Mr.. Justice
Murphy Quoted

in dignity and something tells
me that IL not what you have In
mind.
However, I will say lay
mans opinion, of course-thsf
the unnecessary roughness to-
day did not seem unnecessarily
rought. The thing to do In .
football game, as In war, 10
win, and it is often necessary
to resort to somewhat ungentle
practices.
Furthermore, those players
were not out there trying to
win a peppermint stick for good
conduct and unfailing courtesy.
They were trying to defeat
their opponents I think We
might go into this matter more
. fully.
"Luis Angel Firpo, known as
the Wild Bull Of the Pampas,
was certainly guilty of unneces-
sary roughness when he knocked
Jack Dempsey out Of the ring In
the first round of their epic fight
In New York on Sept. Ia, 1928.
In fact, he hit Dempsey so hard
he knocked him right into the
lap OF the late Hype Igoe, who
was present only to report the
event and not catch flying prize
fighters.
"But I am sure Mr.. Firpo
always regretted not having hit
Mr.. Dempsey harder. The latter
climbed back I'm the ring and
defeated Mr.. Firpo decisively In
the second round.
"And, IL we wish 30 carry the
debate one step farther, let me
ask you this:
Don't you think maybe we
were guilty of unnecessary
roughness when we dropped the
atom bomb on Hiroshima?"
Your Honor, the defendants
attorney desires to withdraw
from the case.

IL they knew that the majestic
bird so loved by them had been
supplanted by something else.
Naturally. there was no way
on earth for me 10 communicate
with a Pilgrim Father and find
out what his reaction would be.
So l did the next best thing.
/ dressed up as a Pilgrim
Father, armed myself with an
ancient fowling piece, and set off
in the woods TO get food for the
family table
EOR two days, stalked a tur-
Il key. My buckles came off
my shoes. Briars tore my long
stockings.

Many a real Pilgrim Father
must have endured the same
tortures, years ago
NoW, do you mean To- tell me
that an original Pilgrim Father,
had he been able 10 step into
butcher shop and bag" a nice,
plump, already dressed meat
loaf for few cents and some
red points, would have traipsed
through the woods, riSking
death by the Indians, trying TO
get a turkey?
The answer is no.
So, this T hank ksgiving

table.

key, too, just for the dressing

WASHINGTON
SCENE
Bv GEORGE DIXON

TIiE Washington team kept
l. getting penalized for unneces,
sary roughness, although l couio
not detect even a simple case OF
MAYHEM. There wasn't so much
as a single eyeball lying on the
greensward and all the players
came off the field with the same
number of arms and legs.
Mr.. Wisner seemed to feel
strongly about the refereeing.
On one occasion, when the play
was called back for unnecessary
roughness. Mr.. Wismer said
very sarcastically - into the
microphone:
.T guess the Washington ball
carrier was running too hard"
Mr.. Wismer who incidentally
receives an award in New York
tonight as the years outstand-
ing sportscaster, made the sad
error OF turning the microphone
over to me for a minute. /
started to b b er something
about why didn't the officials
penalize the radio coop for un-
necessary roughness to my per-
son but the play got so exciting
right then ! trailed off. probably
leaving Mr.. Wismer's audience
quite baffled.
IN THE way out OF the park
vi encountered Supreme Court
Justice Frank Murphy. ! asked
him if he would care to deliver
an opinion on the unnecessary
roughness as seen by the referees.
Mr.. Justice Murphy mopped
his brow on a writ of certiorari
and spake as follows;

as was TO be suspected, with bit

militant tofminorities-the of m
skilled carvers of America.

blast that any man Of breed

take lessons in carving. saying
that any man could learn the
art. That is not true. You
might just as we'll say that any
one who takes tap dance les
sons will learn to tap dance.
Like people who like iron deer
on their lawns. carvers are born,
not made.
Patriotic organizations also
opposed my plan TO depose the
turkey.

CEVERAL Thanksgivings ago,
~ after an especially trying ex-
perience with turkey, this col
umn suggested that the turkey
be abandoned as our national
bird, and that something more
1fuitable for carving be adopted.
i suggested the meat loaf
for our national bird. True, a
meat loaf il not a bird in the
strictest sense of the word,
In that II doesn't have wings,
legs, or bony back. But IL
u the very lack Of these
things which make the meat
loaf such n perfect selection.
Aside from the ease with
which a meat loaf can be carved,
II has other great advantages
over the turkey. It's appearance
on the table automatically puts
an end 10 any arguments as TO
who gets the choice pieces. The
breast of meat loaf tastes eX-
actlY- like the drumstiek of
meat loaf, and no one has 10

The fourth day the scraps of

THESE
DAYS

THE American Federation Of
Il Labor in Samuel Gompers'
day, concerned itself with
wages, hours and working con-
ditions. Perhaps that was primi-
tive trade unionism. but II i'm
proved the social and economic
status of the worker.
The IWW. which was an
anarcho-syndicaliSt movement,
hoped TO change the world by
strikes. and attracted intellec-
tuals as much as workers, who
were fascinated by the enthu-
slams of the movement.
THE CIO is different from
both the AFL and the IWW, 1t
is definitely a political organi-
zation, allied simultaneously TO
the Democratic and Communist
parties.
It's design is 10 alter the eco
nomic system Of this country
by political action through the
Political Action Committee and
at the same time 10 reduce the
rights OF capital and the au-
thority of management by the
total control of labor.
"Sitdowns. If ca h g r-bed-
ding" "goId-bricking,' stop
pages" wildcat strikes and
other devices have been ar
ranged to achieve the end that
industry becomes dependent
upon the authority Of the CIO.
