II RECALL talking with Andy Coax
ley more than few years ago about
a certain college pitcher Andy is
the former Athletics star, from the
days eof Rube Waddell and Eddie
Plank, who is coaching Columbia's base
ball talent with rare ability.
This fellow" he said, lis the best
Of them all He is one of the few who
can step into the middle of big league
show and still keep going"
He was referring to Owen Carroll,
who had won 48 out of SO starts with
Holy Gross. Carroll appeared better at
Holy Cross than Mathewson did at
Bucknell-than Sisler at Michigan
than Plank at Gettysburg College.
He was the scourge OF the East.
That was some time back And yet,
after being turned adrift from one camp
and another, it has taken the exHoly
Cross star all these years to hit his
stride
Traded to Brooklyn for Dazzy Vance,
the veteran, Carroll suddenly swung into
line with three victories and cluster
of well pitched games, up to anybody
standard.
What happened? Apparently a few
unexpected reverses and the faster pace
broke his early confidence and upset his
control.
Today, in the presence of Max Careys
cheerful smile, he is another pitcher.
Verbal and Physical Pressure.
The recent lively skirmish on the ball
field at Washington recalls the verbal
and physical pressure which has been
no small part of base ball and loot oaIl
above all other competitions.
Physical pressure is at its height ir
foot ball or in the ring, with hockey up
alongside.
The verbal pressure in foot ball has
been warm enough at times, although
in recent years it has been closely
watched by officials. but in base ball II
has always been much more pronounced
than the spectators ever guessed.
What the Yankees said to the Cub:
through the world series of last Fal
was never intended for polite ears
Hard riding of this type has alway.
been a part of base ball, but there are
times when it passes a point even
hard boiled ball player can stand.
Almost every promising rookie has tC
run this gauntlet of riding. Probably
no young player ever drew a roughel
passage than Ty Cobb when he frs
broke in.
The pressure finally reached point
where rival pitchers began dusting hin
off. Cobb broke up this method BY
bunting down the first-base line ane
then letting the offending pitcher have
his spikes or his shoulder as the pitcher
covered the bunt. This had an ex.
tremely discouraging effect on the bear
ball boys.

7 OUISVILLE, KY. May 3.-Nine-
teen thoroughbreds are listed in
the probable field for the $50 900
added Kentucky Derby Satur-
day. W. R, Goes entry of Ladysman,
Pomponious' and Pompoleon probably
will be the favorite to win the Church
i'll Downs feature.
Mrs. William Crump's Head Play,
after defeating smart band of Derby
eligibles in a mile race at the Downs
yesterday. was firmly installed as sec
ond choice. Head Play came out Of
the race with a cut on his left hind
leg, but it was not considered serious
The probable field includes Isaiah,
Charley o. and At Top. which ran sec
ond, third and fourth to Head Play,
respectively.
Charley o. left the post last and
closed big gap to finish third, while
Isaiah was rapidly firing.
loa Charley ley g. O. probably y will be third 3H5d
the same odds as the Catawba Stables
entry of Mr.. Khayyam and Good Ad-
vice.
OTHER probable entries are Sarada,
~ Brokers Tip. Kerry Patch. Trace
Call, Inlander, Dark Winter, ST.
lent Shot. Fair Rochester, Spicson and
Strideaway.
Silent Shot and Fair Rochester, good
mud runners, may not start II the
track is fast, but conversely, a fast
track may result in entry of two or
three Western eligibles not now con-
sidered as probable starters.
Col E. R. Bradley, whose horses
have won three Derbys, says he is con-
vinced Ladysman will win this years
renewal and that his own entry, Brok-
ers Tip, will run second. He did not
pick third horse
Other turf experts who watched yes
terday's race we're unanimous in belief
Ladysman will have considerable trou-
Bile defeating Head Play.
Though not discounting Charley o. s
excellent performance in starting last
and finishing third, they said Head
Play had much in reserve at the fin
ish and was not extended at all dur
ing the running. Head Play also
closed a big gap to overtake the
leaders.

RALEIGH, June 27.-The brac-
ket system for passing on the 3
per cent general sales tax to con-
sumers is specified in the rules
and regulations that must be fol
lowed by the merchants of the
state and which have just been
prepared and promulgated by
Commissioner of Revenue A. D.
Maxwell. The rules and regula-
tons made public today by Com
missioner Maxwell in an address
he made before the North Caro-
lima Merchants association IN
Winston-Salem, will hold good Tor
the month of July only, and will
be revised for August and sue
ceeding months if it is found ad-
visable to make changes in them.
The rules do not make it man.
datory for every merchant to
show the tax on every sale, as
MANY had requested. But they do
make it mandatory for all mer-
chanes to pass the tax along to
the consumers, with three differ
emit classifcations, and a different
bracket for each classification.
These three brackets are con-
tanned in Rule Is, as follows:
Schedule l. For merchants who
make no sales of less than II
cents;
From I cent to II cents, no tax.
From II cents to 40 cents, l
cent tax.
From SO cents to ss cents, 2
cents tax.
From 81 cents to $1.16, 8 cents
tax, and so on up, with fractions
of cents to be determined in ia
vor of the major fraction.
Schedule 2. For merchants hav-
ing sales of articles of less than
II cents with total of such sales
not exceeding 5 per cent in
money value of total gross sales
From l cent to 16 cents, no tax.
From II cents to 33 cents, l
cent tax.
From 81 cents to &C cents, 2
cents tax.
From 81 cents to $1.0O, 3 cents
tax.
On sales of more than $1.0O,
straight 3 per cent tax, fractions
of cents to be determined in favor
of the major fractions.
Schedule 3. To be applied by

ticles at II cents or less consti-
tute more than 5 per cent in
money value of the total gross
sales of taxable merchandise as
follows:

CHILD LABOR
LIKELY TO Be

Seen AS Result Of Appli-
cation Industrial Code
To Textile Industry

WASHINGTON, June q. CUP
Child labor in the cotton tex
tile industry probably will be eli
minated through application of
a code of fair competition, George
A. Sloan, President of the Cot
ton Textile Institute said today
at the first of the industry hear
ings under the national recovery
administration.
Sloan, recognizing complaints
which have been made since the
presentation of the industry's
proposed code said he and his
associates will be glad to deal
with the child labor problem.
"In the first place the setting
of a minimum wage at ten dol
lars would make hiring of chill
dren uneconomical," he said.

WlNSTON-SALEM, June 81
(UP).-A. j. Maxwell, state COM
missioner of revenue, laid before
a disgruntled convention of mer-
chants today an invitation to con-
test validity of the three per cent
sales tax.
The commissioners blanket in
vitation was extended to ANY
man or group of men who may
wish to spend money that way"
simultaneously, Maxwell firmly
advised the North Carolina Mer-
chants association that there IS
no escape from. payment of the
tax, and that the merchants sole
recourse lies in civil suit against
the state for recovery. .
The revenue commissioner, IN
outlining the new "bracket sys-
TEN" of collecting the tax, from
the consumer, pointed confidently
to an ace in the hole, an aged con-
stitutional provision preventing is
suance of injunctions restraining
the state from collecting revenue.
Briefly, Maxwell's explanation
was this: 49,. =,
A merchant desiring to contest
constitutionality Of the sales tax
must first pay the tax instead OF
attempting to enjoin the state
from collecting it. Then, his, con-
test must be confined to a suit TO
recover on grounds that the tax
had been collected illegally.
ShoSld the North Carolina SUI
preme court rule in one case, or
= series of cases, that the tax ac-
tually had been collected illegally,
the state would not be required to
refund taxes to all merchants.
Each merchant could be forced to
fight his own battle, an expensive
one, separately.

WASHINGTON, June ~ (Uf
General Hugh s. Johnson Off
cially will start President Roose-
yelt's Industrial Recovery machin.
cry today over an uncharted
course which appeared last night
to hold many pitfalls.
Public hearings will begin to-
day on the code submitted by the
cotton textile industry, in which
are embodied all the intricate
problems that have perplexed
Johnson and his aides for several
days. Thus will be inaugurated
formally the nations venture in
TO economic planning to put mil
lions to work.
In preparation for this import
ant event, Johnson, members OF
President Roosevelt's cabinet and
40 leaders of American industry
devoted yesterday to a survey
of the confusing problems which
have arisen.
The delicate issues which must
be met at the outset Of the hear
ing were disclosed last night
when leaders of the textile indus
! try met in a preliminary confer
ence to discuss controversy
over the so-called Stretch OUT
system whereby one workers
productive capacity is increased
| by giving him more machines to
handle. The administration is in
sisting that limitation be fixed
upon the number of machines
! tended by one worker, otherwise
labor will not be properly cared
/ for and production will go be-
yond bounds.
Likewise, it was learned the
troublous tariff question will be
injected by a demand from the
textile industry that it be given
additional protection in exchange
for shortening hours and increas-
ing wages. This is within the
power of President Roosevelt by
terms of the act.
AS final act preparatory to
the hearing today. Johnson last
night named an advisory commit
tee to represent the consumer,
It consists of three women and
two men and is headed by Mrs
Mary Dumsey, of New York,
daughter of f. H. Hartman.
The other members are Frank
Graham, president, University OF
North Carolina; Professor Will

cago; Mrs. Joseph j. Daniels, In
