WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-(P)-
A possible first step toward even
tual elimination of most "specta
tor sports' activities on the part
of service athletes was seen
Thursday in the - cancellation of
all competitive football schedules
at schools of the air corps techni
cal training command.
The cancellation order came
fromMaJ. Gen. Walter B. Wea
ver, commanding general, whe
wrote the various commanding ,
officers that competitive foot
ball would Interfere serioasly
with the argent program of
training mechanics and other
technicians for the air forces.
Disclosure of the order followed
Undersecretary of War Robert P.
a statement earlier in the day by
Patterson that constant study was
being given to the cutting down
of "spectator sports" which draw
upon athletes in military training.
Patterson was repaying to press
conference questions about a re
cent statement by Commander
Gene Tunney. navy director of
physical training. The ex-heavy
weight boxing champion had said
that "you can't train a man to be
a fighter by having him play foot
ball and baseball."
Although there was no of
ficial connection between the
undersecretary's statement and
Weaver's order, speculation Im
mediately arose as to whether
the grid cancellations might be
the forerunner of a widespread
movement affecting service
sports.
There was no ban on intra
mural football or other sports.

No-Axis-Aid
Spirit Cuts
Forest Fires
Determination of Oregonians to
give no aid to the axis, together
with the work of his organization
and a favorable season have re
duced considerably the number
of fires in Oregon forests this
year, Eugene McNulty, executive
secretary of the Keep Oregon
Green committee, declared Thurs
day as he addressed the Salem
Lions club.
Every person In the state should
be vitally Interested In the pro
gram of the committee he repre
sents since its success would
make available to production of
war materials a great store- of
manpower otherwise required to
fight fires, he maintained.
The Oregon state green guard,
comprised by more than 5000 boys
and girls who have pledged to
watch for fires and to expend el
forts in eliminating fire hazards,
was explained by McNulty.
Reports from the International
convention at. Toronto, Can, were
presented by Monroe Cheek,
president and Harry Scott sec
retary of the Salem Lions club.
Germans See
New Weapon
BERN, Switzerland, Aug. 20.-(JP)-A
Berlin dispatch to Die Tat
Thursday said Americans in the
commando raid on Dieppe tried
out for the first time a special
weapon described as a one-man
tank "containing high explosives
in five separate compartments."
It said the tanks were directed
toward important fortifications
and advanced alone with explo
sives set off by an electrical timer.
This was taken to mean that the
operator left the tank before the
explosion although the dispatch
did not specify.
The Berlin report claimed many
of the tanks were exploded pre
maturely by German gunfire.
