The American Brotherhood for the
Blind, sponsored flower sale on the
streets of the city Saturday. The re-

the flowers for whatever you were dis
posed to drop into-the collection boxes.
Local people sponsoring the sale were:
Mayor Jack Peshel, the Rev. Frank
Mihelcic, the Rev. L. S. Sloan, B. j.
Agnew. Mrs. Thomas j. Carey, Mrs.
Ruth King, Mrs. Inez Norby with Mrs.
Jack Seraphine in charge.
Prizes were awarded the young ladies
excelling in the sale. Katherine Chin
Ear received first prize; Leona Kozar,
second and Phyllis Ann Draeger, third.
Other workers were made happy with
Movie passes. The sponsors wish to
express their thanks for the workers.

A Few Observations on Matters

AS anticipated, the Com
munist born CIO has run its
course and while it still is let
ting out feeble gasps, it is on
its last legs. Publicity has kept
the movement going as long as
the dues lasted and the lack
of publicly is what killed it.
The final death blow was adj
ministered when our own Con-
gresham j. T. Bernard left the
duties in Washington for which
he was being paid actual money
and came to the ranges to stir
up a mess among contented
laborers and their employers.
The laborers saw through the
Communist-foreign-born move
ment and failed to "kick in" or
get overly enthused.
The miners in the mines OF
both the Vermilion and Mesaba
ranges, working under the best
conditions possible at high
wages and at peace with the
operators, listened to the bland
ishments held out by Bernard
and sundry other organizers

Simmons, Lewis No Help.


WITH runners on first and second,
Al Simmons, pathetic figure
at bat all afternoon, lifted a dismal
pop to Cissell. The Mats hopes sunk
with this puny effort, but Johnny
Stone raised them with a wtistling
single to center that scored Myer and
placed Kuhel on third.
Thus it was left up to Buddy Lewis.
Earlier in the game Buddy had mar
nowly missed driving one off the right
field fence and there was a chance that
he had found the range. But Buddy,
like Simmons, only popped to Cissell
md it was all over.
Caster who previously defeated the
Griffs this season by IL count, when
he gave up only four hits, was given
tremendous ovation by the crowd.
Several hundred swarmed the AS
dugout and surrounded and felicitated
the right-hander who once had failed
with the Philadelphia's.
P. S.-Yeah, the Mats still are at
the bottom of the league. This was
their seventh defeat in nine starts,
and the AS, of all people, have taken
four out of four games.

recalled that Connie Mack couldn't

Neither could the Mats beat Chicago.
Comics 1887 club still is the best
hustling outfit the Grif1s have met
yet. The AS are determined to sur
prise. If they could play the Harris
men every day they might win the
pennant.
Memories Of cynical Athletic root
ers booing Caster couple Of years
ago came to mind after today's game,
when several hundreds thronged in
front Of the AS dugout and showered
congratulations on the rookie who
came back Was it Ruth or Voltaire
who said ''in base ball you're hero
one day and a bum the next?"
Rough on Appleton.
THE real tragedy centered around
Pete Appleton. The guy pitched
himself one whale of ball game to-
day and yet couldn't win. He was as
good as Caster, but the difference be-
tween the pair was that the Athletic
pitcher had a slugger (Newsome, aver
age .225) playing on his side.
Incidentally, that fielding play little
Lamar Newsome pulled on Ben Chap
man in the ninth inning probably
saved the game for Caster. Leading
off, Ben slapped one right through
the box but the jackrabbit that Mack
is playing at short made an amazing
pickup and threw him out Two hits
and a base on balls followed this.
Official scorers always become con-
science-stricken when they call du-
bious hit and then see the pitcher
move toward an otherwise no-hit, no
run game. This happened today and
the guy who was calling them was all
for asking Umps Jack Quinn for a
decision on the play in which Kuhel
was credited with hit in the seventh
inning. If the Mats hadn't rallied and
hit safely in the ninth Quinn would
have been asked If he didn't call Kuhel
safe because Deans foot was OF the
bag.
