...Senate and House Labor Committees the past fortnight, was to pass substantially as written. Sidetracked thus was Senator Borah's proposed amendment to bar monopoly-made goods from interstate commerce. But as C. I. O.'s John L. Lewis and A.

Mexico's sleepy old CROM (Regional Confederation of Mexican Labor), whose head, Luis Morones, is a good friend of A. F. of L.'s William Green, revived sufficiently to snipe at Leader Toledano as a "Communist."

...following Monday, Curtiss lost a tough decision to Brown 4-2 although holding the Bruins to six scattered hits, and last Thursday allowed the hard-hitting Big Green but five base knocks to win 4-2. With only a one day rest Curtiss started the Tufts game Saturday. Until tiring in the ninth, he gave the Jumbos four hits for a single run.
