minute as an extra game for both
schools and giving them five series
games. This program, however, as
well as the rest Of the schedule
still needs the approval of the
Board of High School Principals
before becoming official.
Since 1902 Tech and Central failed
to meet in a football game only
during the influenza epidemic of
1918. The series has been remark
ably close. each having won 16
games with ties.
Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson
also will have five series games next
year. it being necessary for two West
Division teams to play that number
each season while the rest usually
play four. When Coolidge Is added
to the series. probably in 1912, a
better balance can be achieved. No
provision was made In the schedule
for Coolidge next year.
As the schedule for next year now
stands, Eastern plays its outside
games against Roosevelt and West
ern; Anacostia meets Central and
Wilson; Tech goes against Roosevelt
Wilson and Central; Central meets
Anacostia and Tech; Roosevelt plays
Tech and Eastern; Western meets
Eastern, and Wilson plays Tech and
Anacostia. These games, of course.
are in addition to the ones played
against teams within their own
divisions.
No dates have been set, yesterdays
meeting being only to approve the

And Larson, who's tough bench
rider, says he'll have the boys right.
Bill Busik, fancy-stepping triple
threaten back, is in trim again and
Larson hopes Bill Chip, Cliff Lenz
and Yves Colbert, all backs and
suffering minor injuries, will re-
cover to make his squad intact.
He planned to put the middies, a
powerhouse all year, through their
last hard pace today.
They've been great extensively and
defensively all season and will rule
favorites over the West Pointers,
who've won only one game.
But, vaunted power and great de-
fense to the contrary. Crabtown

gold braid would relax, tie Mellissa's S

her along. P. S. The MILDLY team

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 26.-FTom
a Navy standpoint, any way you take
1t, the outlook is bad for the tars
anchor weighing against Army, come
Saturday at Philadelphia.
WHY? You can spell it in capitals
Melissa won't be there.
Old Bill VIII, the Navy goat, Will
strut as usual on the sidellnes, put
when it comes to whammying the
opposition-well, somehow the Navy
fellows don't put much faith IN Ola
Bill any more.
But, they do put plenty of faith in
Mellissa-and Larson luck.
Who is Melissa, you ask? Wen,
she's a little schnauzer dog and not
very pretty to look at. But, any
MILDLY will tell you quickly that 1t
took Melissa in her little gold and
blue blanket to snap the Tars out
of the doldrums last year and bring
them an upset 10-to-0 victory over
Army.
Now somebody with gold braid
and plenty of stripes has done
Melissa wrong. Her name was
missing when they listed the en-
barktion party for the Quaker City
next Thursday. She'll toss her old
lucky sock about on the shores OF
the Severn while her beloved foot
ballers do their bit against the boys
from West Point.
Somebody banned Melissa back in
mid-season when the Tars were
going great and pretty soon, what
happened? The Tars went into q
tailspin, even with Old Bill around.
Dropped two games and tied another
after coping five straight.
Meanwhile, Melissa just mascoted
her "own" Junior varsity along
through winning season, watch
ing them tie just one game. Last
year she was drafted after similar
success and skinned the Army mule.
Now, Crabtown Is In dither. No
body wants to take chance and
everybody wants to know why Mel
nssa can't go.
Meanwhile, the middies will have
to depend on Larson Luck, it's all
they have left. Maj. Emery E.
(Swede) Larson, head coach and
master mind, never has tasted de-
feat from Army as Navy player or
coach.

Out of the seeds that were sown FIVE years

Greater opportunities lie before US today

Labor Unity

The Congress Of Industrial Organizations
has steadily and sincerely desired labor unity,
a real unity which would enable labor to adj
vance the interests of the workers. -.
Unity in the labor movement can be ac-
complished only if the unions in the Clio can
continue to organize the unorganized workers
in the mass-producton and basic industries
along industrial lines. And it must be all
inclusive. 1t must protect and include all the
organizations in the Clio.
The millions of newly-organized workers
are the pride of the Clio and the proof of the
effectiveness of the principles of the Clio. Not
one must be abandoned to the cavillings Of
jurisdictional claims of craft unions and the
prevalent racketeering within the AFL. In
short. every affiliated organization of the Clio
must be chartered and included in any new
united labor body that may develop.
Any program for unity should involve a
joint convention of all labor organizations,
including those of the AFL. Railroad Brother
hoods and the Clio. with existing jurisdictional
differences to be adjusted in such a conven-
tion.-Adopted Convention Report.

Defense Strikes

The recent strike OF aircraft workers at the
Vultee plant in California and of aluminium
workers in New Kensington. Pennsylvania is
being seized on by congressional reactionaries
and their press allies as evidence of the need
to take away the workers right to strike.
The attacks tie in closely with the efforts Of
the same gang to take away the benefits OF the
Wagner Act. The local morning paper has
written much about the Wagner Act. Most of
il has been unfactual tripe which the editor
has protected by refusal to publish letters
challenging the stuff Most of the time he has
hedged and written that the administration
was wrong. Now that the President has re-
moved Chairman Madden fine conscientious
public servant, the paper presses on for the
Senate to pass the House amendments Grip
ping the Act. The same repeats the fallacy
that France caved in because her workers de-
manded decent wages and conditions and
warns that American workers should heed the
lesson
The Vultee strike settlement meant an in
crease of ST 100000 to the $500 workers
involved The Clio union tried for months
to obtain this needed raise without resorting
to a strike Even the new agreement provides
the modest minimum of 6212 cents per hour,
hardly princely wagel

Tense cooperation made at its New Orleans

One can hardly feel sorry for Davey. either
The Teller should have learned his lesson last
time he was in the outfit.
But the delegates did not think as one" as
was evidenced by the dozens of resolutions
on jurisdictional disputes in which union after
union urged that the membership of one be
turned over to the other and vice versa.
Then that little question of cleaning out the
AFL racketeers found that the convention did
not think as one" Little Davey made a
noble effort to make his new home respectable
but the outcome was not entirely satisfactory
AS for Willie we expect his tranquility and
fraternity will continue for many year.

Mine Safety

Another tragic plea for passage of the
Neely-Keller mine safety bill came from
Ohio last week Thirty trapped coal miners
had their lives snufed OH, in a gas filled mine
near Cadiz. Ohio.
John Owens, head of the United Mine
Workers in Ohio makes the grave charge
that ''this catastrophe could have been
prevented If we had adequate inspection
and regulation of mines"
The United Mine Workers point to long
experience when they charge that existing
state inspection and regulation OF mines are
inadequate and not properly enforced. The
mine workers know that their safety under
ground has been sacrificed to the we'll being
of operators and profit takers on the surface.
They know that some corrupt political ma
chimes have connved to nulfy and make
worthless the state laws passed only after
aroused public opinion had insisted upon
action.
So the mine workers have gone after fed
eral action to supply that which has been
hlched from them in some states. Aided by
their good friend Senator Nicely in the United
States Senate and Representative Keller in
the House they introduced legislation calling
for federal mine inspection and safety regula-
ton.
The measure passed this session in the
United States Senate.
1t has been necessary to file a petition in
the House even to permit the subject to come
up for consideration of the membership.
This is disgraceful state of affairs. This
year has seen many tragic mine disasters.
Sixty-three died in July at Sloman. Pa; 81
met death in West Virginia last January; II
were killed last March at the Willow Grove
explosion in Ohio, near to the scene of last
weeks disaster which killed thirty.
And a complacent House of Repre-
sentatives, which has time to pass the
Walter-Logan Bill; emasculate the Wag-
ner Act and discuss taking away the
workers rights to strike cannot find time
to extend protection to the perils Of the
mine workers!
The thoughtful people should ask them
selves what is the source and reasoning of the
powerful opposition which is denying even
consideration of this legislation.
Social minded persons will call out again
for passage of the Neely-Keller mine inspec-
ton BILL
