Sports Program
In Bay Area Set
For War Veterans
By Hal Wood
(Unltal I'ress SnorU Writer)
San Francisco, Jan. 27 Ul'i A
guy who didn't forget tomorrow
night starts one ol the most lav
ish entertainment programs in
history for disabled veterans in
bay area hospitals.
The program reads: Mario Tri
go vs. Benny Calla, 10 rounds at
National hall, under auspices of
the National Boxing club, Lou
Thomas, promoter.
But that's not the half of it.
Actually, it is a William P.
inanager of Bay Meadows race
track, is the fellow who has turn-
eri over S3.500.000 to charities
since mid-way in the war, from
his self-styled "peanut track."
This ranks well up with the ma
jor racing ovals such as Santa
Anita, Belmont and the rest.
Half Million Given
Of this amount, Kyne nas turn
ed over one-half million dollars
to the veterans rehabilitation
foundation a project that has
taken care of a major share ot
the entertainment for the boys
who fought the last war, and still
are paying for it in hospitals.
Kyne has been piping In major
league baseball games from the
east and having them recreated
for the lads in the hospitals; he
has provided thousands of tickets
for lights, football games, basket
ball tilts, shows, etc.
Now, he has another idea to
put the entertainment for the
boys on a self-paying basis.
Kail Taken Over
So saying, he has taken over
famed Old National hall, until re
cently known as "the Bucket of
Blood" in the tough Mission dis
trict. He has spent $15,000 com
pletely remodeling the building,
installing carpets, powder rooms,
etc. the likes of which never be
fore have appeared in that dis
trict. The place seats 2,000 fans and
about 75 to 80 per cent of the tick
ets for the bouts there will be
for sale. The rest will go to dis
abled veterans choice seats. The
lirst pight, 250 warriors will come
lrom Letterman, Oak Knoll and
Fnio Alto hospitals.
"All we hope to do is to pro
vide top-notch entertainment for
the veterans," says Kyne. "If we
are able to break even all well
and good. If not, the costs will
come out of foundation funds."

Bob Feller Turns
Down '49 Contract
Cleveland, Jan. 27 (U"i Bobby
Feller, foreseeing poorer weather,
decreased attendance and a less
exciting American league race
this year, listed those reasons to
day for turning down the 1949 con
tract offered him by the cham
pion Cleveland Indians.
The 30-year-old pitcher became
a holdout for the first time In his
10-year career when he annuonc
ed yesterday, "I am not satisfied
with present terms" following a
financial conference with ciub
president Bill Veeck.
Veeck's headaches mounted as
Bob Lemon, Gene Bearden and
Ken Keltner lined up with Feller
in the "holdout brigade."
Feller, who earned $82,000 for
1948 through the expedient of a
bonus based on the number of
fans who watched the Indians
play at home, was offered a con
tract yesterday which called for
a cut in his base pay plus a small
er bonus for attendance.

Sporf Parade
By Oscar Fraley
(Unitiil -lreaH Sport Writer)
New York, Jan. 27 tU'i Foot
ball's arnica and old bandage bri
gade, the guys who do the work
up front, have been groaning for
years that "linemen do the work
and backs get the glory" so it
seems about time that something
is done to portion out the gravy.
A lot of good white space has
been wasted lately with a pro
fessional footbrawl serial, a tear
jerker entitled "Who Can Afford
to Lose the Most Money." So
there must be some room to con
sider the plight of the burly poor
men who labor from tackle to
tackle.
Isn't it about time that football
statistics added a line? Some
thing which read:
"Tackles made by:"
Currently those unmerging mil
lionaires in pro ball are talking
about losing hundreds of thou
sands here and a few more bucks
there. Certainly they could af
ford one man to see that the lads
who do the work get a portion of
the praise. And in college foot
ball, plenty of students would be
glad to get a free ticket to note
who bashes the ball carrier.
Only Defensive Seen
Football's only defensive tribute
concerns the interception of for
ward passes. The remainder are
aimed at glorification of halfbacks
with even a penalty line which
notes the whistle tooting attri
butes of the officials.
Yet half of the lads playing foot
ball sweat it out from unknown
tackle to equally inconspicuous
tackle. And all they do is to
catch you-know-what when those
"great" backs make a couple of
yards through their position.
Basketball Shows
Rapid fire basketball shows
how easy it would be to keep a
football tackling payoff list. In
the court game it isn't too terrific
for a man to dunk 30 points per
evening. And no self-respecting
team settles for less than 60
points in a contest.
Yet basketball statisticians can
come up with field goal attempts
and even such gems as "field goal
averages."
Baseball has what is probably
the most intricate statistical sys
tem in sports. You can find out
how many times Hathaway
Schultz of Terre Haute in the
three-eye league was thrown out
stealing; the number of pitchers
usea in a game or even in tsrooK
lyn a player's "earned base aver
age computed on unintentional
walks and total bases on hits di
vided by times at bat over a sea
son. Service Aces Noted
Tennis comes up with service
aces, balls netted, driven out, plac
ed and so forth, just as though
thousands of fans were waiting
breathlessly, and maybe they are.
But in football if you're a
tackle, a guard, a center or a line
backer the guy who lays those
free wheeling ball carrier doesn't
even get a smile from the coach.
And if you just happen to be one
of those old time defensive ends
who doesn't worry too much about
catching forward passes, you can
Join the club of unknowns.
Certainly, it would make at
least half the football players in
the country happy if statistics
were kept on who makes the
tackles.
US Forces Said
Ready for Attack
Philadelphia, Jan. 27 lU'i The
Rev. Bernard Hubbard, S. J., "the

Father Hubbard told a St. Jo

In addition to air force prepara
