Robert Newland and Ma, Wallace Wade were named coaches of the all-army football team they were handed well-indexed list of 1,800 soldier-grldders, all formerly In the star category, from which to draw their squad. The navy, marine and coast Guard branches possibly have attracted an equal number, mak ing 3,600 footballers headliners now wearing uniforms of a dif ferent sort. Although then is no way of determining it exactly, it is likely that 100 of those 3,600 would be in school and getting their bumps and bruises for dear ol' Siwash this fall Instead of for Uncle Sam If the world were at peace. An Ass : la ted Press survey shows that virtually every col lege contributed to the armed services at least one Ridden who still was eligible to play and that at least two top flight schools Fordham and Virginia handed over their captains- elect. The Rams will have to do without Jim Lansing, an end, this fall and Virginia will go along without Bill Suhling, a rousing center. Double graduations, on in the spring and the other in June, left the U. S. Military Academy and the U. S. Naval Academy with little semblance of the elevens they fielded In 1041. Gridders who were sophomores there last season will be seniors this fall. Although Uncle Sam tapped at least one footballer at almost all colleges, he drew more from some than from others. Penn State lost six while Pennsyl vania has back all of those on whom It was counting. Jim Hunnert, who was to have been to Santa Clara this fall what Norman Standlee was to Stanford two seasons ago, en listed . . . Washington will miss 10 players, six of whom defi nitely would have made Ralph (Pest) Welch's first year happier Among the sextet was Bob Barrett, sophomore halfback ter ror of 1041 ... Georgetown turned over 14 athletes but George Washington, the same city, came through virtually unscathed . . . Mississip pi, where there were hopes of on of the beat elevens in the school i history, gave up 25 . . Mississippi State, where the tal ent was meager, lost only a few . . . Harvard, with a strong ROTC unit, got off lightly but Dart mouth saw 20 marching away and Wesleyan of Mtddletown, Conn., lost its entire first string line . . . New York, Aug. 18. W) Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox still is a long way from the .406 average that won him the American league batting cham pionship last year but he may make it yet if he continues at the pace he held during the past week. Williams batted exactly .500 for the week in 20 trips to the Plate, raising his average from .344 to .332. That mark, which he reached once before this season, gave him a lead of 10 percentage points over his closest rival, Joe Gordon of the New York Yan kees, before today's games and a margin of 16 points over the Na tional league leader, Brooklyn's t-eie neiser. Reiser, who also Js attempting to defend the championship in his circuit, dropped four points to .336 but still leads his learnt oy ll points.

Short score: Fort Lewis 3 10 2 Portland 8 12 1 Smith, Greenlaw (8) and Beard; Loane, Fitike (6) and Bergstrom By Austin Bsalmear (Associated Press Spurts Writer) If the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers don't meet In the world series this fall, they'll waste a grudge that would be worth more at the box office than all the .3 00 hitters on both clubs. Born in the post-season classic last October but lost amid the pennant squabbles of the cur rent campaign, the ill-feeling has come out of retirement and shows signs of snowballing into quite a fuss. Meanwhile, the St. Louis Cacsiinals aren't conceding the Dodgers the National league pennant. With Brooklyn idle yesterday, the Cards sliced the Dodger lead to seven and a half games by whipping the Cincin nati Reds, 5-2, to sweep a four game series. Giants Win In the only other "atlonal league game, the Nev York Giants tightened their grip on third place, four games ahead of Cincinnati, by edgin ' out the Boston Braves, 3-2. The Yankees played their last game of the season In Phila delphia, swamping the Athletics, 15-0, as Red Ruffing hurled his fourth shutout of the year and the 42nd of his career. The St. Louis Browns came from behind twice to beat the Cleveland Indians, 5-2, in a night game, me only other contest on the schedule. r t . ? - -jv v, . kj T " jfJl Jilt 7 iv x'M. a?im ca awV 12 A it) wJ:m4 pc J Xi 1 r - n vft?H I?

H. Oliver West, executive vice-president and guiding gen ius of production at the Boeing Aircrapt company, said today that although some women were doing fine work, a great many "are here for other than serious purposes." . . They pursue social life in the factory workrooms, it appears; they will not wear proper cloth ing, as suggested by the person nel office; and they do not Con fine their permanent waves in nets, nor even snoods, although they've been told time and again that long flowing bobs are apt to get caught, painfully, in machinery. They are in fact, said West, "youngsters in search of a good time." Nevertheless, West concedes that it is absolutely essential to utilize woman-power to keep production of the famous Boeing flying fortresses up to par. As of this month, 26 per cent of all employes at Boeing are women, and the percentage probably will increase, he said. TO NEW PULPIT Salem, Aug. 18. (Jf) The Rev. Robert A.
