BOYLAN PLEDGES
EARLY PAY FIGHT
Subcommittee Member Says
Sentiment for Restora.
tion January /.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY,

A fight on the floor of the House
for restoration of the full basic salary
for Government employees as of jan
uary l will be started by Representa-
tive John j. Boylan, Democrat, of
New York, member of the subcom-
mtttee drafting the independent of
f1ces appropriation bill, which carries
the salary policy and other economy
provisions.
Boylan has sounded out the senti-
ment OF members of Congress who are
now In Washington, and especially his
colleagues on the Appropriations Com
mittee. He finds the Appropriations
Committee, as well as the Subcomn1it-
tee on the Independent Offices Bill.
strongly in favor of restoration of sal
aries on January /, and an over
whelmlng sentiment among members
of the House to start the new wear
happily for Government workers by
restoring their full basic legal salary.
Leaders Support Claimed.
Boylan pointed out that in his fight
ne has the support of all of the can
didates for House leadership and that
many Of the Democratic members
made the salary restoration an issue
In their campaigns, arguing that the
Government should set an example
for industry throughout the country.
To right what he terms "a grievous
injustice to thousands of Government
workers" Representative Mcleod, Re-
publican, Of Michigan, q member of
the House Appropriations Committee,
announced today he will offer an
amendment to the first appropriation
Dill when it comes before the House
for restoration of full basic salaries
as OF January 1-if the President
fails to take this action.
Finds Prices Up.
AFTER q careful study and a thor
ough investigation" stated Mcleod, ct
f1nd that the commodity price level
has advanced to the point where to
delay restoration of the pay cut until
next July would cause an unwarranted
degree of hardship and suffering to
many thousands Of Government en-
ployes.-
t'I hope and trust the Presidents
message upon the conyening Of Con-
gress in January will include Q notif-
cation to these faithful Government
workers that the sorely needed s per
cent of their wages will be restored
at once. If such action Is not taken,
I intend to offer an amendment to
the first appropriation bill to restore,
effective January /, the balance of the
pay cut and thereby prevent this In
justice"

Red Cross Life Saving and Swimming.
THE American Red Cross City,
Il Recreation Department 1884
Water Polo League was the most
successful ever to be conducted in
the state of Indiana. More than
$1,000 persons witnessed the fifty
six games played.
The Riviera Club won fourteen
straight games and scored sc
points to their opponents IA to
win the league pennant. Ellen
berger won twelve and lost two,
Longacre won nine and lost four,
Rholius won seven and lost seven,
Willard won six and lost eight,
Garfield won three and lost
eleven, Warfeigh Beach won
three and lost eleven, and Nc
Clure Beach failed to win game.
In picking the all-city selec-
tions, the boys were chosen by
their ability to play, the number
of games they have participated
in, craftsmanship, their team
record, and value to their team.
August Hook and John Moore
of the Riviera Club teamed to-
gether perfectly and outScored all
opposition at forwards. At CEN
ter Albert Rust of Rhodius gained
every rush during the season and
is easily the outstanding man on
his team.
Philip Reisler of Ellenberger,
who is considered the outstanding
water polo player in Indianapo-
lis, is probably one of the best
dribblers ever to play the game
in this territory. At one guard
Randall Willis of the Riviera
Club, veteran of the sport, cap
tanned, coached and led his team
to the city championship.
At the other guard James Mot
singer at Longacre park, former
Rhodius star, outplayed every OPP
ponent he faced during the sea-
son. At goal guard big Joe Klein
of the Riviera Club was easily the
outstanding guard in the city. He
made many sensational stops and
was a big factor in the success of
his squad in capturing the league
title.

of Long Race
Slender Chance Hinges on
Double Headers Today
and Tomorrow.
BY EDDIE ASH
TinneS Gnortn Fditar

The last big weekend Of the sea-
son at Perry stadium is at hand
and postponements that have piled
up have created two double headers
in two days. The Indians will battle
the Toledo Mud Hens today at 3:45
and 6:15 to close out the series with
Steve O'Neill's FASTENERS.
The Columbus Red Birds will in
wade the Tribe park tomorrow and
two afternoon tits will be staged,
the first at 2 o'clock. The Birds
are leading the eastern A. A. divi-
sion and are four games ahead of
the local Redskins. The Buckeyes
will be here for five battles, ending
Wednesday, after which the Tribe
will go to Louisville to pull down the
curtain on the 1884 schedule, play
ing four games with the Colonies.
Positions in Race
The chances of the Hoosiers to
land in the post-seaSon pennant
play-off with the Minneapolis Mill
ers doubtless will hinge on the out
come of the four games at the sta
dunn in two days, today and tomor-
row. In the regular eight-club race
the MillerS are on top, Columbus is
second, Milwaukee third, Indian
apoliS fourth and Louisville, in fifth
position, is one game back of the
Redskins.
Minneapolis is leading the eight
club race by five and one-half games
over Columbus in the runner-up
spot, and the Millers are leading the
western division by seven and one
half games over Milwaukee.
The Indians and the Mud Hens
were held idle by rain yesterday and
last night, and the six-game series
scheduled here was reduced to five
games, with Toledo holding an edge
of 2 to l on the three contests that
were completed.
Women Free This Evening
The Tribe has only a slender
chance of catching Columbus, and at
the same time the Indians also are
in danger of being overtaken by
Louisville. The battle for position
is filled with fireworks and some
lively action is promised in the bar
gain bills here this evening and to-
morrow.
Women will be admitted free at
both games today. One admission
will cover both conflicts at the "twi-
light-moonlight" offering. The
'Knothole Gang" also will be guests

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The Bar
ney Ross Jimmy McLarnin welter-
weight championship boxing bout
billed for tonight was again post
poned today because Of rain by Of
flcials of Madison Square Garden.
1t was the third postponement.
The big fight now has been re-
scheduled for next Saturday night,
Sept. Is. following a conference be-
tween the promoters, the boxers
and their managers. This decision
was reached here early this after
noon.
The promoters first suggested
next wednesday night, but Barney
Ross objected on the grounds that,
because of Jewish holidays, he
would not be able to train Monday
or Tuesday.
Both fighters will remain in New
York. Ross will work at Stillmans
gymnasium. while McLarnin has
yet to choose a training site.
Held up for two days by an inter-
mittent drizzle which lowered over
Manhattan and its environs, the two
athletes went through minor PAGES
last night to keep in condition for
the fight, which was originally
carded on Thursday night for fl
teen rounds at Madison Square
Gardens Long Island bowl.
Meanwhile odds on the fight were
shifting rapidly toward the cham
pion, who had been a 1877 favorite
until Thursday when the figures
dropped to 6-5 against McLarnin.
Now Ross is favored at 81.
The betting is to l McLarnin
won't stop Ross and 3 to l Ross
won't stop McLarnin.
