NEW YOKK, April 7 (fl
Horse race bettors who have
been enjoying an enforced vaca
tion for a few days will have a
fresh lot of horses to put their
money on when the eastern sea
son opens tomorrow . . . Shanty
Hogan will manage the ball
team and Rabbit Maranville will
coach at the Fore River, Mass.,
shipyard where they're both
working. And between them,
they'll probably drown out all
the riveters . . . Al Buck is back
covering the fight and hoss race
beats for the N. Y. Post, after
being discharged from the army
because of age.

NO. 1 FAN
One reason why all good ball
players seem to wind up at the
Norfolk naval station is Capt. H.
A. McClure, commanding offi
cer at the base . . . He's the only
non-player allowed to sit on the
bench; He's the first one to
congratulate anyone who socks
a homer and the other day when
Dom Dl Maggio tumbled over
the fence chasing a fly, the cap
tain jumped into the nearest car
' and whizzed out to see if he was
hurt.

Boxers Set for Battle
At High School Smoker
Potike Meets Conroy in Heavyweight
Bout; Pelican Gridders Participate
By VIRGIL GROSS
Boxing will be among the of
ferings on the smoker at the high
fhooUym Tuesday niBht, April
nounccd today when he told the
boxers and their weights.
In a special bout Arnold Mai
atchi at 112 pounds will be pit
ted against Dale Vanderhoff.
Malatchi is about 20 pounds
lighter than Vanderhoff, but is
one of the best fighters in school.
This promises to be a nip and
tuck battle all the way through.
At 125 pounds, Dave Nichols
faces Ernie Dodson. Nichols
looks very good in workouts and
will be hard to beat, but Dodson
is a great scrapper and should
give him a tough fight.
Two bouts will be held In the
145 pound class. Freshmen
Jack Hancy and Ben De Vore
will face each other in a grudge
battle. The other bout will be
Roland Mueller versus Bob
Sawyer. Sawyer is a hard punch
er and may give Mueller plenty
of trouble.
At 155 pounds, Bob Benson
will tackle Verlin "Oklahoma"
Brummel in a bout which will
be very evenly matched and
may prove to be a very rugged
fight. Benson is fast and a tor
rid slugger. Brummel has more
experience as he has fought on
many amateur cards in Okla
homa before coming out here;
thus giving him a slight edge
over Benson.
Also at 155 pounds, Don Van
derhoff will tangle with Dean
Campbell. Both of these boys
looked impressive in workouts
and are expected to put up a
tough scrap.
In the 165 pound class Don
Mast opposes Neil Mayfield,

Take Sea Lions
For Ball Game
NAPA, Calif., April 7 (JP)
The Oakland Acorns take on
the Alameda Coast Guard Sea
Lions in a training camp base
ball game today with pardon
able hopes that they'll fare bet
ter than yesterday when the
Mare Island Marines defeated
them, 3 to 2.
It took the Marines 11 in
nings to subdue the Oaks, but
on the other hand it was the
fourth defeat for the Coast lea
gue team in five spring exhibi
tions. " It also was Oakland's
third straight extra-inning game,
two of which the Acorns lost.
Italo Chelini was charged
with yesterday s defeat, allow
ing the winning run after be
coming the third Oak hurler.
Pro Grid League
Schedule Thrown
Into Waste Basket
CHICAGO, April 7 (JP) The
National Football league's 1943
schedule, due for consideration
by owners and coaches today or
tomorrow, has been thrown into
the wastebasket by Cleveland's
withdrawal "for the duration.
The Rams' decision, said their
coach, Charles (Chili) Walsh, was
motivated "100 per cent" by the
fact their co-owners, Major Fred
Levy and Lieut. Dan Reeves, are
in the service and unable to
watch their interests as closely
as they deemed necessary.

both seniors. Mast has more ex
perience of the two and Is ag
gressive. This may be a rough
fight as both boys are football
players, and are plenty tough.
There are two bouts in the
175 pound class. Verne Yank
vs. Floyd Hunsaker and Arnold
Selby (football quarterback) vs.
Verne Zimmerman. Both of
these bouts may be outstanding
matches.
In the final bout, heavy
weights Pat Patzke at 203 pounds
and Jim Conroy at 197 pounds
will tangle in what is expected
to be the best fight on the entire
card. For big fellows these boys
arc fast and rugged.
The matches will be three
two-minute rounds and the de
cisions will be rendered by three
judges. A special score card
which was accepted by the
NWAAA several years ago will
be used.
Coach Ramsey is negotiating
with valley high schools and has
hopes for additional matches.
His team has also challenged the
Medford high letterman's club
and if they accept, a home and
home affair will be arranged.
New Outfielder
Signed to Play
With Seattle
LEWISTON, Idaho, April 7
(JP) Bill Katsilometes of Lew
iston, who left professional
baseball in 1940 after exper
ience in the minor leagues, was
signed last night as an outfield
er for the Seattle Rainiers, Man
ager Bill Skiff announced.
Katsilometes, who has been
employed in Lewiston, will join

Boston Bruins
Try Checking
Detroit Wings'
BOSTON, April 7 (IP) The
twice-beaten Boston Bruins, gen
erally at their best performing
before their rabid hockey home
folk, will attempt to check the
high-flying Detroit Red Wings'
terrific surge to the Stanley cup
in their third clash tonight at the
Boston garden.
Both squads arrived yesterday
with all of their members in
playable shape. The Bruins
were downcast about their up
sets on Detroit ice but their spir
its soared when they recalled
they have taken only two drub
bings from the Wings in Boston
during the past six years. One
was in last year's Stanley cup
semi-final series and the second
was in a regular league game
last December.
Bayonet Battles, Ju-Jitsu
Seen as New Sport Events
PHILADELPHIA, April 7 OP)
Bayonet fighting and Ju-Jftsu will
be all the rage as spectator sports
after the war, drawing bigger
crowds than professional boxing
and wrestling, William J. Herr
mann said today.
And Herrmann,, scion of four
generations of physical cultur
ists, ought to know. For 150
years before him hii family
made a neat living by catering
to the whims of sports devotees
here and in Europe, and Herr
mann himself, a former U. S.
fencing and middleweight pro
fessional wrestling champion,
has operated a public gymnasium
here for 45 years. ,'
"After the first war wrestling
was all the rage," he said, "and
after this war it will be bayonet
fighting and ju-jitsu that peoplo
will pay to sec--the kind of
close combat that the marines
are making famous. We put on
a Ju-jitsu show at the stage door
canteen the other day, and it ab
solutely brought down the
house." ;

New Phillies
Man Getting
'Great Kick'
HERSHEY, Pa., April 7 (fP)
This probably sounds like a guy
cheering the arrival of his
mother-in-law, but Stanley R.
Harris is getting - "a terrific
kick" out of managing the
Phillies.
It could be that Bucky's thrill
comes from the knowledge that
he definitely has escaped from
Bobo Ncwsom, becauso at his
request, Bill Cox, the Phils' new
owner, turned thumbs down
when Branch Rickey wanted to
trade him the big wind from
Hartsvllle, S. C. Bucky admits
that when Bobo could pitch,
there was at least a reason to
put up with him, "but now that
he can't pitch much any more,
well."
Or it could be that the bang
Bucky gets comes from getting
away from tho Washington Sen
ators, which could narctiy oe
called a manager's Garden of
Eden, with or without apple
trees. Yet,' jumping from the
Nats to the Phillies would ap
pear to be something like mak
ing a choice between wearing
