Had the Tar Heels and Deacs been

Labor's Non-P artisan League Backs
Patterson Ticket Despite Warning
Unions May Walk Out in Protest

FRESNO, Calf, April /. up
Despite a warning that "a lot of
unions" having membership in la
boris Non-Partisan league would
walk out, the leagues executive
board today backed the Democratic
slate Of presidential delegates head
ed by Lieut.. Gov. Ellis f. Patter-
son.
State Sen. John Shelley, presi-
dent Of the AFL San Francisco la
bro council, and a former member
of the leagues board told the group
meeting here last night that it was
d mistake to back Pattersons ticket.
He did rot reiterate an earlier
threat he would lead a Walkout of
uniOniStS.
The lSOn-Partisan league eXecu-
tive committee issued a formal
statement of its position, and at
the same time it warned its mem
bership against signing petitions to
recall Gov. Olson.
IF the recall petition qualities,
the league will call a special meet
ing of its state executive board to
consider the problems the
statement said.
The formal statement announced
support of the liberal Democratic
delegation slate tPatterson's) and
Imperial Valley press. (El Centro, Calif.) 1907-current, 1940-04-01

said it would participate in draft
ing a platform for the ticket when
the Patterson delegation meets with
representatives of labor unions and
Democratic clubs in Fresno April
- and ID.
This action was taken in the be-
lief that the election Of slch slate
at the presidential primaries would
insure the strengthening and ex-
tension OF the New Deal" it recited.
We feel that the issues involved
in this campaign are more import
ant than personalities. This prompts
us to support a slate which places
emphasis upon such issues as pres
ervation of peace in this country by
a guarantee against entry into for
eign wars a positive program for
solution of the unemployment and
relief problems.
The executive board feels the
liberal Democratic slate is in no
wise an anti-third party slate, but
believes that this uninstructed dele
CATION pledged only to principles
can most effectively work for lib
eral platform and nominee"

That little green monster, jealousy,
reared its nasty noodle among the
generous gathering of enthusiastic
boys sprinkled in the crowd Of
more than $1,000 yesterday at
Griffith Stadium. Object of the
envy Of many a school-skipping
youngster was 17-year-old Johnny
Catloth, the Nationals bat boy.
Some Of the more mature citizens,
too, were wishing for a job like
Johnny's, for the slim, dark-haired
lad was fulfilling a position as soft
as some of those w. P. A. dirt dis
turbing projects. What with Lefty
Grove spanking Mats in precise
order, Johnny lugged the salary
sticks of only 20 Washington players
back to their rack. An absolute
minimum for the course, barring
rain or radical Encouragement of the
rules, would consist of carrying q
bats back to their berths.
Johnny, though, is willing, even
eager, to labor overtime at regular
rates, which, incidentally, are 5000
per day, week and month. When
Johnny's busy the Mats are hitting,
and that's when the Tech High
student is happiest.
Johnny's Getting Big.
He's beginning to worry for his
job now, however, for he's sprouting
fast and maybe before many home
runs are hit, he'll smear some lather
on his facial fuzz and take the
first step toward manufacturing a
stubble. Johnny rapidly is getting
too big to be bat boy.
