DRAFT BOARDS BREAKING UP
 MAJOR TEAMS

New York, Feb. l.->UP)-It was "A" day and "I'' day around the winter baseball circuits yesterday "A" for IA and ''I' for induction.
 Wires to u e front office of the Brooklyn Dodgers spelled double trouble. Fred (Dixie) Walker, otlt- fielder. informed Dodger President Branch Hickey from Birmingham, Alabama, he had been placed in IA.
 Rickey still was puzzling over that one when another wire came in from the same town, informing him that Bobby Bragan, young catcher who also doubled in the infield in 1943, had been placed in the same classification.
 More Bad News
 Later, Rickey learned that Bill Sayles, right-handed pitcher from Portland, Ore, had enlisted in the Army Air Corps and was awaiting call to duty.
 To add to his woes came another communication an Indiana war factory asking for information on Billy Herman. Herman, recent ly reclassified IA seems certain to be lost to the Dodgers.
 The other two New York clubs felt the pinch, too. Dick Bartell, infielder for the New Yrk Giants reported from Alameda, Cal, he had been put in IA. And from Atlanta came word from Spud Chandler, New York, Yankee pitcher, that he takes his pre-induction physical examination today.
 Al Milnar, veteran pitcher for the Cleveland Indians until he was traded to the St. Louis Browns in a mid-season deal last year, has been called for induction on Feb. 25.

New York,-There's a powerful lot of postwar planning going on these adys and the sporting world is doing it's share.
 Los Angeles gets under the wire with first bid for the Olympic Games of 1948, when as and if held, with an option on the 1852 games, just in case.
 Down in Washington, plans are under way to establish a national Sports Hall of Fame and construct a spacious building to house the ex- hibitS.
 Here in New York, one of the Mayors various committees is rassl- ing with fantastic plans for a glor- iouS Fashion Center which would out-center all centers, and include a convention auditorium seating 25,O0.
 Immediately that plans for the latter were announced, the Cauli- flower Industry declared 'in' on the ground floor.
 What 8 great fight club that would makel Why, 1t would compete  with Madison Square Garden.
 What the c. l. really means is that it would compete with Mike Jacobs monopoly on boxing, which he holds oy reason of his strangle-hold on the Garden for his blowdeos. But it's a :inch that Mike would be the one to tie up the proposed convention audi torium for the same purpose, hence there would be no competition with Mike, unless you'd consider him his own competition.
 In the words of the lamented Tex Richards, T never seed anything like It."
 If Old Tedge were alive today, he'd be right in there among the B tycoons who are doing the plan ming. The fact that there's no spec fife provision for any sports in the $88, 600, 900 fantasy wouldn't deter Tex. He loved those box car figures when 1t came to dollars, and you can bet your bottom kopeck he'd sell 'em a bill of goods and have first call on that chimeric convention audi torium.
