appoint a fact-finding commission to
bring in recommendation for ending
the dispute. In the past the findings

satisfactory by railway labor.

The first step in the campaign was
to determine the cause of the acci-
dents. A study of the 43 employees in
the police, fire, street, water and
sewer, electrical and sanitary depart
ments revealed that most accidents
were attributable to carelessness, ig-
norance and drunkenness on the Job.
First, all employees guilty of the lat
ter offense were discharged, and the
remaining employees were shown how
accidents were caused and how they
could be prevented.
Employe morale as we'll as the ac-
cident record has improved since the
campaign was undertaken, the town
manager reports. Employees take pride
in keeping their records accident-free
not only because of the interest in
personal safety but also because Of
the rivalry between departments.
Hesitation in reporting minor injuries
has been discouraged by emphasis on
the possibility of serious results de-
veloping through delay in proper
medical attention.

years hundreds of actors had come
to him for aid and advice. It is not
for nothing he was called "the &C
tors friend"
Uncle Dan, from his retirement,
saw tastes in the theater chang
ing. The fIOrid drama of his age
was giving way to stark realism.
The theater was speaking a diff
ferent and more earthly language.
But one basic element remained.
Human plays were always the best
ones, he said.
Last month Uncle Dan fell and
broke his hip in his hotel apart
ment. Shortly afterward he con-
tracted pneumonia. He felt it was
his last illness and had been tell
ing callers for several days before
his death that 'the final curtain
is about to fall"
Like the systematic producer he
was, he had arranged all his af-
fairs. Two years ago he had even
sent his own obituary to newspa-
per editors with a note saying
that "as 1 may soon pass away,
you may want these facts" Re-
pOrters rushed to FrOhman's Of
flee to find out if he was ailing
and he said that he never felt bet
ter in his life, "but you can't live
forever and I thought you might
want to have the facts"
Uncle Dan didn't die right. His
mind worked in a theatrical way,
and it must have been a disap-
pointment to him that he met a
commonplace and undramatic end
in sanitarium. But perhaps it
was better tn a Dan Frohman

the seventh round and some thir-
ty-five thousand Jewish fans of
the sixty-odd thousand spectators
raise a mighty plea to young Bar
ney Ross to come through -. {.
And the Fighter the next eight
rounds was the most exciting ring
battle this corner has ever seen.
The two gallant scrappers-Bar-
ney Ross, the dapper scrapper
from Chicago and Jimmy McLar-
min, gentleman gamecock, stood
toe to toe in the middle of the ring
and actually lambasted each other
beyond recognition The nod
went to Barney Ross who thus
earned the lightweight champion
ship of the world. What a fight!
BASKETBALL:
There were some mighty thrill
ing games we've seen ON the baS-
ketball court whether at the Penn
Palestra or the Garden in New
YOrk-but none has ever matched
the intensity and the sheer inspi-
ration that logged a game between
the University of Pittsburgh and
C.C.N.Y. almost at the beginning
of the sports cycle we've been talk
ing about. The City tie a m was
playing without the services of its
great cOach-Nat Holman. 1t was
playing listlessly, missing shots,
and committing blunders that a
school kid would have been
ashamed of. Pitt was leading by
some fifteen points. The game was
i'm it's final ten minutes. Some of
the crowd were already filing out
when someone spied Nat Holman
coming on the floor. He was re-
turning from the Sick-bed of his
brother who was critically ill. He
walked to the players bench, sat
down and watched the game in
tentIy without saying word Of
greeting to the fans or players.
But somehow the lads on the court
sensed the presence of the Master.
City came to life. In the final ten
minutes C.C.N.Y. - a really in
spired team if ever there was one
scored twenty-five pOints-Pitt
scoring nothing. Said Pat Muir
raw, the referee of the game, "Pd
never have believed such a thing
possible. In all my thirty years OF
officiating I've never seen such an
electrical inspiration provided a
team by a coach as we've just seen
done by Holman" From a
SPECTATORS point of view-it was
simply terrific = simply thrilling.
We've only scratched the sur
face Well go on in the next
ten years and remind you of some
of the high spots of the years just
gone by. We only hope for the
sake of the younger generation
that such feats can be duplicated.
AS a matter of fact, we know they
will be - sports have a way to
make the past seem old fashioned
and the gigantic records of today
will fall by the wayside as mere
chiid's play for the athletes OF the

FOOTBALL:
A packed Yankee Stadium is
watching highly tOuted Army
team twist the tail of the Column
bia Lion. The score is 1876 in IA
vOr of the Cadets from West
Point. The Mule has just scored
and the Blues have elected to re-
ceive the kickoff. A slender dark
haired kid is way back on his own
goal line waiting for the pigskin.
He grabs the ball and shoots
straight down the middle. He stiff
arms an Army player and squirms
and spins up the field. Interior
ence is forming FOR him. He's past
