That's straight from John Hans
Lobert, 60-year-old coach who sue
ceeded Doc Prothro as manager last
fall.
''I1l tell you secret" he declared
before he left for New York to at
tend a league meeting. If We don't

that will be swell. But so per cent.
That's our goal"
The last time the Phils hit 500
was in 1882. when they finished
fourth with a record OF 78 games
won against rs defeats. Since then
they never have been higher than
seventh, finishing in the cellar the
last four years.
when I was appointed manager,
continued Lobert, who broke into
the major leagues as a third base
man under the late John McGraw,

6. w., With Zunic Okuy,
Sees Win at Virginia

George Washington's courtmen
were off for Charlottesville today
with high hopes of chalking up
their fourth consecutive victory
against Virginia even with the
knowledge that Gus Tebbell has
pointed the Cavaliers for the game,
particularly for Matt Zunic.
Zunic, safely over midyear ex-
animation barrier that threatened
to bring an untimely end to his
court career, apparently is headed
for an all-time G. w. scoring record
with 146 points to his credit this
season. Forrest Burgess, graduate
of 1882, hung up the existing mark
of 544 points for a three-year over
all mark, and zunic is only five
short of the record at this stage
of the season.

Move Back 70 Florida
To Benefit Browns,
Braves, Vets Feel
Better Spring Training
Schedules Seen Help;
Not Hurt by Droft
By the Associated Press.


SARASOTA, Fla, Feb. 3.-Out-
fielder Johnny Cooney of the Boston
Braves and Catcher Rick Terrell of
the st. Louis Browns expect their
clubs shift back to Florida for
spring training to benefit both
teams.
They said the Florida climate
should help, but the principal ben
eft would come from more repre-
sentative spring schedules and a
better line on what to expect from
the opposition in the regular season.
The Browns and Braves trained
in San Antonio, Tex, last spring.
This year Boston will hold its pre-
season sessions at Sanford and St.
Louis at Deland, bringing to IL the
number of major league clubs
training in Florida.
81 think the change will help the
Browns a lot in the spring training
schedule as it will give them more
of an opportunity to get a line on
other major league players" ex-
planned Terrell.
Cooney added: Major league
competition in spring training is
important. Last year we met only
the Browns and played them all the
way in"
Farrell said he also believed the
Browns chance would be improved
because "of the inroads the draft
has made on the younger players
in the other Enthusiastically we
lost one or two, but we have a pretty
good bunch of players for this sea-
SON"
Cooney also was optimistic, declar-
ing I'VE have lost only one player
in the draft. Last year we had q
great many younger players needing
experience. With that polishing oil
they got in major league competi-
ton, they should be able to do lot
better"

BY THOMAS r.. HENRY.

The meat ration of the American
soldier has been increased about 50
per cent to satisfy the soldiers
tastes.
The coffee ration has been cut
almost in half because this genera
ton of soldiers drinks milk.
These are the outstanding changes
which will be incorporated in the
1943 edition of the Bible of mess
sergeants," the Army Cook, on which
a group of 10 of the countrys fore
most woman nutritionists now are
at work.
Working under the direction of
the Quartermaster Corps, they have
undertaken revision of recipes
for Army dishes, based on the newer
knowledge of nutrition and the
changed eating habits in the homes
from which the soldiers come.
Most of the old standbys of 1918
remain. but sometimes with differ
ent and more exact proportions.
"Slumgullion" is practically un-
changed Properly cooked, the nu-
triton experts say, it is one of the
most tasty and satisfying dishes
possible. Badly cooked, it may be
terrible mess, but it is harder to

make a mess of it than of some
other recipes. Baked beans have
just as much prominence as ever
and there seldom is any objection
to them.
Gold Fish" Eliminated.
The one fundamental dish which
has been all but eliminated is gold
fish" because it is becoming rapidly
just what the name signifies
Canned salmon, which in the last
war sometimes was served three
times a day, Is now a dish for
wealthy epicures.
The Army cook followed by mess
sergeants of the First World War re-
manned essentially the same as in
1880. It was. not actually revised
until 1925 when the new science of
nutrition came over the horizon
Since then it has kept abreast of
scientific advances.
When the present Army began to
expand with selectees 1t soon was
realized that the men were reflect

the American people. They came

pend largely on concoctions of soy
beans.
Marines Once Got Rum.
The revisers of the Army Cook
are not worrying over minerals and
vitamins. If soldier eats his full
ration he is bound to get enough
of all of them. 1t has developed.
however. that the new soldier is not
much of vegetable eater. Before
long, it is hoped. he will develope
tastes not cultivated at home.
Desserts are prescribed at least
twice day and scores of tasty
recipes are being prepared or re-
vised.
The Oldest ration sheet the other

Barber in charge of the revision

on shipboard in 1894. For six men
per week it called for AZ pounds
of bread, IL pounds of flour, Il
pounds of beef, II pounds of pork.
Az pounds of cheese. II pints of
dried peas, l8 pints of oatmeal and
pints of vinegar. 1t also called
for 2l2 pounds of butter, supposedly
including most other fats. and AZ
pints of rum, or pint per man
per day.
Improving Quality.
The present work of revision, 1t
is explained, is not so much directed
at developing new dishes as at pre-
scribing more precisely amounts and
quality of ingredients A pinch of
salt in the right place might mean

salt. carelessly put into a pot by an
uninstructed cook, might ruin the
| flavor.
After all, Miss Barber explains,
there is little need to change the
| fundamental dishes. They are the
result of long experience in the
tastes of soldiers and the average
recruit soon develops an appetite
for them, if they are properly pre-
pared.
The Nations food industries have

is found, lots of the men drink no
coffee and few return for a second
cup. The allowance has been cut
down to four pounds. A half pint of
milk, when it can be obtained, is
allowed the soldier for breakfast,
This has raised an acute problem in
some Southern camps in areas where
there are few dairies.
Bigger Meat Eaters.
The new soldiers are bigger meat
eaters. The allowance now is so
pounds of carcass beef per 100 men
per meal, instead of the old ration
of As pounds. This includes bones,
fat and all. Comparative substitute
allowances are made when boned
beef is served
In World War days the total ra-
ton provided 4,500 calories per day.
The heat-energy produced by food
Is measured in calories-they mostly
come from starches, fats and sugars.
1t is estimated that an active civil
ian needs 4,500 a day. In the new
Army cookbook. however. this is
cut down to 1900. 1t was found that
the average soldier would not eat
enough, in spite of sharpened ape
tite, to supply the allegedly ideal
amount and presumably did not
need it.
On the other hand the amount
Of protein has been almost precisely
doubled over that prescribed as ideal
for civilians. Proteins are provided
largely by lean meats. Information
reaching here is that the German
ration recognizes the same necessity
and provides almost exactly the
same amount of protein as the
American. Instead of juicy meats,
