new SERVICE
LOOP FORMED;
TEN TEAMS
INAUcuRATEs SEASON SUM-
DAY; OLD AMERICAN AND
NATIONAL LEAGUES DIS
cARDED

Organization of a new ten-tean
baseball league which will inaug-
urate its season Sunday under the
familiar name of the Island Ser
vice Mems circuit took place at 9
meeting in the MOB Recreation
Office this week.
The present loop composed OF
+, the National and American di-
visions has been discarded and the
ten outfits included in the new
one will all start from scratch
with two doubleheaders on the
opening days slate.
Games will be played seven days
a week thereafter until the middle
of September with doubleheaders
on Sundays. All contests will be
seven innings. Weekday games
win start at 1900. Sundays the twin
bills will get underway at 1880.
The cotingents to take part are:
Coast Guard, Naval Air Station,
Naval Operating Base, Craig's
Dock, Sound School, Marines,
Hospital, Section Base, Fort Tay-
lor and Boca Chica.
The schedule will be arranged
so all the teams will alternate
their playing fields. Half of their
contests will take place on the
MOB diamond and the other half
on the Army Barracks field.
Revision of the old circuit was
deemed necessary with the trans
fer of two nines-the 50th Coast
Artillery and the 263rd Coast Ar
tillery-and the loss of compile
ment at the Receiving Station.
Consequently the play has the
players of the now defunct Com
missary Store contingent being
placed on the auction block" for
selection by either the Hospital OF
Boca Chica terms in an endeavor
to strengthen both lineups.
The complete schedule will be
drawn up at gathering of the
baseball committee and official
scorekepeers Friday night. The
committee is headed by Ensign
Joseph Justice, Asheville, N. c., Of
the MOB Recreation Department
as chairman; Ensign Fred Pear
son, Wilmington, Ohio, of the
Coast Guard; Chief Alex H. Jaffee
Z Flint, Mich, of Craig's Dock
Chief John c. O'Connor, Cliffside
N. j., Sound School; and Sgt
Grady McNabb, Jacksonville, rep.
resenting Fort Taylor.
This governing board will meet

Yale Reports Record Num-
Der of Contributors to
Alumni Chest

more alumni than ever before con-
tributed to the Yale Alumni Fund,

trbiutors to 13.485, according to the
fifty-third annual report published

creased unrestricted income to Off
set rising costs of the war, Yale
graduates have exceeded last years
contributions for current use by
$64,816, with a total amount Of
$255, $50 in unrestricted gifts.
The largest donation by any one
class was the sum of $32, 1877 given
by the Reunion Class of 1918, whose
members this year celebrated the
25th anniversary of their gradua-
ton. The largest single gift to
principal of the fund was the be-
quest of Edward A. Wilson, III, OF

per cent contributions. The Re-
union Glasses of '93, '98, 'O3, O8.

We alumni will make sure that
Yale is kept in such sound condi-
ton that she can adjust herself
overnight to sudden demands, what
ever their nature. AS she has done
during SO many years." concluded
Mr.. Fields, yale must continue in

SHOP TRAINING
FOR VETERANS
Special Meeting Called to
Consider ReCOnverSiOn
of State War Plants

Need for industrial training in
the reconversion of factories to
peacetime production ard the re-
turn of war veterans to jobs IN
industry was emphasized today by
L. j. Alderman, dean OF the
School of Business Administration
of the University of Connecticut.
On Friday of this week indus
trial training coordinators ap-
pointed by factory executives will
meet at New Haven and Hartford
to hear detailed plans for a COM
plete training program adaptable to
any industry. The meetings have
been arranged by the Committee
on Manufacturing of the Connect
cut War Council at Sprague Hall,
Yale, at 10 a. m, and at Bushnell
Memorial Hall, Hartford, at 2 p. m.
Federal and state training agencies
will conduct the training courses.
Dean Alderman, who is advisor
on management for the training
program in the Hartford area, said
he had found enthusiastic interest
in the plan. Indications are" he
said, that training is coming into
it's own when this war is over. There
will be very few industries that
do not have a training program"
Training can be tremendously
important in the reconversion pro-
gram" Dean Alderman said. pres
ent workers will have to be retrained
for new jobs and returning veterans,
some of whom will be disabled, will
present a special problem. The
boys are starting to come back. It's
a trickle now, but soon 1t will be a
stream. We must be ready for
them"

5NewAppeal Boards
Granted By Hershey
Governor Baldwin to Name Members; 10000 COnnec-
tiCut Draft Cases Awaiting Review

Hartford, Dec. is - Lieutenant
Commander John r. Robinson,
State Selective Service director,
announces his request for five ad-
ditional draft appeal boards in Con-
necticut to help review occupatfonal
deferments, has been granted by
Maori General Lewis B. Hershey.
The boards will be nominated by
Governor Baldwin, he said, and the
names will 60 to Washington for
presidential approval. It is expected
the new board members will be
appointed within 10 days, Com
mander Robinson said. This will
bring the number of appeal boards
in the state to 13.
Need for the boards arose under
the new father draft law, which
places the responsibility of review
ing the cases Of all men employed in
areas not in their home appeal
areas, with the appeal boards where
they work. Commander Robinson
said there are approximately 10000
such cases in Connecticut.
He would make no comment on
statements by appeal board heads
that on statements by appeal board
heads that the new task confront
ing them was Staggering" in pro-
portion and might easily not be
completed before drafting ends. The
10 boards will apparently have to
review 5000 cases apiece, which are
rouhgly twice as many cases as
most boards have handled since the
advent of Selective Service in No
vember, 1940
Appeal boards which cover speci-
fed areas In each state, are made
up of five members including a
chairman. The members work with
out remuneration, from one or two
evenings a week, to a full day and
an evening when appeals are heavy.
Heretofore appeal boards were
empowered to rule on the classifi-
cation of any registrants in their
areas, who appealed from the local
board. The decision of the board of
appeal is final, unless reversed by
the board of review in Washington.
Under the new law, however, ap-
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-12-16

peal boards must review certain
cases regardless Of whether or not
an appeal is made.
Commander Robinson also had
no comment to make on Attorney
Wallace w. Browns charge that
reviewing these cases will be "bar-
rem labor" because in most in
stances, where the appeal board
does not go along with State Sell
ective Service headquarters recon-
mendations for deferments. Head
quarters appeals to the review board
and wins the deferment anyway.
