ganize their employees into this company union
outfit.
See the War Is On.
The reason why the a LIS is making this
attempt to build up its decrepit organization,
known throughout the lumber industry as a
company union outfit, that was organized dur
ing the war to prevent strikes and to speed
up production of lumber for the war, is be-
cause at present many lumber mills like the
Bloedell-Dolovan Company have their own
company unions, which do not work as cunning
" and insdously as does the A LIS, which is
composed of old-time labor takers, American
Legion men and bosses.
The L outfit has been watching the strug-
giles of the lumber workers and they see that
the conditions of the workers in the lumber
industry are intolerable that the workers pre-
fer to starve while they fight the bosses for
better conditions, than to starve and keep
producing at breakneck speed and with wage
cuts.
The a LIS see that the workers in the lum-
Der industry, who have a glorious tradition of
struggle against the lumber barons, have reach
ed point where they might as well go down
fighting, than be kicked around by the bosses.
The I.W.W. mas completely gone over to the
camp of the bosses, and cannot fight in the
interests of the workers The takers of the
I.W.W. have done exactly the same as the
takers in the A. +. Of L., he.raypg the work
ers on every occasion, and the workers see this
every day.
JOIN the Lumber Workers Union.
There is but one answer which the lumber
workers can give, and that Reorganization
into the National Lumber Workers Union,
which is fighting Industrial union, embracing
every section and category of the lumber in
dustry, an Organization of the rank and file
workers. which fights militantly in the inter
ests of TIE working class, anG is affiliated with
the Trade Union Unity League, the American
section Of the Red international Of Red Unions
The National Lumber Workers Union calls
apon every worker in the Lumber industry TO
organize industrially, into the National Lum-
Der Workers Union, through rank and file
control and set up their shop MILL camp and
departmental committees of rank and file

VICIOUS wage cutting, terrible speed-up and
even worse working conditions than they
already had are the methods by which the lum-
present crisis. try to force the workers to carry
the whole burden of the depression.
The workers begin to resist. The first strug
gle ION a small scale) against these cuts was
in Kalama Washington, when the workers of
the Blue Ribbon Products Company, went out
on strike against 20 per cent wage reduction
and the attempt of the bosses of the shinge
industry to unload stock buying proposition
upon the workers, thus to take the remainde
of their meager wages away from them.
The National Lumber Workers Union, while
fighting side by side with these workers, point
ed out that this was but the beginning and
they must organize industray into the MI.

Der industry, because the other workers will
meet like fate and must take the offensive
before the bosses develop their attacks. And,
surely enough, the lumber barons have extend
ed their attacks to other sections of the in
dustry.
IS Per Cent Cut.
Recently the workers in the Boedel-Donovan
Lumber Company received per cent wage

GET AWARDS

EMMTTSBURG, Md, Dec. g.
The board OF athletic control of
Mt. st. Mary's College awarded
letters to twenty members of the
1880 football squad and the stu
dent manager. AS sign of con-
fidence in their ability if they
had played this season, the IN"
was voted to Dave Wolfe, Joe
Lynch and Tom Brew who were
prevented from participating in
the schedule by injury and sick
ness. All three were lettermen
last year and there is no doubt
in the minds of the members of
the board that they would have
been regulars this year as well.
Seven members of the squad
are seniors and will graduate
next June. Election of a captain
to lead the 1891 team will be
held within few days.
Awards were made to the fol-
lowing: Captain Jerome Ryscav-

more difficult with each passing
season. The general quality Of the
play is improving steadily in all
sections of the country, and more
top grade players are bidding for
recognition. ...
This observer has been guided
as largely as possible by personal
observation. That is, whenever
the choice lay between player
he has seen and one who has
been recommended, he selected
the former. OF course, several
of the selections, particularly
among the linemen, have been
governed by expert opinion, alto
gether too strong to be ignored.
For the first string back
field, Frank CarideO of NOtre
Dame, Bill Of NOtre Dame,
Pinckert, of Southern Cali
fOrnia and MacaluSO Of Col
gate ha = been chosen. Hewitt
of Columbia, EIlingsen of
Washington State, Stennett
of st. Mary's, and SavOldi Of
Not-e Dame compose the re-
serve quartet.
Carideo is probably the most
talented quarterback ever de-
veloped by Knute Rockne, to
whom the quarterback post is the
most important on the team.
Carideo is an exceptionally keen
Strategist, and the direction Of
an all-star backfield combination
would be an assignment designed
to show off his talents to the
very best advantage.
No ball carrier can achieve dis
tinction without the assistance
of an accomplished blocker and
interferer. and that's where Marty
Brill qualities. He's paved the
way for most of Schwartz and
Savoldi's long runs this year, and
that he can also carry the ball
himself was demonstrated against
Pennsylvania at Franklin Field a
couple of weeks ago. Pinckert,
veteran player, is hailed as the
fastest and shiftieSt ball toter on
the Coast and his long runs have
carried Southern California to a
place near the top in the grid
iron scramble.
Macaluso, of course, needs no
recommendation. He's the power
runner Of the East. and its high
est scorer. More than that, he's
maintained top form in every
game, a truly great player under
any and all conditions.
Only Hewitt among the re-
serve selections needs an ex-
PLANTATION. That he hasn't
received greater publicity Is
due entirely to the weakness
of his supporting cast. No
back i'm the East is more YER
satiIe, and his play against
Cornell, when he beat the
Red MeT. almost unaided,
was the standout individual
performance OF tine EaSSeEn
season.
Fesler and Maffett are the first
string end selections above
host of talented performers
Fesler used as a back on attack
has been the best wingman 1r
the Western conference for two
seasons, and Maffett demonstra
ted his quality to New Workers ir
the N. Y. U. game month ago
Together with Catfish" Smith
at the other wing, he completely
checked the potent. off-tackle
running game of the Violet, ano
it was his sensational catch Of q
forward pass that produced the
games winning touchdown.
