W.U.W Workers
In State Win
Pay Increase
Locals, Now In C.T.U., Or
ganized in New Haven,
Hartford, Bridgeport

The Commercial Telegraphers
Union, which now includes the
former federal locals of employees
of Western Union, has announced
a two-point program designed to
protect its membership should the
proposed merger of Western Union
and Postal Telegraph take place,
according to Kenneth McCue, pres
ident of Local 81, New Haven. A
4O-hour week with 48 hours pay
and bonafide assurances that all
employees of S years seniority or
more be retained are the demands
of the CTU.
The bill calling for the merger has
passed the Senate and is now in COM
mittee in the House.
AGREEMENT REACHED
Local 81 is now working under the
agreement reached with Western
Union in Boston last month which
covers its employees in New Haven,
Boston, Providence, Springfield and
Worcester. McCue represented New
Haven in the negotiations which ex-
tended over several months. The five
locals wrested $65,00O in wage in
creases for 500 employees from the
firm, an average increase of 1919.
The contract also insures union mem
bership with a maintenance of mem
bership clause. Locals have been or
gained in Bridgeport and Hartford,
and will also share in the increase.
Officers of Local 81, in addition
to McCue, are Miss Janet Priest,
vice-president; Morris Katz, secre-
tary-treasurer; and Miss Malta
Inguiggati, recording-secretary.

TRIBUTE TO MAHON

This occasion, aside from COM
memorating the institution of the
international Union, also marks the
beginning of activities of William D.
Mahon, who, when young man,
started agitation against the tremen-
dous abuses to which street railway
employees were subjected.
After being successful in forming
several locals he conceived the plan of
forming a national union, and so
years ago on next September IS, with
but a handful of local unions
marked the beginning of an organi
cation which now has local unions in
all parts of the United States and
Canada, with hundreds of thousands
of members who are employed on
street cars, buses and other forms of
transportation.
OUTSTANDING OFFICIAL
1t was then that William d.
Mahon began his career, which
after so years makes him one of
the outstanding labor officials of
the country. He has been immense
Iy successful, not only as an or
ganizer but as an executive and
financier, and has built up an or

ing established greatly improved
working conditions for its mem.
bers, is maintaining benefit fea.

Lemos, Ex-Feather
 Champ, Shows At Hartford Tonight

Hartford, Nov. 10 --- Take 1t from one who ought to know, Willie Pep will be the next featherweight champion of the world. For Richie Lemos, who held the NBA feather crown last season, arrived in town yesterday early enough to watch Pep train and based his prediction thbt the local feather sensation would beat Chalky Wright on the 20th on Pops speed and youth.
 But Lemos didn't come all the way to Hartford just to look ct a future champ. He Is here to do bat tie with George Zengaras, the sup. erbly built New York Greek light- weight in Q ten-round star bout at the Hartford Auditorium tonight.
 This fight has all the makings of Q rough, tough battle. Both throw mean left hooks, with the southpaw Lemos, c switch hitter by the way, getting much farther with his. Tho little Mexican will give away pound- age in taking on the former ana. teur wrestler, but he has the wea. pons in both fists with which to whip the Greek.
 Meet The Baron
 Managed by the shrewd Baron Henry r. Von stumme, Lemos has come c long way since deSerting the amateurs, in which the Baron claims he won oil his 08 fights as Q bantam. From bantam and feather amateur champ Of his native state of California, the bemustached Baron turned his club-hghting tough Mexican Into c world champ.
 In e0-odd pro fights, the Baron ayers that Lemos has scored about GO per cent in knockoutS. He kay oed Pete scalzo to capture the NBA crown, and this year knocked out lightweights Bobby Ivy and Ray Lunny among others. Last Friday he outpointed Carmine Fatta In aveng- ing for previous loss.
 Promoter Ed Hurley has four other bouts on the card. with Lee Harper and Cannonball Robinson of New York paired in the six-round Semi-final

StoItz Ring Career
 Appro aches Climax

New York, Nov. 10 -- The year 1e42 has been by far the best for Allie Stolz since he started his box ing career in 1887. But 1t may oil end in disaster should Stolz lose to Beau Jack in their scheduled ten- round contest at Madison Square Garden on Friday night.
 StolZ has met two world cham. pionS this year. He won decisively from Chalky Wright, wrold feather weight king, last August. A few months before that he fought Sam my Angott, lightweight champion, in c titular match. The officials voted Angott on that occasion but prac- tically everyone else in the Garden thought Stolz deserved the verdict.
 Allie triumphed in oil his other bouts this year, He whipped Bobby Rufiin and Joey Fontana in New York, travelled to New Haven to score over Snooks Lacey, went down to Baltimore to trounce Billy Banks then up to Boston to take the fneas- ure of Aloe Denner. The Denner CUiltebt tOVk pAuCS VAi OSNobSE uilu was Stolz's last fight.
 stolS has not lost his status as No. 1 contender for the lightweight title. Indeed. the loss of Q dicision to Angott last May was So strongly disputed that the Newark lads po- sition as leading challenger seemed stronger than ever.
 Afraid?
 But Angott has been putting of c second meeting with Stolz. He has rejected several offers to face stolz again and now states that he may not be able to risk his laurels before tn first Of the year on the grounds that he Is suffering hand injuries.
 stolz could sit back and wait for Angott to make up his mind about deefnding his crown again. But he prefers to remain active. In doing 70 he jeopardizes his rating as No. 1 contender. A setback at the hands of the formidable Beau Jack will topplc him right of his lofty perch.
 And even those woh like stolz's chances on Friday concedc that Al.

things, two of them concerned with an extra buck. Antl the pernt IS this you can't blame the guy for tryin' to make Q couple Of quick bucks"
 First Punch"
 The first supposition Is that Cam. i'll Is trying to beat to the punch the new general manager of the Dodgers Branch Rickey, who Is famous for his penny -pinchin0 and hiring of "coolie help, for the St.. Louis Cardinal chain gang. Tn this connection. 1t must be remembered that Camilli faces sizable cut from his salary of $i8,500, because the Dodgers lost the pennant In the last campaign as Dolphs batting average slumped from .285 tp .25i Moreover, at the ripe baseball age of 34, Dolph required several trips to Johns Hopkins cllnac In Baltimore to take on injections of vitamins or the like to bring him back to par.
 The second supposition is that the shrewd Italian is giving Q goo-goo- eyed fadeaway, 6 hard.to.get man. euver that should stimulate every. one connected with the club to say, "Why Dolph's the logical manager of this outfit, If Leo Durohcer goes into service"
 And in this connection Camilli has a lot of backing because he was the man Larry MacPhail obtained in 1888 to begin rehabilitation of the Dodgers. Macphail made no mis. take when he took Dolph from the Phillies for $45,ooo and outnelder Eddie Morgan.
 That was probably the greatest deal In MacPhail's tumultuous car. eer, for Dolph's booming bat and fielding grace brought the fans back In such numbers that MacPhail was able to pay off $45.000 to the bank and get down the first installment on e lighting system. Because Of that succeSs--as the Dodgers, who finished seventh in '3s, moved to third in '39, second in 40, and to a pennant in 4i-Camilli ard Mac- Phail fought like cats and dogs over his salary each spring.
 More Money
 And each spring Camilli, the fly. ing ranchero, threatened to quit the game and retire to his i700-aere California cattle ranch with his wife and kiddies. But he didn't. Instead, he got more money.
 The third supposltion Is that Camilli may be in earnest this time, that he feils he can wind up with more dough by being e player.inan- ager for San Francisco or Portland, Ore., of the Pacific Coast league than by paying the expenses of hls wife and Ave children in the east while he works with Brooklyn.
 Portland, 0 perennial tail.ender on the coast, doubtless would make overtures to Camilli. But his most logical spot would be with the San Francisco Seals, where Manager Frank Lefty" O'Doul is reported heading for the Navy and leaving behind an approximate 5000 0 year.
 Tn his announcement, Dolph de- clared that he was lucky to wind up with Ave grand at the end of . season after paying his fsmily's eastern expenses. Thus, that eight grand might interest him tremen- dously.
 But the Brooklyn fans-who love Camilli-doubt 1t.

SUDDEN PLAN TO QUIT BIG SHOW FOR ALL TIME
Pay Cut By Hickey, New Brooklyn Boss, Seemed
 "Sure Thing"

Laytonville, Calif., November 10 = (UP) -- Dolph Camilli, the Ma tional Leagues most valuable player in ie4i and one of baseballs ''priZe packages" under existing draft regulations, said today that he had retired from the majoi leagues flor good and would never go back to the big show"
 Camilli, 34-year- old first baseman of the Broowlyn Dodgers, batted only ,25i last season. Because he is married and the father of five chil- dren Camilli is considered valuable to any team.
 "rve been in baseball l7 years" camilli said. T think it's time I settled down to my hanch and fam fly, but, if I can make connections, I'll try and sign on the Pacific Coast League as 6 player manager. Then I wouldn't have to take my children out of school and move them east every season."
 Satisfied?
 The veteran first baseman who led the senior league in home runs and .batted.in in ie4i, denied he had been dissatisfied with the Dodgers or had had differences with the clubs manager, Leo Durocher.
 I'm not mad at anyone" he said, Y never had trouble with anyone on the club, particularly last year. I've just decided that you cannot play baseball forever"
 Camilli owns Q i,700.acre cattls ranch In the heart of the California redwood country.

Rejected By Majors, Mobley Puts Hardin-SimmOnS On Top
Cowboy Star Is Threat To Whiz Whites All-Time Mark
BY HAL SAYLES NEA Sepclal Correspondent

Abilene, Tex, Nov. 10 -- There's quite Q jackrabbit out here on the Southwest plains and west Texas folk will tell you, without so much as batting an eye, that he can out maneuver anyone in football suit.
 Their unsung hero is Hardin Simmons Rudy (Doc) Mobley, who is well Cn the way to modern ground-gaining record.
 In leading the undefeated Cow boys through their giant-killing schedule, this quick-striding, gilt ter guy consumed S82 yards in the 97 times he carried in the first six games.
 That figure puts him out in front among the leather -luggers of the country and leaves him only 339 yards shy of the all-time mark compiled by WhiZzer White, Color ado All-America in 1887. And the way the i60-pounder is going now, he's 6 cinch to make 1t.
 He had an average net gain of l76.4 yards per game with four con- tests to go.
 MAKES KEY ToUCHDoWNS
 This record, incidentally, has not been made against bunch of softies. Among the Cowboys vic- tins are Baylor. Southern Methodist and Arizona. Baylor went into the Texas game battling for Southwest Conference leaders ship.
 Mobley made one of the two touch downs Hardin-Simmons chalked up in beating Baylor, 13-6 and scored the one that tripped SMU. TO.
 In all, Doc Mobley racked up 10 touchdowns against four foes to lead the Border Conference, of which the Cowboys are members, in scoring.
 This role as scoring leader is nothing new for Mobley. Two years ago at paducah, Tex, High School, he was the top tally maker in the Texas Interscholastic League with i74 points.
 Tn high school, Mobley weighed only i35 pounds. Southwest Con- ference talent scouts - looking for the more rugged type - passed him up. This has been c trifie embarrassing to more than one coach in the bigger loop.
 West Texans will have you know, however, this Hardin Simmons team is no one-nan show. TOUGH ON BIG FOES
 In Camp Wilson, 2l5-pound fresh- man fullback, the Cowboys have an. other terrific runner who has made more than 400 yards this season - mostly on blasts through the mid- die.
 And they're right proud of a sparkling line that yielded Q net of only 10 yards against sMu rushes.
 Good football teams are not an oddity around this little Baptist school campus.
 The Cowboys always have been oinery critters for Southwest Con. ference teams to handle. It was in 1895 that Hardin Simmons almost whipped Southern Methodist's Rose Bowl team, and 1t has knocked of a mighty impressive record over the past 10 years.
 Now Coach Warren Woodson's wild-riding Cowhands are shoots ing for their second unbeaten, un- tied season in three years. Last year Hardin Simmons and Arizona were co-champions of the Border Conference and this trip the Cow boys are favored to make 1t to the top alone.
 Thanks to e little fellow named Doc Mobley and a capable sup-
