When the Washington Senators go into training at Maryland U., Ossie Blucgc probably will spend some time looking over Ernie Travis, who is playing baseball now but looks like a pretty good infjeld ' er in the same position his Uncle : Cece used to play. They say he can hit, too. OBSERVATION POST Every time a guy like Joe Di ' Maggio, Ted Williams or Peewee Reese goes into service, fans start wondering if he'll be able to come back after the war.. , . Our guess is that most of them will make the grade, if the dura tion isn't too long, because even if they can't play real major league ball for a while, the guys they'll be competing against won't be playing that kind eith- er. " , ONE-MINUTE SPORTS PAGE Members of several Toledo golf clubs have volunteered to give one day a week to helping with the greenskeeping . . . And they'll probably get more exer cise that way than they would lifting divots ... Dr. H. L. Don ovan, president of the U. of Ken tucky, promises that after the war the Wildcats will have a football team that can hold its own with the best in the South eastern conference ... Frank Melton, who first qualified as a Dodger by building a house and forgetting to put a chimney on it, is negotiating for a farm in South Carolina so he'll be able to eat in case anything happens to base ball. TODAY'S GUEST STAR John N. Sabo, Detroit Free Press: "With the 48-hour work week becoming mandatory, we wonder if some of the baseball magnates will have their players cleaning up the park after the games to make up for lost time." SERVICE DEPT. ' When Cadet Samuel P. Stur gis did 1000 sit-ups to break Douglas Gordon's Iowa Pre Flight school record of 800, it looked as if competition between them was at an end because gym classes weren't'long enough for them to do more. But to settle the rivalry, both obtainpH npr. mission to miss their next classes ana have it out. ..': DON CLEVER THESE ' PACKERS Folks up at Green Bay, Wis., must have had advance dope on all those football records Don Hutson set last season.

Top Player Gets 50-Per As Private Joe Di Maggio, Baseball's Top Man, Now Gets $50 as Volunteer Army Inductee MONTEREY, Calif., Feb. 18 (if) Joe Di Maggio, perhaps the greatest baseball player in the game today, is a $50-a-month private on Uncle Sam's team now instead of a $43,750-a-year outfielder for the New York Yankees. Joe, who is 28, married, and has been classified as 3-A by his draft board, volunteered for the army at a San Francisco induction .center yesterday. He breezed through the routine ex aminations, waived the privilege of a seven-day furlough and came to the reception center here with a dozen other raw recruits last night. At this reception center Joe will be fitted out with G-I clothes and be given several days of primary training. Di Maggio's only comment as he went through the induction process was that he hoped to take up baseball again in more pro pituous times and that he had. no preference as to where he would like to be sent. Joe's physical checkup dis closed that the eyes which helped make him a champion slugger and a crackerjack outfielder are just average. While perfect vis ion is 20-20, Joe's left eye tested 20-30 and the right, 20-40. The test for both as 20-25.

Sheehan found that several circuits had in some cases either shifted franchises of outlying cities or dropped them altogether to form a more compact travel area. In this way, rail transpor tation was fully utilized. Leagues whicft have used rail roads are in far better shape to continue than those depending upon other means of transporta tion, he observed. Sheehan confidently predicts that the three double A loops the Coast league, American asso ciation and International league will easily survive In the face of player shortages, dim-outs and gasoline limitations.

Oreaon Sport Notes By FRED HAMPSON Associated Pr.ii Staff Writer New methods of officiating basketball games flourish with each season and over In the Uma tilla country they tried out an Idea the other day which was borrowed from hockey. In a game between Umatilla and Irrigon a personal foul brought a penally of two min utes on the bench for tho cul prit instead of free throw or two for the opposition. At one time Irrigon had only three men on the floor. Uma tilla exercised a little more cau tion and never was more than a man shy at any one time. Sherman Ladd, Irrigon coach, and Tom Chapman, Umatilla coach, both thought the idea had some merit. Lcandcr Quiring of Hcrmlston, who officiated, fig ured two minutes was too much. Matchmaker Joe Waterman of Portland's Boxing club, an or ganization which hns struck It rather rich lately, Is getting des perate for a domestic main eventcr.
