Re-exdmindtion

Probable immediate induction of
classified At because of physical
disabilities, into armed service after
being re-examined, loomed today as
sports fans, club owners and athletes
wondered what the future held in
store for them.
Selective service officials pointed
out that the physical condition Of
number of boorderline 4-Fs among
the athletes may have changed since
their last examination and that
forthcoming tests will show them fit
for service. War Mobilization Direc-
tor James F. Byrnes has directed
selective service to review the draft
status Of all professional athletes
with this end in mind.
Older Men May Be Called.
Effect of the order regarding the
Redskin gridmen and the Washing
ton baseball club was conjectural,
but borderline cases on the two
rosters probably will be reviewed by
local draft boards. 1t is believed
that some athletes above % who are
found acceptable for military duty
will be inducted, for although the
armed forces have concentrated on
the 1926 age bracket for the last
six months, Government officials
have indicated that older men must
be taken in the future.
! Some professional sports leaders
accepted the directive with no show
of alarm or panic, stressing the fact
that trick knees and other charac-
teristic sports ailments do not dis

addition of servicemen on furlough.

captain heaved himself up on
hatch cover so that he could see the
faces ringed around him and he
stood there for while without
speaking, hesitant and cropping for
words.
Then he said, We're going into
action tonight"
A sudden stiffness came over the
harbor and the distant blue hills
and spread across the whole expanse
of sea and sky. The warship itself
seemed to listen.
The captain said, The Army's 60
ing to make landing tonight up
the coast near Rome. Its going to
be rough, plenty rough"
Not a muscle moved among the
men. The heads Of some were low
cred as though in prayer. Some
were staring out to sea and some
had their eyes fixed on the big
broad-shouldered figure of the cap
tain. His fists were clenched; they
looked like weights hanging at his
side.
He said, you were in Sicily and
Cape Empedocle and Salerno, and
so now you know what to expect"
Pledges to Get Men Ashore.
Only moment before he had
read the citations that named three
of the ships officers for courage
and efficiency at those places and
he had pinned Purple Hearts on
five who were wounded there. The
five men were Seamen John Chi

Frankley of Edgemere, N. Y:

Thomas Scida of Brooklyn, N. Y.
The officers were Gunnery Officer

Engineer Paul Scott of Bay Springs,
Miss, and Fire Control Officer
Douglas Perry of La Grange. III.
The captain said, Our job is to
get those soldiers on the beach and,
by God, we're going to get them
there"
1t was a pledge to the Almighty,
not an oath.
They had been in these actions
before and they knew what it meant
to thread your way through mine
field in the dead of night. A shell
from a heavy coast defense gun
would smash the ship like an egg.
There probably would be subma-
