Defensive Sensation Of Club.
A S undoubtedly remembered by CaI

A S undoubtedly remembered by Capt.
tai fans, Travis was no great
shucks last year when he broke in
the big show as regular. He ranked
eleventh among the American League
third basemen with a fielding mark Of
.94l.
He showed no great improvement in
Spring training or even at the outset
of the current campaign. But during
the last two weeks, and especially dur
ing this tour Of the West, the nearly
22-year-old Georgia boy has been the
defensive sensation of the club.
His mark, as q result Of the i'm
provement, has jumped to $50. OF
the six errors he has made in 156
chances this season, four were COM
United in three consecutive games
during the middle Of May.
Even Bluege, the old meSter of the
hot corner. has put his stamp of ap-
proval on Travis as a fielder. As
matter of fact, to Bluege may b
attributed most of the lads success.
First. Ossie drilled him in the funda-
mentals, even while Travis was
battling for Bluege's job.
BIuege Sees Travis at Top.
NOV, with Ossie established as the
Nationals regular shortstop, he
continues the schooling right on the
ball field. Travis big improvement has
dated from the time Harris installed
Bluege on short.
"All he needs" asserts Bluege, els
a little more sense of timing on his
throws to become q really good third
baseman. He has learned to go to his
right and is getting better at it every
day. I wouldn't be surprised to see
him lead all the regular third base
men in the league this year, now that
Kamm is gone from Cleveland. They
say this Marty Hopkins of Chicago Is
great fielder. If he plays enough
he may be at the top, but Travis
should at least be close"

NAVY CREW CHIEF
CALIFORNIA RIVAL
Conceded Best Chance to
Upset Bears in 'KeepSie
Regatta Tomorrow.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DOUGHKEEPSIE. N Y, June II.
- Once mort most Of the great
college crews are gathered on
Il the Hudson for the time-hon-
ored Poughkeepsie Regatta tomorrow,
and once more rs another big eight
of little KY Epright, CALIFORNIA;
Golden Bears, against the smallest
field in more than q decade.
Seven boatloads will take to the
water at pm, Eastern standard
time, amid the same carnival sur
roundings, before the same gay crowds
that have been thronging this little
city on the Hudson once a year for
81 of these famous gatherings. AL
though every varsity but Columbia
thinks it can win, the old rivermen
shake their heads.
They see again the Bears. stroked
by curley-headed Gene Berkenkamp,
sliding down the river in the dusk,
outlasting the field with that short.
devastating stroke OF theirs, just as
they did last year and in 1882. Cali
fornia hasn't been beaten In the var
sity since an astonishing Navy eight
pulled q Jimmy Braddock in 1891
and won one for the East. There
was no regatta in 1888 because OF
economic stringencies.
Navy May Pull Upset.
IF THERE'S to be another upset OF
that kind this year, it is Buck
Walsh's Navy eight, stroked by burly
Joe Hood, that draws the eyes Of the
experts. A big, smooth-pulling crew,
not laying back so far as most Of the
sailor fleets in the past, Nays varsity
lost out in the Eastern sprint season
only to Pennsylvania, fastest of the
crews in this region up to 2 miles. IL
has lots Of power and stamina, which
the experts fear will be wanting in the
best Pennsylvania crew in years when
the bulldog test comes in the drive
through the last of miles.
Rusty Callow is high on his Quakers,
though, and he says his stroke, Lloyd
Saxton, is the best he ever coached.
So keen and eager are these Penn
youngsters to lift themselves back into
the Poughkeepsie spotlight that they
unracked their boat against orders,
while Callow was in town yesterday,
and took a paddle on their own.
AL Ulbrickson's Washington Huskies,
conquerors of California by a few feet
in a Pacific Coast regatta in April,
haven't quite lived up to that promise.
The sophomore boatload that was the
varsity then was given way to COM
bination boat of seniors, Juniors and
sophomores, with the sophomore John
York stroking the big eight.

n TEW YORK, June 17.-What
IN kind of fellow really is this
VI James j. Braddock, messenger
- boy, printers devil, long
shoreman, prize fighter, now heavy
weight champion of the World?
Take a cross-section of all the dig,
even-tempered, slow-spoken, honest,
faithful family men you know, that's
one picture of the 29-year-old Irish
man who dazed the flstic world by
whipping Max Baer in Madison
Square Gardens bowl on Long Island.
Think of some one you know, some
one with a big, wide-open face, clear
eyes, not particularly smart, but a
bulldog in his devotion to his wife
and three youngsters, always having
a tough time making a 60 of 1t. but
never quitting and too proud to ask
favors he can't repay. That's another
picture Of him.

came to a standstill. He didn't mind
working, but he didn't want charity.
The c. w. A. seemed the way out, and
on December Is, 1888, he was made
foreman of project No. 7, construction
of a sewer. That gave him $24 a
week. Twenty men were put in his
section, and 1t was recalled that Brad
dock spent more time swinging pick
than he did at his duties as boss.
Project No. came to an end in due
time, and on April 4, 1894, Braddock
ended his work for the C. w. A., which
had now ceased to exist.
Tougher Than Ring Fights.
A ND now the Braddock family felt
IA the pinch of real hunger and
Braddock was put to fighting battles
with himself that he never will have
to duplicate in any ring.
The fight with Corn Griffith-iron-
ically enough. a preliminary to the
main attraction in which Max Baer
won the tile from Primo Camera
Melted him $3.50. There were debts TO
pay, back rent, grocery bills. 1t did
not last long. And in the long hot
Summer that followed, the Braddock
family decided it was no use to con-
tinue in the old half-starved way and
that it would be better to give up.
A few weeks after Braddock had
gone on relief, boxing promoters, look
ing for an easy mark to fatten the
reputation of John Henry Lewis,
picked him for the sacrifice. Brad
dock trained on hash and caused con-
siderable anguish by. knocking out
Lewis. He vas paid $225 for doing it,
but he continued on the relief rolls.
He knew from bitter experience how
uncertain a future could be rested on
so slender a roll of money.

SOCIAL SECURITY LAWS
DRAFTED BY PRESIDENT

From a 10000 word report
embodying plans for dealing
with FIVE phases OF the social
security problem. President
Roosevelt tonight drafted his
own orders TO congress for a
wide program of social legisla-
ton.
As outlined in authoritative
sources, the plans sent to the
President by his cabinet COM
mittee included:
Unemployment insurance,
financed in part at least, by a
payroll tax; the federal govern
ment to handle the funds and
the states TO administer them.
The details to follow largely the
Wagner-L Lewis bill of last year.
Old age pensions divided into
at least two, probably three
sections, the first to give joint,
federal-state aid TO finance
monthly gifts to persons already
over 65; the second to compel
employer and employee 10 con-
tribute to funds which would
give persons over 90 annuities
when they reach that age; the
third, if approved, to permit
persons to buy such insurance
against want in old age
Aid for dependent children in
which the federal government
would help the states to enable
mothers TO care for their child
rem and disigned to bring about
a COT rdination and upbuilding
of standards for such care. lex

THE SILVER LINING

Those who predicted a few
months ago that the United
States would shortly be flooded
with silver, due to the Treas
ury's purchasing program, will
have to revise their views, ac-
cording to Rene Leon, the well
known monetary expert Ac-
cording to Mr.. Leon. little silver
is available anywhere on earth
today. The result is that de-
mand must soon exceed supply,
with rising prices following.
The outlook, consequently
for renewed activity in the min
ing industry is better. Stimu-
lated demand for silver at a
profitable price, will put men to
work, cause heavy capital in
vestments, and lead to general
industrial expansion.

RESULT OF SUCCESS
THRU COOPERATION

An interesting example Of
what agricultural cooperatives
can achieve, when well man
aged and Loyalty supported. is
presented by the Dairymen's
League Cooperative Association
Of New York, a pioneer in the
Eastern field.
Due TO the aggressive. con-
structive work OF the organiza-
tion. milk prices did not tumble
in the Leagues area until about
a year after the values OF other
farm products had slumped
heavily. And when under the
pressure of great economic for
ces, the milk price structure did
crumble. the League didn't take
time out for a crying party,
but at once went TO work to
remedy conditions. The result
OF that is found in the fact that
according TO November reports,
the milk price average is practic-
ally back to the level OF Novem-
Der, 1881, before the worst of
the depression hit the milk shed
This doesn't mean that the
troubles are over for League
members. The League will
continue TO work toward effect
ing n better balance between
the cost OF milk and other costs.
In the light of past experience
it Is not too much to forecast
that these efforts will likewise
succeed.
Other farm co-ops. dealing IN
all manner OF commodities. have
shown similar records. This is
not due to luck. il is the oonse-
quence OF knowledge, OF enthu-
siasm, OF hard work, and OF faith
in the cooperatives by members.
When all work together for
the common good, better times
result.

OFFICIAL FIGURES SHOW
THE RECOVERY GAIN

New York.---Trade analysts
and statistieians who have sum-
married business reports issued
at the turn of the year, and
have coupled these with state
ments made by the highest
officials in Washington, agree
that recovery has advanced far
beyond the point generally rec
ognized, and predict that 1885
will bring heavy gains in reem-
ployment unless Congress enacts
legislation causing a business
relapse.
Close analysis of President
Roosevelt's message to Con-
gress in which be said there are
3,5OO,OO0 employable persons
now on relief caused trade lead
ers to make a highly favorable
revision of their views on unem-
ployment conditions. 1t is
conceded that unemployables,
the aged, the infirm and other
wise incapacitated, should not
be included in making estimates
of normal employment. They
cannot work, regardless of how
great the demand for workers.
The President placed the
number of idle employables as
less than half what previous
official estimates had reported,
and one-third of the number
carried in unofficial reports.
This means that recovery,
figured in terms of employment
has reached the point where a
strong pickup in the durable
goods in lustries would absorb
all employables.

STATEWIDE SERVICE OF
NATIONAL REENPLOYKFNT
SERVICE TO EMPLOYERS

Ray Gilbert, State Director.
OF National Unemployment SER
vice, gives out the following:
The employer who uses the
National Unemployment Ser
vice is assured of getting effici-
ent workers. We have quail
fed men and women applicants
for commercial and professional
work, domestic service, skilled
and industrial work, farm labor
and general labor:
Applicants after registration,
one more thing is required in
order that a worker may obtain
the advantages of this free en-
ployment service. He must
keep his application active, that
Is he must let the employment
office know at periodic intervals
that he still wants assistance in
finding work He can do this
by calling at the office each
month. 1t is necessary that
employment a plications be
kept active in order that en-
ployment Office may fill requests
Tor workers promptly. II an
employer calls for a carpenter,
he wants one today, not next
week. The employment office
has to know which of the regis
tered carpenters are still avail
able and who are actually look
ing Tor jobs; and they must
have the applicants correct adj
dress, change of address should
be reported to them Immediate
'ly
The business of the Employ
ment Service is to help workers
lind Jobs. In order to perform
these functions effectively, we
deem it highly important to get
the best qualified worker for
every opening which an employ
er calls upon the service to fill.
This is the sole basis on which
we offer our service to employ
ers. In filling their vacant jobs
through the Employment Ser
vice, the employers are not on
ly performing a useful public
function, they are also certain
to get men and women workers
who are best qualified for the
jobs offered.
But many workman has said:
why put in my application at
the employment office? They
haven't enough jobs to 90
round" That is true at the
present time. There are not
enough jobs to go roune, and
the Employment Service can
not make jobs. 1t can however
help to speed up the process of
finding jobs. In recommend
ing competent men for positions
the employment service can
and does curtail the time spent
job seeking.
Clearance of information be-
tween widespread offices makes
it possible for the unemployed
miner in Greenlee County to
find other work which he can do
in an entirely different occupa-
tion and perhaps in another
country. 1t can help the work
man who has been permanent
ly displaced from his job by
the introduction of machinery
to find employment in some
other industry which can use
his previously acquired skill.
The local public employment
service is located at Casa Gran
de, Arizona, and Dan J. Sulli-
van, the manager says, we are
now equipped to serve any en-
ployer..that may need qualified
employee in Pinal County, and
we urge all men and women
who are seeking employment,
