CARL SNOW HURLS
HOSIERY SQUAD
TO EASY VICTORY
Johnny Edens Scores Two OF
Three Futile Cola Runs
As Visitors Win
BY r. J. POWELL

Shelling trio of Pepsi Cola hurl-
ers for dozen solid base blows,
the Hanes Hosiery baseball club
concluded it's stay here with lop-
sided IL to victory over the Drink
boys in the rubber game of three
game setup played between the
two outfits at Legion field. The
visiting Hanes took the first game
Thursday, SO, and Pepsi Cola
back to cop the second 20 Friday.
While his mates were teeing OF
against Lamb, Skipper and Har-
rington, the three Pepsi pitchers,
Carl Snow-on the slab for the
Winston-Salem aggregation was
having things pretty much to his
liking, limiting the home lads to
four singles. only one of which fig
ured il the Cola run-minting. John
ME Edens was the star for the los
ers as he shone On defense and
also tailed both the PCS runs.
The third and fourth were the big
rounds for the Hosiery gang, as
eight men paraded across home on
the strength of five Hanes hits and
several Cola nlis-hits. Motsinger's
triple touched off the five run
bomb that exploded into the lap of
Moundsma1 Skipper who had re-
placed wild Roy Lamb in the
first inning with corners crammed
and none dead. The visitors con-
tinued the marathon in the next
chatter with three markers and
then picked up four more needless
runs, one in the fifth and three in
the seventh.
Monk Harrington had his third
base" ball working when he took
over the hill in the eighth, and the
heavy-hitting Hosemen were held
scoreless and garnered only three
useless singles off the eccentric
rightha1dr in his first effort on the
the slab since his losing time
against the Camp Davis nine.

ASKS U. S. POLICY
ON MOVING ALIENS

New York City (ILNS).-True to
it's principles of fighting for justice
and democracy, the international La
dies Garment Workers Union has
asked Attorney General Francis Bid
die for change of policy with respect
to Italians to halt evacuation of large
numbers of East and West Coast res
idents to inland areas that 'would in
f1ict upon them untold misery, eco
nomic dislocations and sufferings in
punishment for crimes they have never
committed"
The appeal to the Attorney-General
was made in resolutions adopted by
the unions executive board and signed
by David Dubinsky, president, and
Luigi Antonini, vice-president. The
resolution declared that "a policy of
wholesale condemnation of our alien
population which reaches into many
millions is contrary to the spirit of
America and plays into the hands of
our Fascist and Nazi enemies, as evil
denced by their radio propaganda, es-
pecially in South America, where they
depict the United States as country
prosecuting minorities."

SMALL N. Y. PLANTS
TO GET WAR ORDERS

New York City (ILNS) Small in
dustrial plants in New York City,
threatened with closing because they
are not manufacturing war products
and can no longer obtain materials
for civilian manufactures, will be as
sisted by the War Department in con-
verting their facilities to ordnance
work, it was revealed here by Brig.
Gen. Walter P. Boatwright, who took
command of the New York ordnance
district headquarters.
Confirming the recent statement by
Mayor La Guardia that additional
small factories here would get ord
nance contracts soon, Gen. Boatwright
told reporters that the shortage of
machine tools for small shop defense
production, while serious, is not so
serious that equipment of shops can
not be rounded out so they may secure
balanced production"
He said the War Department policy
was to give every assistance possible
to small plants; this policy, he added,
he would follow to the maximum
extent"
