the direction of former President
Herbert Hoover.
Plans provide for the first open
tennis tour with amateurs play
ing professionally, the first all-star
rookie baseball game. Tony
Galento-Maxie Baer prize fight.
Pan-American track and field
Olympics, an international amateur
boxing tournament. and assisting
events in virtually all sports.
Joe Williams, sports director
of the New York World-Tele-
gram and chairman of the
funds sports committee, was
concentrating today on obtain
ing permission from the Inter-
national Tennis Federation for
the open tennis tour.
Never have amateur racqueteers
been permitted to play profess
SIGNALS in public. However. per-
mission is expected to be granted
because wars have temporarily
stymied international tennis COM
petition.
If the tour is permitted, Will
iams hopes that the initial open
matches will be staged at Madison
Square Garden in late February
and then continue for one-night
stands in the country's major cities.

In this manner. the fans may see
Bobby Riggs. the No. U. S. anna
teur. stacking up against Big Bill
Tilden, king of the golden de-
cade"; and frankie Parker, No. 2
amateur, tackling Don Bulge, pro-

Preliminary plans for the first
all-star rookie baseball game call
for a contest at Miami or st.
Petersburg, Fla, in April between
the best National and American
league freshmen on the IL clubs
training in the south.
Promoter Mike Jacobs of New
York's goth Century club, will
stage a 15-round brawl between
"Two-Ton' Tony Galento, the No.
heavyweight challenger, and Mad
cap Make Baer at Madison Square
Garden, probably March %, if the
New York commission approves.
ALL PROFITS TO FUND
Jacobs announced that all profits
would be contributed to the fund.
This put the commission squarely
on the spot and will virtually force
1t to renew the licenses of Galento
and his manager, Joe Jacobs.
The bout is expected to attract
a gate of S150,000. Galento and
Baer may donate a portion of their
purses.
Dan Ferris, executive secre-

Don't Forget
The Babies!

WASHINGTON-Census Direc-
tor William L. Austin issued
special "don't-forget- baby" in
structions today to enumerators,
who begin the decennial popula-
ton count next Tuesday.
Babies sometimes are the decid-
ing factor in controversies be-
tween communities fighting neck
and-neck battles for population
honors.
Austin ruled that all persons
alive at 1901 a. m, April /, will
be counted. Babies born up to
midnight March 81 will be re-
corded in the census of 1910; those
born afterward will be out of luck
until the next census in 1850.
An average of $50 babies is
born every hour Austin said.
Meanwhile. in one of the census
bureaus annexes, a force of 230
men. working three shifts, are
completing shipment of supplies
to 636 field offices throughout the
country. This force has loaded
Sc carloads-1,311 tons-of census
supplies in the last so days.
In the newly-erected census
building, technicians were masking
a final "tune-up" of the 1900 ma
chimes which will tabulate and
record the returns. More than
600 clerks and supervisors already
are tabulating results of the GEN.
