The great interest in baseball during the past season proved that the men and women of America welcomed the game as a wholesome diversion from the war work and thought. peculiarly American sport will continue to serve as psychological relief for the ultra-busy nation during 1943. Minors Hard Hit

Unquestionably, many of the minor league clubs will be forced to fold for the duration because of a talent scarcity. The minors will be harder hit by service demands than the majors, because the players generally are younger in the circuits where big-time talent is developed. We believe there will be enough players left in the majors—heads of families—to carry on the game, just as long as men will be left in other lines of entertainment or non-essential industries. We see no reason why Bradley should single out baseball as an object of public

wrath when other heads of families —bartenders; for example—will remain out of uniform. A few major league stars make big salaries, but most of them do not. Most of them are not wealthy. Most of them depend upon their pay checks to carry on.

Foe of Team

To Be Chosen Later Today

By LOUIS MILLINER United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 28—The unbeaten, untied Golden Hurricanes of Tulsa university have accepted an Invitation fo play in the Sugar Bowl football game New Year's day, it was announced today. Tulsa’s opponent will be selected later today after the completion of games in which “several teams” are under consideration. It was understood the teams included Boston College, which plays Holy Cross, and both teams in the GeorgiaGeorgia Tech “dream game” at Athens. , Scored 427 Points

Tulsa ended its 10-game schedule with a 40-7 victory over Arkansas on Thanksgiving. The game brought Tulsa’s total points to 427—the largest scored by any team in the nation. None of Tulsa's opponents was able to hold the Golden Hurricane to less than three touchdowns. Tennessee and Alabamg also were mentioned as possible opponents for Tulsa, but President Joe David of the New Orleans Mid-Winter Sports association, . sponsor of the New Year's day classic, refused to comment except to say that Tulsa authorities were “agreeable to any opponent we select.” In rounding out its card, the Sugar Bowl may run smack into the Rose Bowl which also is understood to have the winner of the GeorgiaGeorgia Tech game under consideration.

Dobbs Outstanding

Boston college played Sugar Bowl last year, defeating Tennessee 19-13. On last New Year’s day, Fordham won a 2-0 victory over Missouri. Tulsa’s ace passer and kicker, Glenn Dobbs, is an outstanding candidate for honors when allAmerica selections are made. Through his individual efforts, the Golden Hurricane stands at the top of the nation in pass offense. Tulsa’s coach, Henry Franka, went

Gary Negro Is the Danger

But commissions have- a way of balling things up, and both the New York board and National Boxing association insist upon a tournament dragged out through the elimination of, among others, Stolz of Newark, Mexican Juan Zurita and Cleo Shans of Los Angeles, Willie Joyce of Gary, Chester Rico of the Bronx, Slugger White of Baltimore, Maxie Shapiro of New York, Bob Montgomery of Philadelphia and Joey Peralta of Tamaqua, Pa. Willie Joyce, I might add, is the danger. This Gary Negro, who has confined his activities to around Chicago, has plenty on the ball. But .so has Jack, the Armstrong type, and Larkin.

Times Special NOTRE DAME, Ind, Nov. 28— Notre Dame will knock the lid off

its 20th basketball season under the direction of Coach George E. Keogan here tonight. Ball State, a high scoring Indiana conference team, will provide the competition. The Muncig squad is also opening its season in tonight's game. Charles Butler, slender senior forward from Chicago, will lead the veteran Irish starting team, having been elected to the captaincy late last week. Teamed with him will be Johnny Niemiera, another Chicagoan who scored 137 points for third ranking last year while Butler was taking fourth with 122,

pacifism.

Bivins, a. stubby colored gent from Cleveland. | On the basis that a man who at least tries is more deserving of reward than a man who does nothing, the commissionary judicary imposed the dubious honors on Bivins at the end of ten rounds of futility. This was Bivins’ debut on the hig time and whether the light heavyweight can fight is still a question hereabouts. Due to the elemental i fact that Lee the Lamb was not in Joe Williams any mood to submit to a test. Our shy, demure hero, who had almost twenty pounds the better of it on the scale, was contemptuous of anything verging on violence and it was plain from the start—and it became plainer as the rounds advanced—that he would much prefer to be in his library reading the adventures of the Rover Boys. The sensitive Ferdinand touch was made manifest in several ways, the most common of which was Mr. Savold’s tendency to flick a long left {jab and then rush madly into a clutch, during which periods the urge to execute the graceful steps of a Viennese waltz would overtake him, His performance would have been la comforting revelation to those who charge that prize fighting is a brutal and degrading thing. On the contrary, this was a thing of sublime beauty and if there was a talent scout in the house we are sure the Lamb will presently appear in a ballet company.

‘Refuse to Talk’ We encountered Mr. Jimmy Walker, father of the fight law, as he emerged from the garden. “1 refuse to talk,” snapped Mr. Walker. His morose attitude was that of a doting parent who had suddenly been betrayed by a favorite offspring. . Mr. Mel Ott, the Giants’ popular manager, was at the ringside. “Reminds me of Mungo,” he commented. “A nothing-ball pitcher.” Yet all this is strange in view of the Lamb's background., Up to two or three years ago he was a distinguished barkeeper out in St. Paul and report has it he lived up to all the rugged behaviorisms of this noble group. Even as late as last summer he was known as a mart who would not swoon at the word boo, provided, of course, it was not too harshly uttered. One of his victims was Lou Nova. Just what this makes Nova, looking back on the incident, is not for a charitable soul to say. Incidentally, Mr. Nova is around again. He was introduced from the ring last night. The announcer, with amazing candor, said, “He is back in his old time form.” This merits some sort of prize for subtlety in disparagement.

Could Have Won

The thing that made the Lamb's performance doubly disappointing was that he could have won if he had tried to fight; he had height, reach and weight on his side. Besides which he is not a bad fighter as to equipment. And, considering all the advantages he had, it did not seem that he had much to beat. Bivins is built relatively close to the ground and has. a hard, round

All-Stars Defeat Oshkosh Quintet

CHICAGO, Nov. 28 (U. P.).—The College All-Stars defeated Oshkosh, Wis., 61-55, last night in the annual

game between the college team and the champions of the National Professional Basketball league. . Bob Davies of Seton Hall (N.

Findlay Wallops Baer Field Fliers

FT. WAYNE, Ind. Nov. 28 (U.P.). —Lieut. Sam Ketchman and his aggregation of college and high school basketball stars proved a little too weak for a powerful Findlay college five last night and the Baer Field Fliers fell to a 58-32 defeat in the opening engagement of the season. Findlay jumped into the lead during initial seconds of the game and never was headed, holding a comfortable °28-19 margin at the halftime.

a pretty good record he has been taken—even stopped. Not even his most extravagant’ admirer would ever link him with Joe Louis. Of course, the fight addict takes what he can get these days, which explains the motley array of talent | which parades through the ropes in the Garden these nights. Bivins is probably as good as we have around at the moment. To repeat, he didn’t have much chance to show ’ last night. For the most part he. was shadow boxing. He flashed a stiff left-hand and a business-like right cross. We suppose he's game enough, although in the ninth when the Lamb made one of his rare challenges, Bivins, perhaps { more startled then anything else, got on his bicycle -and did several laps in near-record time. Someone should tell the Clevelander that bicycles are not put to needless use these days.

Got the Bird

By and large, this was what the Emily Post set would call a stinker. We have seen more action at the flea circus than was shown in the first three rounds. It was evident the addicts were similarly unimpressed. Very early in the fight they got together and generously decided to give the young men the bird—which was more than either of them deserved at the time. It took Bivins five full rounds to discover there was no harm in the Lamb, a fact which does not speak well for his perspicacity. Starting the sixth he bulled his way through the Lamb's fragile left jab defense and cracked him with rights and lefts to the head that had jarring effects, and near the close of the round he sank a left deep in the Lamb’s belly, which brought a look of extreme annoyance and disgust to the features of the ring's foremost apostle of peace. This was
