event he doesn't shape up salts

Bump has something on the AS;
though, and is practically a sure
thing to see action. When no one
else was able to get down Mack's
machine year ago, he waded in
without fear, showing best when
the Elephants seemed. toughest.
Having tentatively settled his
mound plans for this series Walter
already is looking ahead to the fol-
lowing four-game set with the Red
Sox which, he believes, will give
him line on some Of his younger
pitchers.
The veteran Fred Marberry Is
one who is scheduled to go in this
series while Bob Burke, Lloyd
Brown and possibly, Ad Liska may
be started if the circumstances war
rant it. From the latter three at
least one starting pitcher must be
developed to work along with Brax-
ton, Hadley, Jones and Marberry
and since the Crimson hose general
~ are used for experimental pur-
poses all may get their chance to
show early.
Burke and Brown are those
most seriously considered at the
present time but Liska, though
only rookie, is bidding de.

Both Brown and Burke have the

that doesn't mean thing. If the
Minneapolis rookie can get his
underhand stuff working he's going
to be hard to beat and that goes
for everybody"
Having followed this procedure
johnson hopes to have his pitching
plans all Strengthened out at the
conclusion of this seyen-game home

The delegates at the Cleveland
convention who will represent the
building trades, will have to take
into consideration that our present
union bureaucrats will, like all
brutal beasts in their agony before
dying, become more brutal in their
fight against all militants in the
unions. 1t is therefore of great i'm
portance that the Cleveland conven-
ton shall put for US in the building
trades an energetic leadership, which
proved by their past to be capable
to lead and sacrifice for a just
cause.
We carpenters, as all the other
building trades workers, are at pres
ent in need of militant leadership
around whom all the militant forces
in the union I'D the unorganized
outside the union shall rally.
We are in need of a real education
in class struggle. We are in need
Of . clear program Of action for
the carpenters.
The following points should be
taken into consideration by those
who will discuss a national program
for the carpenters:
1.-The 7-hour day and fve-day
week in order to decrease the de-
nloralizing effect of naturalization
