools and dies and employs
/ 900 men in the tool-making depart
ment. This shop which carries on
skilled work trains its own men in
Western Electric methods. There is
hardly a man in the department" a
tool-maker told the DAILY WORKER,
who has not been brought in green
and trained in the plant 1t is very
hard for a toool-maker trained in the
Western Electric to get good job
anywhere else. The Western Electric
methods are different"
Can't Make Union Wage
Green men come in and work for
eighty cents an hour at the start,
thinking to learn a good trade and
work up to higher salary. But even
the men who have worked in the shop
for twenty and twenty-five years are
getting only 95 cents an hour. After
the non-union tool makers have work
ed in the shop for several years, get
ting raises Of only few cents an
hour every year, they find they are
earning about twenty cents an hour
less than the minimum wage paid to
union tool makers. The lowest pay
for union tool makers is S1.OS cents
