AIdrich, Bogorus Appear Likely
To oReturn to Redskins Soon

The Redskins third day of pre-
season practice, toughest of the
grind, found them in high spirits
with the war over and prospects
bright for adding one or two pre-
war veterans to the roster.
Club officials today had no pre-
dictions to make as to which play
ers might rejoin the club early
enough to play this season, but
it was rumored that KY Aldrich, col
orful center of the 1912 champion
ship team, was on his way back.
Aldrich, with his experience and
pepper would be valuable addi-
ton to the squad and with Ernie
Barber and Jim Watson alternat-
ing in that spot with him the Red
skins would be we'll fortified in that
position.
Hopes were high, too, that Steve
Bagarus, wing-footed halfback who
played several exhibition games with
the team last year while on fur
Tough from the Army, would return.
Bagarus' loss meant the difference
between the Eastern title and third
place in "A and this year could
send the Skins into the champion
ship scramble with an edge on their
rivals.

Baseball Chieffains,
Meeting Here, Think
Biz Series Assured
By LEWIS r. ATCHISON.

Resumption of the Olympic games
and fight between Heavyweight
Champion Joe Lewis and Billy Conn
top sports ambitious postwar plans.
Peace signalled the beginning Of
an era that every one confidently
expects to outsrrip anything the
sports world has seen in both spec
tator appeal and box-offlce figures.
Baseball leaders, here for their
first joint session with Commits
sioner Happy Chandler since he
assumed Office, saw no reason why
the World Series could not be
played, but first on the agenda
were plans for reviving defunct
minor leagues and for assisting in
the organization of new circuits.
Ford Frick and Will Harridge,
National and American League
presidents, respectively; william G.
Bramham, high priest OF the minors,
and officials of eight major league
teams and Representatives of six
minor leagues were here for the
session.
Rail jam to Continue.
While ODT Director j. Monroe
johnson declared railroad travel
facilities would be jammed until
next summer he indicated it was
possible that the World Series would
be played and possible that post
season bowl football games might
be okayed.
Racing, too, looked optimistically
to the near future, but whether the
ban on shipment of horses by rail
would be lifted soon enough to hold
some major events was conjectural
A meeting between the outstanding
fillies. Busher and Gallorette, was
one item racing officials hoped to
stage. A fun winter schedule of
racing is regarded as certainty.
Pro footballs nonchampionship
schedule of 13 games probably will
be played. Grid leaders already had
worked out plan for getting them
in even if the transportation pinch
continues.
Olympics in 194S Assured.
Olympic games in 1913 are al
most foregone conclusion. Avery
Brundage, president of the American
Olympic Association, is en- route to
London for meeting of the Inter-
national Olympic Committee and is
reported to be taking with him bids
of several United States cities, in
Guiding Philadelphia, Chicago and
Los Angeles, for the games. The
last world meet was held in Berlin
in 1886.
Peace day also makes possible the
resumption of international compe-
tition in golf, yachting, polo and
other sports. but it will be some
time before definite plans are an
nounced.
Meanwhile, no holiday in sports
was anticipated unless President
Truman proclainas a day of prayer
throughout the Nation. Sports are
so closely identified with holidays as
to be considered a necessary part of
any celebration.

Tigers, Cubs Reaching
For Flags in Series
Starting Today
BY JACK HAND.

Associated Press Sports Writsf.
Chicago and Detroit take dead aim
on a slice Of World Series dough to-
day as the two league leaders enter
important series with the 1945 fall
classic virtually assured by the Jap
surrender.
The Cubs and Tigers face high
hurdles in their flag drives. Among
the unpredictable factors is the
amount of help to be expected from
returning servicemen.
Just as the return of Hank Green
berg to Detroit and Buddy Lewis tx
Washington have been vital factors
in the American League chase, the
discharge OF a Bobby Feller, a Joe
Di Maggie or a Joe Gordon could
upset the applicant.
The Cubs may face some real
trouble in Brooklyn where the St.
Louis Cardinals just took three out
of four in bitterly fought series.
After dropping the final in Phila-
delphia last night, 2-l, the Bruins
lead had shrunk to 5h games with
visits to Ebbets Field and the Polo
Grounds just ahead. Four games
with the Brooks while the Cards are
engaging the Phils four times may
tell the story whether Chicago is
going to walk in or have to fight it
out down to the wire.
Prim Loses our-Hitter.
Andy Seminick's fifth inning
home run coupled with another ef-
fective pitching job by Oscar Judd,
the Boston Red Sox castoff, enabled
the Phils to down Chicago. Ray
Prim's four-hitter resulted only in
his fifth setback.
st. Louis picked up full game on
Charley (The Banjo) Grimm and
his happy gang but had to go right
down to the final out to trim Brook
lyn, 81, on Whitley Kurowski,s
ninth-inning round tripper. Red
bird Harry Brecheen and Ralph
Branca of the Brooks pitched in and
out of trouble all afternoon because
of wildness although the Cards had
only three hits and the Dodgers but
five.
Pittsburgh snapped out of it to
beat Boston in both ends Of q
double-header, rs and GO behind
Fritz Ostermueller and Walter Beck.
1t was third straight success for
Ostermuller since his Army dis
charge and third in a row for
Beck since he was picked up from
Cincinanti.
Giants Rookie Wins in Debut.
Salvatore Maglie, rookie right
handler, broke into the big show the
right way by hurting the New York
Giants to So victory over Gin
cinnati. 1t was the Reds 18th sue
cessive loss.
Rain washed out the Detroit New
York game in the first inning, but
the Tigers gained ground.
Jim Bagby Of Cleveland shut out
Boston, 80, with three hits with
the help of homers by Mickey Rocco
and Dutch Meyer. The Indians lost
the services of Manager Lou Boud-
reau for an indefinite period when
he suffered possible ankle fracture
in spill with Dolph Camilli at
second base.
The Philadelphia at Chicago
contest was postponed because Of

DETROIT, Aug. 15.-Os Bluege's
main worry as he looked to the
four-game series with the leading
Detroit Tigers his Mats were to open
this afternoon was over the oppo-
sition's southpaw pitching. Any
thought Of Hal Newhouser or stubby
Overmire made the Washington
manager squirm.
The Mats ran into left-hand mis-
cry yesterday as they lost the final
of the series with the Browns In
st. Louis, 5 to 4, to drop the set,
two games to three, and fall three
and a half games of the pace
setting Tigers. They knocked out
right-handed Nelson Potter, but
they were curbed easily by left
handed Weldon West.
Portside pitchers have made the
Mats look foolish at bat. Thornton
Lee bowled them over In Chicago
and so did johnny johnson after
Bill Dietrich had been beaten. In
st. Louis they were stopped cold by
Earl Jones after pasting the right
handed Tex Shirley for a win, then
AL Hollingsworth really took them
over the jumps.
Cliff in Wicked Slump.
When the Mats attack against
righthanders began to bog down,
Bluege got results by shufning his
batting order. But elimination of
Hills Layne and George Binks from
the lineup to get such righthanded
swingers as Harlond Gift and Joe
Zardon or Howard Mcfarland
against southpaw slabmen reduced
the Mats punch.
In seven games in the west this
trip, the longtime slumping Cliff
has made but five hits for an aver
age of .179. What is worse, Cliff
has struck out six times with two or
more mates on base. Zardon has
made four hits in as many games
and Mcfarland has made one hit
in four times up. But Zardon has
f1elded atrociously and Mcfarland
is somewhat slow.
Surprise of the trip thus far is
Layne. Little. more than bench

pitcher was ordered to the warmup
slab until the knuckleballer hurled
wide one to Moore after filling the
sacks. Then came the single and
the double.
Holborow yielded a run In the

Schulte's single did it. That was
the payoff for the Browns, for the
Mats could count only once In their
