Major League Stars
In Army Get Action
In Semipro Series
BY the Associated Press.

WICHITA, Kans., May 30.-Some
Of those 80 major league players
now getting in their blows with
Uncle Sans service clubs may find
themselves in a worlds series after
all.
Ray Dumont. president Of the
national semi-pro baseball congress,
said today present indications were
that 200 Army clubs would be rep
resented in the 48-State semi-pro
championships. The winners will
compete in Wichita for the national
title and the right to play in the
international series at Havana,
Cuba, next October.
Last year the best an Army club
the Fort Riley CKansD C. r. T. G.
could do was seventh place in
the national semi-pro ratings.
But Dumont believes that because
the service teams have been
strengthened by players from the
major and minor leagues, Army
clubs this year will be on par with
industrial and town teams.

Spence home.
New York greeted Hudson en-
Enthusiastically, hammering two runs
off him in the first inning. Crosetti
opened with single to left and
after Hassett popped out, Heinrich
propelled Frankie around with a
lusty triple to right. Heinrich scored
as Estalella twice juggled Di Mag
gio's grounder before nipping him
at first.
New York Piles Up Score.
In the fourth nning.the Yankees
parlayed three singles into two
more runs. Keller and Gordon
smashed successive singles, but Kel-
Ter was trapped between third and
the plate and run down when Rosar
tapped to Hudson, Gordon pausing
at second.
Rizzuto's single to left sent Cor
don across and shifted Rosar to
third and Rosar scored as Estalella
threw out Rufflng
New York produced its final run
In the eighth, Heinrich walked and
after Di Maggie flied out Keller
punched a double to right, sending
Heinrich to third. Gordon was
passed purposely, filling the bases,
but Heinrich scored after Rosar flied
to Spence. Keller and Gordon were
stranded as .Rizzuto famed.

in the seventh pitched well, but the
Dodgers couldn't overcome the COM

Giants Blast Allen.
The Giants punched 6 of their IL
safeties in their big inning, as Allen
suffered his fourth defeat.
Manager Mel OFT of the Giants
went through the twin bill without
batting in a run and still needs three
more to break the record OF 1882
which Rogers Hornsby left behind
in the National League.

Bart this. No real woman would
want to hold a man who didn't
love her. She must keep it from
him, let him go to Sandra. She
could not tell Jan, who had
looked at her this afternoon
with such bleak, bitter eyes.
Nor her mother - who would
be sure to use this as a means
of reconciliation.
She let herself into her apart
ment, where the telephone was
jangling shrilly. Her mothers
agitated voice answered from
the other end. Christie, where

SURPRISE

SURPRISE
SPOKANE, Wash. - The sign
over door in the medical de-
partment of the induction CEN
ter was highly efficient until a
recruit, blind in one eye, ap-
preached it from his sightless
side.
Clad in his birthday suit he
popped through the door into a

HEARING TROUBLE

CHICAGO - A group of irate
motorists were at the Sheffield
avenue police station to view a
suspect for breaking automobile
windows and windshields. Police
said he had broken 40 car win
dows of all shapes and sizes in
the north side neighborhood in
the last three weeks.
But the suspect didn't pay
any attention to the motorists
nor the police who questioned
him at the showup. He is deaf.
