Kennedy considered moving the

to within close range of the plant,
where the officers could hide behind
them for protection.
The strikers demanded recognition

After the contempt order was read
yesterday, Kennedy said one of the
strikers shouted, I'VE will not be re-

body tries to come in here"
A large crowd gathered early today
opposite the building and alternately
cheered the deputies and strikers.
The latest violence flared after the
officers had battered the door of one of
the plants in an unsuccessful effort to
gain entrance.
Some one within the plant threw a
bottle containing acid at the door.
The officers hastily abandoned their
course of attack as the fumes spread.
Sit-downers in the second plant, 60
feet away, cheered their colleagues as
they broke windows and threw pulleys
and water down on the besiegers
The officers then threw gas bombs
into the plant. The strikers moved to
the third floor, where they continued
to shout imprecations and toss out
missiles.
Defy Order of Officer.
One Of the men besieged In the
plant was heard to shout: Hold your

order for the strikers to come out.

thus ended the first race. In the
second race in the second lap, Lee
Bolster, of Pierz, shipped water al
the east turn and when the life
boat arrived his speeder had al
most disappeared beneath the wa
ter. That accident disabled the
second boat. Thus out of five boats
only three were available for the
race to follow.
The accidents also delayed the
surf board riding events, so that
the last event took place at $40
after many people had left the
lake shore. The first surf board
event, straight riding, was done by
young Welle. The second surf
board performance, acrobatics on

Leo Bolster. He stood on his head

This Is a saga Of Gameness, a
chapter If you will, on the indom-
liable spirit which fills the hearts
Of some modern day baseball play
ers. And they do not have to be
confined to the big leagues either.
Who shall come first? Well, you
may have your preferences and
otherwise, but certainly Mickey
Cochrane must head the list the
fallen leader of the Tigers who
has said that he can't play ball
again but who, you can bet, will
give it good try. The doctors will
have to lasso him and tie him
down to keep him away. It Is one
thing to come from the door Of
death. It is another to come from
the door and actually anticipate
sticking your head right in again,
as Cochrane Is doing. He was
beaned once before this near fatal
New York episode, you know, and
yet he came roaring back, better
than ever. Isn't it fitting that, If
he does close out his career, he
does it with 300 batting average.
Then there is Bob Teller, the
boy of tragedy. Bob Teller, who Is
in his tender teens. What heart
aches he must have as he sits and
worries over his future. For Teller
is worrying, don't kid yourself
about that. He may throw a good
game and then get sore arm
again. He may not be able to make
it. It may be that only long rest
will cure him, but meanwhile he
remains the 100000 gamble. Just
realize where those Indians would
have been if Teller could have con-
tributed seven or eight victories.
And he certainly would have won
that many games thus far.
We like to think Of Fat Freddy
Fitzsimmons, who was Giant
through many years Of pennant
and world series glory. And then

that the child knows her manners

ant do not.

NEWS BEHIND THE NEWS
IN THE LEGISLATURE
(By Vim Weber)

Noy VIZ WcUcTI
Adjournment by July Bird which
was the fondest hope Of every leg
islator is impossible because Of in
ability of conference committees
on several tax bills to arrive at
agreement, and the adjournment
goal has now been extended to the
10th, when it is felt all work can
be finished and the session closed.
In the regular session the Sen
ate was severely criticized by the
House leaders for passing out an
Omnibus Tax bill-that is one bill
including all Of the phases Of tax
alton. This session the Senate was
agreeable to the House and is act
ing upon the individual bills as
they came to US. Now the House
regrets that they have no Omnibus
bill to consider. They want the en-
tire tax picture before them so
that they can fairly gauge the
available revenue. AS a result of
this insistence upon the full pic
ture, conference committees have
been at logger-heads, the House
conferees refusing to agree until
the appropriation bills are passed.
This has resulted in much lost
time and not only prolongs the ses-
sion another week, but may result
in a deadlock which will carry the
session into still another week.
The appropriation for relief Is
the one bill that may prove to
cause a deadlock. The House pass
ed a bill calling for $1,000 900. The
Senate Finance committee on
Thursday struck out much of this
sum and reported in bill appro-
priating but $8,500,000 Therein
lies the two schools of thought al
luded to by his excellency, Gov
Benson, in a statewide radio
broadcast Tuesday evening. The
one school, represented by the
House, seeks ways and means OF
spending money and the other
school, represented by the Senate
seeks to plug the leaks and save.
The three large cities OF the
state are solidly behind the House
bill. They are backed by L. P. Zim
norman, state Relief chief, who
insists that any amount short o.
SIT OOO,OO will cause untold hard
ships. And though Mr.. thinner
man has facts and figures to sup
port his claim, rural members, es
pecially in the Senate, feel tina
sooner or later we must end relic
work and that the present Is a
good time to start as any.
