Dick Hanley of the marines, former big time col lege coach, told the Washington Touchdown club that the only good reason for football is that it helps entertain the boys over seas. ... If football coaches want to do a real service, said Dick, they can take the kids who never have played football and tough er 'em up. Fellows who have played the game don't need that extra training. Of course, you might argue, that's just what they do. If there wasn't any foot ball there wouldn't be that group which is ahead of the rest in physical condition. Even though the footballers represent less than one per cent of the men in the armed forces. bUOTE. UNQUOTE Also from Hanley: "Those kids overseas gobble up what pews they can get about sports and short wave broadcasts of games entertain them. That's football's biggest service in time of war.

June 7 W It took only a 15-minute ride from the LaGuardia airport to a mid town hotel to convince Gunder Haegg that New York City isn't a place for a Swedish country boy to get in shape for a series of foot races. "The heat is oppressive and will be my trouble here," he panted through an interpreter after asking Lars Ekelund, New York paper mogul and his chief adviser while in the United States, to find him a training site with "fewer buildings, fewer people and less heat." , Dartmouth's tree studded cam pus, Princeton, Bear mountain and several Long Island resorts are under consideration although the holder of seven world rec ords at distances from 1500 to 5000 meters has another work out scheduled for Columbia uni versity's Baker field late today. Haegg arrived at New Orleans Saturday after an ocean voyage on a safe conduct tanker that left his native Sweden on May 10. Although he had the bene fit of a (special 400-yard steel track aboard ship, the Gacvle fireman gained nine pounds on the journey. Although he said he was far out of condition and needed at least seven weeks of training, Haegg said he would compete in at least one race in the national AAU championships at Randalls island June 19 and 20. "I will be a sportsman," he answered by the translation of Sven Dahlman, first secretary of the Swedish legation in Wash ington, "and I have been told that American track fans are sportsmen and will understand." Previously he had been quot ed as-saying he would not be in shape for any competition until July 1, at the earliest. Although he would not be def inite, Haegg indicated he would oppose Greg Rice in the 5000 meters at the nationals and pass up the 1500 meter duel with Gil Dodds, although the visitor later classified himself as a miler in preference to the longer races. He showed further disdain for $5," right down to "one sack oats, $3.65 and one shank, $1." . . . "That totals $47.65 and I'll throw in a tub and a bucket Jack offered. . . . "But what will you take for the horse?" Bill asked. . . . "Oh, Meier explain ed, "Tabellarius goes with the shank.

If the American people will mass solidly behind the war, their strength will reinforce the spirit of the men in the armed forces.

'( LESS DRIVING MORE SERVICE? In many cases, the effect of wartime conditions on car driving is a considerable reduction in the distance a Car travels every month. And the strange effect of this is that it can happen that less driving may create a need for more service. Official sources have said that any car which travels less than 90 miles a month does not get enough ''exercise" to keep in good "trim," While this low mileage may not always prevail here, the same kind of logic calls for a recasting of ideas about servicing. That's why it is a smart move to go into the details of possible special servicing requirements resulting from wartime driving. A good car dealer is always glad to talk over problems concerned with car care and driving habits, and is always glad to give helpful advice. If the way you use your car now is changed to any extent from peacetime habits, it may have made necessary a oew slant on the attention you give it It pays to know about such possibilities and make sure your car is getting the proper attention whether it results in more service or less. H. E. HAUGER 1330 Main St. I'AliE SIX Dodgers Out Of 1st Spot In National Shortstop Trouble Worrios Brooklyn; Redbirds Top Senior Circuit By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer The Brooklyn Dodgers are out of first place and in a dither. The curious club whldi led tho National league from the start of the season until last week-end, when It slipped into the shadow of the St. Louis Cardinals, is af flicted with a malady known as acute sensitivity of tho shortstop. This has been a sore spot all the while the Dodgers have been stumbling through the west Manager Leo Durochcr, once one of the flashiest fielders of them all, has remained on the active list this season presumably just to step into situations such as this, yet for reasons best known to himself he has not played a single game this season. In recent days he has shuffled Arky Vaughan, Rookie Boyd Bartlcy and ' Reserve Catcher Bob Bragan in and out of the job with no credit to anyone. Yes terday the Dodgers managed to beat the Chicago Cubs 4-3 in the first game of a doublchcadcr, but were shellacked ll-s in tnc nightcap and misadventures by Bartley and Bragan, sharing the shortstop role, set up situations which enabled the Cubs to score eight of their 1 1 runs. They clus tered five tallies in the fourth inning and four in the sixth. Meanwhile weather limited the Cardinal's game with the Phillies to tivo innings and a 1-1 tie. Their second game was post poned, leaving the Redbirds high, if not dry, and half a game on top of tho senior circuit. Weather also forced postpone ment of the Boston Braves' sec ond game at Cincinnati, but the two teams got in a 14-inning opener which tho Reds finally won 4-3 on Eddie Miller's single with the bases loaded. Elmer Riddle, going the route, allowed no Boston runs after the first inning. In the other National league action Pittsburgh made 25 runs to the New York Giants' one In sweeping a doublcheadcr, 18-1 and 7-0. Bob Klinger pitched five-hit ball behind the Bucco's 18-hit barrage in the first game and Jack Hallctt followed with a four-hit shutout. The New York Yankees pre served their margin In front of the American league with a pair of victories over the St. Louis Browns, 2-1 in 11 Innings and 10-6. The first game, which was St. Louis's seventh overtime tus sle in eight contests, was a duel between Pitchers At Holllngs worth and Atlcy Donald and was decided on three singles in the eleventh. Two home runs by John Lindell and one by Nick Etten. who together drove in eight runs, easily took the night cap.
