Frank Jackson Is Crack Outfielder

To let a baseball season pass without singing the praises of out fielder Frankie Jackson would be like mentioning the Boston Red Sox without thinking of Dom Di- Maggie. Frank is currently play ing for Holy Rosary. He played with the Invaders early in the sea- son. This quiet, unassuming ball player has played with lot of good clubs in and around Provi- dence. Railing from the South Providence section he started of as a pretty young and capable shortstop in the Grammar School and playground leagues back in the early '30's. I remember when he was a member of the Richard son Park team. Since then he has played with innumerable Negro and white hines, including the BomIbers. I have never seen him loaf in an organized contest. Pos sessed of remarkable speed afoot he is a natural ball hawk, and covers an unusual amount of out field territory. To date he has not made an error. A good hitter, he is a dangerous man once on base, having pilfered many bases. His natural ability and competitive spirit rate him as 'fball-players' ball player"

In Rhode Island Sport Circles
By Al Potter

Providence, R. I. Before a fair-sized crowd at Hope Field last Wednesday, the Providence Invad- CTS edged out Rogers Moran Tav- ern team 6 to 4, behind the hurl- ing of Robbie Blue, who laced a three-bagger to help his own cause.
 In return game with Rogers Morgan team Sunday, the Invad- CTS won 12 to g, but lost the sec ond game of a double header against the Holy Ghost nine of the CYO League, 5 to 1, at Pierce Field, East Providence.
 The Invaders will round out the current season against the follow ing teams: September 1-Boston Wolverines, at Pierce Field; Sep tember 2, St. Francis CYO al Pierce Field; and Narraganseti Pier, (tentative) at Pierce Field September 8, Boston Colored Gi ants, at Boston; September 8, Bos, ton Wolverines, at Boston; Sep. tember IS, Belleville Woolen, al Belleville. Boxing
 At the recent Arcadia bouts, Benny Delgado, 140h of Provi- dence, discarding for the moment his rapier-like left, required only 90 seconds to put, away Oscar St. Pierre, 148, of Fall River, with a short right.
 Football
 With the fading of an all too short summer comes nearer the close of the first postwar baseball season, and King Football ascends the sports throne. Vernon Starks has been putting a squad through limbering-up paces for the past two weeks at Hope Field. The likeable Starks has been an i'm portant factor in the organization of athletic teams in this sector. having coached champion bas- ketball team last winter. All 1nd1- cations point to a successful sea- son for his grid team. Watch this column for more information about his squad.
 Holy Rosary vs Eagles
 It seems that local sports fans are clamoring for the long-awaited contest between the Holy Rosary and Eagle Baseball teams. Botf hines have already met the Invad- CTS, and it would be interesting te see how these aggregations shape up against each other.
 According to their management the Holy Rosary has been trying for some time to bring about the contest, realizing the attraction It would be a natural"

TRUMAN REMAINlNC|
MUM OVER CABINET

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-U.D-
President Truman kept the capital
guessing today about his choice OF
new secretary of interior but
speculation was rapidly narrowing
down to three candidates.
Informed sources gave top bill
ing to Supreme Court Justice Will
liam o. Douglas and Sen. Joseph
c. O'Mahoney, D., Wyo.,. as most
likely successors to Harold L..
Ickes. Oscar L: Chapman, acting
interior secretary, was regarded
a close third.
Do Decision
These sources said MIR. Truman
had made no final decision up to
late yesterday and conceded he
might come up with an outsider.
Douglas stock took a jump yes
terday when he visited the White
House and also conferred briefly
with Ickes. Mr.. Truman reported.
ly wants a western Liberal for the
job and Douglas, who is from Walla
Wala, Wash, would fill the bill.
Feels Secure
OMahoney, it was said. feels
secure Of his future in the senate
and might be unwilling to give it
up for a comparatively uncertain
term in the cabinet. Even if ne
should be reelected to the senate
upon completion Of the job as Sec
rotary, ne would lose his seniority
OF more than II years service.
Douglas was reported the favor
lite candidate of Postmaster Cen
eral Robert E. Hannegan, who as
Democratic National committee
chairman has great influence with
the president.
Wants Liberal
Eannegan, these sources said,
wants a man of Dougles' liberal
stamp to succeed Ickes in the
belief it would help keep New Deal
elements OF the Democratic party
more solidly in line the 194S
presidential campaign approaches.

Army attempt to meet criticism of
the caste system with an investiga-
ton by some of the critics was Gen.
Eisenhower's idea. He cleared 1t
with the White House-which points
out it is still waiting for the Navy
to make good on its declaration of
intent to follow suit.
The Army is also lucky in being
without immediate personnel trou-
bles. Secretary Patterson, who quit
the Federal bench to serve in Wash
ington and relinquished his claim on
q Supreme Court vacancy to take
the postwar raps, has no job he
pines to return to. His most prac-
teal course is to wait for a desirable
Judicial vacancy to turn up to which
he can lay just claim. His heir ap-
parent, w. Stuart Symington mis-
souri,, naturally, was easily con-
frmed as Assistant Secretary of Air

Agree in Principle.
But the President sees eye to eye
with the Army on uniflcation, and,
conscious of his world role as maker
of American foreign policy, he is
responsive to general staff pleas that
they must have more manpower II
they are to fulfill American COM
mitments abroad This is, of course,
break for the Army. But in other
respects the Army appears to be
going out of its way to do the CO.
operating and also to WOO public
opinion and so make the President s
tasks easier.
The Navy, restless under present
delays, has attempted to jam its
