Major Leagues
OpenWear ;
Under War Rules
However, Apprehension
Of Early Season Has
Practically Disappeared
By Paul Soheffeta
(Unlud Prwk Sulf CorrcspoiiJrnt)
New York, April 21 U- The
major leagues, hopeful but not
too sure of what lies ahead, open
their second season under ever
tightening wartime restrictions
' today, minus many of the stars
who helped to attract record
gates In 1943.
Forced to train in the north by
limited transportation facilities
and with its manpower sources
dwindling rapidly, the 16 clubs go
to the barrier confident they will
be able to. complete the 154-game
schedule which leads to the world
series in October.
Officials took heart from re
cent statements by war man
power commissioner Paul V. Mo
Nutt and selective service offi
cials and were determined to
carry out the promise baseball
commissioner Judge Kenesaw M.
Landis made last winter to 60,
000,000 American fans that the
game will continue so long as
each club has nine men to put on
the field.
Worries Vanish
The feeling of apprehension
with which the teams started
spring training- had vanished with
McNutt's statement that he saw
no reason why baseball should
not continue for the duration, al
though he added the game event
ually would have to get along
without all able-bodied men be
tween 18 and 38. But selective ser
vice officials said pre-Pearl Har
bor fathers might get in a full
season before being called by the
armed forces.
Despite loss of such stars as
Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams,
Terry Moore, Teddy Lyons, Red
Ruffing. Pete Reiser, Phil Riz
zuto, Johnny Beazley, Pee Wee
Reese, Snos Slaughter, Dom Di
Maggio, Johnny Pesky, and many
others, club owners forecast a
banner year so far as gate re
ceipts are concerned.
Big Crowds Expected
Capacity crowds were forecast
for nearly all of the opening con
tests. The National league will
see New York at Brooklyn, Phila
delphia at Boston, Pittsburgh at
Chicago and St Louis at Cincin
nati. In the American league, which
got its regular early sendoff at
Washington yesterday, where the
Senators whipped the Philadel
phia Athletics, 7-5, the Nats move
into Yankee Stadium as the New
Yorkers, winners of the 1942 flag,
open defense of their title; Chi
cago's White Sox play at St
Louis, Detroit goes to Cleveland
and Boston Invades Philadelphia.
Daily draft calls make the pos
sible finish of the teams more un
predictable than ever but the
Dodgers and Yankees have been
picked as general favorites to em
erge champions of their respec
tive leagues.

Lava Bear Team
Not Yet Picked
A small group of Bend high
school trackmen will leave for
Klamath Falls Friday afternoon
to take part in the Southern Oregon-Northern
California meet,
first interscholastic competition
of the year for the Lava Bears.
The meet is not to be run off
until Saturday, but bus schedules
makes it necessary for the team
to leave Friday.
While the traveling squad has
not definitely been picked it will
probably be made up from tliis
group: Corbin Weber, Evart Clark
and Don Halligan, sprints: Dennis
Sullivan, Bob Joanis. Jay Glatt
and Larry Valley, middle distanc
es and distances; Bob Fagg and
Dick Thurmer, hurdles; George
Rasmussen and Doug Wirtz, pole
vault; Jim Chambers, javelin, and
Phil Jones, broad jump.
Few Points Seen
Because of the large number of
inexperienced boys and the fact
that there has been no competi
tion so far, Coach Claude Cook
does not expect the Bears to score
heavily at the meet.
Favorites to win the meet will
be the Klamath Pelicans, with two
major meets already behind them.
Last week the Klamath team, led
by big Jim Bocchi, who took 18
points in four events, walked off
with the Medford invitational
meet by a wide margin.
Hopes for a creditable showing
in the meet will rest on Rasmus
sen, slender freshman pole vault
er; Thurmer in the low hurdles,
and Sullivan, in the distances, pre
dicts Cook. How these boys will
stack up under tough competition
is the big question, says Cook.
Coasting Along in Sport World
By I.Lsle Shoemaker
(United I'm, staff Cormponttent)
Los Angeles, April 21 tlF It's
true we've never been awarded
any medals for meritorious per
formance as a baseball critic but
there's no rule right handy to
keep us from taking our turn at
bat.
It's pretty early, of course, to
jump right out swinging and pro
claim that coast league baseball
season is now entering what will
be its most successful season in
history. It probably won't be.
But it doesn't seem too early to
ask those fellows who suffer
from baseball blues and predicted
the PCL season would fold up by
July just what they think now
after only two days of the sched
ule on the boards.
Bowling Notes
I
Hard luck trailed the Superior
cafe and Bulletin teams in indus
trial A league bowling last night.
Although both teams scored
greater total numbers of points I
than their opponents, each lost
two out of three games.

Turnouts on the four opening
Sunday fronts were practically on
the spectacular side.
It seems perfectly clear the peo
ple, the fans who holler at the
umpires, the ones who lineup for
blocks at the hot dog stands want
their baseball.
Personal experience In Sun
day's opener at Wrigley field be
tween Oakland and the Angels
gave us an insight into spectator
wants. And undoubtedly the same
situation held true at the other
three parks.
The lines at the ticket booths
was so long at Wrigley field the
management stalled the opening
ceremonies a few minutes to let
the paying customers in so they'd
get their money's worth.
And when they did finally get
inside, it looked as if half of 'em
then lined up all over again this
time at the concession stands. The
final count was around 13,000,
biggest crowd in 10 years at an
opening Wrigley field game.
At San Diego, 6000 people took
in the tilt with Seattle, a crowd
bigger by at least a thousand than
last year. San Francisco's game
with Hollywood lured in 15,422,
near capacity. Only Portland at
Sacramento showed a drop. Six
Final games were played last
night in the hoys' church league,
with the Catholic A team still
perched on top the league stand
ings. The big Catholic team finished
the season with n perfect record
of 11 victories and no defeats by
crushing the younger Catholic U
team. 42 to 12.
