Keglers Down Hibbing.

The local All-Star bowling team
downed the Hibbing keglers by 100 pins

here last Sunday. The games were
well played with Ely capturing the
first heat by 8 pins, losing the second
by los pins and coming back to finish
off the third frame with 1877 pins
better than their opponents.
James Mitchell of the local team

honors and rolled PAL in the second
game for high individual score. Alton
Nord of Hibbing pressed Mitchell as he
scored 236 in the second game and
had a three game total of 585. Hibbing
captured high game team honors with
a 976 score in the second game Ely

Play was fairly even in the first
three quarters until Ely stepped out to
win the game in the final quarter

before the third period ended.
Ely sank two quick goals and a gift
toss in the opening minute of the
quarter to take the lead which they
held throughout the final moments Of
the game After taking "a to 10 lead,
Ely used stalling game that ratified
the opposition and the locals were able
to drop in three more pot shots be-
fore the game ended while Hibbing
garnered long field goal by Retica.
Gouze and Grahek carried the brunt
of the local offense while Banovetz and
Anderson played nice game at the
guard posts. Retica, flashy Hibbing
forward, was the outstanding player on
the floor scoring five field goals and
a gift toss to vie with Gouze for scoring
honors. The floor work of both Retica
and Gouze was exceptionally good.

The washington Board OF

to work Fundamentally for the
proposed $5,00O,OO0 Roosevelt

announcement that the original
plan for a coliseum was imprac-

BY the Roosevelt Memorial Asso-
citation for the stadium was ex.
planned at the boards first tail
meeting at the Willard Hotel,
with the statement that the
association had changed its plan
for the building because of the
size and contour of the island.
A wide variety Of subjects was
nm for discussion with the main
thought that the tax rate in the
District should be held to a
minimum. Joshua Evans, jr.,
president of the District National
Bank; E. C. Brandenburg and
Edward F. COIladay led the
speakers.
A request that the Board OF
Trade take a leading part in en-
couraging private schools to
locate in the District was voiced
by william Knowles Cooper,
chairman of the boards school
committee. The idea was scorned
by Mr.. Colladay, who said the

Pittsburgh Workers
to Hear Mrs. Wright
Scottsboro Mother in
Steel Town, May II

PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 20.---In-
dignant over the attacks on the Uni
ted Front Scottsboro defense cam
paign by the Pittsburgh Courier, the
Negro workers of Pittsburgh are pre-
pairing to turn out en- masse to greet
Mrs Ada Wright, mother of two of
the Scottsboro victims, when she
speaks here at the Pythian Temple,
2O11 Center Avenue, this Friday
evening, May 81,
Mrs. Wright's appearance in Pitts
burgh will give added stimulus to
the preparations for the local United
Front ScottSboro Conference which
is TO take place on May 27 at the
same hall Many Negro and white
organizations and churches have al
ready elected delegates to the con-
ference, and the attacks by the
Pittsburgh Courier, instead Of serv-
ing the southern boss lynchers as in
tended, have served simply to arouse
the Negro masses to the terrible
danger Of legal lynching facing the
boys as a result Of the boss terror
against the Negro masses and the
treacherous support Of that terror
by such reformist papers as The
Courier.
The Joint Committee of the In
ternational Labor Defense and the
League of Struggle for Negro Rights
last night issued statement on the
attacks by the Pittsburgh Courier.
The statement declares, in part:
"The slanderous outburst of Mr..
Vann of the Pittsburgh Courier
against the International Labor De-
Tense is an attempt to strike direct
blow against the nine young Negro
boys of Scottsboro who have been
sentenced to burn in the electric
chair, after shameful frame-up
and farcical trial"
The statement further points out
that "only a broad mass protest
movement will save the Scottsboro
defendants from legal lynching. II
the mass protest organized by the
l. L. d. does not continue, the same
fate will oyertake them as has over
taken dozens Of other workers In the

CLEVELAND, May 20.-A dead
lock is reported in the wage nego-
tiations between the United States
Potters' Association. and the Off
Gals Of the National Brotherhood of
Operative Potters, now going on.
The misleaders of the potters'
union are working with the bosses
to put ovre wage cut. The bosses
propose Is per cent cut, and re-
plying the officials called for Sc
cret wage conference. The purpose
is to accept a wage cut, but at q
lower figure than Is per cent. The
bosses are pressing them hard, which
accounts for the deadlock.
The union officials do not dare
to let the union members know what
is going on at the conference.

In various departments of the

fore the convention of the Brother

conspiracy to redues wages.
A careful examination of Mr.
Green's speech reveals the fact that
he actually praises those chiefly re-

ting that Green admits is going on
In his speech, which was loudly ap-
plauded when he called for resistance
to wage-cutting, Green said:
"On the one hand we behold the
