Meetings Of Local
Union SO Changed
To End, 4th Monday

Clarksburg, w. Va. - The at
tendance at our last meeting was
cons darably larger than it has
been for some time. The large turn
out no doubt was due to employees
in one department who, after many
weeks Of wrangling, finally decid-
ed to air their grievances in the
proper manner and present them
before the local for adjustment.
The shop committee handled these
in their usual efficient manner
rendering justice to all parties con-
cerned.
1t is the hope Of the local that
these ills will not accumulate
again for months before they are
brought to the proper place for air
ing, namely, your local meeting.
1t was reported that certain en-
ployees have been charged with
punching out for their buddies at
the time clock. The local does not
condone such practice as it is in
violation of our agreement. We
hope this little reminder will bring
an end to this practice, otherwise
the local will take action.
With a view in mind of bolster
ing the attendance at meetings,
hereafter the local will meet on
the second and fourth Monday of
each month. Members are asked to
make note of this change and pass
the world along in the shop.
President Mazzie appointed a So
cial security committee to keep the
members posted on the laws COW
ering the act. The committee COM
posed of John Fazio, A. Carpino
and Augustine Mazzie will be glad
to impart their knowledge of COW
erage under the plan to all men,
bers who are interested.
Bro. Dave Bevan reported a
meeting has been called for all
officers of AFL unions in Clarks-
burg, to discuss plans for opening
cooperative store here. Plans
will also be discussed at this meet
ing for the forming of Ladies
Auxiliary, sponsored by the Central
Labor Union.
With the Christmas season at
hand, a time when many of us are
forced to do our own shopping,
let's make it a point to request a
clerk who is wearing a union but
ton.
Sisters Virginia Wilcox and Geor-
gia Myers were granted with

Decorators Will
Elect Officers At
The Next Meeting

Local Union 124 nominated Of
ficers at their meeting Tuesday
evening with the election slated to
be held at our next meeting which
falls on Dec. 8. A fine attendance
was on hand for the nomination
and it is just as important that
this same enthusiasm be displayed
at the election. We hope every
member will make it a point to be
present.
Quite a discussion was held re-
garding the high school boys who
work in the shops during the sum-
mer months and fill in as part
time employees during the school
term. There are several angles re-
garding this situation which should
be cleared up before serious trou-
BILE arises.
Don't forget the new shop COM
mittees must be recorded by the
middle Of this month. The penalty
! towering the personnel of these
sGommittees for attendance at union
meetings is still in effect.
Our usual contribution of $500
was made to the COlumbiana Coun-
ty Public Health League. AS is al
ways the case with the members
of Local Union 124, any worth
while endeavor has our support.
There are many ways of finding
and fighting tuberculosis, but it
takes dollars to put them to work.
We take this mean.- banking
all those who so generously con-
tributed to the fund raised for
aiding Sister Mary Hooper.
Through your generosity we were
able to present her with a check
for S304.
Sister Margaret Curley is still on
the sick list but rumors have it
she will soon be back with U.S.
O. C. 124.

BEATEN BOXER
IS SUSPENDED
Mauriello And Manager
Cited By Board In
Massachusetts

BOSTON, March 17.-WP-Tami
Mauriello of New York, who
claims to be the No. / heavy
weight challenger, was suspend
ed indefinitely today by the
Massachusetts Boxing Commission
for trying to slug it out with
Johnny Shkor of Boston after their
bout Friday ended in a technical
knockout victory for Shkor.
The commission also suspended
Mauriello's manager, Lou Schir-
TO, and Shkor's manager, Johnny
Buckley, for "coaching" their
fighters during the bout, which
ended in the eighth round.
When DR.. Isaac Klein of the
Boxing Commission ordered the
fight stopped because of deep
gashes around Mauriello's eyes,
the Bronx heavyweight a amok.
IT can lick the BUM" he shout
ed. 1T can lick the bum with one
hand!"
AS Shkor came out of his corner
to shake hands, Mauriello tried to
continue the, battle. After the in
furiated New Yorker had kicked
and punched Shkor about the
thighs, four handlers and three
policemen managed to pin him
against the ropes.
The Boxing Commission an
nounced that it a not this post
bout argument but the coaching
from the ringside that led to the
managers suspensions.
