Selective Service Director Arthur

Taking contrasting view from

Of sports only when all other
needs have been filled, Mcnamara
said that Canadian fans could
look forward TO comparatively
full schedule OF events next

THE Canadian people need

from Canadian selectIve service

I'VE take the view that II a

fessional ball he should be al
lowed TO play In the United
States" he said That Is, pro-
yiding OF course. that he is not
eligible for military service.
And II a man Is employed In an

approval OF selective service be-
cause as a sport II does not in

NOT FIT
Most men employed az race

military service" he said. "In
many cases such work Is taken
on during holidays from other
jobs"
Absenteeism was circumVented
by twilight racing at tracks near
war plants, ne pointed out
Throughout the war, people
have suggested that the govern
ment 60 out and spend millions
OF dollars providing recreation
facilities In various towns and
cities across the country" he
said. "It would be foolish. then.

centers like race parks while
