Briggs CIarifiers Cool Off
Bindoco SoftbaIIers

The Bindoco Oilers, hot-streak
softball stars of Ballston Stadium,
were cooled off considerably today
after taking 5-to-1 lacing at the
hands of Briggs CHARTERS in the
Virginia bowl last night. Jimmy
George, hefty first sacker, account

smashed in two in the first frame
with a double and followed with a
single in the second to bring in the
final tally. Joe Martz, Bindoco
twirler. settled down after a rough
start and held the CHARTERS hitless
after the second, but his teammates

No Manpower Puzzle
Al Ohio State as los
Seek Gridiron Jobs
BY the Associated Press.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 49,
Carroll Widdoes, acting head foot
ball coach at Ohio State University
has brand-new version of the war
time manpower problem-he has so
many players he doesn't know what
to do.
At least that was the situation
yesterday when los boys showed up
in answer for the first call for sum-
mer practice.
And although this is Widdoes
first year as head coach of col
lege team, he showed an immediate
knowledge of how to look on the
dark side of the picture.
Despite obvious pleasure at the
huge turnout, Widdoes, who took
over at Ohio State when Coach
Paul E. Brown went to the Navy
quickly doused his smile in bit of
gloom.
In the first place, he related, a
great majority of the los are IT.
year-old freshmen, wholly lacking
in collegiate experience. His next
worry was over the size of the squad
fear that he and his assistants
might not be able to do a thor
oughly complete job separating the
outstanding prospects from the
mine run in two weeks of summer
drills.
Then he pointed out that many
of the boys will be 18 this summer
and may be called for military
service before fall.
The new Buck coach admitted
however, that the candidates looked
better than did the 1943 squad
And the turnout was twice what
Widdoes expected and double that
of year ago. The roster included
10 members of the 1943 squad.
The Bucks, just as last year, will
be forced to rely entirely on under
age boys and 4-Fs, since there are no
eligible marine or Navy trainees at
Ohio State. Last years team won
only three of nine games.

The Board of Public Works has
waived its prior statutory right to
purchase the 100000 Kanawha
County bond issue voted for con-
struction of the Coonskin Ridge
Airport near Charleston.
officials explained that it was not
feasible to take up the bonds be-
cause of the States heavy invest
ments in Government issues, par
ticularly during the recent Fourth
War Loan campaign.
