PITT CHANGES
CAME PLANS

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. 81
G.N.S).-Changing battle plans
to conform with the cold wind
and unfavorable weather condi-
tions, Minnesota and Pittsburgh
braced for their intersectional
football battle this afternoon.
Pitt was favorite to defeat
the driving game of the GopherS,
but Coach Jock Sutherland Of
the eastern eleven indicated that
his running and passing game
would have to be altered in view
of the northern weather.
Sutherland shifted. his lineup
somewhat, putting Rocker at left
end instead of Baxter and Hoel
at left tackle instead Of Mere.
dith. Munjas was to get the call
over Hogan at quarter.

SCRAP
BEST IN DIXIE

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 21.-Two
strong contenders for the South
eastern Conference gridiron
championship will battle each
other this afternoon in the fea-
ture contest in Dixie.
Although Alabama has been
tied by Ole Miss and Tennessee
was beaten last week by Duke,
their championship aspirations
are undimmed, and their battle
this afternoon is expected to
somewhat clarity the race in the
newly organized conference.
Injuries have crippled both
teams, but Alabama and Ten
nessee still boast powerful and re-
sourceful elevens, with the Vols
slightly favored.
Another spectacle of more than
parochial interest will be the
game here between Tulane and
Georgia Tech, although both have
suffered defeat by conference
rivals.

ON SPOT TODAY

PITTSBURGH. Oct. 21.-Notre
Dame is on the spot today. Only
a decisive victory over Carnegie
Tech will convince the fans the
Irish are capable of holding their
place at or near the top Of the
football pack.
Notre Dame football prestige
and Hunk Anderson's job are
both at stake. They will rise or
fall together. A defeat by the
Skibos today would cost the Irish
the great football gates they have
drawn in other years, a loss no
college is likely to face with
equanimity.
Should the Irish fall before a
team that could only exc out a
3-to-0 victory over little Xavier
College, Hunk Anderson might as
we'll start hunting for another
coaching berth, it is felt.
It would be a mistake to under
rate the Irish because Of that
scoreless tie with Kansas or that
mere 12-to-2 victory over Indiana.
It was not so much the weakness
Of Notre Dame, but the strength
of Kansas that caused the tie.
Nor should one forget that
Carnegie Tech has more than
once upset the Irish apple-cart.
Tech has always had what 1t
takes to annoy the Irish and this
year under the able tutelage Of
Harpster they probably will put
the Notre Dame defense against
passes to a real test.

STARS
ARE CREAM
Of CROP
By SID KATZNELL


Sandlot football coaches prob
ably would give. their entire for
tune for a backfield combination
Of Fee" Colliere, Speed" Hoff,
Jake Lewis and Babe Manette.
These brawnieS are the cream
Of the crop. Incidentally, that's
saying a thing or two, as Wash
ington possesses excellent and de-
ceptive sandlot backfield per-
formers.
Colliere is the most expert
enced, having performed bril-
Iantly with practically every first
rate sandlot and semi-pro eleven
in this city. Fee" first came to
the limelight playing with Gonzaga
High several years oack. He dis
played uncanny ability as a field
general and punter. Later he
continued to star with the Stan
tons, Terminal A. c., Mercurys
and Mohawks. At present, Col
liere is calling the signals for
the Maryland A. C.. in addition
W dAOAA1S Ill COdCAAA4AS.
Hoff Is Marion Star
Hoff is gaining considerable
ground for the Marion A. c., an
unlimited club of the newly or
ganized National Capital League.
Speed" as he is known to many,
Is a dangerous broken field rum
ner and power on the defense.
Jake Lewis was a one-man team
while attending Business High
about three years ago. He's as
fast as a deer and as tricky as
o magician. Jake is wearing the
Nercury'S colorS.
Babe Manette is why the Sea-
man Gunners tied the Marions
last Sunday in the National Cap
ital League game, 1913. His
stellar performance was some
thing for sore eyes. Manette is
Q husky fellow, very fast and
durable. He can plow the line
like a steam roller and can cut
down the opposition like a lawn
mower as a blocker.

NEW YORK. = Commodity prices

response to the Roosevelt silver buy
ing program.
Cotton, sugar, were particularly
strong.
For two weeks, commodity prices
were sagging as Roosevelt main
tanned the gold bid at $3401, demon
strating that the Roosevelt rising
price structure is dependent upon
continuous inhationary stimulation
by the Roosevelt government.
It was, partially, to give the stock
and commodity markets another in
lationary dose that Roosevelt auth
orized the silver buying program.
It is significant that while whole
sale commodity prices we're weaken
ing during the past weeks, retail prices
were rising.

Roosevelt to Buy
Silver IN Further
Initiation Moves
Though Amount Small,
Purchases Continue
Initiation Drive

WASHINGTON. Dec. 22-Givlne
indication that the Roosevelt gov
eminent is steering toward ever
greater initiation, Roosevelt today
invoked the powers given him by
the recent Thomas Amendment to
the Agricultural Emergency Act,
and ordered that the United States
Treasury buy all the silver mined
in the United States or its posses
sions at 641a cents an ounce.
This price is 81 cents above the
present market level. This means
added profits for the silver mine
owners. At the present rate Of pro-
duction, the government will spend
about SIS, 4S0,00o year for silver.
which will be turned into silver dol
lars and bullion.
The purpose of this latest act of
the Roosevelt government was de-
fined by Roosevelt as follows:
"To assist in increasing and
stsbilizing domestic prices, to
augment the purchasing power of
peoples in silver-usins countries
(and), to protect our foreign
commerce against the adverse Eff
feet of deprecated foreign cur
rencics."
From this statement it is clear
that Roosevelt's silver buying is Z
continuation of the same initiation
airy purposes that are behind his
gold buying.

Johnson Sneers at
Men from Breadlines':
Says Pay Too Big
By SEYMOUR WALDMAN
DAILY Worker, Washington Bureau)

WASHINGTON Dec. 22.-There is
every probability that the Civil Works
Administration wage scales ranging
from zoe an hour in the South, to SOC
in the North, for maximum 30-hour
week will be draStically cut to CO.
incide with the even lower wages
being paid under many Of the NR.A.
codes.
It was said at the White House to-
day that CWA. wages would be
slashed if they are out Of line with
those being paid under the codes.
Earlier today MIRA. Administrator
General Hugh S. johnson launched
campaign to bring down C.WA.
wages to near the starvation point.

johnson. this morning characterized
the NR.A.-C.W.A. wage differential
situation as absurd"
But it is up to the C.WA. AL
can do is to call their attention to
the situation" said johnson. He con-
sidered it ridiculous" that C.W.A.
employees, ''nen from the bread
lines" should be paid more than
these normally employed in industry,
In fact the General continued, the
code wages are supposed to represent
the utmost that industry can afford
to pay.
Harry l. Hopkins, Federal Erner-
gency Relief Director and C.W.A.
Administrator, this morning pointed
out, in answer to johnson, that the
average C.WA. wage in the South is
about 81 a week, taking time out for
bad weather. he>said that workers
In the South, mostly Negr5es, were

that The determination of the Hitler
