Glenn Davis to Become Pro
Baseball, Football Player
By Tim Morlarty
(United Praia SporU Writer)
New York, Keb. 24 iU'i Atten
tion, major league club owners:
Please form a iirte on the right
and hold your checkbooks in your
hand. Glenn Davis Is coming out
ol the army.
The resignation of First Lieu
tenant Davis, better known to
fans as "Mr. Outside," of Army
football fame and less known as
a talented 'outfielder, was accept
ed yesterday by the army depart
ment in Washington.
Galloping Glenn will begin tcr-
m na leave on Marcn i. ny coin'
cidence the exact date that major
league baseball teams begin their
spring training in the southland.
His resignation becomes fully ef
fective June 8.
Open for Bids
Davis lost little time In letting
it be known he was open for base
ball bids, once the announcement
of the resignation acceptance
came through. In St. Louis, Presi
dent William O. DeWitt of the
Browns reported that Davis
phoned to inquire if the Browns
were interested in bidding for his
services.
Davis informed DeWitt that he
already was dickering with sev
eral other major-league teams.
DeWitt told him to consider the
other offers and then let the
Browns know what he would con
sider a fair proposal.
Right now Davis is stationed
with the army field forces at Fort
Monroe, Va., not far from Nor
folk. His resignation is being ac
cepted under a new army policy
. which requires West Point gradu
ates to serve only three years as
commissioned officers instead of
four, as previously.
Deadline Factor
If the club owners show any re
luctance to offer Davis a fat con
tract, one reason could be his avid
desire to play professional foot
'ball. And that will mean quitting
baseball on August 1 to go Into
training.
The Los Angeles Rams of the
National -American football
league hold the draft rights to
Davis, . and Rams' owner Dan
Reeves indicated that the club
would insist on that August dead
line if Davis wants to play foot
ball. While the baseball owners
whetted their fountain pens for
Davis, some of them were busy
signing their other players.
The Chicago White Sox got
holdout catcher Eddie Malone to
sign his 1950 pact and reported
they were making progress in ne
gotiations with second-baseman
Cass Michaels, their most bitter
holdout.
Pitcher Paul Calvert, who won
six games and lost 17 last year
for Washington with some
trouble from a finger blister, ink
ed his contract with the Detroit
Tleers.
The Brooklyn Dodgers got the
autograph of pitcher Clarence
Podbielan.
Rookie pitcher Procopio Herre-
ra, a righthander, signed with the
St, Louis lirowns.
Cross-Country
Ski Race Starts
Portland, Feb. 24 UB Interna
tional skiers set out on the first
grueling event of the national
four-way ski championships to
day the 11-mile cross country
race.
Two Europeans, Fritz Tschan
nen, Switzerland, and Karl Mar
titsch, Austria, along with a con
tingent of Norwegian exchange
students added an international
flair to the field of picked United
States skiers.
Gene Brady of the University
of Washington team was the lead
off man, followed by Ross Wil
liams of Washington. Drawings
yesterday listed Lars Forland,
Washington State favorite, as
last.
The combined championship
will be won by the skier scoring
the most points in four events
cross country, slalom, downhill
race and jump,
The cross country and Jump

the champion because of the add
ed endurance and skill required.

races wil be held with slalom
competition in the afternoon.
Jumps from Multorpor moun
tain .will be held Sunday,

Disputed Race
To Be Run Again
Chicago, Feb. 24 lPWiscon
sin's Don Gehrmann and the
FBI's Fred Wilt, participants in
the most disputed race In indoor
track history, will run a repeat
match In the Chicago Daily News
relays March 18, It was announc
ed today.
Wilt, who won the Ned Mer
riam two mile run in the relays
last year, today posted his entry
in the Bankers mile event. Gehr
mann already had agreed to com
pete. The match should settle the
"now you've won it, now you
haven't" grind the two put on in
the Wanamaker mile of the Mil
rose games.
It took 10 minutes for the Judg
es to announce that Gehrman
was the winner, although both
runners were timed at 4:09.3, the
fastest turned in for the distance
this year.
Later, however, the decision
was reversed and Wilt, who ran
in College of Indiana, was given
first place. Another appeal has
been Illea on behalf ol iienrmann,
but the decision probably will not
be made until late in March, per
haps after the Bankers' mile run.
