II. K. H. WINS TWICE
Defeats Oakland and Daniclson- Plays Meehaniesville Team Tomorrow

The H. K. H. Silk Co. team, with slightly shifted and stronger lineup annexed two wins over the weekend defeating the Oakland, R. l.. team al Oakland on Sunday after giving the Danielson A. c. a terrible drubbing in a game played on the High school field Saturday afternoon.
 By winning these two weekend games, the H. K. II. ran their record to seven victories against two defeats. Tomorrow afternoon at the grounds of the Mechanicsville A. A. at Me chanicsville the H. K. H. will meet this team for the third time this sea son. Each team has won once to date and there is every indication of fast, hard fought ball game. A large crowd is expected for this holiday attraction Play will be called at 2.30.
 In the Danielson game the winning team scored twenty-four runs, ten of which came in the third inning and seven more in the seventh frame Danielson got four runs off Caffrey ir six innings, and three more of Plan tier who worked the last three in nings for the Putnam team. Neither pitcher had to exert himself due to the heavy hitting and scoring of the Putnam players. Nelson, Murphy and Courtemanche exeelled with the stick. though the entire line up did themselves justice.
 The game at Oakland was won by the H. K. H. outfit by a nine to seven score. Plantier pitched the first six innings for the winners, and with the exception of the fourth in. ming, when the home team scored six runs, did well. Csffrey went into the box in the seventh round, and held Putnam's two run lead by keeping Oakland scoreless, for the rest of tho game. Bouley hit safely three times in five chances for Putnam, while Nei. son knocked out homer and triple

ONE WAY TO KEEP COOL
Automobile Rides the Popular and
 Up-to-D2te Fashion Nowadays

How to keep cool is a subject now uppermost in the minds of everybody, especially politicians and motorists.
 To take a spin In the car has come to be almost the universal way to ''cool off," yet in many instances it brings about the opposite condition with the person who is charged with the upkeep, operation, and driving of the car.
 Few manufacturers have done so much as the Chandler company to permit the driver to keep cool-liter- ally and figurativeiy.
 Nothing irritates a driver more than the clashing and grinding of gears when he tries to make a shift. This never happens with the traffic transmission, an exclusive feature of the Chandler. Gear changes, either up or down. can be made instantane- onsly, and clashing is impossible, so that the driver need never become flustered or "het up."
 Keeping cool with the Chandler also IS prompted by running the ex- haust line of the Pikes Peak motor to the front of the motor, the hot gases being conducted to the rear far below the floorboards. which cannot become hot. The motor itself never gets overloaded; it can't be made to boil if it has oil and water.
 The cowl ventilators in the 1925 Chandler models also are larger and more easily operated.
 fabrication has been made easy by placing all oil and grease cups where thsy are accessible without getting under the car. A hand pres sure oil gun is used to lubrieate the chassis. The crankcase may be drain ed by simply lifting the hood and turning a handy valve handle.
 With it's powerful Pikes Peak motor and easily operated traffic transmits sion and body styles that include every convenience for free ventila. tion, the 1925 Chandler affords an ideal means of escaping the stifiing heat of midsummer.

ENGINEER KILLED and
SEVERAL HURT IN BIG
MICHIGAN TRAIN CRASH

KALAMAZOO, Mich, Sept. "a
One man is known to be dead and a
score of others are reported in
Iured, several seriously, following
a crash between the westbound
Detrolt-chicago flyer and an auto
mobile, on Hawthorne Paper Mill
crossing, east of here, early today.
The. locomotive turned over twice,
dragging nine PuIlmans off the rails
into the ditch.
The one known dead is Arthur
Adams, the engineer. He was killed
instantly. The fireman, whose name
has not been ascertained, was taken
to a Kalamazoo hospital with in
juries which physicians feared
would prove fatal.
A score of passengers, thrown from
their berths, suffered minor injuries.
So far as can be learned the auto
mobile which caused the wreck was
unoecupied, the passengers having
apparently foreseen the wreck in
time to leap out.

Flouts the Rights
of Chicago Teachers

At meeting Of the Board of Edu-
cation yesterday afternoon the board
went ON record as upholding Super
intendent McAndrews in his position
on the teachers councils, and com
pletely ignoring the teachers wishes
in the matter.
The school board accepted the mi
nority report of the Committee OF
Administration, which recommends
that all the rules pertaining to the
teachers councils be entirely left
under the superintendent jurisdic-
tion The vote was six in favor, and
three against this decision. II is
claimed by the teachers that OF the
six who voted in favor of the admin.
istration's report, three Of them have
no right to vote.
Today the Chicago Teachers FEEDER
alton will hold a big mass meeting
at the Studebaker Theater at AIS, at
which time a tremendous turnout of
teachers is, expected since this matter
has been very closely watched by all
the members OF the federation. AL.

Trade Union Class
Tonight to Discuss
Practical Problems

Practical methods to be pursued by
miltants in trade union activities are
the chief topics discussed, in the class
on Trade Union Conduct, given for
party members every Thursday night
at 722 Blue Island Ave-, with Comrade
Arne Swabeck as instructor.
The first lesson covered a brief
theoretical survey of the aims and
objects of the Communists in the trade
unions, showing the need of applying
tactics with view to the ultimate
object. The second lesson dealt with
character and methods of trade union
ism with special notes on differences
of American and European trade
unionism.
Four more lessons will cover the
following main points: Structure and
functional methods of American trade
unions; strategy and tactics of Com
munists in trade unions with partic-
ular reference to broader issues; or
ganization of Communists for effective
trade union work and attitude towards
everyday issues; conduct and methods,
parliamentary and constitutional rules
and proceedings.
The last points particularly deal
with the practical everyday problems,
which develop during union activities
and better understanding of how to
properly propose the measures re-
quired, will undoubtedly facilitate the
work which militants propose to carry
out
The class in Trade Union Conduct
is Of real value to the party members.
