That erstwhile little ring general
nd former king of the welter
weight, Fritzie Zivfc, sold his
station wag, packed his duffle
bag and marched off to the wars
tonight buck private. .
He was the same irrepressible
Fntzeroo as he received his or
ders from the chairman of local
board No. 9, out in the "strip'
district where he crew iro ami
first learned to use his fists. '
"Now It's a real fight, eh Frit
zie?" said Chairman James "Mur

skinny little kid.
"Sure, with nothing barred.
Thumbs, head, anything goes. No
rules. No referee,", he quipped.

Woodburn's Jiggs Burnett passed his physical exam in Portland
this week and was accepted by the navy. He's now on his 21-daT3-er-more"
brush-up period, which will almost give him time enough
to finish up the school term with the Bulldogs . . .Jiggs brings to mind
another reason why it's said a certainty that less than half the state's
prep coaches of the present (to
say nothing of the college men
tor) will be back at their respec
tive posts come September. The
new over-26 insert in the state's
draft scheme may alter that per
centage considerably, however, as
most of the athletic brains are f:
past the quarter - century mark. &

Muscle Biz Strictly on Boom Side
. - No secret that the Tuesday r assies have made a successful come
back in our town, and little wonder. The bicep boys have been ex
erting themselves as they-never did before, hence much more excit
able and hilarious action for .the
Owen hasn't deflated his larder a
what he himself claims "the best lightheavyweight grapplers in the
business." There actually hain't been a bum card offered .here since
the comeback started last June.
But our town isn't the only one catering to the crunchers. Blame
it on the war and the physical fitness trend or whatever you like,
but the mat game is strictly on the boom side all over the country.
You have only to talk to the present crop of northwest circuit glad
iators to realize it And the slow and 'Cumbersome heavies are doing
ken, too. Recently in St Louis one Sandor Szabo, one of the better
pachyderms, drew 13,000 through the gates -not bad for a town that
doesn't even support favorably two major league baseball clubs. .
And with the boom has come a new trend in colorful rassling
monickers also adaptable to the war, viz: "Blockbuster' Talon,
'Blitzkrieg Bashor (unrelated to
knowledge) and "Howitzer" Hanson. Timely hsndles, no less, and
much more attractive than .those
"Syrian Assassin," etc
Far as Ifogul Owen, is concerned, however, they can keep their
heavyweights elsewhere. Ha goes strictly for the 170-190 pounders
because of the speed angle. "Hell, them big donkeys can't get out of
. their own way," chirps Donald. "The lightheavies are fast and can
give you 2 to 1 more action.";

and will no longer skipper the -Fort Lewis .Warriors baseballers- .

No club can lose men like
Charley Keller, Frank Crosetti,
Bill Dickey, Joe Gordon, Bill
Johnson and Man us Russo and
pretend to be the same. But
fine pitching staff, good Infield
and fair outfield figure to make
the Yanks pennant ' contenders
as usual.
Pitching is McCarthy's strong
suit. In addition to Chandler and
Bonham whose impending indue
uons nave - been delayed, are
Hank Borowy, Atlety Donald and
BIu Zuber, who figure to be
starters along with Walt DubieL
a 16-game winner at Newark and
possibly Joe Page, southpaw,
who won 14 for the same dub.
Lefty Johnny Johnson, of Kan
sas City, has looked good in brief
appearances as has Floyd ) "Bill'
Bevens, who may help Jim Turner
take .up the fireman' job left
open by the retirement of Ford
ham Johnny Murphy; Ed Roser,
giant righthander who won 12 on
the farm at Newark, and Al Lyons,
a pitcher-outfielder from Kansas
City, are other staff members.
McCarthy is high on George
Stirnweiss, who is taking Joe
Gordon's place at second aftes an
unimpressive rookie season in
1943. Kick Etten is back at first
and Rookie Don Savage from
Newark has been installed as third
baseman. . Shortstop goes to Os
car Grimes, bench-warmer last
year, with Mike MUosevich, of
Kansas City,. ready to fill in any
place in the infield when needed.-.-
