Brooklyn Pilot Rejected for Bad Ear Drum
NEW YORK, March 1 (U. P.).— Manager Leo Durocher of the Brooklyn Dodgers was rejected for military service today because of perforated ear-drum. His rejection came as a surprise for physicians av Mayo Brothers clinic a month ago put Durocher through the usual army physical test and pronounced him in perfect
condition, Durocher said the ear had not
last 20 years although sometimes he got “a temporary ringing when batting or surf bathing.” As the fiery Dodger pilot left his Brooklyn draft board headquarters at 7 a. m. today to go to the Grand Central Palace induction center he was certain he would be accepted. He said he had planned to take the usual seven-day furlough and would ask for army service if given a preference.
Recommended Herman
He was chosen to lead 160 inductees from Brooklyn to the cen-
ter and stood in line waiting for
his physical examination. He joked at the draft board headquarters and revealed that during his conference with Branch Rickey, general manager of the Dodgers yesterday, he had recommended Billy Herman, veteran second baseman, as his successor if inducted. Had he been accepted he would have been the first major league
'|manager to enter the armed services.
In announcing Durocher’s rejection, the army did not reveal the exact reason, but other sources disclosed that it was because of the ear perforation.
Practiced ‘Yes, Sir’
Durocher said that between 4 and 6 a. m. today he received a “dozen or so” telephone calls from friends who wanted to make sure that he would reach his draft board headquarters on time. Offered a lift to the induction center, Durocher refused, saying: “Hell, no. I'm just one of the boys now and I have to see that they all get where they are to go.” He said he had practiced two words since his call for the final examination. became imminent— “Yes, sir.” Just before he entered the induction center, a cabbie drove up and shouted, “Good luck, Lippy,” but accompanied his greeting with ga bronx cheer.
His Fifth Season
“Just another Giant fan,” Durocher laughed. To the reporters he swung around and shouted, “So long, boys, I'll see you in the army.” Durocher, who will be 38 on July 27, had passed his preliminary examination in St. Louis several weeks ago. He is married, but his wife is independent financially. Although Durocher’s draft status was uncertain, Rickey signed him to manage the Dodgers last Novem-= ber a few days after he succeeded

Veteran Player
Wins Bat Title
DURHAM, N. C., March 1 (U. P.). —Jimmy Gruzdis, manager of the
Thomasville club of the North Carolina State league won organized baseball's 1942 batting championship, a compilation of the league leaders from official averages disclosed. : Gruzdis batted ‘418, the only player in organized baseball who finished in the .400 division, the press bureau of the national Association of Baseball leagues reported. |p He will be awarded, some time during the 1943 season, the annual Louisville Slugger trophy, presented each year since 1934 to the minor league player with the highest batting average. A veteran infielder and outfielder, ruzdis has been in baseball since 1933.
Cards to Giants
NEW YORK, March 1 (U, P.).— The New York Gignts announced they had signed Frank Rickey, brother of Branch Rickey, as a scout. Frank had been with the St. Louis Cardinal organization and was credited with bringing up such stars as Johnny Mize, Enos Slaughter, Ernie White, Jimmy Brown and Martin Marion.

Hoosier Teams Near End of Hard Campaign
By UNITED PRESS A scanty card of five games comprises the state college basketball menu this week, as Hoosier teams drew near the end of a long, hard campaign, Headlining the week’s slate is the Indiana-Purdue rivalry battle and the college conference game
Joseph’s tonight. With Wabash already enthroned as new conference
champion, tonight's contest can affect only the relative standings of State’s Teachers and St. Joe’s Pumas. Could Take 13th
A victory for the Sycamores could give them a fourth-place tie with Valparaiso—small compensation for the quintet that held post position in the race during most of the season. St. Joseph’s, now in 16th spot, could move into a 13th-place tie if it defeats State. After this week, Notre Dame is scheduled to meet Great Lakes and Detroit, and St. Joseph's will face Peru naval base before the Hoosier net season winds up.

Tough Sledding Is Ahead for
Basket Teams
Breakdown of regional tournament pairings revealed today that the seven favored sectional champions are in for some tough sledding next Saturday. South Bend Central's Bears, who came through sectional competition last week-end with two “breezes” and two close squeaks, probably will stack up against Rochester’s Zebras,
lanother member of Indiana's “top
10” teams, battle. Central broke Rochester's
in the final regional
13-
|game winning streak with a 32-31
victory this season. Rochester must overpower Bourbon, winner of the Plymouth sectional, and Johnny Wonden’s Bears must eliminate .the high-scoring Elkhart outfit that
‘| outlasted the favored Goshen squad,
before the two favorites reach the championship night tilt.
Central vs. Greenfield
In the Anderson regional, Central of Lawrence appears to have a good chance to come through and return to Indianapolis for the semi-finals. They meet Greenfield and 'if successful, will play the winner of the Plainfield-Lapel game Saturday
night for the title.
Ft. Wayne Central appears to have an easy path in the afternoon but a strong Warsaw quintet looms as the probable night opponent. Lebanon is paired with Oxford in
the early engagement, and is fa-|.
vored to sink the Frankfort-Moni-tor winner. The surprising Monitor team advanced by upsetting Marion Crawley’s Lafayette quintet, who dropped a sectional title for the first time in seven years. Two more of the heavy favorites
are slated to kill off each other|
at the always right Muncie playoff, where Richmond and Muncie Burris loom as chief - contenders. However, New Castle’s high-scoring cagers, who-averaged 58 points a game, in sectional play, may be Burris’ downfall in the afternoon. Richmond's first opponent is Winchester.
Jasper Faces Decker
Jasper, 32-28 victor over Winslow in sectional finals, will face Decker, while defending state champion Washington meets Sullivan at Washington. It’s an open question which of these four quintets pair off at night, but Jasper drew pretourney favor as likely to advance straight through to the state final tourney March 20. Twenty-four teams will be aiming for their first regional crown as the slashing eliminations continue in 16 centers. Eleven of the 24 are firsttime sectional winners—Andrews, Bourbon, Center Grove, Decker, Gary Wallace, Hammond Clark, Monitor, Monroe, Morristown, New Salem and Remington. The remaining quintets, which have won sectionals but never a regional playoff, are Boonville, Burlington, Dunkirk, French Lick, Greenfield, Kitchel, Linton, Monticello, Oxford, Peru, Plainfield, Tell City and Winchester. Burris Is Rated .
Of the 64 survivors, Kokomo holds the best record for sectional titles, boasting 22. However, previously eliminated Vincennes and Franklin have 24 and 23 crowns. The four state finalists of 1942—Washington, Muncie Burris, Crawfordsville and Frankfort—still were in the running, but of these, only Burris was rated a chance to reach the finals again. New Castle’s 58 points-per-game average captured offensive honors last week-end. while Peru's defensive average of 15 points was best Princeton was offensive runner-up with a 56-point average, followed by Greensburg and Michigan City with 55 and Gary Wallace with 54. Michigan City copped the tourney high-mark by scoring 79 noints over Mill Creek to eclipse Gary Wallace's previous high of 74 points.
Godoy Wins
:S. A. Crown
SANTIAGO, Chile, March 1 (U. P.) —Arturo Godoy, rugged Chilean heavyweight who twice tackled Joe Louis, heavyweight title today as result of a 12-round decision over Alberto
{Lovell of Argentina.
The Chilean won all but three rounds on points last night before a crowd of 20,000. He cut Lovell over the left eye and had him bleeding from the mouth. Louis defeated Godoy twice in 1940, first on a 15-round decision and later knocking the South
American out in the eighth round.
