was his stop and throw Of Lamar's
rap far to the right of Washington's
field leader and the other was the
play he attempted on Simmons roller
back of second base shortly after.
Harris contrived to get the ball only
by diving headlong for it and his
throw to Peck, In attempting a force
out at second, was made while sprawl
ing in the dirt. Few other second
basemen could have gotten that
smash and it is doubtful If any would
have been able to try for Il retire
ment which failed by but Il narrow
margin.
Bryan Harriss' action in thumbing
his nose at the crowd when it raZzed
him as he was taken out Of the box
was as reprehensible a thing as could
be done, with thousands of women in
the stands. and he fully deserved the
summary action taken by Umpire

the huge Thong, thousands of whom
sat in the stands for several hours
waiting for the battle to get under
way yesterday, but none was more
spectacular than the stunt pulled by
Bluege to score in that big third
inning rally.
On first when Peck delivered the
double that cashed Goslin and Moon
Harris. OSs was waved to the plate
by Coach Altrock when Lamar
fumbled the bounding ball. Gallo
ways relay to CoChrane reached the
plate before Bluege, who would have
been blocked if he attempted to slide
and would have been called out for
running out of line had he attempted
to slide around wide of the backstop.
There was only one method Bluege
could employ to reach the pan in
safety and he took it by leaping into
the air and diving over Cochrane's
form.
Had Bluege'S brain been less active
or its coordination with his muscles
slower he would have been the third
out OF the frame, and only two runs
would have scored. as Peck could not
have essayed his sensational theft of
home q moment later.
Bluege demonstrated in this one in
stance that he is a truly remarkable
player, but he is destined never to
receive full credit for his ability be-
cause of the marvellous ease and grace
with which he performs the most diff
ficult stunts.

Right now the curve-ball artist Of
the Mackmen is leading the process
sion, with only three defeats on the
debit side of the ledger, which shows
IA successful efforts, while Washing
tons ancient 'spitball manipulation has
10 wins to his credit as against five

signs of wear and tear that his fellow

ing been sadly hammered in his most
recent appearance, at Detroit last
week, while Covey, with six full days

Mackmen will just about settle their
hash for this season, and unless I am
sadly mistaken we will hand it to
them today, although we may have
to scrap for all we are worth to do 1t.
THE AS are batting desperately
against great odds and deserve q lot
of credit for their efforts under the
circumstances. They are 4 game

means. but we have the stronger
combination Of the two, and that's all
there is to 1t. ~
Tie confidence felt by Harris and
his charges regarding the final out
come of the race seems fully justi-
sed by a perusal of the figures. They
show that with their advantage of

To All Members Of the Communist
Party Of SwedenI
DEAR COMRADES.

nEAR COMRADES,
- 1t is in the interest Of the devel-
opment of the Communist movement
In Sweden that you now devote the
most serious attention to the inner
differences in your party. These diff
ferences have arisen as a result of
the non-Communist deviations Of the
right wing of the leading party com
rades. You must arrive at clearness
and give careful thought to these diff
ferences in order, after mature con-
sideration, to adopt decisive atti-
tude and thereby secure the Commun-
ist line in the central committee Of
your party.
The Executive Committee Of the
Comintern thru special instructions
directed the attention. of your central
committee to it's unavoidable tasks.
These instructions however were very
inadequately carried out in practice.
The right majority of the bureau Of
the party central has neither in the
organizatory work nor in the political
and economic struggle shown suffi-
cient interest for the development of
a lively Communist activity. It has
never taken the trouble to render all
party members in Sweden sufficiently
acquainted with the decisions of the
Comintern.
THE representatives of the right
wing have also not always adopt
ed clear attitude to such remnants
Of petty bourgeois theology as paciflsm
and religion. During the past year
the Enlarged Executive was compelled
to correct the standpoint of Comrade
Hoeglund regarding such an elemen-
tary question as the attitude of Com
munists to religion and to make it
clear to him that the Communist
Party must not be Indifferent to the
religious preiudices of their members,
even when they demand neutrality
towards religion on the part of the
bourgeois state.
In addition to this the central COM
mittee of the party during the last
years has not succeeded in maintain
ing comradely relations with the
Communist Youth League, altho the
youth league achieved relatively great
success. The fact that Comrade Hoeg-
lund, in the Norwegian question, in

ell, which met on April 8, and sat for

The International Peasant Council

has only existed for year and half.
During this short time it has by no
means been able completely to de-
velop its work. AS yet the I. P. c. is

countries in which it has no organ

Mortqaaed Homes.

Mortgaged Homes.
WHILE glib salesmen tour the work
w ing class districts of America
with fine sounding -''own-your-own-
home" propositions, workers who now
own technically their homes find il
difficult to refrain from giving violent
expression to their emotions. What
good is IL to you to have a property
title in your pocket when the property
is mortgaged up to the hilt?
The department of coihmerce bureau
at Washington has RECENTLY published
a volume entitled Mortgages on

which reveals (where II tries to hidc)

which characterize th8t living condi-
