NEW YORKi Jwu 13-(Wide
World)-This ' Is one . of those
Ideas that makes you blurt when
you hear it: "Why didn't I think
of .that?" The
answer is that
it is so absurdly
obvious and log
ical, and timely.
Most timely,
as it is the sug
gestion . that a
plaque be plac
ed in the base
ball hall of
fame at Cbop
erstown, NY, to
honor the mem
ory of Edward
WMtaey Martta
L. Grant, the only major league
player to be killed in action in
the first world war.
It's a hand-me-down sugges
tion. coming first from J. J. Ma
honey, a St. Louis fan, and re
lavd in a piece by J. Roy Stock
ton. SL Louis scribe, but the
idea is good enough to steal.
" The only difficulty in its ap
plication right now is that many
of the baseball writers whose
ballots name the newcomers to
the hall of fame already have
sent In their choices for this year
is Grant,' a quiet, well-educated
man in whom patriotism burn
ed as a hot coal, left the roster
f the New York Giants after
the 1915 season to attend the
officers' training camp at
Flattsburg, NY, where he was
commissioned a captain.
He went to France with the
first embarkation of American
troops, and lost his life Oct. 4,
1918, in the Argonne forest when,
as acting major attempting to
lead a battalion to the rescue of
the-famed "lost battalion," he
was struck , by a shell.
On his baseball career alone
Grant probably doesn't rate with
the game s immortals. He was
good, journeyman ball player
who never batted .300 in his ma
or league career, and were it not
for his patriotic fervor which re
sulted in a hero's death his
would be just another name in
the long list of athletes, long
since forgotten.
Bat Eddie Grant's contribu
tion to baseball goes deeper
than mere natural ability. He
typlflef something which base
ball as a whole would like to
have yon believe la a compon
ent part of the fame: the spir
it of patriotism and self-sacrifice.
'.-
Baseball Is proud of Eddie
Grant The very fact that no
comment on the game's contri
bution in the first World war is
complete without mention of his
name signifies the esteem in
which his memory Is held. And
it would seem only right that
anyone whose name means so
much should have a place on the
honor roH.
Were it not for Eddie Grant
major league baseball might be
embarrassed in trying to explain
why, with its hundreds of young,
healthy men, only one made the
supreme sacrifice in action. There
was only one other death of a
major leaguer in active service,
Marcus Mflligan of the Pitts-
. burgh club was killed in an air
plane accident.
. So. from a purely selfish
standpoint, Eddie Grant la the
talking point for baseball In
time of national stress. "Look
at Eddie Grant," baseball wtU
say as Its clincher to any ar
gument, and when baseball us
ee Eddie Grant as the emblem
Of 1U patriotism is seems ea
$iy fitting that he be placed
kJgfci among these who made
the greatest eentrlbntlen te
the
No, Eddie Grant, the ball play
r, doesn't belong In the hall of
, lame. But Eddie Grant, ball play
er and patriot, deserves a niche.
if only as the game's contribu
tion to greater game.

the four-day 72-hole battle over
the green acres of Hillcrest

Between the army and the lo

mentor of Willamette's oft-

fortunate to floor a team by the
close of the current season if
misfortune keeps knocking on the
door up Bearcat way as consist
ently as it has the past two
weeks. !
First it was the case of big;
Bob Carson, high-scoring, high-j
tempered center who answered
the call to the army air corps
during Christmas vacation, then.
on the eve of Willamette's initial
1942 debut in defense of their
Northwest conference title word
came from the Bearcat lair that
Maple's two' flossy forwards,
Sumner Gallaher, and Glen Wal
den would not be In suit tonight
when toe Salem collegians cross
the river to engage Linfieid at
McMlnnville. I
The latter has been ordered by
his physician: to abandon maple
court activity! for the duration of
toe lesson, while Gallaher may
be laid up for several more days
with a severe case of influenza.
The Bearcats, who have won
more cnamplonshipa than the
other five conference members
combined nine in all will enter
tomorrow night's fame with lin
fieid in an underdog role for the
first time in many years of hoop
competition 'between the rival
Institutions. 1
Drastic changes in Willamette's
starting lineup are expected as a
result of the; loss of Maple's two
starting forwards, with Earl
Toolson probably being moved
up from the guayd position to
which he. was switched - at the
start of the current season.
