Paris, June 26 (U.R) There was mounting evidence today that the annual American major league all-star game may be brought to the European theater by air transportation to be played before more than 100,000 service men. Col. Kenneth E. Field of Bos ton, director of the European theater athletic program, said in revealing a huge slate of sports for war-weary G.I.'s that Frank McCormick of Minneapolis, the former director, had gone to the United States in an attempt to get the all-star baseball game transferred to Europe. Because of the increased rail transportation burden in the States, the all-star game, sched uled for Boston on July 9, was cancelled. However, because of thi .3 open dates on the sched ules at that time, it waj pointed out that the players could be flown overseas to the game, and returned shortly afterward to their teams without missing any games. The game would be played in Germany's Nuernberg Nazi party stadium, which has a seating ca pacity of more than 100,000.

This week the Beavers travel to Sacramento to open a seven game series tonight. They may be riding for a fall. The fourth pla.-e Solons just finished knock ing off Seattle, runner-up club in the league standings, twice Sunday, and are out for blood. There is plenty of room for major changes in the standings of. the third, fourth, fifth and sixth place clubs. Only three games separates sixth place San Diego from the third place Seals. In between are Oakland and Sac ramento, tied for fourth at a game behind San Francisco, closely pressed by Los Angeles, a game-and-a-half behind the Seals. The cellar-dwelling Hollywood Stars, under new management, paradoxically may turn out to be rough hosts to Oakland, and it may not be all beer and skittles for the Rainiers at San Diego. The Los Angeles Angels make their first appearance of the sea son at San Francisco in what promises to be one of the liveliest series of the week. Boston, June 26 (U.R) Tami Mauriello of New York wonder ed today whether he had deliv ered the blow.to end the career of California Heavyweight Lou Nova, whom he knocked out in one round last night.

When Nova arose an old wound above his. eyebrow was bleeding profusely. Nova, hanging on gamely, pawed at Mauriello but failed to deliver a solid blow. Tubby Tami continued to be the aggres sor, wading in with both fists. Finally he hit Nova with a pair of slapping lefts and followed with the knockout punch, a looping right hand that caught Nova on the jaw. Mauriello weighed 197 pounds, Nova 203.

Rome, (U.R) The Italian wom en still manage to look beautiful after years of war and hardship, but that's about the only pleasant thing in the outlook for Italy to day. In a country that has been wracked by war, military occu pation, hunger and shortages, it is amazing that the women of Italy still are lovely to look at. But they are. They're tanned and appear healthy. They wear charming clothes that usually are Improvised from leftover curtains and odd goods, Sandals in Stylo Most of them wear sloppy san dals for walking the kind American girls would slip on in the shower or at the beach. Generally, the Italian girls are pretty slick chicks, and dressed up a bit they'd draw glances on New "ork's Fifth avenue. But aside from that, Italy Is still in pretty bad shape. Supposing you're the head of a family of four living In Rome. You wake up in the morning, probably well-bitten by bedbugs, dress In an ordinary suit that cost you $300, shoes that cost $50, and a necktie that set you back $8. Your wife puts on a dress made by sewing two large silk bandannas together. Eggs Costly If you want eggs for breakfast, they'll cost you 24 cents each on the black market. They're not to be had on the official market. If you're eating breakfast you probably have a job, so you go to work feeling fortunate, be cause many are unemployed here. Your wife sets out for the black markets, which flourish openly in the streets. There she finds bread for $1.43 a kilogram (about 2 ',4 pounds); beef for $8.50; cheese, $7.50; fats, $4.30; sugar, $12; tomato ketchup, $3.60, and salt, 70 cents. At that rate, on the basis of 2,000 calories a day per person, Tuesday, June 26. 194S MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE THREE your food bills would run to al most $500 a month. But you don't make that much, so you eat less. Official Prices Less Prices on the official market are much lower. Sugar, for ex ample, is only 20 cents a kilo gram there. But even necessities are often scarce there. The worst worry of all is how your family is going to weather the coming winter. Allied mili tary government officials see tough months ahead in the coal and food supply outlook. Although sunny Italy has a climate much like that of Miami Beach, it got bitterly cold last winter. Blue marks of chilblains still blemish the tanned legs of many Italian women.
