should not be missed. Early in the

The writer is inclined to give the
visitors the edge in this game after
watching them out-class Foley and
Upsala. And, bear in mind that

active, bareley succeeded in over
coming Upsala 17-15 while Melrose

them over Sank Centre. The best

are the three musketeers of cham

brief experience as Independent
players. In case you have forgotten,
I will inform you that this renown-

team which can stop these flashy
offensive stars and also the bril-
liant Baumgartner and the ever
reliable Frank Matchinsky, can
stop almost anything. Melrose and
Sank Centre clashed twice last
year, Melrose conquering 22-14 up
there and losing 27-26 down here.
Melrose will have a distinct advan-
tage in that they can get the tip-off
with amazing regularity and don't
be surprised if theyascore several
times on tip-off plays as they were
wont to do last year.
There is still another interesting
angle to consider when deciding
whether it will be worth your while
to witness this feature contest.
There has been a lot Of discussion
as to which team possessed the best
playing coach and there should be
a real, duel between Olson and
Baumgartner. Both mentors are
phenomenal basket shooters and
floor artists extraordinary. Having
seen both star in action quite fire.
quently I'd give nay vote to the Mel
rose coach because he is more ac-
curate at the foul line and a more
dangerous shot from long range.
However, it will be a duel well
worth seeing and the game itself
gives every indication Of develop
ing into a thriller. Because the To-
Gals captured the fracus at Melrose
doesn't necessarily mean they will
win here. The Melrose players are
well acquainted with the peculiar

UNIONS DECIDING
RAIL WAGE POLICY
Press Told Conference of Fl
Organizations Is Getting
Started on Problem.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 1o.-The pre-
lirr,naries out of the way, the Nations
2l railway brotherhoods and unions got
down to the business today that brought
them to Chicago, the formation of a
policy regarding wage reductions.
The meetings Of the 1900 general
union chairmen from all over the con-
try were closely guarded, and the only
information came through press con-
ferences with D. B. Robertson, head of
the Firemen's Brotherhood and chair
man OF the entire meeting.
This noon Robertson told reporters
that the men were at last getting start
ed on the vital problem of what to
answer when the individual railroads
ask them to accept voluntary wage cuts
of 10 per cent.
Many of the leaders had been con-
ferring since Monday and all of the
general cnatrmen were here yesterday,
but so far the men had been perfecting
an organization and hearing reports.
The last of these, and the report which
brought up the wage problem, was the
account OF what happened when labor
leaders and railroad executives met in
New York last month. 1t was then that
the roads informally asked the men to
accept wage reductions and save the
carriers from economic ruin"
The report that Daniel Willard, presi-
dent of the Baltimore iA Ohio, would
address the union men was declared by
Robertson to be entirely without foun-
dation." willard had previously re-.
fused to discuss the matter.
Robertson doubted, he said, that any
agreement regarding the wage question
could be reached by tonight.
