The first meeting of the new
Stewards was held April 6. Let's
get behind them and pitch, they
are trying to do job for us.
The only person in the shop
who gets along with the super
intendent of Mechanical Rubber
Department is the superintend-
eut himself. Ever notice that
self-satiSfied smirk?
Harvey Hephner has returned
after being on the sick list. Won
der if the Editor of the Herald
ever intends to sweat little or
to soil his hands in the interest
of the war effort? We can still
use part-time workers "Mr. Flag
Waver"-or is it beneath your
dignity and social standing to
EARN your money? Wonder
what the G. rs will think of
your absence from the produc-
ton line? Could it be that the
wages aren't high enough?
Cecil King has been chosen
chief steward for the third shift.
All veterans of World Wars
and ii are urged to get in touch
with Roy Neff Sr.
There is movement afoot to
form a soft-ball team in the
Local. Those interested should
contact Walter Dorobek.
Have Clara Capko and Sophia
Hallier noticed Ann Boytim is
getting rather thin?
Harry Wood has been confin-
ed due to an appendicitis opera
ton. Hurry and get we'll Harry,
we need you back in the shop.
Has anyone reported that
Fred Brown of the Receiving
Dept. is a vet of the South Pa
cific? Or that Jim Won Claim
of the Banbury is a vet of the
italian campaign?
Did you attend the last mem
bership meeting? 1t not-plan
to be at the next one the fourth
Thursday of this month at the
X of P Hall.
Our condolences to Brother
Joy Frost on the death of his
father.
The Recre t 10 n Room in
Local 497's hall has been re-
decorated recently and is now
ready for department gather
ings.
The International Assessment
is due this month, read the bull
letin boards for all information.
Have you subscribed for the
JOURNAL yet? It's your paper
and costs you only one dollar
per year m e d to your
home each week. You will have
a column similar to this every
week. Hand in your news to
your steward for a better col
umn next week.
It's hard to believe there is
a shortage of help in view of the
three day and indefinite lay-offS
being handed out. Who's trying
to kid who around here any
way?

Save Electric had two meet
ings on Tuesday at our Union
hall. Our contract is finished.
Now our battle begins with the
WLB. Our Save Electric people
are still talking about the meet
ing where Mr.. Schroeder and
M. Steinberg had debate be-
fore the entire membership.
Let's have more of those meet
ings.
We all love Ada Harp, our
chief steward at the Commodore
Perry Hotel. We signed our con-
tract with the best insurance
plan in the country. How about
other shops following our foot
steps?
Alex Stone ports that
State Director Lawrence Stein
berg spent a day at Harvester
War Depot. He interviewed
prisoners, spoke to all our
stewards, and had dinner in our
cafeteria. Our members loved
it. Only one thing happened,
Mr.. Baker tailed him around all
day. Come again, Larry!
Do you know Bostwick &,
Braun has little Einstein, only
his name is Clare Rowland. He
is a wizard on figures. Before
the boys will be through nego-
tiating Bostwick-Braun con-
tract, we are sure he'll get our
boss down to earth. Lou Fought
has trouble with his right leg or
is it the left leg, Lou? We think
it's because he runs too often to
the union and from there-who
knows? Walter Kutz is still
single. He works at Bostwick-
Braun, he is about 6 foot tall,
dark and handsome. Let's fence
him in girls.
Evidence! l saw Larry Stein
berg and Ivo Erwin out with a
woman at midnight. They had a
midnight snack at restaurant
on Superior Street. snooped
around and discovered she was
Ivo's daughter. Some people
think she belongs to Larry.
Larry has a picture of her in his
office on the book case. He's like
a second father to her.
Ralph Aiello is the proud
father of about 13 kids, maybe
it's Ia. Keep it up Ralph, our
union can use plenty of mem
berS.
Home Made Box Lunch has a
new supervisor, Martha Kis-
singer. She is the wife of our
former organizer, Kenny Kis-
singer now in Italy.
l was up to the office the other
day and | saw a real naval
officer with a lot of muscle, and
He had overseas
stripes and was a former chief
steward of the Commodore
Perry Hotel Unit. His name is
John Lang. Rumors have it he
is single and spends lot of his
time in the union hall.
BostWick-Braun Company has
what they call rambling
packer and a cigarette man.
Every half hour this rambling
packer has to see someone or
smoke cigarette.
Now girls, just because Walter
Kutz is a tall, dark and hand
some man, don't think he hasn't
got lions disposition.
Dan Fought is at the Flower
hospital and is doing nicely.
If the party who wrote few
lines about Louis Fought and his
foot only knew what that man
has gone through, you would
want to help him instead of run
ming him down.

Leonard of the Maritime service, the referee, counted out McDaniels of the prominent SchnozDola at 1:23 of the second round, when he was on the floor for the second time in the abbreviated bout.
 Down And Out
 A finishing left hook to the chin felled McDaniels squarely upon his back near Robinson's corner. As Leonard, former lightweight cham pion, waved the count, McDaniels writhed over onto his face and lay there after the count was finished until his handlers picked him up and hauled him across the ring to his corner.
 McDaniels was out on his feet and reeling about the ring before the kayo blow landed. Three explosive bursts of fist barrage to the head had taken care of that in the second round.
 The gross gate was $48, ,40O.
 Before Robinson can get a shot at Champion Cochrane, the champ meets Rocky Graziano of New York in non-tile bout at the Garden two weeks hence If Graziano beats Cochrane, Promoter Mike Jacobs probably will match Robinson and Graziano for an outdoor bout in July or September.

Robinson Stops |McDoniels In 2
By JACK CUDDY

United Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, June 16 - (U.P0 - If Ray Sugar" Robinson has slipped, it must have been on stick of dy- namite. He was t-h-a-t explosive last night as he knocked out Well terweight Jimmy McDaniels of Los Angeles in the second round before 1l,210 fans at Madison Square Gar den.
 This quick kayo propelled Negro Robinson toward a title tilt with Freddie Cochrane. welterweight king who watched Robinson's brown-lightning execution with saul cer-like eyes.
 Slender stream-lined Robinson not only tagged rugged McDaniels with his first knockout in 66 pro- fessional bouts; but he did 1t in a fashion that must elevate Sugah- Foot Ray to a par in deadly ef- fectiveness with the great Joe Louis.

43 Railroads Answer Foes

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 8.-Forty-
three railroads, representing SO per
cent of the carriers over whose
tracks Pullman cars are operated
filed a brief in United States Dis
trict Court today. protesting that
arguments against their plan to
purchase the Pullman Co. are
"unfounded.
The United States Government
and other bidders, the brief states
brand the railroad proposal as one
designed to aid the large roads.
The brief states the railroads are
"gravely concerned with the well
fare of the small roads,
'The only roads which are oppos-
ing the plan are the Young control
led roads," the brief said.
(Robert S. Young, flnancier, has
allied himself with Otis & Co.
Cleveland banking firm, in seeking
to purchase the sleeping car service
which the Government ordered dl-
vested from its parent, Pullman
Inc. in an antitrust order0
Thus" the brief states, "95 per
cent approves, three per cent has
not acted and the remaining frac-
ton is controlled by the Young
group"
Although only SO pers cent of the
Pullman-carrying roads have be-
come signatories to the proposal
the brief says, another 6 per cent
''have indicated in writing their ap-
proval of the plan of the buying
group, or being in trusteeship, have
applied for court instructions as to
whether they may join the buying
group"
