But trade unionists have thus far failed to make an impression on the gate receipts. They have not estab- lished picket lines at the parks, nor have many union men stopped going to see the games. The Athletics are playing unusual hall, and the building trades organiza- tion officers have detided to wait a while before asking) the fans to fore- go any interest in their performance.
