As usual the Budnick brothers. Simon and Stanley. were the stars of the local team. Both played whirlwind games in the field while they were a tower of strength at bat.
 Tho Orioles went at Burlington like wildcats. Al Anderson twirled championship baseball and the op- posing team was no match at all for the locals.
 The Spcedhoys took two games over Saturday and Sunday They conquered East Berlin Saturday and the Acmes of Hartford yester- day. The first game was walk away and the second was won, 4 10 ., in five innings.
 The Burritts gave the Federals of Middletown facing in seven innings and had the game gone any further, the score would have been bigger. The Middletown club was no match for the New Britain 11am.

George Mulligan's efforts to get a suitable arena in Hartford for the holding of the Kaplan-Garcia bout next month have brought him nothing but admiration from New Britain fight fans. His plan now to erect d gigantic stadium on the site of the former Le Bal Tabarin in East Hartford with seating ac- commodations for 5000 people is evidently a move to have q decent place to have his football team do it's stuff next fall.

The Falcons, next Sunday. will play the Riverview club of Norwich at St. Mary's field. This is the club that represents the Norwich State Hospital and is regarded as one of the best baseball teams in the state. The Falcons are paying real money to have this club appear in this city and 1t will be one of the best at fractions of the year for local fans.
New Britain herald., 1926-05-17

The stadium will be available for bicycle races, fights and other forms of sports and as Mulligan's team has a franchise in the Ma tional Football league, this will probably he the home park for the Blues next football season.
New Britain herald., 1926-05-17

This Riverview club is one that will play the best kind of a game and the Falcons, in order 10 win, will have to travel every minute at top speed. Other local clubs that have stood up against this outfit know just what kind of a team it is and ii the Falcons come through with q win, they will know that they have been in a baseball game.

The track team will be among the entries in the Yale interscho- lastic meet to be held in New Ha- ven Saturday and local fans are looking ahead to seeing the local entries place in many events. This is one of the most important meets of the season and the local boys will all be in good shape for the battle.

The high school baseball and track teams will have a busy time this week. The postponed meeting between the locals and Crosby High will be held tomorrow after noon while the baseball team on Wednesday, will meet Weaver High Of Hartford. This latter will be the second last game of the season at home for New Britain. The only other baseball game scheduled for New Britain is with the Hartford High team on May 20.

The Falcons started off with crash yesterday and were pounding the pill in great shape when the torrent came down. They were six runs to the good and as they play cd five innings, the game goes down on the records as win for the team.

Dr, Washowitz. the New Britain football king, is also planning for the coming season and he will be ready to announce something to the general public in a short while concerning the hopes and prospects for the New Britain football fans.
New Britain herald., 1926-05-17

New Britain teams are certainly making things hot for all corners so far this season. The Falcons yesterday were well on their way 10 give the Elm City Giants the trimming Of their young lives when rain came down after the fifth inning and stopped the contest. The Orioles handed a fine drubbing 10 the Burlington North Ends while the Burritts and Speadboys chaIled ID wins over opponents over the weekend.

A True Story of the A. F. Of l.. Convention

of L. mission to the U. S. S. R. was
unnecessary, unthinkable and IN
American. Green extricated himself
by making public a statement that
Eddy betrayed him In mentioning Rus
STA in his speech. Eddy by that time
had left Detroit for New York His
only defense came from an accidental
witness, a member Of Green's own
union, the United Mine Workers Of
America, who overheard the verbal
agreement between Green and Eddy
just prior to the address. The witness
said Eddy was asked merely to avoid
discussing the recognition of the So
Wet government by the United States
government, a controversial subject
which must be avoided because it was
to come formally before the conVen-
ton in the form of a resolution later.
Stronger and stronger attacks
against Eddy were subsequently made
by Green and other delegates. He was
charged by one delegate with "prosd-
tuting the privileges of the floor"
And ultimately even the Eddy episode
came to be thought of as one more
example Of the boorish manners. Of
open shop Detroit.
And on the eight day, as the
phrase goes in Genesis, Green deliv-
cred himself of the following charge
of moral turpitude and backwoods dis
Icourtesy:
"Mr. Eddy came here the other day.
Why came he here? Someone mad
lvertently said he was invited here.
Who invited him here? Why came
he here asking for this platform (the
oratorical diversions of structure in
dictate the emotional pitch to which
lGreen had reused himself)? And
why, when he came, did he abuse the
privileges granted him, the privileges
of this floor? There seems to be
something in the atmosphere Of De-
troit that causes some people to for
get the rules Of common decency and
common courtesy"
II this account OF an important
event appears in places to be some
what satirical, is is nevertheless not
more satirical than the facts are bit
terly ironic. But beyond the irony and
the ognominy and the bombast Of
those ten days that did not shake the
world is the further fact that such
tactics can not prevail much longer.
1t was an American Plan convention.
Before long the rank and file workers
with a new class conscious leadership
are going to organize the trade union
business itself.
AS for the impolite American Plan
employers of the rudely open shop
city of Detroit, they were glad to see
1.-THE delegates depart. And the dele
gates were just as glad to go. Green's
declaration notwithstanding. Their
feelings were hurt and they did not
know what to do.

A scab's Tragedy.

(By Art Shields, FEDERATED PressJ
"Biddie" Flanagan used to be one
Of the most popular fellows in Saga

Buffalo & Susquehanna Coal Co. that
began a year ago. He was motor
man in the mines; a member of many
fraternal societies. jolly "cut up"
and the life of a party. He had a
fund of good stories and humorous
ways that won the hearts of every
one.
But "Biddie" Flanagan left down
during the strike and something hap
pened to him while he was away that
no one can understand. He came
back to Sycamore as scab in the
b. & S. mines.
II4s popularity turned to a chunk OF
ice. His old ledge mates and fellow
workers turned their backs on him as
he passed the picket line. In the fra
ternal societies folks shut up as he
approached. His jokes fell fiat on a
silent audience.
"Biddie's" sun was set. He. took
to drink. And then, the other day
swallowed dose of poison and passed
out.
There were no union pallbearers at
his funeral.

"At the time the resolution was pre-
sented to the committee we had no
knowledge of the extreme need that
exists in Passaic," she rose to say:
"The financial secretary of that or
ganization is seated at this table, sent
here by the Passaic strikers in order
to try to secure immediate relief. l
have been informed by her that the
store keepers have refused further
credit and that the money in the treas
ury is exhausted. While 1 agree with
and will support the committee, it is
the purpose of the officers of the
United Textile Workers to get to-
gether some money Immediately to re-
lieve the distress existing there"
She did not attempt to obtain the
privilege of the floor for Miss Dawson.
Green called a conference Of inter
national officers for that day to lay
plans for immediate relief and 1t was
said afterwards that within three
weeks total Of about $4,000 would
be in the hands of the relief commit
tee, in the form Of donations or loans
Of varying amounts. By agreement it
was decided that the same conference
would raise an equal amount for the
striking International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers in New York.
In spite of the pledges of relief, a
general reluctance was conspicuous
except for the responses Of a handful
of delegates. This was the high point
of the convention.
ON the same unhappy day on which
" the convention scuttled the resolu-
ton on organizing. the auto workers,
Sherwood Eddy, of the national direc-
torate of the Y. M. c. A., found his
Christian way to the convention plat
form. Green apparently believed that
by giving this national ''Y" officer the
platform he would shame the hard
hearted Hannahs of the local "Y." by
seeming to set an example Of free
speech. Eddy discussed the findings
of a commission OF professional and
business men and statisticians with
whom he recently toured Europe and
Russia. Dealing almost entirely with
Russia, the body and conclusion OF his
speech was an impassioned appeal to
the convention to go and do likewise
The old guard in the convention ap-
parently demanded Of Green after the
recess that he explain why he surren-
dered the platform for such a sacri-
legeous purpose as the advocacy Of an
A. F. of L. mission to the Union OF
Socialist Soviet Republics. For Green
knew that at that very time the com
mittee on resolutions was organizing
it's annual TRADE against the U. S. s.
r., the Workers (Communist) Party,
the Trade Union Educational League
the Communist international and the
Red International Of Labor Unions,
which was to be screamed forth by
the American eagles of the convention
when the cloth hat and capmakers
resolution for the recognition OF Rus
STA was reported out. This eagles
chorus was to be the climax Of the
convention, with John L. Lewis, of the
United Mine Workers, Matthew Vol
and James Wilson. vice-president, and
President Green taking the leading
solo parts. The report OF the commit
tee. moreover, was to include an in
cisive recommendation that an A. v.

ton visits in which institutionalized,
Fordized guides conduct squads Of
visitors at regular periods through the
least depressing departments of the
huge flivver mill. Green and Frank
Morrison, bureaucratic secretary of
the A. F. of L., were among those who
went through. But neither Ford nor
any of his executive welcomed the
distinguished visitors. This was an
other one of those Detroit snubs, to
which references were made by the
Inundated delegates at almost every
session of the Today convention. This
visit to the closed shop of the Ford
Motor Co. was the last mark of atten-
ton paid to the automobile industry
by the American Federation of Labor
in its 1925 convention.
THE appeal for financial and moral
4 aid for the textile strikers in the
Passaic district gave the convention
Temporarily a decisive working class
character. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, of
New York, was imported by Thomas
F. Mcmahon, president OF the United
Textile Workers, to rouse the jaded
delegates to a sense Of their RESPONSE
bility. In his speech for the strikers
DR.. Wise told the convention it was
its duty to organize from top to
bottom" the entire textile industry,
employing 100000 men, women and
children, of whom the ranks of the
Passaic strikers, he said, were a sym
boil. The following day the conven-
ton voted immediate aid and took up
a collection on the floor. Mcmahon
was not present at the convention on
either day, though he was in charge
of the U. T. w. delegation. He left
the floor work of Sara A. Conboy.
When Delegates Max S. Hayes, Of the
Typographical Union, Christian M.
Madsen of the painters, James c.
Shanessy of the BARRIERS and Joseph
N. Weber OF the musicians spoke in
favor Of speeding up the relief as an
emergency measure, Vol, secretary
Of the resolutions committee, tried to
sidetrack the rush of sympathy and
put the convention back to sleep by
insisting the relief question was rou-
tine business.
~Your committee was acting upon
the resolutions and information that
came to the committee" Vol said i'm
patiently. THE committee was not
advised of the statements and Of the
personal note sent through Delegate
Max Hayes. We are acting upon an
appeal presented by duly accredited
international union representing these
striking textile workers and by no
other agency. What the committee
recommends is what the international
union desires"
The personal note to which Vol
referred was given to Hayes by Al
fred Wagenknecht, general secretary
OF the Passaic Relief Committee. Sit

boy and the other U. T. w. delegates

decided to speak once more. inasmuch
