CHICAGO HOTEL STRIKERS
SHOW NEED OF UNION
Failure To Stop Wage-Cut Due to the Lack
of Organization

In the Blackstone Hotel they cut
off one weeks vacation after the year
was over. The year was worked and
each worker had to sign his name
that he hasn't any claim on the week
coming.
They cut us three days month
We worked these three days but did
not get paid. The workers say 1t is
ten per cent cut.
No more days off--seven days a
week When they told us no day off,
we got together and got our day off,
and this is a good example that the
workers should stick together.

On the 28th they gave us a notice
that from the 18th of September our
wages was cut.
When the last cut took place. the
help from the kitchen got together
and served notice that we don't take
no more cuts and next day they
fired one cook and scared the
workers that they would get another
one in their place. The rest gave up
their demands.

CLASS LINES DRAWN IN

DUBLIN, Nov. CBy maid The
bankers and industrialists of the Irish
Free State have organized a White
Guard Army to support the former
lCosgrave governments policies Of
compromise with British imperialism.
The Fianna Fail government of De
Valera not only tolerates this horde
of armed ruffians, largely composed of
pensioners of the notorious Royal
Irish ConStabulary-the hated Black
and-TanS, but sends Civic Guards
and the detectives of the Criminal
Investigation Department to protect
it in its raids upon workers districts.
On October Both, this Fascist mob
1000 strong descended upon the town
of Mallow. clubbing and terrorizing
the townspeople, many of whom are
supporters of the very De Valera who
affords these White Guards his Of
ficial protection.
Fianna Fails liberation OF this Cos
grave White Guard Army gives the
lie to De Valeras protestations of
sincerity in his efforts to free Ireland
from British rule forever. It again
shows that only the united workers
and peasants or Ireland can free their
country by chasing out the Irish eapl-
talists together with the British i'm

To-day's Sport
 Parade
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stan Correspondent

New York, May 1O.--(UP)--- There seems to be a definite trend these here days toward bringing all sports indoors where the custom CTS, safe from the clements. may view the proceedings from the comfort of an armchair.
 Football, tennis, polo golf, and track, to mention few, already. have been brought in out of the rain and cold and heat and placed under q roof. And now lacrosse has been placed under shelter. New York will get its first glimpse at x-lacrosse, as the inside game is known, in Madison Square Gar den tonight.
 With the possible exception of yachting and free balloonins la crosse, of all the sports. is the hardest to picture indoors. For this old Indian game of modified murder normally is played on a field about the size of the state of Rhode Island. You need only to see lacrosse as she is played once, to understand perfectly why space and lots of 1t, Is essential.
 When 24 men start swinging hickory handled butterfly nets around their heads, caring not one whit where the chips may fly, room is downright necessity. And then. too, it's sorta nice to have plenty of space so the wounded can crawl off about mile or two on the side and lick their wounds.
 Those who know tell me that box lacrosse Is just like plain old fashioned lacrosse, only more so. If that's true it's plan to see how that box part crept in: the players stand swell chance of leaving the field of action in one. As in out door lacrosse there is net or cage. and ball to toss into 1t for score. The winner Is determined by the number of goals scored. But l am told that those teams which concentrate on knocking opponents and the ball for goals. are rated the highest in public esteem. The perfect box-lacrosser. of course, is one who can knock the ball and m adversary for a goal at the same time.
 The game. understand, Is al most as pleasant to listen to as to watch. It seems that the whistling of the racquets through the mir (the strlngs). the cries of the play CTS (the wood windsy. and the poom- -poom given off sby noggins when rapped smartly by the sticks (the drums), creates an effect sim liar to that of a symphony orches- tra in full blast.
 Incidental noises are furnished by the clang-clang of ambulance bells, the rrr- -iiii--pppp of antisep-- tic bandage and the low moans of friends and relatives of the con testants; like Greek tragic chorus.
 Local promoters have reserved several boxes from which to view the game. If its rough enough there Is n good chance that New York will find itself represented in a box-iacrosse league. It Is rumor- ed that the promoters, unwilling to trust their own eyesight. have rigged up several devices to record in black and white just how stren- uous is the game. One of the de- vices is a clever little thing that will show the mean average blood- shed per quarter. Another Is sound contraption to record all cries of anguish. And still another photographs and measures the bumps as fast as they appear on the players skulls.

This group of ball players--1i in the party--has been working East since it's arrival in this country and has given a fine account of itself during It's Amer ican trip. It is the best baseball team that ever came from Japan, In the. opinion of those who have seen many of the Japanese teams durin gthe past ten years. Takeshi Esuji will be in the box for the visitors. He's the best pitcher on the squad and helped materially to bring the championship to Ja- pan to his university. Tho team is a well balnaced one, alert in the field and stronger with the bat than other teams which have appeared on Yale field. Int Capt Sekiguchi at shortstop, Rikkio has an infielder of big league propor- tons. The American profession al team which visited Japan last summer found him to be great baseball player, more than the equal of any . infieider on the islands.
 Rikkio's first game over here was with the University of British Columbia and the Japanese were leading S-6 when the game was called off in the fourth inning be- cause of rain.

RING GOSSIP
BY BILL HIGGINS
COURTNEY READY FOR LARRIVEE

After requesting several post . ponements because of boils, la grippe, etc, George Courtney, re- formed Oklahoma cowboy, has served notice that lie is now ready and willing to exchange greetings with our own Leo Larrivee.
 The show, featured by these two nationally known fighters, was originally billed for date late in March, but because of the afore- mentioned ailments on the part of the Okiahoman, delay after delay was requested. Ordinarily pro or two enforced postponements bout seems different, so different, in fact, that fight followers here abouts are now of the opinion that Courtney has a very wholesome respect for Larrivee's ability and would not agree to enter the ring with him unless he was In tip-top fighting shape. All of which seems plausa ble enough and, to us, indicates that quite a fight Is in prospect for Thursday night.
 The Courtney-L -Larrivee bout has attracted a lot of attention locally and throughout the state and, as If to confirm the opinions of local and state sports writers and fol- lowers of boxing was listed In u review of the standout fights of the week in nationwide press stories published yesterday.
 According to word passed along today by Edouardo Curley. general factotum of the Waterbury A. C.. our old friend "Sharkey" O'Rourke will experience one of his busiest nights in many moons working on the gate at the Arena Thursday night. Or in other words there is Il healthy advance sale with the demand for ducats increasing each day.

 There will be no wrestling show at the New Haven Arena this week. A herd of elephants. some clowns and other legitimate cir GUS performers having taken over the huge show place for week have caused Jim Downing's hu' man pachyderms to confine the showing of their antics to other places.
 The circus Is being given 10 raise money for the New Haven Regis ter" vacation fund for needy chil- dren and if we can believe Dan Mulvey. sports editor of that pub. llcation, the show will be well worth a trip to New Haven.
