what could the coaches do to help

u.wari.itau...gu.Mwc
given by officers of the army and
navy qualified to speak on this
subject They gave us our answer
and military officials have em
phasized the importance of this
answer many times since. Here
it is:
Keep Boys In School
We were advised to keep boys
in school until they are called: to
tell them of military training pro
grams open to them while they are
in school, and above all to see that
every boy engagea in an intensive
physical fitness program with spe
cial emphasis on competitive ath
letics. These men know that as
high as 30 to 50 per cent of college
men called for service have had to
be rejected because of physical
defects. They also know that very
few varsity athletes have been re
jected. We were told that athletes
not only were found physically fit
but they invariably had that fight
ing spirit, team morale end will-to-win
attitude, and that often they
were natural leaders. The senti
ment was as follows:
Competitive athletics represent
that aspect of physical education
that has been, and will continue
to be, successful In developing
young men physically, and in in
stilling a competitive attitude that

that it develops skill and agility to
a high degree, and that team work
U more prominent probably than
In any other game. Also, like m
baseball, no game ends in a tie.
Some one always wins and that
will to win is tres?.ed in every
game played. With a minimum of

To Continue Athletic rmcram
Oregon will have an athletic pro
jrram next year and so will every
other school on a larger scale than
ever, but with some changes. Long
tntrrsectional trips will be cur
tailed because railroad facilities
r needed for troop movements.
There will be more participants.
In basketball, for example, Instead
or a squad of 15 or 20, we expect
to have several hundred boys play
ing, and it will be as tough and as
)i:ghy competitive as pmsible.
Games will be more colorful and
liardrr foukht than ever before
and that answers the attendance
question that lias been raited by
me. Attendance should be great
er than cer except in sparsely
populated areas when travel is a
problem. i

The rival field-generals have been
making strategic offensive and de

leaders.
Brauner and Libby, managers of
the Giustina Reds and the Spring-

Starting time will be at 2:30, and
a laige crowd is expected to wit

clubs. It will be played on the
Springfield diamond.
This means that either Bob Cav
iness or Kenny Brauner will be
on the mound for the Reds.
Jim White will be behind the
plate. Giustina's infield will prob
ably have either Caviness or Brpu
ner on first. Ace Plath on second,
Len Neal on short, and Pitnsy at
third. Charley DeAutremont, Juel
Faubion, and K. King make uo '.he
outfield.
Libby will call upon Bob Wilt

Smith Decisions
Yanks Again, 1-0
Bums Bounce Cards
10-4 To Stretch Lead
(United Press)
Al Smith, left-handed New York
nemesis, and Buster Mills, former
Yankee outfielder, combined to
hand the world champions their
fourth straight defeat Saturday as
the Cleveland Indians chalked up
a 1-0 triumph.
Smith, who halted Ernie Bon
ham's winning streak at eight
straight two weeks ago, pitched a
one-hitter against Bonham and the
Yankees for his fifth victory. Joe
Dimaggio's line double to left field
m the second inning was the only
hit off Smith, who handed the
Yankees their second shutout of the
season. Dimaggio went to third on
a sacrifice and was the only New
Yorker to get that far.
Bonham allowed only five hits
as he was charged with his second
defeat of the year, but the Indians
bunched successive singles by Ken
Keltner, Les Fleming and Mills for
the winning tally in the seventh.
Smith pitched to only 29 bat
ters and did not issue a base on
balls. He struck out four. Buddy
Hassett, who reached first on an
error in the seventh, was the only
other Yankee to reach base.
Detroit hung onto fourth place,
just .002 percentage points behind
the Indians, by shading the Wash
ington Senators 7-6. Dizzy Trout,
who went in in the ninth, was
credited with his fifth win.
St. Louis made six hits off
Rookie Roger Wolff of the Phila
delphia Athletics good for a 5-3
triumph. Dennis Galehouse went
the route for the Browns for his
fifth win. Chet Laabs homered for
the Browns in the eighth with
1 none on.
In the National league, the fast
stepping Brooklyn Dodgers
clubbed the St. Louis Cardinals for
the third straight day, 10-4, to
i move 714 games in front of the
I circuit. It marks the biggest first
place lead Brooklyn has held all
season.
The Dodgers hammered first Lon
Warneke and three other pitch
ers for 15 hits, Joe Medwick pacing
the assault with three singles and
a double to stretch his streak of
hitting safely to 23 straight
