There have been a great many
instances where the workers have
not been paid for their labor due
to the failure of the tenant grower
to realize from his crop. In most
these cases a shipper or wholesaler
contracts with the tenant grower
for the marketing OF his crop, and
provides funds in advance or at In
tervals for the expenses OF plant
ing and harvesting and often for
living expenses Of the grower. The
shipper or wholesaler assumes no

Cops Defeat Merchants

Cops Defeat Merchants Another hurler was uncovered in the ranks of the Naugatuck police department baseball team yesterday as Wilfred Evon crawled up on the tussock and pitched the blue coats to 1929 win over the Mer- chants at Recreation field.
 It looked rather bad for the forces of Jack Adamson in the early stanZas, when the Merchants, hit ting behind Frank Shea's pitching, unleashed batting barrage to se- cure five run lead. The gend- armes, however, probably had been listening to that Tigers Tanks affair on the radio last week so five runs meant little or nothing at all to the preservers of law and order.
 Tomorrow, the bananas, peach and pear ricketeers will face the Jacksonville A. c. at Recreation field, and on Sunday, the Union City Falcons will provide the oppo- sition for the gentleman Yclept Ly- skiewcz and his merry oafs.
