LIKE LOVING CUP

At last it came. Boy, you should
see it. 1t is an exact duplicate OF
the regular stove, except that this
one is all handmade and chromium
plated and has my name engraved
on it, like a loving cup.
One of the correspondents said,
You can't light that; it's too
pretty
An army colonel said, They
should have sent a fireplace and a
mantel alCng for you to exhibit it
on"
For days there was a line of SOL
diers and pondentS at my tent
wanting to see the stove. Twice we
got ready to light it while photog-
raphers took pictures, but at the
last minute we couldn't bear to, and
put it away. The boys all kidded me
and said they bet l never would
light it.

Necessity finally drove me to it.
That was in Paris. had given my
old stove to a friend, thinking
wouldn't need one any more. But
the eating situation in Paris was
drastic at first. and we had only
the rations VIC brought with us in
diVidually.
So at last I had to break down
and light my stCve in a hotel room
in Paris. Some of the boys had
oked and said it was so beautiful
it probably wouldn't work. But it
did. 1t practically melted the hotel
walls doWr.
So to all of you who had hand
in the stove my thanks and graft

to be careful about admiring in

But Tigers Ponder
Possible Loss of
OutfieIder Wakefield

CLEVELAND, Sept. t5-tP)
- The Detroit Tigers, still
breathing on the neckS of the
league leading New Yory Yank-
eeS from their second place
notch a half game behind, made
their last road trip of the sea-
son today to meet the Cleveland
Indians here in a pair Of double
headers.
Manager Steve O'Neill named
his two Tiger pitching aces to
square off against the tribe to-
night in a twilight-night twin
bill, but didn't specify whether
Dizzy Trout or Hal NeWhouser
would work first. Each has won
"a games for Detroit this season.
ONeill, throwing his best at
the Indians nominated Trout and
NeWhouser for a good reason.
With the teams idle Saturday,
both the top Tiger FINGERS
would be ready TO work in re-
lief if needed in Sundays
doubleheader which is Detroit's
last appearance here this year.
Frank (Stubby) Overmire and
Rufus Gentry will be the Tiger
starters Sunday.
Lefthander AL Smith was
Cleveland's choice TO pitch one
of today's pair, with either Mel
Harder, Steve Gromek or Jim
Bagby working the other.
The Tigers today pondered
news that may deprive them of
their key sparkplug, outfielder
Dick Wakefield, before the
American league pennant fight
is settled. Wakefield said last
night that he had been notified
by his Chicago draft board that
he has passed his army physical
examination and is subject TO
call at any time.
Wakefield, currently hitting
at better than a 800 clip, said
however, that he didn't expect
to be called for a month, which
he said was the usual period be-
tween the time Of receiving such
notice and actual induction.
Wakefield was discharged
from the Navy in July after
several months Of cadet course
at Iowa preflight. He applied for
a Navy commission but remain
ed subject TO the draft.

of the field forced two success
sive postponements of a schedul-
ed important Ahletic-Yankee
game, resulting in a transfer to
New York to be part of a Sun
day doubleheader.
If Sundays games hit bad
weather, they will be taken off
the books. At this stage, one
game less than the regular l54
might make the percentage
point difference that could win
or lose the flag.
Although the Philadelphia
game probably would not have
been played because of the hur-
ricane, even if no football game
had been held, President Ed.
Barrow of the Yanks was pre-
pared to ask the Majors for leg
iSlation at the December meet
ingS, forbidding any team from
renting its park for football be-
fore the close of its home sea-
son.
Further conflict with football
might arise if Detroit won the
championship as the first World
Series game at Briggs Stadium
would be held Sunday, Oct. 8,
when the Brooklyn Tigers and
the Lions are slated to open the
Detroit home season in the Ma
tional grid league.
Detroit had a chance TO move
out front for the first time to-
night with Hal NeWhouser and
Dizzy Trout slated to 60 against
Cleveland in a twilight-night
doubleheader while New York
was idle. st. Louis was due to
play Chicago and Boston was at

N. Y. MutuaIs
SET Record
Near 400 Million
Seasons Betting

NEW YORK, Sept. Is Up
New York States race crowds
are showering down their dol
lars in the pari mutuel plants.
Up to today, through 1877 days
of New York racing, a total of
1888, 633, 295 has found its way
through the wagering windows,
and there are SO days to 60. Last
years To-day record was $284,-
635, III. If bettors continue their
average of S2,l06,812 per day
for the remainder of this season
they'll hit over S400,000,00O. In
1910 New Workers bet S1O3,-
70O,926.
Of the 288 millions already
wagered, $28,863, 1929 didn't 60
back to the bettors, along with
an unestimated sum represented
by the "breakage"- the odd
pennies which the State and
track split on a 60-40 basis.
The % million figure is the
10 per cent of the bets which
the State and Track divide on
the same 60-40 plan. Last year
the State profited by about Sl9,-
100000 from racing, but this
years State take" is expected
TO hit at least $26,OO0,0O0 -
figure which would exceed the
revenue derived by all the states
from raving in 1912, and almost
five millions more than all the
states profited in l941.
In 1941, for 1912 racing days,
S526,277,335 was Wagered.- In
1912 the number Of days fell off
to 1885, but the bets scared TO
1858, 579, 895. Last year, for only
1913 racing days, the bettors
poured in $710,779,432 over the
country.
And with New York contrib
uting $500, 100000 this year,
perhaps racing is in for its first
billion dollar season.

verines and their 1914 football
opener against Iowa preflight
here Saturday, Coach o. H.
(FritL) Crisler practically was
settled on a starting Michigan
lineup but a d d ID quickly,
"There'll be plenty of shifting
before the game is over"
Crisler said today ne probably
would stick TO a theory that
experience counts heaviest" by
naming as Michigan's starting
ends letterman Art Renner of
Sturgis and 1913 reserve,
Bruce Bruce Hilkene from In
dinapolis. T h at combination
1uld leave on the bench, tenn
poraril.', the standout freshman
Wingman Dick Rifenburg of
Saginaw, who is certain to see
action early if he doesn't start.
Elsewhere in in the line Girls

mods toClem Bauman of Dayton,
Ohio, a letterman, and Art Lee
Roux Of Muskegon Heights, a
1913 reserve, at the I kleS;
newcomers George Burg of Win
netka, H., and Quentin Sickels
of Benton Harbor at the guard
jobs, and John Lintol, Detroit
freshman, at center. Lintol APP
parently has edged out Letter
man Harold Watts of Birming-
ham for first call at the snapper
back assignment.
Starting Michigan backs, ac-
cording to CriSler, probably will
be Joe Ponsetto of Flint, quar-
terback; Bob Nussbaumer of
Oak Park, H., and Ralph Chubb
Of Ann Arbor, halfbacks, and
Capt. Bob Wiese of jamestown,
n. D., fullback.
Availability of two seasoned

tional recruits left Crisler plenty
of leeWay to experiment in the
Michigan backfield. The addi-
tional lettermen, fullback Don

also at center, and quarterback
Jim Aliber, stood ready to
spell the starters, along with
newcomers Gene Derricotte of
