AMAZING ROBINS
TURN SLUGGERS

One OF the ironies in the career
OF Uncle wilbert Robinson il that
his Brooklyn players, who couldn't
hit lick when the Robins boasted
the best pitching staff in the
league, are batting like demons now
that the hurting corps consists or
practically only DazZy Vance.
Led by Herman, the legaue's
premier batsman; Bancroft, who is
enjoying a new lease, on life,
Hendrick, Frederick and Bressler,
the once "RunIess Robins" have
become a team of hitting fools.
They are betting the ball at 800
clip but can hardly keep out Of the
cellar because Of the bush league.
pitching they have been getting.
Uncle Wilbert's neDhews manage
to hand the leaders q jolt now and
then, however Scoring six runs
in the fifth inning yesterday. they
beat the Pirates again, 7 to s.
JughandIe Johnny Morrison,
former Pirate hurier now at.
tempting 4 comeback with
Brooklyn, saved the game by
holding his fOrIner mates hitlesS
for three innings after they had
knocked out AuStfn Moore,
rookie from Macon.
Only half q game separates the
league-leading Pirates and the third
place Cubs this morning, as both st.
Louis and Chicago won. The Cubs
outslugged Boston. 10 to 8, the erst-
while league leaders dropping below
Brooklyn into the cellar.
Chick Hafey, with a double, .
triple and his fifteenth homer, led
the second'place Cardinals to 10
to 8 win over the Phillies. Klein
of the Phils also clouted his fiji
teenth homer.
Cincinnati seems to be the pet
jinx of the Giants this year, having
trimmed the McGraWmen four times
in five starts. Jake May beat them
yesterday, Z to 3. his mates making
merry at Benton's expense.
The Yankees also exercised their
Indian sign on the Browns again,
downing the Missourians . to 2.
Hoyt held St. Louis to five
hits. Combs tripled off Crowder
twice and scored on . sacrifice
fly BY Robertson each time.
The Yanks failed to gain on the
Athletics, however, as the Meckmen

Prepare for the Daily
Worker reiheit Bazaar

Workers are preparing for the
great annual event, the Daily Work
er and Morning Freiheit Bazaar
which will be held on Oct. 8, 4, 6
and 6 at Madison Square Garden.
The Bazaar committee reports that
the Bazaar this year will be larger
and more elaborate than the two
previous ones. The millinery work
ers promise to have real millinery
shop where you will be able to get
the latest styles ir hats. The dress
and cloakmakers are already making
up beautiful dresses and coats which
will be sold at bargain prices The
clothing workers are making prep
arations to have the largest assort-
ment of mems top coats. suits, and
overcoats. The Women's Council is
working in full speed for their
booths. They promise to have 12
booths where they will sell kitchen
utensils. And of course the jewelers.
will be there with their factory and
repair shop. They are also making
up some new revolutionary emblems.
The cafeteria workers are organic
ing the best cooks in the city foc

comrades to stop eating until the
Bazaar. If you are eating at home
the grocery clerks have promised to
supply us with all the best canned
goods in the city and if you are g.
vegetarian you will be able to OBJ
tain fresh and canned vegetables at
vegetarian prices.
The committee requests that if

Trial Is to Have Packed jury

agents of the mill owners who hoped
to get them on the jury. Whether
or not any Of these succeeded in
getting on the jury, cannot be said.
Other questions of the defense
counsel were: "Do you believe that
workers have the right to organize?
Are you prejudiced against labor
unions that are not affiliated with
the A. F. of L.? Are you prejudiced
against northern organizers coming
down South to organize and lead
strikes? Do you believe that man
has right to defend himself and
his property against unlawful attack,
even if the attacker is an officer"
rs per cent answered this last ques-
ton with a very decided "Yes!"
Southerners believe in self-defense.
Almost none of the prosperous
petty bourgeoisie that admitted pre-
JUDGE against the defendants could
give any specific reasons for their
prejudice or any facts upon which
they based their opinions. The usual
answer was "from what l read in
the Charlotte Observer or the Char
lotte News and what l have heard"
"Ringleaders, Like Beal."
But most of them knew quite well
against whom their prejurice is d.
rected-"the ringleaders, like Beal.
The northern agitators who are res
ponsible for coming down and STIR
ring up all the trouble"
Ninety-five per cent of the work
ers and farmers answered yes to the
query do you believe in the right
of labor to organize and strike? ?"
Not many of the business men would
say "No" to that question, but when
asked if they were prejudiced
against radical unions not afffili-
ated with the A. F. Of L., they would
unhesitatingly answer "Yes, l am"
Many were led into saying that they
thought unions are alright unless
they start strikes" In other words
they subscribe to the class-collabo-
ration industrial peace policies of
Woll, Green and Co. But when it
comes to unions that have a program
of class struggle, of fighting the
bosses for higher wages and better
conditions, for abolition of the sys-
tenn of exploitation, they are class
conscious-they would like to see
the leaders of such unions as the
N.T.W.U.. electrocuted, without any
scruples about evidence or law.
Paens of praise to the Impartial
ity" of Judge Barnhill cannot con-
ceal this fact made evident through
six days of questioning Of nearly
500 veniremen-taxpayers of Nee
klenburg County. The state of BIT
ter hostility on the part of the
capitalist and middle class toward
the defendants, the N.T.W.U. and
the LID. added to the fact that
capitalist laws and capitalist courts
are designed to protect the inter
ests of the capitalist class, make
impossible an impartial trial in
Charlotte.

were guilty" The state eliminated
him with g peremptory challenge.
The reporter for the Times, Shap-
len, has been spreading the story
that the I. L. D. want to make mar
tyrs of the defendants for the sake
of propaganda. He is trying to hurt
the defense in every possible way.
He told newspaper reporters that
the I. L. D. and American Civil Lib
critics Union were in conflict on the
case. This, Arthur Garfield Hays
denied, and the next day the Times
said that Hays repudiated the de-
NAL. Hays had to again repeat his
previous statement, and the Times
reporter is exposed as malicious
liar.
The I. L. D. states again that it
Indignantly repudiates the lie that
it wants convictions, and brands this
lie as part of a campaign to injure
the defense and endanger the sup
port of the workers for these six
teen workers on trial. The I. L. D..
is doing everything possible to save
the 16 members of the N. T. w. and
return them to the ranks of the
militant labor movement. but it
must have the support of the work
ing class. The attacks of the en-
emies of the workers must not divide
the ranks of the defense. The work
ers must present united front
against the bosses and their agents.
