their determination to play a

loaves the mogulB with their blg

That was emphasized when
Joo DIMagglo hinted broadly

tlmaJon from Dixie Wnlkor that
hq probably would remnln as

Instead of patrolling right field

DIMogglo's hint did not in
clude mention of what he Intend
ed to do, whether to Join the

In a war Industry.

"Anyhow," ho added, tho Yan

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 6 VP)
Henry Armstrong, tho little

disposed of California Jimmy
McDaniels and Immediately
started preparations for his next
bout, which will be with a
surgeon at catchwelghts.
Armstrong declsloncd McDan
lets in a savage 10-rounder at
Olympic auditorium last night.
He had intended to depart al
most at once for a Philadelphia
scrap with Al Tribuani and a
New York data with Beau Jack,
but decided to leave his ailing
tonsils behind him before brav
ing the frigid clime of the east
ern seaboard.
McDaniels, who weighed in at
147 to Armstrong's 1401, was an
underdog In the betting, but gave
no intimation he realized it as
he stood toe to toe and slugged
it out with Henry for 10 blister
ing rounds.
Try as he would, Armstrong
couldn't put tho Irishman on the
floor and at the finish, left eye
closed and face battered, Mc
Daniels still pressed in, flailing
away with sweat-soddened gloves
on the ends of arms that had lost
their potency some rounds back.
The decision of the referee and
two judges was unanimous, and
ilngsidors figured Armstrong
won eight rounds to two for
Jimmy.

Baseball Will
Home to Aid
Clubs Look for Home Practice Fields
After Chicago Decision to Heed ODT
CHICAGO, Jan. 6 UP) Even baseball will stay at home this
spring to aid the war effort.
Complying with a recent request by Joseph Eastman, director
of the office of defense transportation, to reduce train travel to
a minimum, major league clubs decided yesterday to train in
their own backyards or within an area north of the Potomac and
Ohio rivers and east of the Mississippi. The two St. Louis clubs
were given the option of a Missouri site. .
This action was the result of on emergency meeting of club
owners called by Commissioner
K. M. Landls following his talk
last week with the ODT director
Tho club owners yesterday al
so deemed to:
Open the season April 21 In
stead of April 13 and to close
it October 3 instead of Septem
ber 26.
Retain their 154 game sched
ule.
Further cooperate with tho
government and railroads by "se
lecting the least congested mode
of travel during the regular sea
son." '
The question of reduced per
sonnel on road trips will be left
to the individual clubs, said
Landls.
The move to restrict condition
ing camps to a certain area sent
tall but three of the 18 clubs
scurrying for new training sites
today.
The three which already had
definite training sites In mind
within the accepted bounds are
Boston's Red Sox and Chicago's
two entries, Boston will drill
at Tufts college In Medford,
Mass., while the Cubs and White
Sox have decided on French Lick
Springs, Ind.
Opening tho season eight days
later than planned was regard
ed as a compromise between
American league owners who
were understood to be in favor
of an April 27 start, and 'the
National league which favored
the original April 13 date.

Hobson Eyes Oregon's First
Conference Basketball Tilt
EUGENE, Jan. 6 UP) With
University of Oregon's first
northern division conference
game only a week away, Coach
Howard Hobson had little idea
today who would be on his trav
eling squad, much less his start
ing five.
Not even Captain Don Kirsch
is sure of a first-string job, Hob
son said as he shuffled players
around in an effort to find a
hot combination. The Webfoots'
pre-season record has not been
impressive five wins In nine
starts,
Hobson hopes to get a better
line on six lettermen, a flock
of non-lettermen varsity aspir
ants and three freshmen now
eligible under conference rules
In three more king's-x contests
this week. Oregon plays Wil
lamette here tomorrow night
and takes on the Bearcats again

Fritzie Zivic
Expects Most
Active Year
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 8 UP)
Fritzie Zivic, that fightn'est ot
the four fightin Zivic brothers,
begins his 12th year In profes
sional boxing next Tuesday
night, cracking another Zivia
record, and he confidently ex
pects to have the most active,
and lucrative, year of them all.
The former welterweight
champ tackles Maylon Padlo,
Philadelphia, in the 184th bout
of his career.
"And why. shouldn't I have a
big year?" demands the youngest
of the Zivics. "I'm fighting bet.
ter than I ever did anytime..
"I have several other bouta
lined up and I Intend to keep
cashing in as many chips as I
can while the cashing is good."
Fritzie, who is nearly 20, has
three children and plenty of usa
for any and all ready cash.
The Padlo fight, getting him
off on year No. 72, will be an
other hallmark In the history ot
the amazing Zivics. - Fritzie'
oldest brother Pete, who now
runs a taproom here, hung up
his gloves after 11 years and 151
bouts. Brother Jack quit after
ten years and 132 fights, and
Eddie did 85 fights in nine years.
A fifth brother, Joe, never took
to boxing at all.
Tha Zivics, with 831 ring
struggles, hold the record for
any boxing family.
