Todav's Sports Parade

Z, Salvatore will be there.
O'DOul owes his success in signing
San Salvatore to tryout to the
speed and efficiency with which
he investigates any tips that Di-
Maggie is loose on fishing boat
in the Pacific. Lefty has day and
night phone and his tipsters can
reach him a hours a day. Tied up
at a nearby wharf is fast speed
boat, and ten minutes after he was
informed of San Salvatore's pre-
sence on a smack off Monterey,
ODoul was at the controls of the
boat and skimming down the coast.
Rival baseball managers keen for
a DiMaggio. we're outdiStanced by
CDoul, and he had already boarded
San Salvatore's craft and was cx-
planning the rudiments of the game
of baseball to him when his rivals
reached the scene. Disappointed,
they circled the boat while the tri-
umphant ODoul called 10 them that
DiMaggio was not only San Sal
vatore's real name and not Just a
nom de piscatore." but that he
was a cousin OF THE DIMAGGIOS.
There have been two major dis
coveries in California. In l849 gold
was discovered at the mill of old
John Sutter and one of the great
! treasure hunts Of all time was on.
In 1885. eighty-six years later,
the DiMaggios were discovered and
another mad rush was begun. Until
the DiMaggio lode was uncovered
on fishing smacks, baseball explor-
ers had never thought to turn to
the sea for riches. They had done
the jor part of their unearthing
on the soil of sandlotS. Then, on
tipsy fishing smack. that nugget
OF outfielders, Joe DiMaggio, was
! uncovered.
The rush was on. Baseball's pros
pectors put out to sea and every
fishing boat was hailed, boarded,
and searched. Nothing in oil skins
and hip boots was left untouched.
Starboard. port and forward; in
the galley and in the hold; on deck
and below decks the search went on.
Vince DiMaggio was the next major
discovery, and then Dominic. Many
people swear that ODoul, leader
of the biggest exploration. did his
best to get Papa DiMaggio, father
of Joe and Vince and Dominic, and
man nearing sixty, TO slip into a
flannel suit and try his hand at
first base.
ODoul has never denied this,
anymore than he now denies that
San Salvatore will be given every
opportunity to make a successful
transfer from fishing to outfielding.
ODoul firmly believes that there
/ is no such thing as a bad baseball
DiMaggio, anymore than there is
a bad sunrise.
Some are better than Others" he
philosophers, "but give me a man
with two arms, two legs, and a sur
name of DiMaggio and he can play

The honeymoon Is over for Wa terbury volunteers at Fort Devens and the boys are definitely "in the army now" judging from letter one of the local group of IA wrote to close relative here. It may be partly a taste of homesickness, but he says this life at camp is getting tougher every day"

Everything they do seems abso- lutely senseless, and we are the goats"
 Part of the dissatisfaction he reports may come from the fact that the men at camp have all been undergoing injections against typhoid and other diseases.
 The whole side is paralyZed, " says the writer" but they throw 8 pack that actually weighs 54 pounds on fellows shoulder and he marches till he's ready to col lapse"
