The wrestling opened up with a battle royal. Hight ,,;of the best Srunt and groan artists were in the ring at one time. Frankie Rae met Stan Alford in the first half of the main event. More Fhat Lefeaux Did Not See Since coming to the Soviet Union I have been much impressed with their method of hospitalization. I went through three hospitals in Vladivostok and haye been through three so far in Moscow. Last weel I sat in the telephone room of the central emergency hospital here, talking with the Switch board operators, A call came in and operators instantly clocked the time. In a few seconds an answer- ing signal told that the doctor was leaving the dressing room. Another short period and a second signal brought the word that doctor ana two attendants were leaving the buildins. Then a third button was pressed and the ambulance was leaying the garage and as it sped through the open gate into the street the fourth and Jast signal announced to the operator that just two min- one of the utes had elapsed since the call ‘eame in. No more calls came for several minutes and one of the me that it was Emergency operators informed a rather quiet day. calls averaged 170 each twenty- four hours. ist In just sixteen minutes from the time of the first call the doc- tor (a woman), walked in and while taking off her coat an- nounced that the run was finished and the patient was being taken eare of in one of the wards. In this instance it was only a case of fainting, the cause of which the doctors were trying to ascertain as I left the telephone room. After putting on a long, white cloak and cap I was shown three They wrestled four 4-minute rounds. Stan was awarded a fall on a foul in the second when Irankie, after being warned for his dirty tactics, knocked Stan downed with a closed fist. Frankie came out fighting in the fourth and threw Stan with a body slam, then used a bar arm and body press to force his opponent’s shoulders to the mat. This ended in a dray. u The second half of the main event saw two old performers, Bill Clarke and Kit Carson fighting it out for four 5-minute rounds. Bill had the edge all the way through, but could not pin Kit. This wound up in a draw. Scotty Jackson met the Duke in the semi-windup. They wrestled three 5-minute rounds. Scotty won in the ‘third when he threw his opponent with a Jes trip and made him concede the only fall Dirty of the match. Bill Masson and Bobby Carnell wrestled three 5- minute rounds to a draw in the opener. On the boxing ead of the card Frenchy Beaudin, 139, and Ralph Glarke, 140, featured in the main event. Ralph showed excellent foot- work and carried the fight to Frenchy who let Ralph do all the work. He seemed sure of his ring experience, and he would have got the decision in anything but an exhibition. Leo Sevedro met Mike BGanich in the opener. They boxed three 2- minute rounds, Mike getting the decision.

The third room was fitted up for taking moving pictures of an operation. ; I also witnessed here the taking of blood from a dead man to be preserved and used later for blood transfusion. To Soviet medicai science goes the eredit for the discovery that blood may be used in this way. About two litres can be taken from one person. It can be taken up to Six hours after death and may be preserved as long as twenty-eight days. I was shown the stock on hand beine kept in a refrigerator where the right temperature is main- tained. There are five of these emer- gency hospitals in Moscow and, as T understand, are all connected by a eentral telephone system. They handle every thing of an emergency nature where speed is urgent, accident, maternity cases, heart failure, etc. In all 17 ambulances are al- ways ready to take care of Mos- cow's emergency needs. I have nlso been much impressed with the hospitals connected with the large factories. They are complete in every detail including dentistry, and it is free to all. Ww. GB. NICHOLSON. Victories Won ‘By Sit-Downs Bakers Rout Tear- Gassers with Stale Bread DETROIT. — (FP) — With sit- downs to the right of them and stay-ins to the left of them, Detroit industrialists, long accustomed to thinking of their city as an open shop paradise, were beginning to see in organized labor a force with which they must deal. The realization is reflected in new favorable settlements at local plants, made in an effort to keep the spectacular strike tactic from spreading. At Kelsey-Hayes Wheel Co.’s two plants, the United Auto- mobile Workers of America won an agreement for a 75c minimum hourly wage for all workers. Other demands are to be negotiated.

At the Gordon bakery, 300 sit downers, target for teargas bombs hurled by deputies seeking to evict them, replied with loaf for bomb. The deputies got the worst of it and retreated under a barrage of stale bread, while strikers opened windows to ventilate the plant. Later they left the bakery after the company pledged to open negotia- tions, keep the plant closed until the strike is over and rehire strikers without discrimination on settle- ment. WHAT INDIA—R.

Lab or Martyr ToBeHonored State Troops Dispatched to Maintain Right to Picket CHESTER, Pa. —(FP)—Furious elub and fist battling in front of the Sun Shipbuilding Co., where hired thugs in an early morning charge caused the death of one Striker and serious injury to i8 others, climaxed a week's strike at Chester, called by the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuild- ing Workers of America. Rapid developments followed the clash: 1. Union men planned a mass labor funeral for their 65-year-old martyred brother, James lL. Youngs. 2. Gov. Earle despatched state troopers to the scene with orders to maintain the right to picket. 3. The union filed charges with the Nati Labor Relations Board against Pres. John G. Pew of the Sun Co. for failing to bargain col- lectively. 4. Labor Department Conciliator James &. Dewey came to investi- Sate and report the dispute to Sec. Perkins. Led by a semi-professional pur and football player, Lewis ‘Aggie’’ Campbell, in the “I-SBreak-Strikes’’ role, some 1,000 $5-a-day strike- breakers charged the picket lines in the fatal encounter.
