Curtis Signs 'DiEsy'
Weldon Hart, sports editor Of the
Austin, Tex, American Statesman,
tells me the story Of the signing Of
Dizzy Dean.
It was five years ago ct San An
tonic that Don Curtis, Cardinal scout,
said to Everttt E. Ellis, veteran army
sergeant and baseball umpire then
stationed at Fort Sam Houston, "What
about this big. daffy Highlander
down here with the Public Service
team?"
Hes just q big country boy. and
he's as dizzy as his nickname, but he's

How much shall give him to sign

been advised by Pancho Snyder, then
manager Of the Houston club, OF the
Texas League. st. Louis farm, to
take peek at the big fellow.

Curtis took the advice and the $50
bill, saw Dean pitch that afternoon.
and signed him the following day.

Dizzy tells Of that game himself.
Curtis hid in the grandstand, and
I didn't know he was there. We were

After = day Of almost complete

East and West.
Topping the American League pro-
gram was q ble-header In New

This twin, bill marked the opening Of

were the other pairings.
In the National League, the world
champion New York Giants began
their last western tour at Pittsburgh
with q four game lead over the Chi
cago Cubs who opened q series with
the Boston Braves. The other con-
tests found the Brooklyn Dodgers at
Cincinnati and the Phillies at st.

hopes.

Monday, the Athletics pounding over

BANKED them with six hits but the

BIRTHDAY BALL
Finds Labor Everywhere
Lining Up For Its
Success

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Labor
this week pushed forward, rallying
its nationwide forces for participa-
ton in the great national Birthday
Ball for the President under the chair
manship Of William Green as head of
labor's advisory committee, which
serves as unit under the general
national Craftsmanship of Col Henry
L. Doherty.
Invitations have gone to all labor
editors asking them to accept mem
bership in a national labor press COM
mittee as a part of the labor divi-
sion.
Already central bodies all over the
country are going into action in
preparation for the great celebration
on January 80. 1t is emphasized by
the officers of the labor division that
it is desirable that labor cooperate
with other civic and fraternal bodies
wherever possible and that distinctly
labor celebrations be held only where
it is impossible to cooperate with the
groups of the entire community.
Where it is finally found that no
other groups will take the lead, it is
hoped that labor will take the lead,
rather than allow a default.

DELAY ACTION ON
PRISON-MADE GOODS

By A. F. of L. News Service.
Washington.-The National Indus
trial Recovery Board has designated
its chairman, S. Clay Williams, and
Sidney Hilman, member, and Linton
Collins, division administrator, to
conduct negotiations with FERA to
see if the latter can utilize prison
labor garment production in the relief
program, so as to remove prison-made
clothing from the open market.
This was in pursuance to the re-
Gently published report on prison
labor competition made by special
committee under presidential execu-
tive order, in connection with the
shortening of the work week in the
cotton garment industry.
TIE committee reported prison pro-
duction was endangering the status
of this industry and the wages of its
1866 900 employees.
The board put off until it can
gather more data and legal and other
opinions, the committees proposal for

constructing the penal systems Of the

ports, action on the proposal that the

under the prison labor compact be
taken away or be made to carry the
words "prison made"

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Throw-
ing down the gauntlet to the Chamber
Der of Commerce Of the United States
and other big business organizations
fighting the 3O-hour week, the Amer
ican Federation of Labor announces
that 30-hour week measure similar
to the Black bill will be first on it's
legislative program to be submitted
to congress in January.
Other measures on the labor pro-
gram include an industrial disputes
act that would outlaw company un-.
ions, extension of the recovery act
with equal representation of labor and
industry on all boards and code au-
thorities, unemployment insurance,
old age pension legislation and restor-

Labor offers the 30-hour week as
partial remedy for unemployment" J"
President Green said in announcing
the federation's program. "Only
through reduction in the number of
hours worked per day and per week.
so that the amount of work available
may be equitably distributed, can the
millions of workers now idle be ac-
corded an opportunity to work and
earn decent living.
"This unemployment remedy pro-
posed by labor" Mr.. Green continued,
lis in direct contradiction to the de-
mand of individual industrial leaders
and manufacturers associations for an
increase in working hours. How it is
possible to take up the slack of unem-
ployment through an increase in the
number of hours worked per day is
beyond human comprehension.
The time has arrived for all classes
of people including the owners and
managers of industry, to face stern
economic facts. Industries covered by

Labor is firmly convinced that the

Washington.-Overcom the GUS
tomary seasonal declines, employment
in the building trades held steady in
November, according to reports from
local unions to the American Fedora
ton Of Labor. It was the first No
vember since the federation started
collective reports in 1928 that there
was no decrease in employment in the
industry. Between August, and at
the end of October, there was an in-
crease Of 10000 men at work in the
building industry in the country as a
whole.
In all trades, the number of union
men employed dropped l per cent. In
the building trades, however, where
even in the boom years of 1928 and
1929 there were decreases affecting
3 and / per cent Of the membership,
respectively, from the preceding
month of October, there was no
change.
"Unquestionably this gain, for
it really is gain" said Presi-
dent William Green in comment
ing on the figures, reflects the
efforts of the federal housing
commission to ). break the
deadlock in the building industry.
"For that matter the record Of en-
ployment in the building trades show
that since August, when the federal
housing administration actually got
under way, the trend has been up

in October 2 per cent more found

lost their jobs; in 1880, 4 per cent; il
1881, per cent; in 1882, 2 per cent
and last year, l per cent.
"Stated little differently, there
were 673,435 building tradesmen
working in August in the country

and 1912 in October.

ROWE vs. HUBBELL?

Whether you figure the Tigers have the edge because of their terrific hitting or that the Giants are bound to win because of their steadier and more experienced pitching staff, the 1884 battle for basebalIs highest honors should furnish some of the briskest action since Pepper Martin conducted his sone-man raid against the Athletics in 1881.

Neither was picked even to land in the first division, and there's nothing so stimulating in sport as the triumph of a long shot.

 The answer is simple. Going into their last home stay in the last month of the race, the eight regu- lars were batting an average of ,324, 3l points higher than they did last year
 Only one player, Erwin Fox, was below his final mark of last year, and he only by four points, .284 against his final .288. The rest were above the 300 mark.
 The greatest jump was made by Jo Jo White, who finished last season with an average of .252, and started September with mark of 326ls a gain of "A points. Even at
