T|LDEN' 8 TITLE
IN JEOPARDY
THIS WEEK.
BY VINCENT RICHARDS

Copyright, 1925. By Universal Service.
NEW YORK, Sent. 14.-JudginS
by the remarkable array of talent in
the national mems singles champion
ship opening today on the turf courts
at the West Side Tennis Stadium, this
event should be of the greatest in the
history of the game.
Almost every country that par
ticipatcd in the Davis Cup play, sym
bolic of the worlds championship, has
an entry in the championship and the
indications are that most of the for
cign players are at the top OF their
form.
William T. Tilden is again favored
to retain lis title, but not few of the
critics are of the opinion that tn
Philadelphian has slipped slightly ana
that he will have an exceedingly diff
ficult time in holding back the visitors
and his fellow countrymen.
LACKS CONFIDENCE.
In any event, if his play in the re-
cent Davis Cup matches at Philad Il.
phia. is TO be taken into considcra-
ton. there seems little doubt concern
ing his backward slide. In both his
singles matches against the French
man he displayed a remarkable lack Of
confidence.
Whether he is "ovcr-tcnnised" or
not is hard to say, but the fact re.
mains That he is not the Tilden of
old.
On the other hand, his nearest rival
in this country, William NJ. Johnston.
is playing n better brand of tennis
than he has shown in several years.
His singles play against Jean Boil
otra. who was within two points Of
defeating Tilden, was particularly i'm
pressive. Johnston is in the oppo-
site half of the draw to TildCn and IS
favored to reach the final round.
STAR FOREIGNERS.
OF the foreign players who vert
seeded in the draw, Jean Borotra,
Rene LaCoste, Manuel Alfonso and
James Anderson, stand out as the most
dangerous. They represent a serious
threat to the American title. any one
of whom might carry it back to his
respective country.
The American players who were
seeded. including Il. n. Williams, Fl
c. Kinscy, George King. Il. /. Norton
and Wallace johnson. can be depended
upon to give of their best and it is not
an impossibility that one of them
might relieve big Bill' of his precious
championship.
At any rate the tournament is a fit
ting climax to one of the greatest sea
sons in the history of lawn ten.

PUBLIC SERVICE
LOSES. 7 WO
STRAIGHT
Second Game for State
Amateur Title Goes
Ten Innings.

Public Service Utilities are back
home. a sadder but wiser crew.
They were eliminated from the Tex
as state amateur baseball race when
the Houston team gave them their
second straight setback. to 0, in
heart-breaking 10-inning struggle, but
they are greatly enlightened on the
question of just what composes an
amateur player.
In facing the strong Humble Oil
Company team. they encountered every
class of player from former major
leaguers to semi-pros in good standing.
They put up a wonderful fight in both
games, but were defeated in the long
run by superior experience.
STATE LEAGUE.
Secretary Roger Stokes of the San
Antonio Amateur Baseball Commits
sion, announced upon his return from
Houston Monday morning that the sc.
rics just ended undoubtedly will re-
suit in the formation of a close-knit
state amateur league, with definits
rules as to eligibility. He pointed TO
the fact that Bob Fenner, Utility first
baSeman. was expelled from the City
League for taking part in a semi-pro
game, whereas the Houston amateur
rules allow players to play all the pro-
fcssional ball they please.
Sundays contest, the second Of
threc-gamc series, was halted in the
sixth inning by heavy shower. but
was resumed after a Commute inter
mission. The second game was called
off.
Lefty" Carter, young Utility twirl-
or. pitched 4 great game against the
Humble veterans. For nine innings
he allowed only five safeties. scattered
through as many innings. but in the
tenth he faltcred and was lost. After
the bases had been filled on a walk.
single and a hit batsman, Hogan
lifted long sacrifice fly to right field
TO end the game.
LOSE CHANCES.
The Utilities passed up numerous
chances to score. Izzy Glen, former
major Lacquer, who occupied the
mound for Humble, was placed in a
prccarious position several times. but
each time he frightened up and held the
Utilities scoreless. The San Antonio
champs filled the bases in the ninth
frame. but Stebbins grounded out TO
the pitcher to end the inning.
DreSch came in with what would
have been the winning run in the first
frame, but he was blocked from the
plate, and, upon reaching back TO
touch it, was tagged out by Catcher
John Henry, former Washington and
San Antonio Bear receiver.

NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 17--Whlle
not prepared to say who is respon-
sibIe for the delay, the Joint Com.
mittee Of Action states that the prom
ised reinstatement Of workers, which
was agreed upon by both sides as
necessary preliminary to any discus
sion Of peace in the international
Ladies' Garment Workers Union, was
proceeding far too slowly to suit the
members Of Locals 2, 9 and "a.

ness Of reinstatement is not being
carried thru in good faith" said Louis
Hyman, chairman of the committee
IF the Joint Board was sincere IN
its desire for peace, and actually in
tended to carry out its promise to put
back on their Jobs all workers who
were discharged as result of the

ing the Joint Committee of Action,
they could have completed the work
by this time.

"It is a week since the committee
ofshop chairmen was appointed and
they have been busy every day try
ing to carry out their task as media
tors between the two sides. On the
very first day they began to work,
it was agreed that these reinstate-
ments should be made Immediately,
yet they have scarcely been begun.
with the machinery at the Joint
Boards command, there is no ex-
PLANTATION for this delay except that
there is no real desire to straighten

rank and file of the workers want"
Piekets Return.
Following the Joint Boards fail
ure to carry out its agreement to re-
move all detectives and police from

There were seven arrests wednes-

wholehearted support to the resolu-
ton on the immediate tasks of the
party, on trade union work, the labor
party campaign, Imperialism, work
among women, agricultural work, and
other major campaigns of the party.
2. We welcome the action taken by
the convention for the liuidation OF
Loreism in our party. Our party has
reached the point of development
where opportunistic deviations by
leading members Of the party can no
longer be tolerated. In the expulsion
Of Lore from the party and the re.
moval of Comrade Askeli from the
editorial board of the Tyomies, the
convention indicated that the fight
against opportunism will be intensi-
fed in our party in the future. We
pledge our support in this campaign.

8. The resolution on the Bolshev-
ization Of our party marks new step
forward for the American Communist
party. The reorganization of the
party on the basis of shop nuclei and
international branches and a central
lied apparatus with the language
fractions marks a necessary step to
naturalization of our party, and lays

to give every aid possible in effecting

lternational to it's representative, de-
clarfng that ut has. finally become
clear that the Ruthenberg group is
more loyal to the decisions. Of the
Communist International and stands
closer to its views" lays the basis for
the future development of the leader
ship Of our party and the unification
of its leadership. We declare oursac-
ceptance of the decision of the Com
munist International and that we will
loyalty support the Central Executive
Committee elected on the basis of
that decision, in carrying on the work
Of the party.
Sound Basis for Unity.
This conference declares that in its
opinion any attempt to discredit or
to question the character of this
Comintern decision or in any way at
all to interfere with its complete exc
cution would be blow struck against
the Comintern and its American sec
ton, the Workers (Communist) Party
of America. The conference of the
Greek section of the Workers (Com-
munist) Party of America welcomes
the decision Of the former majority
in the national convention to accept
the last resolution of the Communist
international on the situation in the
American party. We hope that the
followers of the former majority Fos-
ter group in our party will in true
Communist fashion Loyalty execute
this decision which in our opinion af-
fords sound Communist basis for
the unification and the healthy de-
velopment of our party.
5. The conference of the Greek
section of the Workers (Communist)
Party of America hereby declares its
fullest Endorsement of the Central
Executive Committee and calls upon
all members of the Greek section Of
our party in particular, and all other
members Of our party in general, to
forget their past factional differences
to drop all factional strife and man.
euvers, and to rally as one solid pha-
lanx, as one unified party, for the
new, constructive Communist activi-
ties, to develop our party under the
leadership Of the Central Executive
Committee chosen by the last national
Convention of our Party.
The last order of business was the
election of a National Propaganda
Bureau. The C. e. c. representative
proposed that all previous factional
hard feelings and bitterness be dis
carded and forgotten as soon as pos
sibIe. Comrade Lovestone stressed
the need for complete unity in the
ranks Of the party and appealed to
the Greek comrades to close their
ranks behind the leadership Of the
Central Executive Committee.
After this appeal by the represen-
tatives Of the Central Executive Com
mittee the following Is comrades were
unanimously elected as the bureau:

GREEK SECTION
PLEDGES C.E.C.
FULL SUPPORT
Resolution for Party Is
Passed Unanimously

The Fourth National Conference Of
the Greek section of the Workers
(communlst) Party Of America has
just closed It's last session.
The conference lasted for several
days and had successful deliberations
over many Of the problems eonfront-
Ing the party.
There were present nineteen dele
gates. representing branches from De-
troit, San Francisco, Los Angeles,
Chicago, Canton and Yorkville. Ohio,
Broclzton, Boston. Mass, Blair Station
and Amrbridge, Pa, Milwaukee, Wis,
Cleveland. O., Newark, N. j., Toledo,
o., and New York.
Discuss Shop Nuclei.
The bulk of the time spent by the
conference was given over to a dis
cussion on party reorganization and
trade union work.
Special consideration was given to
developing the oficial organ Of the
Greek section, The Empros, from a
weekly to a semi-weekly.
The circulation of the Empros is
already about four thousand, and is
far out of proportion to the member
ship Of the Greek section. In this
respect the Greek section of our party
exceeds every other section; that is,
the circulation Of its official organ is
greater per member in this section
than in any other language group in
the party.
The representatives Of the Central
Executive Committee to this conven-
ton was Comrade Jay Jovestone.
Comrade Lovestone brot greetings
from the C. E. C. of the party and re-
viewed its work in the last year. The
Central Executive Committee repre-
sentative went at length into con-
sideration of the party's main prob
lens which he outlined to be as fol
lows:
Main Party Problems.
/. The intensifcation of our trade
union work.
2. The labor party campaign.
8. The reorganization of our party
on the basis of shop nuclei, and the
development of a unified, centralized
party.
4. The problem of Bolshevization
and the struggle against opportunist
tendencies in our ranks.
5. Agricultural work.
s. The building up of a powerful
press and a Communist literature in
America.
z. Defense work.
c. E. c. Resolution Unanimous.
Comrade Lovestone's resolution
which follows, was unanimously
adopted by all the comrades present
regardless of their former adherence
in the last party controversy.
The resolution follows:
/. The resolutions of the parity
committee, unanimously adopted by
the national convention, lay down a
correct line of Communist policy for
cur party. These resolutions provide
the basis for work of the party mem
bers among the masses, thru which
alone our party can grow into a mass
