Lewis Sees Fewer Strikes.
Lewis told reporters in Pittsburgh
he believed there would be great
diminution of strikes as soon as en-
ployers recognized the "inalienable
and constitutional right" of labor to
organize
''As look back on the general mat
ter Of strikes, would not say they
have lost their potency" Lewis said,
"and would say most of them have
been over the right to organize. Once
this right has been recognized then
there will be great diminution of
strikes, for the problems of labor and
capital can be settled at conference
tables"
In New York Matthew Woll vice
president of the American Federation
OF Labor, called for a "reuniting Of all
organized labor forces in America un-
der the constructive leadership of the
federation"
Woll expressed hope that Labor day
would mark the passing away of the
clouds of destruction" which. he said,
now shadow organized labor in Amer

Committee for Industrial Organization

their best effort, the Colonisls
came back at the start Of the final
period and, led by Sampson. stampeded
to their only score Starting from
their own 29, Sampson ran and passed
the Colonials to the Rebels %. where
he uncorked pass to Bob Faris. who
made remarkable catch on the goal
line and plunged across.
1t wasn't important but the Rebels
bounced right back and voided this
score with touchdown, plus an extra
point, to make it 27-6.
In the final analysis, Ole Miss had
too many guns for the G. WIS. whose
offense more and more seems to be
wrapped entirely in the sheer in
dividual brilliance of young Sampson.
Little Vic did everything in the wav
OF moving the ball for the Coloniajs
and definitely established himself last
night as one of the best of Washing
tons college backs.
Nine penalties did not help the
@. WIS. They lost a total of los
yards for holding, clipping. etc. which
was only less yards than they
gained all night. The statistics gave
the Rebels a big edge They gained
2s2 yards from scrimmage. to 1I3. and
l04 yards on seven passes in IA at
tempts as against $50 on IL compile
ions OF the 33 aerials the G. W.,s

those figures you must allow for the
fact tnat the touchdown counted only
points in Brickley's first year N

During his three varsity years
which illness reduced to two years and
a quarter-he kicked 25. goals from

against Yale, the greatest single ex-
hibition of drop-kicking that the
country ever has seen, with the pos
sible exception of Pat O'Dea's So

Charles right foot was a miracle of
strength, a Barnum unit by itself
Charles used to lie on his back and
challenge all corners to big-toe- push

His son-the elder of two kids-has
been drop-kicking, as Brickley says,
