URGE WORKERS TO
OBSERVE MAY DAY
N. Y. Workers Party
Issues Statement

(Continued from Page One)
Gratis, for estruction-unless class
solidarity and militancy saves this
union. The Needle Trades Union is
still in the midst of struggle which
requires the spirit of May First, unity
and militancy, to overcome. Millions
of unemployed walk the streets of the
country, searching fruitlessly for
work. Starvation faces the families
of the workers unless the unemployed
are organized as part of the working
class army. World Imperialism con-
tinues its policy of extending its do
main by encroachment and expropria-
ton of weaker nations, like America
in Nicaragua and all the great pow
ers in China.
The Fortress.
cat the same time Imperialism
realizes that the Soviet Union, the
fortress of the working class, and the
bulwark of weak nations against i'm
perialist rapacity, must be destroyed
otherwise imperialism itself will be
destroyed. Imperialism is pushing
the world in a new slaughter, bigger
and more destructive than the last.
"Unity, therefore, is absolutely es-
sential for the working class in this
acute struggle, Let us make this
May First celebration huge demon
stration of the unity of the working
class. Let US down tools on Tuesday,
May First, and celebrate altogether at
Madison Square Garden on May First
at 8 p. m.
Call To Action.
"All workers organizations are
called upon to endorse this meeting
and participate jointly in it's success.
One solid united front of labor
against these exploiters, to demon
strate for the following aims:
"Save the miners and needle trades
unions from destruction!
Eight for the organization and
support Of the unemployed
Defend the Soviet Union
Eight for the recognition of the
Soviet Union; struggle against new
imperialist war; for shorter hours;
against speed-up; for the organiza-
ton of the unemployed; for a labor
party; for a workers and farmers
government"

SIGNS POINT TO REVIVAL
OF THE 1926 WORLD SERIES

Detroit to wind up the season with
5game series against the Tigers.
The Athletics practically have
tossed away their last opportunity
and must win all of their six re-
naming games to have any chance,
depending on what the Yanks do
in their games.
Another shining example of grit
and courage is on display in the
National league where the Giants
are hanging onto the heels of the
Cardinals.
The Giants had to 90 IA innings
to beat the Reds yesterday, but
Freddy Lindstrum kept striving un-
til he started winning rally with
a single in the last inning
If the Giants can win the rest of
their games up to the final game
of the season with the, Cardinals
here next Sunday, the National
League race may end in a tie.
The Giants have seven games
left, two with Cincinnati, four with
Chicago and one with st. Louis. On
the other hand, the Cards have six
games with second division teams
three each against the Robins and
Braves, and the final game with
the Giants.

GR0SSMONT HIGH
FACING CENTRAL
in FIRST CLASH
Football Season to Get
Underway in Ell CentrO
Next Saturday.

Central Union will again open its
football season with Grossmont
High furnishing the opposition for
the protege's of Coach Armstrong.
The first clash of the season is to
get under way at 2:30 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon at the high school
field.
While Coach Armstrong is facing
the task of building up team from
practically all-green material, he
has gathered together a squad of
youngsters that have plenty of
gameness and fight, though they
may lack somewhat in the scientific
end of the game.
The first line eleven will carry
sufficient weight to keep it in the
running with the other high schools
but once this line is broken into, the
Central squad is mighty short on
weight.
Coach Armstrong has been build
ing up the team gradually. Not un-
til the middle of last week were the
boys put through the task of scrim
maging. Punting and passing
marked the opening practices and
in all probability J. D. Evans will
be assigned to do the kicking for
the Central squad in the opening
game.
Hamilton, one of the teams two
letter men and captain, will also be
found in backfield position. Clay
poole, guard, is the only other
1ettcrman on the squad.
The team, however, looked fairly
good in its scrimmagc work, despite
grcenness and may hop to it with
surprise for all.
The first league game will be
played late in October with Holt
willie as the opposition. Brawley
and CalcXico are looked upon as the
most logical pennant contenders
this season, Holtvillc, like Central,
has suffered loss of the majority of
lis veterans.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24-All signs
point to revival of the 1926 World
Series between the New York
Yankees and ST. Louis Cardinals.
Entering the final week of the
1923 baseball season, the Yankees
hold a 2-game. load over the Phila-
delphia Athletics and the Cardinals
hold l-game lead over the New
York Giants.
Neither Team can afford to slack
en- its pace, but both leaders appear
to have the strength left to send
them across the wire in front. The
Yanks need only five victories out
of their seven remaining games to
clinch the pennant, while the Cards
must win all seven of their games
to lake the flag, provided the two
contenders in both leagues win all
their remaining games.
The Yanks are crippled and their
pitching staff is shot, but they re-
fuse to quit fighting less than a
complete collapse can knock them
off.
They have two more games with
the Indians and then they move to

FAREWELL BOUT
FOR GAINES AT
ARENA FRIDAY
Imperial ColOred Boy
Goes Under Wing of
Mexico City Pilot.

When Homer Gaines, popular I'm
perial colorcd boy, steps through
the ropes Friday night to face Tim
my o 'Brien, flashy Phoenix battler,
fans of the valley will probably see
the last appearance here of Gaines
for some time. Harry Woodbury.
manager of Gaines, has announced
that the managerial reigns of gaines
have been turned over to Senor Y.
Ybara of Mexico City.
Gaines has appeared in Il fights
during his career as a battler, the
ma iority of his fights being waged
in the valley. During his fistic
career he has turned in II victories
by decisions and 10 by knockours
Seven bouts ended in draw decisions
and the remainder were in the lost
column. The majority of these,
however, were in his early days.
In his most recent battles Homer
was stopped by Joe Ortcga, Mex
lean southpaw, and lost on a tcchni.
cality to Jackie Spencer.
Homer's fights have always been
of the nature that please fans for
he gives lots of action, While
Homer has still much to learn in
the matter of skill, he puts up such
a powerful argument with his two
fists that an opponent always has
lis hands full.
In meeting O'Brien, Homer will
step in against boy that has all
kinds Of ability. o 'Brien has a
good punch, knack of timing that
is ali his own and in his recent
fight with Billy West proved that
he can take plenty of punishment
and look for more.
The battle should be a lively one
