MOTOR PRODUCTS
MEN WON'T TOUCH
BRIGGS MATERIAL
Fine Solidarity With
10000 Detroit Auto
Strikers

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 26.-While
the strike of more than 10000 auto
workers at four plants of the Briggs
Manufacturing Corporation continued
today with militant mass picketing,
the shop committee of the Motor
Products Corporation, an auxiliary
of the auto industry, today notified
the company that the workers will
refuse to produce material for the
Briggs Company as long as the strike
lasts. The 1000 workers Of the
Motor Products Corporation them
selves went out on strike last week
against wage-cut, gaining an over
whelning victory last Saturday,
Splendid Solidarity
This splendid demonstration Of
solidarity came after meeting of
Motor Products workers who janlmed
Germania Hall last night. More than
700 of them joined the Auto Work
ers Union, which led their struggle,
and paid initiation dues. The work
ers showed tremendous enthusiasm
for building the union and decided
to organize sub-locals in each de-
partment. Raymond and Valid spoke
for the union and Andrew Overgaard
for the Trade Union Unity League,
to which the union is affiliated.
100 Per Cent Organized
The night shift of the Motor Pro-
ducts plant met this morning and
made similar decisions. The entire
factory is organized 100 per cent.
The picket-line in the Briggs strike
was greatly strengthened this morn
ing by the addition of the workers
of the Waterloo md Medium units,
who yesterday joined those Of the
Highland Park and Mack Avenue
plants in the fight against wage-cuts.
At the Mack Avenue plant the po-
lice attempted to drive the strikers
away, but failed because of the mil
itancy of the mass picketing. The
Auto Workers Union is leading the
strike.
Present Demands
Yesterday the General Strike Com
mittee elected a Negotiations Com
mittee, consisting of IS workers from
all four plants, including men and
women, Negro and white. Demands
were formulated for each department
and submitted to the bosses. A wage
scale committee OF As is also working
on it's demands.
In an effort to prevent the strike
from spreading. the Murray Body
bosses sent home their workers last
Wednesday Sentiment for strike
action is growing, not only at the
Murray Body plant, but in Ford's
and many others, and the influence
of the Auto Workers Union is in
creasing by leaps and bounds.

Mass Picketing at One
House Wins Strike at
Another, Brownsville

NEW YORK.-The mass picketing
at 226 Barrett Street. Brownsville, is
getting results. The landlord of 234
Barrett Street, prominent in the land
lords association. and the man who
has been telling the 226 Barrel land
lord not to settle with the strikers,
was faced with strike of his own
tenants Wednesday.
When he saw preparations for
real struggle, he yielded and settled
for: So and 81 reduction in rent, rec
ignition of the house committee, and
no evictions.
Meanwhile the landlord at 226
Barrett agreed to call off two eyictions
scheduled for yesterday and to meet
the strike committee last night. The
house committee calls for q mass
picket line today at 10 am TO strike
the final blow and win this strike.

Never-never will I forget when
friends arranged for her to tele-
phone me all the way from Italy
to New York when a Venetian
newspaper man brought her the
news that poor Ernie Schaaf

she is such a real madonna. Re.

years, seldom went near a church,
and thought I knew so much of
the world when I headlined in

But when I heard her on the

I went to church afterwards

wrapped up in championship

ring for good then.

Buoy Tagging Spirits
Probably these family tourna-

Woodmont Country Club puts
on an annual affair that follows
this general family line. It's the
Observation-Disclosures Mems tourney
which is scheduled to take place
this Sunday. Quite a tubful of
enthusiasm is steamed up over
the event and TIE losing side is
host to the victorS at dinner.
John Connally, new green's
keeper at the Army-Navy Country
Club, is a graduate of Syracuse

GOLF MATCHES IN THE DISTRICT ARE ADVOCATED
MODERN STARS
EQUAL HEROES
Of PAST
BY PAT ROBINSON

] NEW YORK, July 12.-With
| all due respect to the glories Of
the past, the writer ventures to
say that the old heroes Of the
diamond never saw the day they
could surpass the feats Of the
boys now playing ball.
It seems to be a grand old
American custom to glorify-even
deify-legendary heroes at the
expense Of our present crop.
There are people who would de-
nounce anyone who had the
temerity to suggest that George
Washington ever drank anything
stronger than tea or that he
cussed the hired hands, although
authentic records assure us he
did both.
So, too, we are told that our
current crop of ball stars never
can compare with the old timers.
Matty, Bender, Overall, Waddell,
Combs, joss and others Of the
pitching fraternity are supposed
| to have been far beyond the best
we have today.
This is bunk, pure unadulter-
ated bunk!
Remember Plank?
I remember Eddie Plank, for in
stance. A great pitcher, Of course.
but ask Connie Mack If Plank was
half the pitcher Lefty Grove is
today. And what other old timers
had anything on Bill Hallahan, OF
the Cardinals, or. Lefty Hubbell,
Of the Giants?
Old timers love to cite Babe
Ruth's record Of pitching % score
less innings in world series, but
Babe himself will tell you he
wasn't much of a pitcher, and
certainly never one to compare
with many Of our current crop.
His curve was a joke, he had no
change of pace and all he did
was buzz q fast one by their ears.
That's the tip-off on the kind Of
hitters they were.
Old timers will talk you blue in
the face about Matty and Three
fingered Brown. I'll admit they
were great, but remember they
pitched with a dead ball which
was kept in use even when Scuffed
and they could doctor it if they
felt so inclined. Imagine what
Hubbell, or Grove, could do today
with such a ball!
| Schumacher Good Too
I recall Matty's pitching as II
it were yesterday and he had
nothing, for instance, that Hal
Schumacher Of the Giants hasn';
got today. John McGraw has
said he wouldn't believe there was
another Matty even If he saw one
and that's exactly the attitude Of
all the oldtimers.
But let me assure you Matty
was neither more educated nor
more intelligent than Schu.
macher. He was no faster and
he had no more stuff. Give Hal
a few more years and we proba'
bly, will be telling our grandchil.
dren the same line Of hooey the
oldtimers are now telling us.
There was one great exception
to the oldtimers-the late Miller
Higgins, manager of the Yanks.
Hug always admitted the current
stars were inst as good as any in
the past and he often remarked
that he never saw as great a
fielding infielder as Leo Durocher,
now of the Cardinals.
AS for the hitters-the old
timers had good ones surely. But
were they any better than Klein.
Simmons, Ruth, Gehrig, and
Foxx are today?
You know the answer,
