MEDFORD VTTT; TRIBUNE, MEDTORD, OREGON. SUNDAY, 1FGCST 13, 1933. 'Umps 'Lays Down Law For Team Capta ins in G-C Baseball Battle "And, remember, no hitting In tfte clinches' Umpire J. J. tinmen (center) tells Captains George Hen Bel man (left) and J. Verne Shangie (right) of the Chamhrr of Commerce membership team aa Monday, zero hour, nrars for the big "game. By ROY 8HREVE. Henselman 'S Eoacs and Shangle's Rogues are practicing behind closed gatea, aa time neara for opening game In the Medford Chamber of Commerce drive for new members. It would surely do your heart good to see the way these two teama are training for the big game next week. s Both teams are keeping a dark se cret aa to their training camps, but it Is generally understood that they meet during noon hours, have skull practice and lift heavy weights and toss the medicine ball. The writer had a personal Interview with Captain Henselman In his of fice Saturday morning. - When enter ing his office I was surprised to see him and M. N. Hogan flipping ink wells and cuspidors back and forth at each other and when I Inquired as to Just what they were doing, they informed me it waa Just a little prac tice to keep the eyea and arms in trim. Captain Shangle has a sworn affi davit to the effect that Shortstop Collins and Center Fielder Thorndyke are both Ineligible on account of the fact that Colllna played three years in the Texas league and Thorndyke in the Corn Belt league. Commis sioners Dr. J. J. Emmena and Ralph Woodford are investigating the com plaint carefully. Captain Bhangle says his team la rounding into shape nicely except Jennings TIRES easily, Foy has a slight INCOME-COMPLEX, Jack Por ter, .right fielder, has a slight touch of BOARDFEET, E. E. Wilson, first baseman, is losing weight under tho HARD-WARE of daily training, Orant says his pitching arm la fit as fid dle and ready for any POLICY the opposition may suggest. Heath, Leon ard and Huson, who comprise the bal ance of the team are hot and raring to go. Henselman hunt much to aay about his boys, except he Is & little provoked about the affidavit, habeas corpus, and change of venue that Captain 8h angle has asked the com missioners to Investigate. He claims this is an old trick of the game of baseball and often result in de moralizing a team. He predicts, how ever. It la acting differently on his team, and they are more determined than ever. J. C. Carle, right fielder, had a poutte spell yesterday when Captain Henselman called him for not get ting Into his right position for prac tice. Carle claimed he was In the right field and Henselman claimed he was In the wrong field. Sam Col ton, bat boy, handed Carle a bat and Henselman ran into the dug-out. Captain Shangle almost benched Fred Heath, Jr., when he caught htm in secret conversation with Justin Smith of the Bosca. It waa Just a little misunderstanding, it waa found out later, as Heath waa only trying to sell Smith a first aid kit. All the boys look good, their uni forms are In excellent condition, ex cept Hogan's of the Bosca, who seem to have a little trouble keeping his socks up. They are all ready for the big game to start next Monday and all are as cool as a piece of restau rant toast. Watch for the signal.

XSME MBE Sjf WE DO OUR PART Here's What YOU Can Do I To Help President Roosevelt s National Administration Recovery Plan MAYBE you're -wondering just what all this talk of NRA means, and if there's some place in the plan for you. There IS. Here's the dope. Business is better. All over the country, men are going back , to work. "FINE," says the President, "AS FAR AS IT GOES." But, the President thinks that unemploy ment and business can pick up much faster. The NRA (National Recovery Administra tion) has worked out a plan to speed things up. The President wants YOUR help to make it work 100 per cent. You are asked to try the plan from now until the end of the year. In a nut-shell, this is what he urges: "Split up the existing work to put more men on the payroll and raise the wages for the shorter working-shift so that no worker is getting less than a liv ing wage." Everybody will give up something. Every body will gain something in the end. The worker is asked to accept a shorter working week to give some neighbor a chance to earn his living. He will work less! have more time for play; and fewer unemployed relatives will be dependent on his help. Business is asked to split-up work and add to payrolls so that jobs and pay envelopes can take the place of charity and contribu- tions this winter. Present profits may be temporarily sacrificed while next year's cus tomers are being built. Never before has there been such a simple and definite plan for wiping out unemploy ment and restoring the purchasing power of all the people. If we all join together, act at once, unemployment might easily be licked by Labor Day! Sign the agreement. Display the NRA Members seal if you're a business man. Dis play the NRA Consumer's seal if a consumer. Everybody has a part to play. THE EMPLOYERS PART Bign the President's Reemployment Agreement. Join with every other employer in the land to make jobs through shorter hours and distribut ing work. Raise wages to the minimum sug gested by the President, at least Abolish child labor. Cooperate with employees in peaceful adjustment of opinions. Remember an unem ployed man is a poor customer for you In tho loaf run. More and fatter pay envelopes is the bft way to boost the public's buying power and row owm buiineM. THE PUBLIC'S PART Support those employers and employees who do their parts to put breadwinners back to work. Patronize the stores and services displaying the NRA sign; it means they fully comply with the President's plan. THE EMPLOYEES PART Do your best on the job. Share your hours with the neighbor who has no work now. Cooperate with the NRA to make this plan a success. Remember more can bo done now for workers through this cooperation of 126,000,000 peoplo than oan over be dona by discord and dispute. This Advertisement Contributed by the Medford Mai!
