EDGEWATER PARK. Miss, Dec
30.-Tennessee's Volunteers, a team

in the right frame of mind to shame
a l94l club that sulked into the
Sugar Bowl against Boston College.
Not that any of us feel confident

But the players are big and ambi-
tious and eager. They have a reck-
lessness that hurts us sometimes,
but that same quality has pulled
Tennessee through some ugly
pinches."
Barnhill believes the Tennessee
team that two years ago lost at
New Orleans to Boston College, was
long on polish and short on en-
thusiasm. The Vols were reportedly
glum over failure to receive an an
ticipated bid to Pasadena's Tourney

Now engaged in light tapering off
workouts here, the Vols as a group
are in sharp contrast to bantering,
wisecracking Tulsa. Solemn, almost
grim in their workouts, the Tennes-
scans are almost as grave during of
hours at their palatial coastal hotel.
Meantime at nearby Bay st. Louis,
Tulsa romps through the final stages

Navy's pre-flight schools goes
into effect January l, but nearly
as we can make out it won't
mean any less sports activity.
Instead of each school coming
under their respective naval dis

jurisdiction of the Air Primary
Training Command. Similarly.
the more advanced schools will
come under the Air Opcrational
Training Command. The big
change, which was scheduled
anyway, will be that the teams
will have to do most of their
playing close to home instead of
making those long trips. whose
main purpose was to stimulate

DALLAS. Dec. 30. - Talkative
Bobby Dodd who earned all-America
honorS at Tennessee, then went to
Georgia Tech as assistant coach,
came out today with the observation
that the Cotton Bowl game on New
Year ought to be humdinger of a
scoring bee
He based his prediction on the
fact that Tech and Texas knew little
about each other, although he said
Texas had more information about
his team than vice versa
Il know one former coach from
this State looked Tech over and
gave Texas the information" Dodd
said, but he admitted that the game
in question-Techs $40 defeat by
Georgia-certainly hadn't offered
the Volunteer scout much to work on.
When teams know little about
each other a lot of scoring usually
results" Bobby pointed out.
Dodd also appeared quite pessI-
mistic over Techs chances OF win
ming the game.
Yes, they re bigger tnan we are ana

Confab Here
Commissioner to Give
Details Soon, After
Meeting With Owners
BY BURTON HAWKINS.

Baseball's cooperation with the
Office of Defense Transportation
today was indorsed as pattern for
the Nation by Director Joseph B.
Eastman after a 45-minute con-
ference here with Judge KenesaW
Mountain Lands, commissioner of
baseball.
Mr.. Landis said he made certain
proposals to Mr.. Eastman, who
heartily approved" of them, but
both refused to discuss details. Mr..
Lands said he would call major
league club owners together in the
near future, but that he hadn't de-
cided the exact place nor time of
the meeting.
Baseball is going to do everything
possible calculated to solve the
transportation problem said Mr..
Lands, and were happy to do it.
We don't need any orders. We want
to do and will do what every one will
agree is the decent thing. You can
add, too, that l think it's a very
small contribution to the war effort
on our part"
Mum as to Details.
Pressed to be more specific con-
cerning possible schedule changes
the proposal of President Edward
Barrow of the New York Yankees to
train at home and other measures
Mr.. Lands said firmly, Il don't care
to go into that. l hate to be an old
fogey, but I'm not going to say
another word until l meet with the
cluboWnerS.
Mr.. Eastman emphasized he had
made no requests of baseball since
his letter of November 30 to Mr
Lands. President Ford Prick of the
National League and President Will
liam Harridge of the American
League, in which he suggested ma jor
leagues meet their basic travel re-
quirements during the 1943 season
without waste in space or mileage.
I'm not undertaking to dictate to
baseball declared Mr.. Eastman
I'm trying to curtail transportation
I don't claim to have knowledge of
the intrica cieS of baseball, which is a
great industry
Judge Lands came to me with
certain proposals of which I ap-
prove. I approve of baSeball's CO.
operation with the war effort and
Id say baseball's cooperation with
us might serve as pattern for the
Nation"
Every Inch Saved Helps"
He said ODT simply was con-
cerned with the general problem of
travel Curtailment and that it was
for baseball to decide what it can or
cannot do. Asked if he regarded
training in Florida, for instance, as
creating more of problem for
transportat ton than training in
Georgia. Mr.. Eastman said, Il
wouldn't say it would aggravate
travel conditions further except that
every inch saved helps"
Mr.. Lands remarks to the effect
that baseball doesn't need orders
apparently was prompted by the
fact that ODT presently has nc
power to compel compliance with its
suggestions for curtailing travel.
Since Mr. EaStman's letter to
baseball's heads, most major league
clubs have announced definite or
tentative plans to conduct their
spring training nearer home than
Florida or California.
Mr. Lands arrived here this
morning, and after a conference
with President Clark Griffith of the
Mats at Washington Baseball Club
Offices he said he would return to
his headquarters in Chicago.
