|Wa||y Campbell Out
To Repeat at | Lanham

Wally Campbell, the leading
point scorer in stock-car racing at
West Lanham Speedway last year,
hopes he has shaken finally the
jinx that has ridden along with
him this season.
Campbell has been out of the
money more often than he's been
in it. He won the 5O-lap feature
race last Friday night-his first
victory In the feature event this
year-and' will be out for dupli-
cate performance tomorrow night.
The program opens at $3.50
o'clock.
Wally has had his share of
troubles. Just two weeks ago en-
gine trouble forced him out of a
50-lap feature after he had nego-
tiated 40 laps and picked up a
commanding lead.
Tommy Coates, president of the
American Racing Club and Sec
ond-leading point scorer at Lam
ham last year, also trails in the
individual scoring department.

WestIoke of Bucs Better Player
Than Records Show, Ted Says

He probably hasn't as much
power as Kiner. But he drives the
ball we'll. And he appears to be
the type of batter who should
drive home plenty of runs during
the season.
The Pirates have had their
troubles winning ball games this
season. They obvisously haven't
the pitching and the general all
around balance to compete with
some of the other teams in the
National League.
But they certainly have a cou-
pie of fine outf1elders in Kiner
and Westlake. And it seems to
me that if Westlake wasn't slight
ly overshadowed by Kiner that he
would receive much more credit for
his ability than he seems to get.
I know I was surprised when
I saw him in action in a regula-
ton game. He seemed to be a far
better player than had been
led to believe from what I had
read about him.
OF course this is not an. un-
usual situation in baseball. The
game is studded with players who
are better all around performers
than appears on the surface. Cases
like Westlake simply illustrate that
it is difficult to analyze any play
er's ability from records alone.
You really have to see them care
fully before you are in a position
to judge them correctly.

you're in the other league.
I guess it was only natural I
should focus my attention on
Kiner. When I saw the Pirates
during the spring training sea-
son, admittedly concentrated on
him. But during an exhibition
game in Pittsburgh a few weeks
ago, I was attracted by the all
around play of Westlake.
Wally looked to me like great
fielder in that game. He got
a good Jump on the ball. And he
displayed a strong throwing arm.
In addition, he showed me that
he packs plenty of power at bat.

City Council
Votes Approval
Of Traffic Light
To Be Installed At
Busy intersection
On Centred Avenue

A crossing of a dangerous in
tersection will have a safety COM
fort soon when a traffic light
will be installed at the inter-
section of Central Ave. and AL
bion st. at the entrance at the
WHY'S Overland plant.
WHY'S workers and those in
surrounding areas were forced
to dart across the busy inter-
section to their means of trans
portation.
City Council last week voted
to have the light installed. Franz
Berlacher, city councilman led
the move in Council to give the
workers protection against the
vehicles moving down Central
Ave. at high rate of speed.
City Council on one previous
occasion told the delegation that
it was a problem for manage
ment at WHY'S Overland to have
a traffic light installed.
After some wrangling and un-
satisfactory action, the commit
tee of Wilys-Overland Unit, of
Local IL, UAW-CIO, solicited
the aid of councilman Berlacher
to have the proposal for the
light up for action before coun-

tect the lives of workers.

miums already paid, shall be
conclusive and binding on all
of the parties hereto"
Just in case any employe
thinks that when he puts $50
a year into this plan he's got
some control, the agreement gets
pretty specific.
Article XVI says:
"(a) The Corporation re-
serves the right at any time
to revoke this Trust in its
entirety"
And furthermore, so there'u
be no misunderstanding, there
is a little more along the same
lines. Article XXVI says, at the
very end of the agreement:
"This trust Is purely volun-
tary on the part of the Cor
poration and it may discOn-
tinue the payments to the
Trust at any time"
Of course, the employe runs
no risk at all. If the Blade re-
vokes the deal at any time, the
employe gets his money back
with just as much interest as
he'd get from a Credit Union at
his Coop. Well, almost as much,
anyway.
And, if everything 6 goes
smoothly, and he is within a
year or two of getting a pen
sion of at least $40 a month, so
he can retire to live a life OF
ease, the Corporation might
NOT revoke the whole deal.
There's always that to think OF.
The details of what an en-
ploye gets for a pension at the
Blade are pretty complicated.
The Journal would have an
alyzed these details if there were
actually a pension. Since, how
ever, there is pension only un-
til Paul Block Junior and the
Corporation decide there isn't
any pension and since such
might be based on the
outcome of the next Davis Cup
match, the humidity, or whether
or not the Corporation runs out
of cigarettes some Sunday morn
ing, the details of what a work
er MIGHT get IF are pretty ac-
ademic.
The Blade is a GOOD place to
work.
Subject to revocation, OF
course.

do plant still authorized to
strike for the locally needed i'm
provements if necessary.
The settlement itself was un-
expectedly good in many re-
spects. One plant had already
signed an agreement - and the
new settlement simply added to
what they had already agreed
to accept. Another plant was on
strike, and won more than it
had struck to get.
But outstanding in the entire
operation was the fact that
beginning had been made on
system-wide bargaining which
should, in time, level out the
plant-by-plant wage and benefit
distinctions.
The agreement runs for two
years from the date of signing,
with a wage reopening in
year.

The first actual step taken,
however, was by the Central
Labor Union (AFL) which, on
July 6, named four men to the

the other unions.
Named were Ray Flory, ex-
Iecutive secretary of the Gu.
who will be chairman of the
committee; Thomas Quinn, busi-
ness agent for the Painters;
Walter Morgan, business agent
for the Street Car workers, and
Walter Gunthrup, editor of the

was chosen.

Guild Considers
Newspaper

The possibility of daily labor
newspaper; the attempt to es-
tablish a non-partisan daily
newspaper in monopoly press
areas, and the establishment of
regional union printing plants
engaged the major attention of
delegates to the 18th a n n u a !
convention of the American
Newspaper Guild, CIO, in WASH
ington, D. c., the latter part of
June.
This b being a non-election
year in the Guild, basic issues
affecting Guild members got a
thorough airing.
Principal among these was
the discussion of the low state
the daily newspapers of the ma,
ton had reached, and plans to
do something about it.
The convention adopted a res
olution which makes it possible
for the Guild to set aside $50, 900
to get a program going in CO.
operation with other unions and
with local committees in mono
poly cities.
First step is likely to be the
establishment of regional print
ing plants. These plants would
be equipped to handle la bor
press work, turning, out labor
weeklies or a daily, handbills adj
vertising work, and-in emer-
gencies, where a city's daily Is
closed by a strike-an interim
daily newspaper itself.
The long range plan, however,
is the recurring search for a
way to give the newspaper
reader a chance to know other
facts than those monopoly pub
fishers are willing to print.
