Osborn Veto Request
On Labor Bill MOI
Solicited By Unions

Governor Osborn's telegram to
President Truman, asking the pres
ident to veto the Taft Hartley bill,
was sent simply because the gov
ernor felt it was his duty to make
the effort in behalf of the workers,
and no union member asked him
to do so.
This action by the governor is
all the more appreciated by union
members in Arizona, because they
had refrained from asking him due
to the fact that the state legis-
lature was in session at the time,
causing extra worries, and the con-
dition of his health seemed to
justify union officials in not max
ing extra demands on him.

Ed Furgol, whose So yesterday in

shots better with Tommy Wright
of Knoxville, Tenn, and George
Payton of Hampton, Va, tied for
second with 1874 and Bobby Locke
among the 135 scorers.

CHICAGO, June THE White
Sox may be stumbling to the re-
mainder OF the league, but to the
Mats they're the hottest things to
scar Chicago since Mrs. O'Leary's
cow kicked over that lamp and
touched off the great confiagration
When the Mats awoke yesterday
morning they found themselves
staring at such headlines as "WeI-
come, Cousins" and Hi, Friends y
The Mats had lost five straight to
the White Sox, who were in mood
to welcome Washington after alb
sorbing wallopings from the Phila-
delphia Athletics.
So the Mats became a bit peeved
irked and all that sort of thing.
They pried four runs from Ed Lopat
In the first two innings here last
night and graSped a 40 lead, but
today the White Sox still are cham
pions of the Mats, who now have
been beaten six straight times by
Chicago.
Mats Get Strong Start.
1t was a peculiar struggle, for in
the final seven innings Lopat braced
to stop the Mats with two tame hits.
Meanwhile the White Sox stirred up
four runs off Sid Hudson, who left
the premises in the fifth inning
then finally obtained the winning
run Off Tom Ferrick in the ninth

NEW YORK. June Middle

brawl that was rip-snorter all the

himself down to 154A pounds-be-
cause it would have cost him q $l5,-

then proceeded to punch the young
ster from Youngstown, Ohio, who is
only welterweight, into exhaus-

Outweighed by five pounds, Janiro
got an "A" for effort from the crowd
of 1876, who Clipped in to a gross
gate of $71,874, for the way he
fought back from the verge of a
Knockout from the sixth round on.
He refused to 60 down until four
seconds from the finish, when he
collapsed and was saved by the bell.
Rumors that La Motta was to lose
were flying around the Garden be-
fore the humping got under way,
and 1t was learned the district at
torney had called several of the
interested parties down to his office,
The only question left by the
match was why 1t was ever made in
