Dean James R. Palmer Paul Hill sports of 659 By PALMER Well, Brethern, I don't want to put myself in the class of the imbecile who says: "I told you so," but what I had to say about the Golf Tournament in the last issue just about came true. You timid boys who held out sure have a lot to be remorseful about, but I'm sure you will make amends next year. Let's make the next one bigger and better so get the clubs out on the links and start training now. Now as to BASEBALL, let's have a meeting at the office on say Monday, September 30, at 8 p.m. All of you fellows that play ball and will stand by the organization in that capacity be here and we will set the balance of a baseball committee and get the ball rolling. Just pass the word along to the other ball playing brothers in case they don't happen to see this column as to the meeting, etc. Now there is a dance floating in the air and as soon as we can get the ground crew ready we will land it. It will be in the near future so watch the mails for further information. I have a large list of requests for every kind of sports and entertainment in existence, but will have to take them up as time permits. Bowling and handball will be on the calendar very soon. P. S. (Prime Sports): Don't forget the Baseball meeting. Labor Day Message Cameramen who did not hear President William Green's Labor Day message will be interested in the following excerpts therefrom: "Today is the forty-eighth anniversary of the establishment of Labor Day, the purposes of which are to consider the successes and failures of the year just passed and prepare plans for advancement of labor in the future. "We find where the unions are the strongest, prosperity is the greatest. We also find that living conditions are better in places other than where intense antagonism is shown by the employers and other interests. "Collective bargaining is coming to be more and more accepted as a preventative of labor disputes. It has averted many strikes and brought peace to industries that otherwise would have been in continual turmoil. "The five-day week has ma,rvelous support. More than 1,200,000 members of organized labor enjoy the five-day week and many employers who refuse to deal with labor have also adopted the shorter work week. More employees and more leisure mean greater consumption of products produced. "We face the future unafraid and with every confidence will continue to struggle for greater and greater advancement of humanity." BORN IN OCTOBER Here is a list of names of the gang born in October (members of Local 659). They are a cocky lot and they have asked the editor to tell the September bunch that they accept September's defy and are ready to beat 'em at any game, especially golf. The birth-stone of the sons of October is decomposed granite; their favorite fish is cod fish being born under the sign of Pisces, and their colors are pale prune and chameleon. They are inclined to be temperamental and prefer cigars to chewing tobacco. These people usually become cameramen if they live to be over seventeen. As they grow older their variable density gradually decreases. Their favorite confection is sauer-kraut. Here they are: Ernest A. Bachrack, Clifford Blackstone, Frank H. Booth, Donald H. Brigham, Sherman Clark, Roscoe S. Cline, Max Constant, Ernest J. Crockett, Harry Davis, Joseph A. Dubray, Carroll D. Dunning, Arthur Edeson, Ed Elwert, Frank D. Evans, Edw. P. Fitzgerald, Frank B. Good, Clarence Graves, Carl E. Guthrie, Edwin M. Hammeras, Earl R. Hinds, Alexander P. Kahle, George F. Kelley, James V. King, Roy Kluver, Reggie Lanning, A. G. W. LaShelle, Paul A. Lockwood, Art Lloyd, E. L. McManigal J. Earl Metz, Nicholas Musuraca, Arthur W. Rice, Park J. Ries, Jackson J. Rose, Look for This Label United Hatters of North America Label On all felt and straw hats you purchase. It is printed on buff-colored paper and is sewed in the hat under the sweatband opposite the bow. No hat is union made unless it bears this label. The Union Label is not only a sign of wholesome, clean standards of manufacture, but it is a symbol of Americanism, as the Union Label appears only on American-m a d e products. Adolph L. Schafer, Roger C. Shearman, John Shepek, Jr., Oliver Sigurdson, Frank Tanner, Robert Tobey, George Unholz, Willard VanEnger, Michael Walsh, Frederick E. West and L. Guy Wilky. o DEMAND THE LABEL Loyalty to an ideal requires performance in small things as well as great. The Union Label deserves the allegiance of every unionist. Thinking you should buy union-labeled goods, without doing it, gets you nowhere. The same is true of patronizing shops where the union card is not displayed or union buttons are not worn. o ROSE TO TIFFANY-STAHL Jackson Rose has just signed a contract with Tiffany-Stahl and will henceforth exercise complete supervision of that virile young organization's photographic department. This contract is a just recognition of Brother Rose's well known ability as an artist and an expert in cinematography. Jack is one of the pioneers of the industry and has a fine background of achievement. Of Course Tillie: "Did your room-mate have a good time at the cameramen's dance?" Annie: "I think she did. I noticed when she came home that she had broken a shoulder strap and burned a hole in her new dress."
