Front Office Job 'Hokum' Soys Pilot
By HAOLD CLANCY limited Press Sports Writerl

United Press SpOrtS WrlGerJ Boston, Oct. 17- (UP) = Despite loss of the world Series, Manager Joe Cronin of the Boston Red Sox promised today that he'd be on the field next year directing the teams destiny.
 Talk of his taking a front office post "is a lot of hokum," said Cronin last night as some 300 faithful fans mobbed the somewhat ,chastened club on its return frsn defeat in St. Louis.
 q have no desire to retire as manager now, and If Tom YaWkey is planning such a move he hasn't said anything to me about It,, Cronin said.
 Well Satisfied
 Apparently Owner Yankey had no such idea in mind at the mo- ment.
 "We have no alibis to offer for our refeat," he said. we made mis- takes and hope to profit by them in future World Stries. I feel we'll satisfied with the performances of the Boston players"
 Curiously, the welcome given the beaten warriors was far warmer than that given when the team returned from St louis after the first two games of the seven-game series. ..
 At that time only very small crowd was on hand and their re- ception was something less than lukewarm. Last night 1t was differ ent.
 The crowd mobbed Dom DiMaggio whose double in the eighth inning of the seventh game tied the score and gave the ISox their last chance for a victory that never came.
 Flows the leg, professor?" yelled one fan. ,,
 "A little stiff right now but it'n be okay next season." replied Da- Maggie with grin.
 The crowd surged around Pichers Earl Johnson and Joe Dobson, each of whom was credited with one ser les triumph.
 i So enthusiastic was the welcome that in the pushing crowd MISS Betty Anne Calvin, 15, of Cam. bridge was crushed against an auto mobile parked near the station ane sustained a possibly fractured knee Few of the fans saw slugger Tee Williams had failed to live up t expectations in the fight for th' worlds baseball crown. Sneaked Of It was a lonesome ride back To "the kid" and few of the team mem bers spoke to him. He sat studyint some fishing and hunting book during the long train ride ant sneaked of the train near the iron cars, escaping the notice of tn crowd. Most of the players planned [ busy themselves in cleaning up thel business affairs, then take lon vacation. Williams was going hunt ing. DiMaggio was expected to hea for the west coast.

North Industrial Areas Must Be Defended

CASPER, Wyo., Oct. 4. -(P)- Future attacks against the United States would probably come from the north across the top of the world, Gen. Carl Spaatz, com mander of the army air forces, declared here today.
 General Spaatz conferred with Senator Joseph C. O'Mahoney and representatives of the city, coun- ty, civic organizations and federal agencies in regard to the reactiva- ton of the Casper army air field.
 With almost all industrial areas in the world lying above the 10th parallel, he said any future war will be fought by air power in that area. The shortest distance be- tween any of the industrial terri tories of the U. S., Europe or Asia, is by way of the great circle route.
 ''Therefore," General Spaatz de clared, "The primary defensive strategy to be employed in fu- ture war will be to defend these industrial areas in the north"
