War Makes
Frank Hogan
Early Riser
SOMERVILLE, Mass, Jan. 21
(IP) The war has led Frank
(Shanty) Hogan, former Giants'
catcher, to do things that even
the invincible John McGraw
couldn't make him do.
McGraw would have consid
ered that he had reached the
millennium If he could have
awakened Hogan in time to re
port for 10 a. m. practice. Now,
Hogan, a ship rigger, gets up at
5:30 a. m. and likes it.
"The swellest thing about
working in a shipyard is. that
you never get fined," said Ho
gan, reminiscing about the days
when he was known as one of
McGraw's "bad boys."
"During the five years I
caught for the Giants, McGraw
fined me a total of $4000. No
wonder some ball clubs can af
ford to pay big salaries. They
take it back in fines."
Hogan said he would like to
obtain a minor league club alter
the war.
He pointed out that he's still
in his prime he's only 36 years
old. But he still totes that 248
pounds he tried to work off
when he was with the Giants.

Hale American Open Golf
Tournament May Be Shelved
By ARNOLD DERLITZKI
CHICAGO, Jan. 21 (IP) The
Hale America open golf tourna
ment, successor last year to the
war shelved national open, in
turn may be succeeded this year
but perhaps in name only.
The Chicago District uou as
sociation said today it planned
an open tournament, national in
scope and with proceeds going
to some war relief agency, but
indicated that the event prob
ably would be identified by a
name other than Hale America.
Last year's Hale America was
held at Chicago's Ridgemoor
club. Proceeds of the event, won
by Ben Hogan, totalled $25,000
and went to the navy relief and
USO organizations.

sports victim of wartime travel
and housing conditions.
The board of control of the
Washington High School Ath
letic association last night can
celled the tourney "after care
ful consideration of all the prob
lems involved.
Housing was the chief ob
stacle to staging the tournament,
and J. D. Meyer, association sec
retary, stressed the fact that
University of Washington offi
cials were willing to undertake
the housing assignment, and
semed in favor of going ahead.
"But," Meyer added, "it would
have been necessary to house
the boys in a large building and
to provide cots. It might even
have been necessary for the con
testants to bring their own bed
ding." Tire and gas rationing, crowd
ed rail facilities, the problem of
feeding the contestants, coupled
with the housing difficulties, in
fluenced the decision of the
board, Meyer explained. '

Sport Holes
By FRED HAMPSON
Associated Prtii Staff Writer
Looking ahead a few weeks to
the slightly-delayed 'hatching of
1943 baseball spring training, a
contemporary predicts that tho
late start and shorter season
won't be the only effect ot the
war.
He predicts that that old stand
by of February and March.: Mr.
Holdout, practically will disap
pear. This will be agreeable to
many a horschldo fan who never
did relish the spring squabbles
over money, partly because he
never knew how much of it was
honest disagreement and 'how
much of it was publicity.
It's going to be hard to work
up much excitement this year
over Joe Blow's declaration that
he would rather retire to his
chicken ranch than play for the
peanut money suggested in his
contract
Players are expected to sign
with a minimum of noise and
disputes over salaries probably
will be kept as quiet as possible,
Anything else would be in poor
taste in a war year when a lot
of people think baseball ought
to be suspended completely.
Some managers fear that many
players particularly in the
minors will fail to show up
for training, but they probably
won't be holdouts in the accept
ed sense. Mostly they will be
war workers who will stay on
tho job for patriotic reasons and
without much if any finan
cial, sacrifice.
Portland's National Boxing
club has been doing a thriving
business at the box office but
as Fred Zimmerman remarks
in the Salem Capital Journal,
hasn't had any luck developing
a local .star. Anyone familiar
with the glove business knows
that nothing can bring in the
trade like a home town favorite,
Zim thinks the club has been
unlucky in being unable to un
earth an Oregon scrapper who
could piece together more than
a two or three-fight winning
streak.
Every potential has been bat
tered down in short order by
top-flight Importations from
California, mostly. Leo Turner,
Keller Wagner and Powder
Proctor were three of the strong
est hopefuls but each has been
licked.
Zim thought Proctor was the
most likely of the trio.
"No one ever questioned the
negro boy's gameness. ; He -received
a fractured Jaw in a bout
with Tony Kahut at Salem a
couple of years ago. Usually
such an incident has a tendency
lo maKe the recipient a bit gun
sny. coming ot the sort annear-
ed in Proctor's performance
against Costello Cruz last Fri
day night."
The Western-International lea
gue chiefs will meet at Tacoma
Sunday to determine whether
or not the circuit has stamina
enough to try another season in
a war year. Club owners .have
announced Individually and col
lectively their intention to oner-
ate but recent sales of players
to coast league teams suggests
tne beginning of liquidation.
