Y., Sept. 17. (U.R) The war has changed our philosophy of living in many respects, and for those who have been privileged to visit some of our great military en campments, it has changed our conception of "big-time" sports.

I the world's great air bases sports are being carried on with a magnitude and an Intensity that we never have noted in major league training camp, col lege campus or city park. And the man responsible for this all-out sports program at Mitchel field symbolizes the pace and the magnitude of its sports program. We refer to Major Lou J. TschudL one of the most popular officers on the post. You can't quite appreciate MaJ. Tschudl's elation unless you have been at this great base and seen the thousands ana thousands of men who are traln- ina here. And he's the one man responsible for their physical fitness and their "toughness" when they leave for points un We asked MaJ. Tschudl. "What goes on here? Can you tell us how you harden these legions of men? Is there any particular sport that you pccentuate?" MaJ. Tschudl, director of ath letics and entertainment, replied. I don't know what you have read In the papers about how service men in other branches are prepared for combat. But 1 11 tell you this. We concen trate on obstacle races. When our men leave here, they are able to run f-o-r-w-a-r-d with speed and stamina, and able to Jump over or climb over almost anything that may be placed In their path. "This obstacle racing Is com pulsory for every man who comes Into camp whether he be a pilot or merely a field- maintenance man. There are other compulsory exercises, but this Is the most Important. "This obstacle racing is the nucleus of what I believe is the perfect training program made up of the features of a dozen college athletic systems sorted out and transferred to this base."

IP I DODGERS BATTLE BUCS BY 10 TO 3 Camilli Belts Two Homers, Two Singles Cards Win To Keep Two-Game Lead Pvt Samuel (Sammy) Sim mons, veteran fight manager, is undertaking the task of reviv ing boxing in Albuquerque, both as a fan drawing attraction and as an essential part of the army's "toughening - up" pro gram. By Oscar Fraley United Press Correspondent. New York, Sept. 17 (U.R) "fhe Brooklyn Dodgers were their old battling, brawling selves today as they went against the dazed Pittsburgh Pirates praying that the pace- setting St. Louis Cardinals would make just one slip. "Just let them make one lit tle bobble and they'll find out who's going to win that pen nant. Manager Leo Durocher chortled yesterday when his Brooks snapped their five-game losing streak with one of the most murderous attacks ever seen at Ebbets Field. It was a different Brooklyn ball club than the listless team that dropped five straight to give the Cards the National league lead. After a two-day layoff the team came up swing Ing from the floor and blasted six Pirate pitchers for 19 hits and a 10-3 victory. But St. Louis held the pace and the two-game lead by top ping the Boston Braves, 6-2, for its 33rd victory In its last 39 starts. - Big Dolph Camilli, the thump ing first baseman named the league's most valuable player last year, led the Brooks out of their hitting slump with four for five, Including his 23rd and 24th homers of the year, and knocked in five runs. Dixie Walker had four for four and Pete Reiser riade three safeties. Whit Wyatt was only as good as he had to be, yielding 10 hits for his 18th victory of the year. Brawl In Boxes A pre-game box seat brawl, which could have happened only in Brooklyn, touched off the fireworks. Three spectators bat tled with and routed ushers and then, unwisely, heckled Mickey Owen and Walker. The two players went into the stands and won a handy decision before police carried off the trio. Chicago split with the Phils to replace the Pirates In fifth place. The Cubs dropped the first, 3-1, but took the second, 4-1. Paul Derringer topped Bill Lohrman in a tight duel as the Reds stopped the Giants, 3-1. The Yankees, with the Amer ican league flag nailed up at the stadium, rolled along with a 5-1 win over Detroit as Marv Breuer gave the Tigers only two hits. Jim Bagby allowed only five hits as the Cleveland Indians ended a six-game losing streak by beating Washington, 5-1.
