The 18-hole match was played over tho Snn Jose Country club course for benefit of the north ern California PGA war rehabili tation fund WASHINGTON, April 16 fPi Misty, chilly wcuther today caused the opening gnme of the major league baseball scuson be tween the New York Yankees and Washington Senators to be called off. Tho gume has been dedicated to tho memory of the late Presi dent Ilooscvelt und the postpone ment was mudo with consider ubla reluctance. Threats of rain and cold wcuther hung on during the morning but Owner Clurk Grif fith held off until after noon lo announce the postponement. Speukcr Sam Unburn was se lected to pitch the first bull, murklng the first time in base ball history thut tho honor had gone to a member of congress. It usuully is reserved for the president or vice president. The dodlcutoi-y ceremonies to Mr. Hoosevolt will be curried out Friday when the Senutors face tho Yankees here after a three duy series in Philadelphia. It is the fourth wurtimc sea son und comes ut u time when the end of the wur in Germany is at hund with perhups the first stugus oi a return lo normalcy.

America's millions of men In Europe will lose no time swinging over from fighting to athletic competition. The war department has at the "klckoff" stage a vast sports program to include every man in uniform. These games eventually may be climaxed by allied cham pionships that will dwarf by comparison the largest of peace time Olympic games. Such countries as England, France, Poland, Brazil, Aus tralia, Canada, New Zealand, ! Yugoslavia and others probably will compete. "And we hope that Russia comes in," said Col. Henry W. "Eskic" Clark, head of the ath letics branch of the army special services division under . Maj. ucn. joscpn w. ayron.

Main and Esplanade ' - " Ann Curtis Yfins Five AAU Titles Presented Sullivan Award After Swim Championships By JIMMY JORDAN CHICAGO, April 10 (IP) Ann Curtis, who only a few years ago was taking lessons to learn to swim, today packed away five gold medals emblematic of na tional swimming titles as well as the Sullivan Memorial trophy, and then began to worry about the national AAU outdoor cham pionship next summer : at Los Angeles. Miss Curtis, unusually shy and mooest lor a girl wno holds more American and world rec ords than any other swimmer of her sex, picked up the five gold medaLs in the women's national AAU indoor swimming cham pionships which ended at the Chicago Town club's pool last night. She not only held her 220 and 440-yard free style titles, but also upset Brenda Hel ser of Hollywood to add the 100 yard free style title to- her list. In addition, the dark-haired mermaid anchored the San Fran-, Cisco Crystal plunge 400-yard relay and 300-yard medley relay teams to victories. The Sullivan Memorial trophy, annually awarded to the out standing amateur athlete of the nation, was presented to Miss Curtis following the swimming championships. She is the first woman to receive the award. Now she mast defend her 100, 200, 440, 880 and 1500 -meter titles in outdoor competition. Miss Curtis was easily the class of the field of more than 50 that competed in the three day meet here. Her only real competition, from Miss Helser, came in the 100 and 220-yard free style events. She won the former Friday night by inches., and then came through in the last lap of the 220 to shake off the challenge of Miss Helser and win by 10 feet. Her 220 time, 2:31.5. was far off the record, and in fact, only one record was broken during the meet. Miss Joanne Wilson, a Northwestern university fresh man, representing the Chicago Lake Shore club, set a' new American standard of 1:15.1 in winning the 100-yard breast stroke. Monday, April IB, 1945 HERALD AND NEW6W1VE Pennant Favorites Selected by Pilots By JACK HAND NEW YORK, April 16 (IP) St. Louis, Chicago,' Pittsburgh and possibly New York will bat tle for the National league pen nant, and St. Louis, Detroit and New York for the American loop flag, according to a digest today of pre-season comment by major league managers for The Associated Press. None ventured an outright pennant pick and all expected their own clubs to show "im provement," qualifying all re marks with "If we can keep what we have." As usual, no n.anager expected his team to finish in the cellar, occupied last year by Washington and the Phillies. The managers followed the general line of reasoning of 78 baseball writers who predicted similar races with another all S.t. Louis world series. O'Neill Enthusiastic Perhaps the most enthusiastic statement by a skipper came from Steve O'Neill of the Detroit Tigers. "' "With the test pitching staff in the league and plenty of good reserves for all positions we're much better prepared for the opening than we were a year ago," said O'Neill. "Hitting has been our big question mark but Rudy York, Roger Cramer and rookie Bob : Maier have been meeting the ball squarely and we may be stronger offensively than we thought." All skippers agreed a fine break from the weatherman who provided unusually warm March and early April left the clubs in the best condition since north ern spring training was inaugur ated. Due to travel restrictions and curtailed exhibition schedules, managers had not been able to size up the opposition accurately. All they knew about the rookies, in most cases, was what they had read. Servicemen May Attend All N.L. Ball Games Free NEW' YORK, April 18 (IP) Every day will be servicemen's day in the National league this year,' according to President Ford Friok who announced to dajr all uniformed- men will be admitted to all games without charges. Sundays and holidays were included. A uniform is the servicemen's pass to all home games of most clubs-and a-trip to the local USO unit will provide the neces sary credentials at Boston, Pitts burgh, St. Louis and Chicago.
