i Attention long-hairs! How would
lyou like to buy one of the finest
lcollections Of scores ever gathered
together in one place? That's the
trouble, the place is so large and
the scores so valuable that the
proud owner wants to get the whole
load off his mind so he won't have
a thing to worry about but playing
the drums. The man is Bill Strick-
land and If you're interested, you
can find him any night at the Lotus.
The value of Bills collection has
been estimated to be around $4,000.
This isn't surprising as it contains
old German and French scores
that are now completely out of
print. However, If you decide to buy
1t Bill wants you to know that you'll
be minus one piece. After Pearl
Harbor, he tore up the Japanese
Triumphal March.
Ralph Hawkins makes the Specta-
tor jealous with that even tan
and you'll never guess how he got
it, unless you happen to remember
back in 1912 when the orchestra
leader and his Cross Roads musi-
clans won the Softball Champion
ship in the musicians night club
league. Ralph gets as excited over
softbau as over the hottest jazz ar
rangement this side of the District
line.

Ralph on this challenge please let

at the scene of the crime.

Jumping Joe Savoldi, the dish nosed wrestler, was a great full back on Knute Rockne's last team at Notre Dame, but he never was the most brilliant thinker in the game. Consequently when Joe's signal was called, Quarterback Frank Carideo would just hand him the ball and let him rattle through the line with it. When someone else carried, Joe was often a liability.
 Once Carideo called for a par ticularly intricate play in the hud- dle. "What do I do on this one? ?" asked the puzzled Savoldi. "Noth- ing," said Frank. "Just keep out of my way"

Urges Sports for Vet Rehabilitation

As a nation we must prepare to accept back into civilian life the injured heroes of this war. We must not assume they are perma- nent cripples. Given a full oppor- tunity, many of these men may overcome their physical shortcom- ings and develop into star athletes.
 Pete Gray's case (he's the one armed star player of the Memphis ."Chicks") may serve as an object lesson. He's the best base-runner in the Southern loop; he's one of the best hitters; he's a fine fielder and even good thrower. To date, the Chick center gardener has blasted out the surprising total of five home runs. Where there's will, there's way.-Keesler Field, Miss. News

Only then did the winners manage to pull away to safe lead. Kellett, playing center for the trainees, and Harter, left forward for the Instructors, scored eight points apiece to lead in that department.

Blue Plate Special

Two-ton Tony Galento, the cheerful little beerful from East Orange, N. J., has started another comeback in the ring. He recently fattened someone called Jack Suck in the 3rd round of late bout on smoker card in Wichita, Kan. Two-ton's last comeback came to disagreeable end two years ago when an East Orange cop beat a tattoo on his head with a night stick during a brawl in front of the Galento suds shop on Day street, East Orange. "Fat Ernie" Roeber, 82, who wrestled in the '90s, died recently in his home in New York. His chief claim to fame was that he threw the Ter rible Turk in the only wrestling match ever held at the Metropoli- tan Opera House. 4. Eighty per cent of the "Death Dealers" a squadron of pilots of the End Marine Air Wing based in the Pa cific, were active in IA different types of sports before they went to war, according to dispatch from Sgt. Bill Goodrich, a Marine combat correspondent. Fifteen of the men were football and basket ball players in both high school and college. Don Whitmire, Navy tackle, and Les Horvath, Ohio State back and Heisman Tro- phy winner, were unanimous choices on 12 All-American foot ball teams. Players named to this All-American "consensus" team are Phil Tinsley, Georgia Tech, and Jack Dugger, Ohio State, ends; Whitmire and John Ferraro, USC, tackles; Ben Chase, Navy, and Joe Stanowicz, Army, guards; Jack Travener, Indiana, center; and Hor- vath, Bob Jenkins, Navy, and Glenn Davis and Dock Blanchard, Army, backs.
 In pro football, top individual
 
 honors of the year were won by Don Hutson, aging antelope of the Green Bay Packers; Bill Paschal, of the New York Giants, and Flat Foot Frankie Sinkwich, of Detroit. Hutson won the pass-snatching and scoring championship, as usual. Paschal took the ground-gaining title for the End straight year, and Sinkwich, best all-around player of the year, was End in scoring, 3rd in ground-gaining, 4th in passing and 4th in kicking. LCdr. Ben- ny Leonard, ex-lightweight champ, was voted the man "whose conduct has reflected greatest credit on the sport' by the New York Boxing Writers recently. !

SiSgt. Henry J. "Hank" Holz- heimer, IT,, may be an excellent in- structor in defense against chemi cal warfare and an outstanding member of the Base Chemical Warfare Section, but he is probab- ly better known to Bradley G.I.'s as the "Hankus- -Pankus" of "The Battle of Bradley" Sgt. Holzhei- mer's comedy, as part of the "Luddy Brothers and Holzheimer Trio," will long be chuckled over by those who saw the show.
 "Hank" was born in Perth Am boy, New Jersey, on 15 March 1919, while all good citizens were stand ing in line waiting to pay their in- come taxes. Hank claims that his fathers big regret was that he waited too long and was too little, thus no exemption for his Pops 1919 tax returns. After completing elementary school he attended St. Mary's High School in Perth Am boy where his pet subject was chemistry and his favorite sports basketball and football. For diver sion he participated in amateur theatricals and (don't tell soulD had dates with girls. Following graduation from high school, he was employed by the American Smelling and Refining Co.,, in Perth Amboy where he eventually reached the position of chemists assistant.
 Sgt. Holzheimer enlisted in the army on January 1942 in New York City and, after being process ed at Camp Upton was assigned to the First Chemical Company, at
