MOOSE DEFEAT LEGION s TO l.;
 WORTH IS WILD
Wildness of Vet Hurler in First Inning Gives
 Moose Game

Worth's wildness in the first inning, coupled With three hits in a row, gave the Moose a five run lead and enabled them to win from the American Legion 6 to After the first frame Worth held the Paps in the hollow of his hand and was hit safely but one timc in the last six innings.
 Grummett's home run in the sixth inning gave the Vets their only run off Claud Erskine who tanned the Legion sluggers, hold ing them to four hits and strik- ing out 12.
 Ten Free Trips
 Worth gave 10 men free trips to the plate-five by the pass route and five more hit with pitched balls. It was generosity that brought about his downfall in the open ing stanza.
 With one out the Moose filled the bases on two singles and a walk, with Twigg, Livingston and Erskine roasting on the bags. Pass es to J. Schmitz, M McSpadden and a single by Killewich scored Twigg, Livingston, Erskine, J. Schmitz and Little Mac. Worth frightened up from then on, and famed Lowe and Nello for the second and third outs. He was al- most unhittable for the rest of the game, although walks and hit batters had him in holes frequently Erskine's single in the fifth was the sum of the Moose hits after the first.
 Their sixth run came in the sev. enth on Twiggs walk, Erskine's free ride to first when he was hit by a pitched ball, wild throw by Sam Baker after he made 2 fine stop of Little Macs hot grounder and another batter, Kille- Wich, hit by pitched ball.
 The Vets were unable to find Erskine for enough hits to score except in the sixth when Grum- mett's high fly to the top of the little green house was good for the circuit.

KIPKE FACES BIG
 ORDER REBUILDING
 WOLVERINES LINE

ANN ARBOR, Mich, July 21- Coach Harry Kipje faces a dif- ficult task this year in building an eleven to represent the Uni Versity of Michigan.
 All he has to do is to find a fullback who can deliver a yard or two when it is needed, and a line that will hold the opposing plungers.
 Jack Heston and the yearling candidate, John Regeczi are re- garded as the outstanding candi- dates for the fullback position. Tackle, guard and center positions are left open in the line by grad uation. Willis Ward, giant negro, is the outstanding athlete becom- ing eligible for play. He is an end,

he would break down. and that happened also. It is impossible to run with top results 800 meters for three consecutive days.
 I cannot say who will win the 800 meters at Los Angeles. The names Genung, Cobb, Eastman, the Englishman Hampton and the Italian Tavernari are the besr, and one Of them will break the ribbon.
 Thomas Favorite For 1900 Meters
 Since Ladoumegus has been dis qualified, it is difficult to say any thing about the prospective win ner of the 150O meters. I consider the Frenchman as my favorite, al- though there are others in Fin land of another opinion. Here one does not believe in his nerves. There is reason of course for such doubts. In Amsterdam he ought to have won, but his fussiness spoiled everything. He made the mistake of competing with Purje for the gold medal, and the result was the usual one. "A deal be- tween two means a box on the ear for the third" Well, Jules is out of it.
 Europe has other good Milsrs to put up against the Americans. The best of them I consider the Eng UShman Thomas to be. Ptirje' has certainly run with better results last summer, it is true, but he has not the qualifications by which big matches are won. He wins already on the track, not in the lasJ straight. Thomas on the othe' hand always keeps cool and cal~ culating, as Englishmen always do. He can accommodate himself b the most violent speed, he can also lead-but he contents him. self with remaining behind and only puts his enormous power on the table at the beginning of the last straight stretch. I consider it probable that Thomas will win.
 The Finn Larva has the same qualifications as Thomas, the diff ference is however, that Larva's tension is not so sharp as the other mans. At the present mo- ment, the Amsterdam victor is an enigma. If he manages to get into form, he will not come back from America without a prize With his long stride it will be easy for him to follow others. On the last round he hurries up, appar- ently without any exertion, to the leaders. His speed is not grea', but the going is so easy and with

KID TEAMS BATTLE TWENTY INNINGS TO SCORE 67 TALLIES

According to information breath lessly brought into The Empire of flee late yesterday afternoon, the Starr Hill Stars walloped the Gas tineau Avenue Giants yesterday by a score of 36 to 3l. But it took 20 innings to turn the trick.
 The boys say they are looking for good umpire to handle their games, a strong, healthy man who can stand the gaff. They also want scorer, preferably one with an adding machine.

 The newspapers here state that Venzke and several others have run with tremendous results over there in the winter. I take it that the States are placing their great est faith in Venzke. I have seen his photograph. To judge by it, that man has all the bodily quail fications.

POWER DEMAND
REGISTERS GAIN
By RALPH F. COUCH

Demand for electrical power is in
creasing and supplying additional
ground for belief that fall upturn
in manufacturing activity is at hand.
The demand or consumption of cleo
trio power is virtually equivalent to
production. Reports on production,
issued weekly by the National Elec-
trio Light Association, show gains in
each of the last three weeks. Produc-
tion rose to 1,465, 100000 kilowatt
hours Of energy in the week ended
September 3. That was an advance
Of 28,000,000 hours over the produc-
tion of the preceding week which was
reported as 1,437, 100000 hours. In
the week ended August 20 production
was 1882 100000 hours and in the
week of August 13 it was reported
at the low point of 1,415,000,000 kilo-
watt hours.
The gain in power output is small,
but it is the change in direction of
the production curve that is bringing
encouragement.

BRUSH PLANT
In LeavenwOrth Prison De-
prives Free Men of Jobs

New York.-H. NJ Rinehart, as.
sistant secretary of the American
Brush Manufacturers Association
filed petition against the installa-
ton of automatic machinery at Lea
venworth federal penitentiary with
the Shannon congressional committee
investigating alleged government
competition with private business.
Mr.. Rinehart said the large output
of the Leavenworth factory was a
gross injustice to American labor,
and that criminals are assured en-
ployment while employees of legiti-
mate brush manufacturers are thrown
out of work"
He contended that with high-pow-
cred machinery the Leavenworth
brush factory was "endeavoring to
monopolize the brush market in gov
ernment departments. He added
that Legislation made it compulsory
that federal departments buy brushes
from the prison factory as long as
the required stock was on hand for
delivery. He asked that legislation be
enacted to restrict prisoners to hand
labor"
II think you are absolutely right,
said Representative Robert F. Rich
of Pennsylvania, member of the
committe, sin so far as it is wrong
to give preference to men in penal
institutions at time like this, when
men are out of employment on the
outside. Those in charge of prison
institutions should refrain from u.s.

Representative Samuel B. Petten-
gill, of Indiana, also member of the

that "the honest worker should be
given preference over the criminal ir

UNITED CIGARS
Charged With Switching
Huge Cash Fund

New York City (ILNS)-Revela-
tions of the methods of great corpor-
ate organizations are coming to the
surface in relation to the receivership
of the United Cigar Stores Company,
biggest retailer Of non-union cigars.
Information coming to Internation-
al Labor News Service is that the
receiver, named August 90, imme-
diately cancelled all store leases
throughout the country. Almost i'm
mediately, it is said, these leases were
renewed at figure averaging so per
cent of the original lease price.
In the ten days following the re-
ceivership the common stock de-
scribed downward and upward
curve with sales rising to tremendous
proportions.
On the day before receivership the
stock opened at $150, closing at 81,
where it opened on August 20, to
close at three-fourths, with sales Of
279,400 shares. On August 80 the
stock went down to one-half, with a
movement off 76,800 shares. The
price ranged around one-half to five
eighths continuously for more than a
week, with heavy movements of stock
continuing on the basis of so cent
prices until about September 5, when
the price again moved back up to 81
and $1.25. Market observers declare
that within the period of this fell

cleaned up, so that liquidation brought

Nor is that all. Cancellation of the
