Today's Sport Parade
By Jack Cuddy j
(United PreiM Staff CorrcMpontlent)
New York, Jan. 17 It
was a somewhat blurred "green
light" that President Roosevelt
gave baseball on the eve of to
day's promised message to con
gress on national service legisla
tiona message almost certain to
urge immediate passage of the
pending work-or-fight bill.
The president said he was all
for baseball; but he had to tem
per this statement with modifica
tions that seem ambiguous ca
pable of many interpretations. He
favored continuance of baseball
If its possible to do so without
hurting the employment of peo
ple in the war effort or the build
ing of the army. He added em
phatically that ho did not think
perfectly healthy young men
should be playing ball at this
time.
Baseball people, who have been
clamoring for a show-down on the
government's attitude toward con
tinuance of the diamond sport,
following the ban on racing, gen
erally interpreted the president's
remarks at yesterday s press con
ference as an Indirect go-ahead
for the game. There was general
relief and a hit of jubilation a
feeling that baseball has passed
the war-dump and that it may bo
able to continue for the duration.
President Roosevelt u n q u c s
tionahly favors, continuance of
the game, if such continuance will
not conflict with his work-or fight
program. Basehall cleanest of and -ni. Including 4-h s and dls
all professional spoils has the! charged veterans, will be per
backing of church, educational, i mitted to continue? Will baseball
corrective and civic organizations j be classified as an essential Indus
because of its wartime Impor-j try or what?
Late Opening of Upper River
Meefs With Resentment Here
Seething over what they termed
"special privilege" rulings of the
stale game commission; Bend
fishermen today were complain
ing loudly that they had "been
sold down the river" by the lie
elnred May 12 opening of the l!t45
fishing season In Central Oregon.
The commission set April 2.S as
opening day of the season on the
Deschutes river north of Bend,
and May 12 tor opening day In
the upper river anil lakes, while
coast fishermen will take to their
streams on April I I.
Popular belief In Bend is that
the staggered opening dates have
licon "engineered" by Portland
fishermen to give themselves the
advantage of three openings,
since obviously no one can enjoy
the cream of opening week fishing
in more than one place tit a lime.
Suggestion that the saving of
spawning fish may have been a
reason given for a later opening
date In Central Oregon brought
a contemptuous snort Irom l.loyd
Douthit, veteran fisherman of
the Deschutes country who de
clared: "I have caught spawning
fish in the lower Deschutes two
months later In the season than
any I've ever seen in the Melolius
or the Deschutes above Bend."
While some fishermen were
helplessly bemoaning the lale
opening here, others were, busy
w riting let let s and sending tele
grams of protest to the game
commission. One group was
organizing to make a direct ap

tance as an indirect preventative
of juvenile delinquency. It also
has the support of many leaders
because of its contributions to ci
vilian and service morale.
However, the work-or-fight bill
sponsored by Chairman Andrew
J. May, D., Ky., of the house mili
tary affairs committee, would
force every man between 18 and
45 including 4-F's to get in a
war job or stay on the one he
now occupies, through occupa
tional deferment, under penalty
of induction into special labor
battalions. It seems now that
congress may pass this bill in a
hurry, preferring it to possibili
ties of national service, which
would reauh men in still higner
brackets, and apply also to wo
men. Gen. George C. Marshall,
Air nest J. King, commander-in-
chief of the navy, have appealed
for national service.
Confronted with possibilities of
quick passage of the May bill, we
wonder how to Interpret noose
velt's so-called "green light" re
marks. Of approximately 500 men
available for major league play,
only five on current rosters of the
16 clubs are under IS. None are
over 45.
Roosevelt said he would like to
see baseball continue "If It's pos
sible to do so without hurting the
employment of people in the war
effort." Is there an inference there
that major leaguers between 18
peal to the commission to recon
sider the opening dates in its
final meeting late Ibis month.

keep up in their school work, in
this first mid-week jaunt taken
by a Bend team in many a season.
The south-central Oregon "double
features" were arranged to reduce
travel to a minimum.
Prowess Unknown
Coach Cook and his proteges
head for the home courts of the
Lakeview1 and Burns teams with
out any knowledge of the prowess
of the two squads, but he is hop
ing the Bears can handle the
games as "brothers", following a
series of -hard battles on their
homo courts. These battle?) in
clude the hectic series against
Hood River this past week-end,
when Bend dropped the first
game by two points, then won the
second by a pair of points.
Cook reported the Bears in
good condition. Making the trip
south this morning were the fol
lowing plavers:
Harold Smith, Doug Wirtz, Bob

George Murphy, Phil Brogan,

Chiefs of Baseball
Look Oyer Talent
New York, Jan. 17 OP) Base
ball men, heartened by what they
interpreted as a green light from
President Roosevelt, took stock
of their rosters today and a
United Press survey disclosed
that the 16 major league clubs
have 291 available players.
Of that number. 223 have been
classified 4-F, 31 are discharged
veterans, 32 are overage and five
are underage all of whom would
be eligible lor play under the in
terpretation ot the president's
message to his press conference
yesterday.
Another group of 239 players
falls in the 18 to 38 age bracket
and a number of those probably
will be classified 4-F when called
for physical examinations. The
majors also can tap the higher
minor leagues for a number of
men with which to carry on.
Uncle Sam First
Commenting on the president's
message, one New York baseball
man said the game had been op
erating all along without the use
of penectly healthy young men.
".we don't want men that Uncle
Sam needs elsewhere," he said.
Other comment Jrom major
league officials follows:
Lddie Brannlck, secretary of
I the New York Giants "To me
It s good news and 1 m tickled to
deatn. Mr. Roosevelt said we
should continue if possible with
out hurting the war effort. That's
the way baseball wants It too, and
I'm confident the game can carry
on under those conditions.
Will Aid Government
Roger Peckinpaugh, vice-presi
dent and general manager of the
Cleveland Indians "The clubs
will go along with any govern
ment regulation that helps the
war effort. Much depends on the
definition 'perfectly healthy men.'
Baseball has been operating with
4-F', those with dependency defer
ments and players too old for
service."
Herb Pennock, general man
ager of the Philadelphia Phillies
"It flashed the green light for
the game. All of baseball's per
fectly healthy young men are in
the service or available for induc
tion under the selective service
system."
