BYRNES BAVO ON
 RAGING BEGINS NEEDEDCLEANUP

Washington, Dec 26-(UPl = Sports officials the nation over to- day awaited word on the status of professional athletes for 1945 and there was grave concern by most that the New Year faced more than a possibility of being virtually spOrtless. ~
 Racing, already casualty by vir- tue of war mobilization Director James F. Byrnes' order on Satur- day that all horse and dog tracks cease operation on Jan. 3, readily agreed to back the directive 100 per cent. Santa Anita at Arcadia, Cal, cancelled it's >55 day meeting which was to have been one of the richest in the history of the sport.
 Help For H0rsemeM
 Tropical Park opened yesterday and planned to continue operation through Jan. ?. The Florida Rac- ing Commission, which governs the Miami track, granted permission for nine instead of eight race cards and track officials said that purses from the extra race would be used to assist horsemen in returning to their homes.
 A record breaking crowd of 14,171 racing fans damned the park yes- terday and poured $716,716 through the mutuel machines, also 8 record and brief indication that the meet will be daily record breaker dur ing it's brief span.
 Rov, o411a,, CrHnrfc TxYoR YaiC.s ed when Byrnes issued directive to Selective Service Director General Lewis B. Hershey to r-examine all professional athletes who have been deferred or discharged from mili- tary servic for physical reasons. Hershey advised Byrnes that pur- suant to the demands, he was order ing all local boards to review the cases immediately.
 Byrnes' letter to the Selective Service director said that it was difficult for the public to under stand" how a large number of men between the ages of IS and 26 could be unfit for military service and yet be able to compet with the great est athletes of the nation in games demanding physical fitness
 Discharged
 The reviews will apply to profess Sional athletes who have been de- ferred because they failed to meet physical requirements for service as well as those discharged from the Army or Navy.
 Professional baseball and football, AL. Aa.a manpower was concerned, would find it difficult to operate if the new orders deprive them of still more personnel.
 All Soprts officials, however, were in complete accord that their sports would back the war effort to the limit and if cessation of activity in professional sports was desired by those running the war the word need only be spoken.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1944-12-26


 ferring to all athletes) have proved to thousands by their great physi- cal feats on the foot ball or base ball field that they are physically fit and as able to perform military service as the eleven million men in uniform"
 This setback to most if not all professional and many amateur sports follows on the feels of ap- peals by government officials to non- essential workers to switch to war jobs. This very drastic course is probably due to the American drive in the Pacific and the German drive in Europe which will probably lengthen the war, and require more men.
 The writer on reliable information would like to wager here and now that major league baseball will not be continued in the spring unless the European war is over or unless it is going very favorably and there is an over abundance of ammunition and war goods. Up to now sports have flourished although not on major scale, but with the ever in- creasing needs for manpower of the armed forces and the production front it looks as though sports will have to play second fiddle for the duration. The new style for the duration will be industrial, service and amateur sports. It seems in- credible, but it's true, let's face the facts, win the war keep the peace and then continue where we left of.

Korro Vs Gonnno Psi Game Tonight

Going into the home stretch of play in the lily Touch Football League. Lancers are still leading. with 10 wins and 1 loss to date fol- lowed by Alpha with wins and l loss. If Alpha can win the next two games, they will be in first place wit hthe Lancers. The Lancers are heavy favorites to win their next game while drawing bye in the last round of play.
 After losing to Alpha last week. Wilby dropped into third place and will probably hold this place and finish out the season with two more wins. Beta who in the last four weeks have been winning consistent ly are now in fourth place and per- haps they will be strong enough to knock the Alpha team out of run ming in the game scheduled next week if they beat them in the game scheduled between thes two clubs.
 Tonight real good battl will rage when Alpha meets Beta at 6:3O.
