Hooray! Hooray! Our Red to the heights,
When he, like Lee, undaunted by the fight,
That all the Raymond Hies had in shooting left and right
Trying to in the pinches.

As hard and fast they kneO ho0 to try and the

For good old Adolph Raymond, a0ho provdes that
Each genr that the Hazies take the tJoorboards
Hoorcy! Hooray! The boys going right
So aUeU indeed that AdolpHs smile aUas bright,
When evem Red Gladney brought the ball from out of

To score his first basket of the season.
Before the game halfway played Red almost scored
again.
When passed the ball to him. but took it back
for then,
1t proved to be rival who just couldn't count to ten,
But thought Red just spectator
Hooray! Hooray Our Gladney scored twice more,
to the floor,
He would have kept running only closed the

Just bofere the battle
So Adolphs going to bake cake to memorize the scene
That brought him JOY when boy of his team proved

TWO GAMES WITH
ANS0NIA NEXT
FOR NAUCATUCK

Naugatuck, Feb 5-The Nauga-
tuck High school basketball team
will have comparatively easy going
this week for Wednesday night it
meets the Ansonia High school
quintet at the local 'Y' and on Sat-
urday night the team journeys to
Ansonia to play return match.
Ansonia is not rated highly and it
is expected the locals will have no
trouble in taking them over each
time if they continue to play as
they are now playing.
Many borough residents feel
Naugatuck despite it's poor start is
now the best team in the valley
and some claim it is the best team
in the state. The locals certainly
displayed nice work Saturday night
when they trimmed Warren Hard
ing High here in convincing style
before a large crowd, 1926.
High Scoring
1t was a walkaway for Nauga-
tuck which showed fine team-play
and nifty shooting. The fact that
Tuckey, Edmonds, Scally and
Nauges each scored 10 points or
better shows how the locals were
playing. AT one time Naugatuck led
Harding 30-G.
Coach Foley inserted substitutes
when Nauga;uck was lar ahead or
the score might have been even
more one-sided. The locals play
Crosby in Naugatuck next week
and are out for revenge for the I'M
merciful trouncing the Blue and
White handed Naugy on the local
floor. Crosby has gone back since
that time and the locals have i'm
proved at least so per cent.
One of the pleasant factors about
the game was the fine work of
Nauges at center who scored II
points. Each game tends to indicate
the Nauges is capably filling the
weakness at the center position and
if he continues to improve the To-
Gals will have little to worry about
in this particular.

were overwhelmingly -administra-

these resolutions were referred to the

Minutes Of Hotel Managers Meet SE'oW
Many Schemes Used to Trim Workers

During the Cleveland strike In 1929
leaders Of the Geneva Association
sent scabS to work in the struck res
taurants;' they also sent strike break
ers to the Atlantic City strike last
year
But seeing the developing miiitancy
N. r. A. starvation codes, the hotel
owners became frightened. They saw
that the hotel and restaurant work
ers were organizing into a union OF
their own chooSing-ths Food Work
ers Industrial Union-and were pre-
pairing to fight for better conditions.
Something had to be done. The old
Geneva Association alone could no
longer sidetrack the fighting spirit OF
the workers. So the Hotel Owners
Association decided it must irnme-
diately federate all the cooks and
walters fraternal organizations into
one big company union federation.
This was accomplished following the
first code hearings.
Heading this new company union
federation are such worthless as Mr..
Oscar Boomer, head of the Waldorf
Corporation, Mr.. Hitz, leading exec

Englehardt, Schatz and other hotel
owners and stockholders.
Bribery and Coercion
Bribery and coercion are the meth
eds used by the leaders of the Guild
to put over their strike-breaktng
policy.
IF you don't join up with the
Guild and pay 0 cents per 5eapita
your members can have no Jobs
That's the way the leaders OF the
Guild put the proposition to the
fraternal organizations which later
came into the ranks Of the company
union federation.
The Guild organizers had access
to all hotels and were able to fire
whom they pleased. Workers were in
many cases forced to join the Guild
by the hotel management. 1t Is re-
ported that the hotel owners donated
$25, 200 to the Guilds organizational
fund.

split the ranks Of the Party, assisted
in working up the frightful sellout

calls for no increase in pay and no
shortening Of hours. This agreement
they, with other leaders Of the Anal
