3 Coes First

For Defense

Better Get Your Yacht Fixed Very Soon

By PETER EDSON Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, July 10.— This matter of shortages is beginning to . trickle down. At first, the big orders - On priorities seemed to affect nothing more petite than a box car but "substitutes are beginning to appear ; for other things and there will - be more of the same as time goes on. Pretty soon you won't recognize yourself. Take sporting goods. They seem about as far removed from defense materials as

anything you|§

might mention, and therefore one of the least Eason likely to be af- ~ fected. The very remoteness of sporting goods from defense materials, however, makes them among the first things where substitutions must be made. Sporting goods are classified as luxuries in war time and if any savings can be made in consumption of aluminum, steel, leather, rubber and brass, the sporting element

will be the first to feel the pinch.}

If the rings on your ski poles are . made of aluminum, hang onto them for they are definitely pre-war. In * the future these rings will be made out of rattan. Football coaching will require an * entirely new school of Pop Warners, for leather helmets and shoulder ‘pads are out. They’ll be made of ~ fibre and that will naturally alter the tactics of the double wing back Even the insoles on athletic shoes will be fiber in- .. stead of leather. Pigskins will still : he pigskins for awhile but they will i be inflated by pumps of steel, in- ‘ stead of brass. : Even your yacht will have to be a little less fancy. Boat whistles are tc be made of plastic instead of brass. The flagpole sockets, bow and stern handles will be malleable fron instead of brass. The place

To Hate the Bums Again |

Ferguson Has Only a

Flatbush as He Dares Tell All

By HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, July 10.—Yours truly is such a fearless fellow that he once passed a kind remark about the Republican Party while visiting in Mississippi and, on another rash occasion, told his wife that her new hat wasn’t worth the $2.89 she paid for it and why didn’t she go right down town and get her dough back.

But if you would like to see yours truly perform an even more daring feat, stick around while I tell the

putting the whammy on the chances

to win the National League pennant. After doing that I shall apply for

The reason the fans are jinxing

ment in the salons of Flatbush these days is not whether the Bums

intimidated by unloading raspberries at least twice during every game. The customers really had the Bums under control in those days as witness the true story of the Brooklyn fan who walked into a restaurant and asked: “How did those lousy bums do today?” A man turned and said politely: “We won, 6 to 2.” It was pitcher Kirby Higbe speaking, but the fan didn’t even thank him. Give those Bums an inch and they'll take a mile was the attitude in the good old days.

Rain, Rain Go Away Come On Hub’s Day

NEW YORK, July 10 (NEA).— Some pitchers work best when it'is warm, others when it is cool, but Carl Hubbell usually can be counted on for a winning chore in rain.

CHICAGO, July 10—Generally the cry for a coach’s scalp comes from the alumni—old grads who demand a winner. But the move against Robert C. Zuppke, famous strategist of Illinois, comes from within, as was the case when it started in 1938. Then the athletic board, consisting of four faculty and three alumni members, asked Bob Zuppke for his resignation, and he gave it. He was to get $6000 a year until he was 65, $4000 a year for life thereafter. The matter would have ended there had not the board of trustees stuck with Zuppke. This board comprises alumni for the most part, a good many of them former football players under Zup. It refused to let the Old Man step out. It must have taken the vote of Athletic Director Wendell S. Wilson, as a faculty member of the board, to swing a majority in favor of asking Zup’s resignation three years ago. Last month, so the story goes, Weenie Wilson introduced a resolution calling: on the veteran drillmaster for ‘his resignation. The motion carried, four to three, Wilson voting for: it, of course, the alumni voting against it. It was at this time that one of the alumni introduced a motion calling on Wilson for his resignation.
