Then she was sent from the compartment, and the committee reconsidered _ j her case for an hour.

Abolition of Vacations Urged! ySVi) ' 1 1 f “f / ll rWVnI Wl Asx V B L $k q =l^ : #/ X HSw &%rl *>>—•> yj 4MW IP B 'll'. .♦ It has been proposed that workers of the world unite in a movement to abolish vacations. Many have come to the opinion that thia insidious custom is merely a device of employers to keep workers satisfied with their jobs, happy to be back after their annual twoweek excursion! One slaves for weeks beforehand to get enough work ahead and enough money together to take the traditional trip. Domestic battles ensue as to where the vacation will be spent, usually ending in defeat for the paymaster And more often than not tlie whole event proves a fearful dud. One returns to th<*job. tired anti broke, to find accumulated work piled up, and the weather hotter than ever. But even such a spectacle is a relief when the thought occurs that it won’t be necessary to take a vacation for another year!

JOE DIMAGGIO OUT OF SLUMP Rookie Outfielder Leads Yankees Out Os Slump New York. July 24.— tU.R) — Joe I j Di Maggio's bat is booming again , 'and the New York Yankees are hack in the win column today. I The lean, lithe rookie outfielder who sets the tempo for the New i Yorkers as truly as Babe Ruth did in his heyday has come out of the slump that followed his flop in the 'all-star game at Boston July 7. Some predicted that Joe would be marred permanently by his collapse in the inter-league classic, when he went hitless in five times lat bat and booted two drives to contribute to the National league all-star’s 4-3 victory. It looked so for a couple of i weeks, but the past two days Joe] i has cracked out three home runs ! and a pair of singles to push six i tallies over the plate and warn the j 1 critics he’s on the warpath again. | The firgt of the trio of four-bag-gers was made for a losing cause on Wednesday. But Joe's two homers and single driving in a j total of four runs paced the Yanks . to a 15-3 victory over the St. Louis : Browns yesterday as the New Yorkers ended a three-game los-; i ing streak and stretched their, lead over second-place Cleveland; to eight games. The Indians lost to the Boston; Red Sox, 9-8, although outhitting their opponents. 18-13. Detroit held! lon to third plan* as Schoolboy-

Rowe registered a 2-0 shutout over the Philadelphia Athletics. PitchVernon Kennedy won his own game with a single in the eighth as Chicago defeated Washingion. 7-6. | The National league fight tightened as the second-place St. Louis ! Cardinals defeated the New York Giants. 4-2, while the first place Chicago Cubs lost to Brooklyn. 6Pittsburgh replaced the Giants in third place as Cy Blanton fan- ' ned eight to whip the Philadelphia i Phillies. 10-1. The Boston Bees deI seated Cincinnati, 4-0.
