The
Sporting Thing
by bf

1t has been called to our attention that Tom
my Sakai's Western Giants will be the defend
ing champions in the coming Northwest Fourth
of July Baseball Tournament. The Giants won
the diadem TIVE consecutive years before the
world was turned into shambe by power-hun-
CRY warlords in Europe and Asia.
But the Giants who slugged their way to
diamond honors are no more Only the rem
nants of that sturdy squad remain Missing will
be such capable performers as Su Taguchi, Grant
Kataoka, George Kumasaka and Shire Yama-
guchi. Yamaguchi, hard-hittng infield star,
was seriously wounded While serving with the
armed forces in Europe, and is now managing
the Nisei Vets in the Puget Sound league.
How well the aging Giants could stave off
the challenging youngsters depends much on
whom they could sign up between now and tour
nament time
Our bunch is the Giants won't make the
grade this season.

Typos Vote
No Contracts

CLEVELAND, Aug. 2!
\ LPA)-The powerful Inter.
national Typographical Unior
/ (AFL) gave its answer to the
Taft-Hartley Act here last
week. That answer was: enc
contracts with any employer ir
the United States"
Championed by President
Woodruff Randolph, the new
policy was adopted, without a
dissenting vote, at the Typos
89th international convention -
held in Cleveland.
Instead of contracts, the ITU
will rely upon Conditions OF
Employment" to be posted in
each unionized newspaper plant
and job shop.
No Law Violation
The union emphasized that
this policy did not constitute a
violation of the law, but merely
an avoidance of its fangs and
pitfalls.
A resolution adopted by the
convention laid down the rule
that existing contracts will not
be renewed. nor new ones bt
signed until free collective bar
gaining is again recognized" A
standard condition of employ
ment" form is to be supplied by
the international to locals, and
that will be uniform except for
local wage scales and practices
Members are to refuse to work
except where an employer ac
cepts these conditions, the reso-
luton specified. Thus, the Ty-
pos will, in effect, be enforcing
the "closed shop" by direct ac'
ton instead of by contract.
Collective bargaining will be
carried on "to the extent rec
ognized by law" and terms
agreed upon may be included ir
the conditions of employment
The Taft Hartley Act, it was
p ointe d out, specifically sets
forth that neither side is com.
PEELED to sign contract or agree
to any proposal.
BY this decision, the union,
one of the oldest in the nation,
ran the curtain down on a cen
tury.old policy of entering into
written contracts.
The unions stand may lead
to strikes and lockouts, where
publishers choose to get tough,
but Typo leaders declared they
are prepared for any eventual

The telephone strike now in ef- feet all over the United States has not curtailed the activities

Mon day, the first day of the strike, saw reduction of telephone calls between Alaska and the U. s. of about 60 percent due to the fact that the Telephone Company was unable to provide service over it's long distance circuits to points beyond Seattle The Telephone Company advised the ACS this afternoon however, that they ex- pected to be able to clear incom- ing calls from Alaska to various points in the US. effective this date
 Calls to Alaska via ACS radio circuits from telephone booths in the delivery offices of the ACS in the Seattle Federal Office Build ing were not affected by the strike. Some slight delays are occurring in delivery of telegrams which normally are phoned to addresses in the states

Alaska Test Maneuvers
 Proves New Equipment
 Necessary, Frigid Areas

WASHINGTON, April 9-LR- The War Department said today Alaska test maneuvers have prov ed the Army must develop a lot of new equipment if it expects to be an efficient fighting force in frigid climates.
 Summarizing findings of Task Forces "Williwaw' and 'Frigid'' which will return soon from bases on Adak and at Fairbanks, the Department said the equipment in- cludes:
 A light, portable shelter sturdy enough to stand heavy rain, fine snow and hurricane winds.
 A motor oil which won't freeze at temperatures lower than 30 be- low zero.
 Clothing which is warm without being too bulky to permit free dom of movement
 A tundra and mountain-c crossing vehicle which can carry personnel and supplies and is sturdy enough to need little maintenance.
 A self-heating can for rations.
 A different kind of tank from these used in temperate zones.
 The current Armored Cavalry Journal quotes Col. Paul V. Kane, who commanded "Frigid' as say ing flatly that tanks are thorough ly impractical in the Arctic"
 Critics of such armor say tanks quickly bog down in the soft Aleut- ian tundra, the rough Alaska ter rain immobilizes them, the lubri- cants freeze, and 60 degrees be- low zero seems to be the breaking point for their crews.
 The Journal account said Kane estimated a man loses his efficien- cy at the rate of 3 percent for every degree under zero. One of ficer spent six hours in a tank at sub-zero temperatures and report ed his efficiency at the end of that periord as nil.
 Maj Myron Johnson, tank test officer of .'Frigid," and Capt. George J. Skeets, commanding Company B of the 66th Tank Bat talion disagreed with Col Kane. They said the present tank can be modified to SurmOunt Arctic difficulties
 The War Department disclosed that "Williwaw." will sail April Is from Adak for Seattle, Wash. "Frigid" will return in two groups. The first will leave Fairbanks on April 18 for San Francisco. The second will embark May 10 for Seattle.
