Charley Grimm, who will mas
termind the underdog Nationals,
apparently had not decided which
members of his somewhat undis.
ti-guished staff would work the
second and third three-inning
stints, but most of the obser' ers
were delegating Rip Sewell OF
Pittsburgh and HOWE Pollet of the
St. Louis Cardinals to continue the
heroic task of trying to keep the
poWer-laden American league line
up quiescent.
Heroic appeared to be the word,
for the starting lineup given at
by O'Neill was one calculated to
make any pitcher quail, even
though such illustrious sluggers as
Joe DiMaggio and Hank Green
berg were missing from the list
Joe renewed an old knee injury
yesterday, while Hank, for some
reason not clear to anybody, was
not chosen for the American
league All-Star squad.
Four members Of the fabulous
Red Sox, Boston's own pride and
joy, we're packed within the first
five places in O'NeilIs batting
order. Dominick DiMaggio in
c~enterfield will lead off the awe
some array, followed by shortstop
Johnny Pesky and Ted Williams,
whose homerun bat has done much
to keep the Yankees in sight Of
the Red Sox, was honored with the
fourth, or cleanup spot, but an
other Sox star, second baseman
Bobby Doerr, was assigned fifth
place.
Three St. Louis Cardinals were
tapped by Grimm for his starting
lineup Red Schoendienst at
second, Whitley Kurowski at third
and Marty Marion at short-while
only one member of the leaNe
leading Brooklyn Dodgers, the
phenomenal Dixie Walker, was
chosen.
Ironically, the sixth place New
York Giants gained two places in
the National league lineup. Walk
er Cooper, the SITS, 900 number,
was chosen to catch Passeau, and
Johnny Mize, the leagues leading
homerun nocker, will start on first.
While the National league club
will be no SLOUGH and potentially
packs a good wallop at the plate,
it simply does not stack up with
the Americans on paper, either in
pitching or batting, and there is no
reason to doubt that the 3-to-1 odds
being quoted against the senior
circuit are just about right. Most
of the crowd expected to be packed
the park when play begins at
(EDT) Tuesday will be yell
ing for the American leaguers. AS
this will be a home game for the
league, the Nationals will
be first at bat.
The disparity in pitching between
the two clubs appears to be more
glaring than in the batting. The
trio named to fire them across for
the Americans. Teller, Newhouser
and Chandler, have won Is, 16 and
games, respectively, while los
only a dozen among them. The
veteran Passeau, though possibly
the best choice Grimm could have
made to start, has won only eight
while losing 4.
1t is a sad commentary on the
class of National league hurting

OFFICIALS WANT DRAFT
TO CONTINUE FOR GUARD

Washington-The National De-
Tense Committee of the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States
has called for extension Of the
Selective Service Act amid dis
closures that the army plans a
postwar National Guard of more
than 425,O0O men.
The committee said that extern
sion of the act beyond its May Is
expiration date is necessary "as
safeguard against failure to OBJ
tain sufficient service personnel
through voluntary enlistment"
1t said the army's recruitment
program sis already inadequate
to meet the needs"
Army plans for the postwar
National Guard were revealed at
a closed meeting of a military af-
fairs subcommittee, which is
studying revisions of the National
Defense Act. Members reported
that the army hopes to get its
strength up to about 100000 men
