Dolph Camilli Ends Major League Career ■ Sluqger Retires To Ranch tn California i By United Pre**) Tin- man who might have led th- 1 lonal league cellar In through with New York Giants out of the Nat-baxi-bull forever. When Dolph Camilli buried hl* baseball career 1 yesterday, he also miundvd the , death knell for Giant hope* of a late neutron splurge. The New Yorker* are 27 and-a-half game* off the pace, and five-and-one-half game* behind the neventh-place club. Their pitching ha* been mediocre, and their hitting ha* been only fair. Camilli couldn't have done anything about I the Giant hurling, but he certainly could have put some punch In the butt iliac order. Manager Mad (Hi knew that yesterday when he pleaded for over two hour* with the big first baseman But Camilli remained firm In hl* determination to quit the game and retire to hi* ranch at. Laytonville, Calif. And so ends a baseball career which stretch** back to 1926, when Dolph first broke Into the game with a tiny minor league club in Utah. Camilli *pent many year* traveling through the minor*. It wasn't! until 1933 that he lilt the major*. The Chicago Cub* brought him up. | They used him at Drat base In a few games, but the following *eaa-| on he was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies. Dolph got (tetter and better during his four seasons with the Phillies. In his final season at Philadelphia 1937 he baited .339. But the Phillies of that day had a cardinal rule -whenever they developed a etar, they sold him Immediately. And that's how Camilli went to Brooklyn. The high point cf hl* career came In 1941, when be won the most valu able-plsyer award of the National league. Dolph did it without benefit of a high batting average. He hit only .265. But that doesn't tell the whole story, because be also led ths league in iiume rubs and run* batted In. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to any that Camilli largely was responsible for the Dodgem winning the pennant that year. Camilli came close to quitting the game last winter. He didn't want to play for the Dodger* tbla season. He wanted to stay on bia ranch with hl* family. But Branch Rickey flew to Cnlifornla and convinced Camilli that be should play for another year. The trade which sent Dolph to the Giants came like a bombshell a week ago Dolph said Immediate i ly be intended to retire. But manager Ott of the Giant* hoped to the last be conM change Dolph's mind Now Camlnlll Is definitely through and so.

Aug. I—(UP)—The Allie* have Sicily almost In the bag but the president of the Unlte-I Press, Hugh Baillie, think* there’s a lot of hard fighting to be done before We cluse the lid. Atthcugh they've abandoned their best defense position* at Halaula. Baillie say* the German* ntlll have plenty of fight left. Baillie ha* spent several weeks touring the battlefront* and war capitals. He wa* in Sicily, and he report* the Allien appear to be giving Sicily back to the Sicilians as fsst a* we oust the enemy. Baillie also makes the observation that the I' downfall of Mussolini didn't mean much to the Italians In Sicily. He say* Mussolini wa* a myth to mo*t Sicilians, anyway. Their main re- | action seems to be one of wonderment—like a child being told there Isn't any Santa Claus. Baillie was Interested In the reaction of Allied soldiers. He saw them going to Sicily, eager and elcited. He saw them coming back wounded, quiet and drawn. The chief idea of the typical Allied soldier, he say*. Is Just to kill Germans. He doesn't hate them — lust know'* there's a Job to do. like exterminating pest* Tbem<re and the quicker the peats are killed. the quicker the Job is finished That, says Baillie.

Argentine Editor Issues Challenge Fascist Opponent Is Dodging Duel Buenos Aires, Aug 6. —(UP)—A di'inociatii Argentina editor is having difficulty in persuading a pro-fasi-kit <>p|n nent to meet him on the Held of honor. Raul Dumonte Taborda had gone through all of the forinalitiea for the duel with pro Axis editor Santiago l»ia* Vleyra. The touch of old-wi rid chivalry was well publicized It was to be a miniature battle between the liberal and reactionary forces ill Argentina. But editor Taborda apparently made a mistake in letting his opponent pick the dueling Held. For police were waiting for them at the rendezvous to forbid (he light under Argentine law. The police said they had been ’’invited" Io attend. The democratic editcr offered >o fly the entire party to Uruguay, where duelling j* legal. But Benor Santiago Diaz Vleyra doesn't like airplanes—or duels —or aotnethlng. In any event, seconds will meet today In another attempt to settle politics with the sword. The trouble started when three pro-fusclst newspapers charged that Taborda had fled the ccuntry to escape government inveatigation. He promptly asked all editors to put up—with swords—or shut up. Only Vleyra accepted the challenge. But the Axis smpatbiser put on a strictly "new order” version if a duel. When both antagonist* arrived, one of Vlerya’s second* asked lhe police to throw out all "Jewish newspapermen.” This was done, and not too gently. When this ritual was completed, the police stepped in and forbade lhe duel. The pro-Axis editor apparently has great respect for the law. o Hubmarine* as implements of war date back to 1620.
