New York, Aug. 9-(UP)-Scat tered paragraphs containing scat- tered thoughts:
 The United States Navy gradually is assembling fine stable of boxers, thanks to the efforts of Lieut. Comdr. Gene Tunney. The former heavyweight champion was in town when Freddie Cochrane, welter- weight titleholder, signed up. Ttln- ney said he was developing the idea that the Navy is "a fighting service and that boxing was proving ex- ttremely popular. Well known box CTS in the Navy include Fred Apos- ton and Georgie Abrams, recent victor over middleweight champion Billy Soose in an over-the-weight match. were going to make Abrams middleweight champion" !" Tunney said.
 Among those who heckle Joe Di- Maggie during batting practice is his brother, Dom. When the Red Sox play the Yankees, Dom perches himself at the top of the dugout steps. Every time Joe hits a ball in batting practice, Dom yells Poop"
 It seems to bother Joe just about as much as the American league pitchers do.
 Fritzie Zivic's loss of the welter- weight title seems to have increased Henry Armstrong's desire to stage a comeback, Reports from the west say that Armstrong is confident he can defeat Freddy Cochrane and get back his championship. Arm strong's fans hope he never tangles with Zivic again, for Henry face was 8 mess the last time they fought. Scar tissue is piled up around Armstrongis eyes and he bleeds easily.
 Everything is shaping up for .an- other one of those dog-eat- -dog races in the National league. The Cardinals and Dodgers are slugging one another silly, the Pirates are getting up to the point where they are dangerous and some time this season the Cincinnati Reds are go- ing to get hot for about two week stretch. If Frank Frisch's pitching holds up, it's not impos- sible for the Pirates to slip into sec, ond place and they have an outside chance for the pennant.
 Meanwhile, in the American league the Yankees are running into the inevitable slump that fol- lows a hot winning streak. But there is nobody around to take ad- vantage of the lapse. The Red Sox can't get pitching to match their power and Cleveland = oh, why bring that up?
 Here in the middle of heat wave the football rosters are be- ginning to roll in from the colleges. Deponent knoWeth not much about the situation in other parts of the country, but the talk back here in the east is that Colgate is going to come up with a whirlwind team this year. Seems there was freshman team at Colgate last year that could take the varsity on almost any given afternoon.
 No matter who wins the National league perinant, the betting men say the Yankees will be favorites in the World Series The boys have plenty of respect for the dynamite In the bats of DiMaggio, Keller, Henrich, Gordon, Dickey & Go.

I NSSAANNNNNENA ~---~~------ reasoning of Pacific coast residents, Q United Press survey of the states of Washington, oregon and Califor- mia showed today.
 The Pacific Telephone and Tele- graph company's communications center ln San Francisco appears to be the only structure protected by sandhags, which are piled to the Sec- ond floor windows. At this stage of the war in London, practically every building with Q street level entrance was barrieaded by Sandbags, some as high as the third floors,
 There has been little precaution taken against flying glass, Some public and commercial buildings in San Diego have built shields of ply wood for their windows.
 In this connection, Col, J. B. w, Corey, head of Seattle's defense commission, thinks such precautions hardly worth considering, Any bombing of that city, he believed, would be only in the form of nui- sance raids and never would they approach the hNts that struck London.
 Some hospitals have been evaeu- Ated, but principally because they were in vital areas, The Veterans hospital at Fort Mlley, San Fran. cisco, has been emptied of all but Q few patients; the balance have been sent to FitSSimmonS General hospital at Denver or to their homes,
 Fifteen crippled children have been moved from the Shrine hoSpi- tai near the Portland airport; chil- dren also have been moved from the Shrine hospital in San Francisco, and a section of the Laguna Honda Home for the Aged In San Francisco hos been elnptied,
 There is little auxiliary fro eQuip- Ment, London, almost overnight, oonjured up trailers to attach to taxioahS to light fires popping up in unexpected places while big appa. ratus was busy elsewhere.
 San Francisco plans to order aux iliArles, but will not attach them to taxieabs. Fire Chief Charles Bren- nan feels such equipment is best handled by men familiar with 1t. It would be attached to city owned trucks.
 San Diego has called upon mem bers Of motorcycle clubs and has lS0 men ready to act as contact rnes- sengerS during blackouts,
 Almost every coast city appears to Do adequately supplied with water for emergencies barring the unfore- seen bombing or reservoirs. There are no air raid shelters, con- structed as such, although the San Francisco civilian defense council has made available blueprints showing the best methods of constructing them, Councils in other cities have surveyed bomb-proof buildings to determine if they are suitable for housing residents during actual raids, but there are no immediate plans to build public shelters.
 Generally, the coast is well fixed for manpower to meet any conceiv- able situation. but lacks essential compliment. This Is being remedied as rapidly as possible.

WAR INFORMATION
 TO BE CENSORED

continue to cover the news in Wash- ington as they always had.
 No Help to Enemy
 The primary objective of the cen- sorship will be to prevent the pub- lication or dissemination of any in- formation which might Do helpful to the enemy. Mail, cable and radio messages going in and out of the country will be censored.
 So far as domestic publication or hroadcasting of news is concerned, Early said the censorship would operate principally ct the sources of information.
 He was asked whether news- papermen, particularly Washington correspondents and hroadcasters, would have to submit their mater. ial in advance to Prices office. Early said he knew of no such prospect unless 1t involved exclusive stories including war news which had not been distributed by a rec. ogniSed government agency.
 Even on such exclusive stories, Early said he did not know that submission of these items to the censorship would be mandatory, but the correspondents certainly should" SUI init such articles for approval lest they contain facts of military or naval importance.
 Early said the organization to be set up by Price would not in any sense be an agency for disSemina- ton of news as was the committee of public information during the first World war. Working with Price will be an inter-departmental com- nlittee of international experts who will have the bulk of responsibility in checking announcements and re- leases of government press sections in advance.
 Early pointed out that before the war the army, the navy, the post office and the Federal Commlnica- tions commissions all had their separate plans of censorship, but that no overall plan existed. The committee headed by Walker has been at work studying the best single comprehensive system and the inter-departmental committed for some time has checked govern ment releases in advance for pulp lication.
 Early contrasted the forthcoming censorship system with the CPI of World War days which had its own staff of reporters who covered in- divisual departments, then released their findings through a central bureau.
 The plan now is better and quicker, with no long delays" Early said.
 Government sources of ineorma- tlon will remain open because the government considers it .'lnost iin- ss~~tAnk" ta tran1Enit news from the

 The decree specified that labor laws and "the exercise of other legal rights" would not be affected, Tn view Of this, lt was not known defl. nitely to what extent Castillo would use his far-1iung powers,
