Pittsburgh, Is 1t Really So?

THE Central Committee Plenum adopted
special resolution ON the need OF popular
izing Plenum decisions and its resolutions.
One of the means for it is to acquaint the
membership wit hthe content of the Plenum
resolutions.
Our records show that the Pittsburgh Dis
trict has not ordered single copy of the
PIenum pamphlet Towards Revolutionary
Mass Work.
The May and June issues of THE COM
MUNIST were special issues to popularize
the Plenum resolutions The June issue is a
special trade union issue taking up our trade
union work in light of the ECCI resolution
on lessons of strike struggles in the U.SA
1t is of special immediate Importance for the
Pittsburgh district Yet only so copies of the
June issue we're ordered. The same number
were ordered of the April and May issues.
We might even be compelled to stop the
sending of THE COMMUNIST, as none of
the previous issues have been paid for.
Pittsburgh is one Of the most important
concentration districts. The line and spirit
of the Plenum resolutions must be thorough
ly studied and digested by the Pittsburgh
District. The failure to order the Plenum
pamphlets to populsrize the issues of THE
the serious obstacles in mcbilizng the Party
membership for the carrying out of the Pc
mum line and decisions
y We might also mention the fact that the
Pittsburgh District has not contributed
single article to the Plenum discussion in the
Daily Worker.

The article given below shows how the deci
sons of the Plenum Conference on Literature
be carried out in practice. The Conference
discussed ways and means of attaining MASS
distribution of our literature. II outlined
ganizationaI measures to make it possible to
reach millions of workers with literature.
The comrades in Chicago have used some
very original ideas in applying the new line on
literature distribution in practice. One scheme
they used, that of using one pamphlet intcn-
siyeIy for many different purposes during
campaign, is outlined below.
A FEW days ago you asked to write some Of
n the experiences in the distribution OF the
ScottSboro pamphlets in connection with the
campaign, and am herewith sending you how
we worked it here, which can be of some help
in planning mass distribution of other literature
in connection with campaigns as they are
planned and carried out
Pamphlets Used For Speakers Outline
When we first planned the campaign the i'm
mediate problem was of sending speakers to
organizations, and these speakers had TO be
supplied with outlines. Most of the comrades
do not remember exactly the facts of the case
and the further developments. So instead of
preparing an outline, it was decided to order the
Scottsboro pamphlet, which contains the material
necessary for every speaker.
Mass Organizations Order the Pamphlet
Then we thought it best to make known the
facts of the case to the workers in general and
therefore, at the first conference held, the ques-
ton of distribution of this pamphlet was taken
up The same evening we had orders for nearly
1000 copies from representatives of different
organizations as well as from individuals The
pamphlets were sold to them at cost price.
Pamphlets Replace Ribbons on Tag Day
The finance committee in preparing for the
tag day, considering as to what to use for tags,
decided to use the pamphlets instead of flowers
or buttons although it costs little more, but
in return it was considered that the contribuI-
tons will make up for this When any individual
gets pamphlet instead of little ribbon, he is
bound to make bigger contribution.
The entire campaign was conducted on the
basis of popularizing the facts regarding the
Scottsboro boys and we found this the best
medium So far we have ordered and paid for
II 900 copies; 5000 we're sold prior to the tag

these, there are some left which will be sold in
the course of the campaign which still continues
and perhaps more will be ordered in the future.
Linking Up Pamphlet OrganizationalIy
with the Campaign
1t is important to take at each campaign when
planning it as to the methods of mass distrbu-
ton of literature that is connected with the
campaign specifically. And because this was
done I found for the first time SO many people
participating in the sale of this pamphlet.

Wherever you go you find workers selling these
pamphlets.
Educating Those Who Contribute
L also think that for tag days especially it
should be considered at all times to use some
kind of pamphlet directly connected with the
campaign for which purpose the tag day is
carried instead of buttons or flowers This way
the contributor also is made acquainted with the
purpose of his contribution. There is no doubt
that better methods of mass distribution of our
literature can be found

They couldn't even get man on all three teams.
 Southern California, the great est team of this year and maybe last year if we consider the scores they ran up against opponents. Only that tumble in the first five minutes of the Notre Dame game hurt their morale or Notre Dame would have been on the short end of another box-car figure score, They took the Irish bubble and busted it so bad that Army cashed in.
 T have clippings on the Notre Dame Georgia game to the effect 5hey have passed, and double pass ted, sprang reverses and spinners, shooting the end around behind line that Georgia couldn't touch How many men did they place? One on first and second teams, two on third. Lucky Johnny Baker! Ii he hadn't kicked that goal he wouldn't have rated tumble.
 When you think of the game Kilday and Seeker, Price and Summerfelt played for Army; of Bullet Lou Kirn driving through the line for forward passing 50 wards to Tschirgi of Navy: of Hin- kle carrying the mail for Bucknell; Captain Futile showing how to handle center for the Navy; Ship wreck Kelly of Tennesseee: Barron of Georgia Tech, srampeding right through Pennsylvania on nothing but a fighting heart-you just feel hurt if you have any sense of fair ness of justice at all.

ALABAMA LEADS MAJOR ELEvENS IN POINT TOTAL
Came Through F ootb a Il Season with Highest
 Score Tn Nation

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 18.-Alaba- ma was in the background of na- tional football during the season just closed, but came through with the highest total score in the na- ton.
 Starting the season with new coach, a new system and only one regular from the team of the pre- vious year, the Crimson Tide lost to Tennessee early in the season. The team gained it's footing after that encounter, however, and de- feated Vanderbilt, strong aggre- gation which downed Ohio State, in the final conference game of the year.
 Tide Scores 360 Points
 The Tide, three times invited to the Rose Bowl, scored 360 points this year in 10 games. Close behind was Tulane, whose national title hopes were shattered by the Tro- jans of Southern California, with $50 points.
 Southern California was the only other big team to score over 300 points for the season. The Trojans' total was 303. Opponents of the Green Wave were able to score 56 points and those of the Trojans 5G.
 n. Teams playing Alabama scored 57 points.
 Tennessee allowed opponents to score only 15 points, which was the low record for 1881 football on that point. Fourteen other leading teams were scored against less than Tulane or Southern California.
 Opponents of Cornell were all lowed by 20 points; those of Co., lumbia 26; Michigan 27, Harvard 29, Colgate 34, California 35, Pitts burgh 37, Purdue 39, Northwestern 40, Notre Dame 40, Stanford A, Duke 46, Kentucky AS and South ern Methodist AS.
 Teams scoring fewe rpoints than their opponents included Virginia, V. M. T., Virginia Poly, Washing ton and Lee, Sewanee, Georgia Tech, North Carolina State, Flor ida, Mississippi, Clemson, Princeton Navy, Illinois, Indiana, Chicago, Iowa an Wisconsin.
 Wisconsin's opponents outscored the Badgers only five points and the Navy boys were beaten seven points. Iowa scored but one touch down the entire season, that one against George Washington.

"I sympathize with MT. Purdue Rooter in his plaint: What does it take to make the A. P. All-Ameri- ca team?'"
 So saying, a voice from Dela- ware takes up the cudgels and en- tertains us with this thorough an- alysis of the football situation.
 T have nothing to say of all the fine boys they mention but how about the many fine fellows left
 off? Some of them, on small un- successful teams, have had the worst of it but this year a lot of the big time stars are off because they did their best work at the end of the season after your piakers had made up their minds and weren't looking for new stars but confirmation of pre- conceived opinions.
 T don't see many games but l watch the statistics. I don't get the glamour and personality of the stadium show so get an earful of this:
 What happened to Glenn Ed wards of Washington State? Ed player has put him in front His work on offense and defense has helped to keep weak team from being routed. Against all the west ern teams he has been all there.
 At Tulane he dropped through the line so fast he forced two fum- bles and recovered them both. Pretty alert fo-- d 235-poand tackle.
 Last year Edwards was on a champion team and very much in. This year his team was out of it. But I don't think his work this year suffered the least init. Do you?"
 (Ed's note: Edwards was A. P. All-America tackle in 1930, but started slowly this season and sim ply did not get the votes. Best tackle in Pacific Northwest was Schwegler of University of Wash ington.)
