NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-Those Cap
ital City cuties who drew a Con-
gressman's reprimand for not 60
ing to bed early now have 81 more
good reasons to avoid staying at
home evenings with good book
this summer
Clark Griffith, president Of the
Washington Senators, obtained per-
mission from baseball's major
league bosses yesterday for 81 after
dark contests-to aid the war eff
fort by bolstering Washington mo-
rale.
The remaining Is big-league
clubs may play up to Il games

Griffith demanded 20 contests. but
the others opposed it. The compro-
mise was effected by Commissioner
K. M. Lands.
Must End Games by 1880.
Not only did Griffith and his
major league pals give the fans more
night baseball but they extended the
curfew as well. In the past no

The increase Of arc contests didn't
receive universal approval. Larry
MacPhail, general manager of the
Brooklyn Dodgers, who introduced
the after-dark phase to the majors.
said she wasn't sure his club would
take advantage of the increase.
Roger Peckinpaugh, general man
ager of the Cleveland Indians, tndi-
Gated his club might play some Of
the allotted contests as twilight
affairs, starting at $50 pm.
N. L. Revises It's Schedule.
After their joint meeting with the
American League bosses, the Ma
tional League chieftains immedi-
ately began revising their schedule
to accommodate the extra night
games. Both leagues, however, re-
tanned Tuesday, April IA. as the
starting date, with these pairing:
American League-New York at
Washington, Philadelphia at Bos-
ton, Cleveland at Detroit, st. Louis
at Chicago.
National League - Brooklyn at
New York, Boston at Philadelphia
Pittsburgh at Cincinanti, Chicago
at ST. Louis.
The moguls also decided that
pitchers who appear in the first
All-Star game in New York on
July cannot hurl in the second,
the site still undetermined, on July
7. A moundsman may stay for five
innings, however, instead of the
customary three.
1t was decided also that all Off
Gals would accept 10 per cent of
their salaries in Defense bonds and
would recommend that the players
do likewise. The athletes also will

Naval Air Corps and will report for
duty February IL.
His departure, and that OF his
brother, Roy, 81, who plans to join
the Marines or Navy soon, will break
up the famed Bietila brothers skiing
team that has been prominent in
jumping tournaments for more than
q decade.
Their leaving will place on the
shoulders of l7-year-old Ralph, last
of the six brothers and national
junior champion last year, the bur-
den of carrying on the Bietila name
More Jumpers Coming Up.
But it may not be for long. be-
cause there's another generation OF
Bietilas coming along-sons Of two
of the brothers. The sons are only
6 and 7 years old now, but they al
ready are skiing and will be jumping
in tournaments soon. They learn
early in this family.
The six brothers-Anselm, Leon
ard, Walter, Paul. Ray and Ralph
were taught to ski by their father
Jacob, soon after they learned to
walk.
When each boy was 4 years old
Jacob. who learned skiing on the
hills of Finland, fashioned pair OF
skis for him and guided him of a

small hill near their home. BY the
time they were 10 the brothers were
jumping of Suicide Hill" steep
slide, here. They started to win tour
nament honors in their teens.
Anselm and Leonard, "a and 80
respectively, were the first to gain
fame for the family through tour
nament victories. Both have re-
tired from competition now and live
here. They have the sons who are
learning to ski.
Walter was the third brother. He
gained fame as an athlete at the
University of Wisconsin, from which
he was graduated in 1899, and in ski
tournaments all over the country.
In 1910 he was rated third behind
forge Toxic and ALI Engen in ma
tional listings. His best-known
jump was 270 feet.
Ski Injuries Fatal.
Next was Paul, two years younger
than Walter. Paul died two days
before his 21st birthday of injuries
received while ski jumping in 1899.
At the time Of his death, Paul, a
student at Wisconsin, was inter-
collegiate champion and had jumps
up to $50 feet to his credit.
Rays best Jump in competition
was 252 feet, although he has done
better than 270 on big slides in
Northern Michigan. Ralph's best
competitive jump was 225 feet; his
longest In practice, 260 feet.

have to worry about the posi-
bility of a blackout during the

Judge Lands did 1t arbitrarily.
Just as the National League people
seemed ready to duplicate the senti-
ment of the American League and
allow Washington twice as many
nocturnal games as any other big
league team.
Magnate Isn't Satisfied.
Griffith, who originally had hoped
to have "a night games in Wash

and changed it to % games for the
sake of dealing in round numbers.
If the two st. Louis clubs. for in

Lands cut it from % to 81 and,

Air Fighters, Says

Joe Heistond Compares
Planes to Birds as
Difficult Targets
By the Associated Press.

by the ASSOCIATED PreSS.
MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 4.-American
kids, says veteran trapshooting ex-
pert Joe Heistand, ought to make
the best aerial gunners in the
world because they've learned al
most from childhood how to shoot
quickly"
From what pursuit flyers say
about it, believe almost any good
trapShooter could make a good air
gunner-provided, of course, he had
sary," explained the Hillsboro, Ohio,
ace, whose feat of breaking 1,179
successive targets stands as a world
record
Same Qualities Needed.
"The same qualities are needed in
both-you have only a split second
when you're on the target. You've
got to get your shots away fast
that means that in both you need
speedy coordination of mind, eye
and muscle. It's a cinch you can't
be very deliberate about either one"
Bird hunting-a pastime of thou
sands of American youngsters
probably is only slightly less eff
fective than trapshooting for de-
veloping the ability to shoot quick
ly and accurately, Heistand believes.
"I believe trapshooting is a little
better because you learn to Judge
target distances and leads better"
he explained, but hunting birds
still trains a person to shoot fast
and straight and to time his shots
right"
Americans Win Abroad.
He doesn't think any foreign ma
ton can approach the general level
Of skill of American marksmen.
1--WE don't have very much inter-
national trapshooting. he remarked.
but every time one of our boys goes
to Europe to shoot he wins most Of
the prizes"
Heistand. who was North Ameri-
can amateur champion in 1910,
stopped here briefly while en- route
to a shoot in Cuba.
