Scout for All Clubs

Scout for All Clubs M
During the progress of the season
this scout shall scour the territory COW
cred by his league as well as ada
cent states.
If the expense involved is not too
great, he shall confine his work to the
amateurs, smaller colleges and semi
professional ranks. Out of the league
treasury he shall take care of the ex-
pense involved in getting these players,
signing them up at the fairest salary
possible.
At some time designated by the

to make good money and, best of all
protect them against the scarcity ol
players, which has been a real handi-
dup since the war.
1t is the scheme of President Bar
nard that the minor leagues, particu-
larly those of possibly the last three
clasSifications, go about the matter OF
getting players as Systematically as the
majors.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-12-17

President Barnard suggests these
leagues employ an official scout,
who shall represent the league
rather than any club in the organ

Barnard Has Plan

Barnard Has Plan
Because of the need of a place to
develop these players, a great mhny
major league clubs are buying minor
league franchises of various claSsifica-
ton to take care of their assorted
players.
While talking the situation over at
the Dallas meeting with President E.
S. Barnard of the American League,
he unfolded to me plan that would
protect the minors, put them in line

The plan is really a miniature
of the scouting system as employed
Z by the major leagues, except the
scout in question works for the or
ganizatiOn rather than a club.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-12-17

In order to meet the situation
facing them, the majors have gone
into the matter of scouting players
in a most extensive manner.

For 700 Ga. Students

The second costume ball for the
Fort Valley, Ga, Industrial School
for Colored Children was held this
week at the Renaissance Casino,
138th st. and Seventh Ave.
"In the south where in some states
ever half the population is colored
the white politicians secure the pas
sage of heavy school bond taxes, tax
ing the working class population to
the limit, and then devote practically
the entire proceeds to the schools for
white children" James Harris, man
ager Of the bali, said. "The few,
poorly constructed Negro schools run
for only short terms each year and
in Georgia, where the Fort Valley
School is located, the Negro teachers
receive an average annual salary of
only 1920"
The entire proceeds were used
for the school, which gives high
school and industrial training to 700
Negro workers and farmers children
of both sexes.

the dispute between the Amalgamated

ferred to Senator Wagner's duties in
Washington, saying Crater was in
duced to enter the fight as advisory

election in dual Local 104, Interna-

wing, has been branded as fraudulent
by J. Levin, manager of the Joint

Levin charges that the claim of the

the right wing elections is not true.
He is willing to prove that the work
ers are supporting the progressive
administration of the joint board.
The Local 104 affiliated with the
Joint Board has held a well-attended
meeting, addressed by H. Koretz,

no "labor problem" at the present

the workers had one strong, powerful
union" q well-informed worker said
last night. "But when the right
wingers, led by Morris Sigman, in
ternational president, expelled the
left wing workers they played into
the hands of the bosses, as aater
events proved conclusively."

low in the footsteps of the associa-
ton members and ignore all agree
ments made with the right wing dual
union.

Now, to end: / worked four years

1917, that your Nation could raise,
equip and train an army of millions to
operate more than 5000 miles from

of Americans, gained during my life
in Spokane, ! was not so confident Of

and smokes.

A MOTHER phase of this action
- tragic for the Americans but for.
tunate for us, was that most of the
shell fire directed at us fell into the
ravine in which the Lost Battalion
was caught. / guess it's position was

we were able to cause little dam
age to the bottledup men. We want.
ed to use flammenwerfers against
them, but their fire was so heavy on
all the roads leading out of the hollow
that as soon as our flame throwers
were brought out on a road they were
put out of action. We worked our
machine guns hard, but the woods
were so thick that it was all blind
fire. ] never imagined it gould have
been very effective.
"It was odd that the Lost Battalion
incident should have cropped up again
with me. Yet it did, after the armi-
stice, when / was left in Coblentz to
act as interpreter at the headquarters
of the American Army of Occupation.
My division, the 10th Reserve, was
the last German unit to cross the
Rhine at this point.
There / met Gen. Dickman and
several other officers of your Sd
Army, among whom was Col. Sheriff..
He and I talked over the Lost Bat
talon affair and compared notes with
a great deal of mutual interest. He
told me that Col. Whittlesey was then
i'll and in a hospital at Metz, believe.
Col. Sheriff. very kindly got him on
the telephone that we might have a
few words together. Col Whittlesey
told me he was glad to become ac-
quainted, even by telephone, with the
German who had written him the note
requesting the surrender of his bat
TALON. He was good enough to ask
me to visit him in New York if l ever
returned to the United States.
