fifth and Branca's effectiveness
evaporated with shocking sudden
ness.
Lindell Comes Through.
He walked George McQuinn, then
nicked Bill johnson with pitched
ball to fill the bases. In that crisis
Johnny Lindell lashed a double
down the 1eft-field line, scoring Di
Maggie and McQuinn, and a five
run production was under way.
Branca walked Phil Rissuto to
refill the bases and at that point
Manager Bucky Harris decided to
depart from routine baseball. He
dispatched Bobby Brown to the plate
as a pinch-hitter for Shea, who had
permitted only two hits in five
innings. 1t was a courageous gamble
made in full knowledge he would be
exposed to the criticism of grand
stand managers, but Bucky was 60
ing for big inning and he got it.
When Branca threw two balls to
Brown he was replaced by Behr-
man, who walked Bobby anyway,
scoring johnson. Robinson scooped
up George Stirnweiss' grounder and
forced Lindell at, the plate, but
Tommy Henrich's single to left
scored Rizzuto and Brown before
Berra and Di Maggie flied out.
New Yorks only hit, exclusive OF
the fifth inning, was delivered by
Rizzuto, who singled in the seventh
of Casey, but the Yankees meager
attack was sufficient, for the Dodg-
ers were accumulating only six hits,
all singles, off Shea and Page.
Walker Scores Reiser.
With one out in the first inning
Robinson walked and stole second.
When Reiser tapped to Shea. Rob-
inson was trapped and run down.
But on that play Reiser streaked
to second and scored when Dixie
Walker dropper single in left.
Page, whose brilliant relief pitch
ing in the regular season prompted
Harris to sacrifice Shea for the sake
of a possible rally, wasn't spec
tacular. He yielded run in the
sixth when Robinson, who had
forced Ed Stanky, score on Carl
Furillo's single after moving to sec
ond when Reiser neat out tap to
McQuinn.
Reese singled with one out in
the seventh, stole second as Pinch
hitter Ed Miksis famed, and scored
when Page poured wild pitch past
Berra. The Dodgers still were hop
ing when Furillo walked to start
the ninth, but Page retired Bruce
Edwards, Cookie Lavagetto and
Reese In order.

It discourages collective bargaining by encouraging individual bargain ing, though our experience from 1920 to 1929 proved that individual bargaining can only result in re- duction of wages and consequent depression.
 Tt revives company unioniSm as a method by which the employ CT may sit on both sides of the bar gaining table. It Jumps together for punitive action the criminal or slothfu1 employee and the honest and conscientious worker; it de- priveS the patriotic citizen of long established rights in order to pun ish the misguided.
 ''The bill Is not designed to help employers but to punish labor. It strikes at the established Federal policy of encouraging collective bargaining, to make of the Federal Government mere police court, taking over functions which have, with few exceptions, been we'll handled by States and local com munities.
 While preaching economy, the majority would enormously in- crease the size of the Federal es- tablishment devoted to the handling of labor problems. While denounc- ing bureaucracy, the majority would set up two new independent agencies within the executive branch of the Government. While they decry Federal intervention in local affairs. the majority would transfer from State and local au- thority to the Federal Govern ment, or would duplicate within the Federal Government, matters traditionally left to State action.

 "While pretending to seek indus trial peace, the majority have in- cluded in their bill proposals which would unsettIe labor relations, make illegal countless heretofore accepted industrial practices, de- stroy many well-recognized legal rights, and bring to labor relations confusion and chaos which must result in bitter and costly strikes.
 We cannot believe that such program can commend itself to men conscious of their responsibilities"
 The minority report analysed the bill section by section, condemned the decision to deal with the en- tire labor program in a single mea- sure and deplored the postponement of legislation to improve workers security.

ALPHA XI DELTA RUNNING OUT

Burlington, Vt.-It looks as though Alpha Ri Delta's na- tional office will have to wait for a new college generation at the University of Vermont before they can re-activate their chapter there.
 Last year the members of the local chapter unwittingly pledged a young colored stu dent, not because they did not know she was colored but be- cause they felt she qualified. When the national office heard of this they said witting- ly, that kind of thing was sim ply not done in Alpha Ri Delta. They either had to drop the pledges or have the whole chap ter placed on probation.
 Full indication of the fact that the girls are still holding their ground came last week, when its members took no part in rushing activities which means that there will be no new members this year.
