Washington, December IT. -- tUP) A suggestion that the major baseball leagues be divided into eastern and western divisions to cut down travel Is not being pushed" by oDT Director Joseph B. Eastman, it was revealed today,
 A spokesman for the Office ot Defense Transportation said that if the suggestion is considered feasible" the oDT would be will Ing to talk 1t over with the league heads but that Eastman didn't originate the idea and Is not push ing It."
 Future Plans
 The ODT said 1t expects the major leagues to submit suggestions soon after January l for further travel-saVing revisions in their l94S schedules. Eastman then will make recommendation la time for the leagues to complete plans at their February meetings.
 In a letter to the major league meetings early this month, Eastman suggested that tentative l943 sched- uleS be re-eXamined to cut travel, He proposed closer training bases th9n heretofore and reduction of exhibition schedules.
 Baseball officials already have voluntarily cut the circuit swings from four to three. An ODT spokeS- man said ro further reductions were expected along this line.

 Calloused observers interpreted this as ostentation but we are happy to say the fighter stilled their pretty voices in the end when he retired as champion in deference to his mothers sentiments. The retire. ment was carried out in an atmos- phere of heavy dignity combining the more oppressive qualities of a royal funeral and an armistice that nosterity would be accurately in- formed the fighter even issued an official statement.
 We recall that Uncle Will Gibson, who handled Leonard, was not emo- tionally overcome when he distrib- uted the statement to the press.

the Washington squad are depart Ing along with their coach, Ray Flaherty, Whether there will be any professional football next year is a guess. Very wisely, the club owners decided not to go through with the formality of the draft yesterday de- spite the insistence of the Cleveland owner, who took the contradictory stand that the draft should be held, on the one hand, and that the league should disband for the duration, on the other. This just didn't make sense and the owners deferred &C., ton on the draft until April. By that time they are hopeful the overall sports picture will be somewhat clearer.

 New York, Dec. l7-UP)-Al Schacht, the Clown Prince" of baseball-the right-handed pitcher who always thinks left-handed- was having difficulties with the help at his Sand street tavern last night. It seemed he had locked him. self In the pantry to work unmo- tested on his latest invention.
 With aid from the fire depart- ment and insurance patrol, Schacht finally was shucked out of his pan- try retreat. And he beloved, "why can't you leave me alone? I have just perfected machine that will build the perfect snowfall for base ball teams that cant go to Florida for the training season because of transportation difficulties.
 This training snowball of mine will conserve unlimited rubber that might be used as a core for base balls. It also will conserve Balata." Schacht said. You've got to watch Balata because he always pitched himself out in the exhibition sea- son.
 Dog Trainer
 Schacht Is very proud of his Snow-making machine. But this strange and large-nosed man gets even greater satisfaction from the success he has had in training a squad of large and liquid eyed St. Bernard dogs. owned by a friend, who will serve baseball players con- dition!ng in the north.
 "Just as in Switzerland" Schatht says, These St. Bsrnards will set out with their little casks of giggle soup beneath their furry necks to lend succor (and don't mean sucker) to the snow-bound infl.ad- CTS and outfielders.
 T am training those dogs to help the game that has been so good to me. And if those dogs carry, in their little casks, what think they will, I'll he only too glad to serve as guide for the canines on their routes"
 Tn making his plans for tie ap- preaching training season, Schacht figures that most of the major league teams will be conditioning at Lake Placid, N. F., instead of Flor Ida. This is because of the trans oortation difficulties raised by Washington.
 Third base normally is known as the hot corner" Schacht said But when our athletes are train- ng on snow-maniled fields. I am confident that honfires will be built above every base. so that the run uer-comlng on skis or skates-can distinguish the bag"

her to come down for the week end
