Congressman . Gerald Ww. Landis of Indiana's Seventh district says
“The American public does not realize that sports have been closely geared to the war effort.” Landis, former golf and _ gridiron coach at Linton, Ind, high ‘school, ‘made that statement in a recent newspaper article about “Sports in .Our Soldiers Training.” He is right, The public certainly doesn’t, The groups that see and appreciate most clearly the proper function of sports in wartime are the doctors and psychiatrists. Their observation of the physical and aeuro-psychological casualties of war among armed and civilian Americans has defined a vital job for wartime sports. They realize: the necessity of ex
nding sports to bring about re-|;
q physical condition and to - balance the tension of these exact‘ing days and nights. - Those competent © experts who ‘treat casualties on the war and war industry fronts are best qualign to’ determine the place of rts in wartime. They urge that sports, both in the armed services and in civilian life, be conducted ‘more extensively: and ' energetically ‘than ever before in speéding progress to victory. » » » There was plenty of action on “local courses yesterday as the boys began’ stroking their ways around the links early in the morning.

Strangely enough, it’s been pitching that has put the Senators up’
Bluege has
ting around sixth in the team averages. Bluege must have a way with pitchers because . Alex Oanangus) has developed into a polished pe former, Dutch Leonard is his Fold dependable self, Early Wynn is a consistent winner and Milo Candini looks like a freshman find. In yesterday's double-header program, the Yankees struggled through to a double win over the Browns, 2-1 (11 innings) and 10-8, but the Senators kept right in step by stretching their record to five wins in six starts with a double victory over Detroit, 5-1 and 8-4. Rookie Bill Johnson's single drove home Joe Gordon with the Yanks’ winning run in the 11th inning of the first game, while Johnny Lindell, newest cleanup hitter, poled out a brace of two-run homers to top a nine-hit New York aftack on three pitchers in the nightcap. Nick Etten also hit a four-master and with Lindell drove in eight of the Yankees’ 10 runs.
Off to Early Start
The Senators slammed across five runs against Paul Trout and Hal White in the second inning of the
{first game, while Milo Candini, with
a boost from Jim Mertz, handcuffed Detroit with nine hits in the nightcap. Philadelphia divided with Cleveland to remain in a tie for third place with Detroit. The A’s worked over Allie Reynolds and Chubby Dean for four runs in the seventh and added six more in the eighth to take the first game, 12-5, but bowed to Jack Salveson’s four-hitter in the nightcap, 5-0. Salveson, Lou Boud-
‘Ireau and Roy Cullenbine homered
for the Tribe in the second game. | Boston stopped Chicago, 4-3 and 3-2, to climb within half a game of sixth place. Skeeter Newsome’s hit brought home the winning run in the ninth of the opener and Dee Miles’ two-run single provided the winning -edge in the finale. The Dodgers could get no more than an even break with the Cubs to remain half a game out of first place in the National league and now face a threat from red-hot Pittsburgh, which climbed to within four games of the top. Eimer Riddle Wins
Cincinnati clipped the Braves, 4-3, in a 14-inning first game and the second was postponed because of weather. After allowing three runs in the first inning, Elmer Riddle cut loose with 13 frames of runless pitching to finally decision Nate Andrews, who now has lost four of five overtime duels. Eddie Miller slammed a 3-0 pitch for his third hit with the bases loaded to win the game. The Phillies and Cardinals played to a 1-1 tie in the first game of a double-header pared to five innings by weather which also cut out the . | nightcap.
Yesterday's Star—Johnny Lindell, who hit two homers and drove in four runs as the Yankees beat the Browns, 10-6, in the second game of a double bill.

Armstrong to
Meet Angott
NEW YORK, June 7 (U. P.).— The 10-round lightweight match between Sammy Angott and Henry Armstrong, both heading along the comeback trail, takes top billing on this week's national boxing schedule. The New York version of the featherweight crown will be at stake at Boston Tuesday night, where Champion Willie Pep goes against Sal Bartolo in a match expected to draw a gate of $75,000. In another ranking bout, a pair of Cleveland fighters, Jimmy Bivins and Lloyd Marshall, fight for recognition as duration light heavyweight champion at Cleveland Tuesday. It’s an “all-or-nothing” bout for
both Angott and Armstrong. Both would suffer considerable loss of prestige if defeated at Madison Square Garden Friday night. Angott is trying to regain the title he gave up last fall, while Armstrong also is shooting for the 135-pound crown.

Bob Arthur, hard hitting Columbus, O., heavyweight, and Johnny Denson, Indianapolis 190-pounder, have been signed to clash in the initial outdoor boxing show of the season to be staged at.the Sports Arena by the Hercules Athletic club Thursday night, June 10. ‘The tilt is billed for 10 rounds. Arthur is remembered by local fight followers for a thrilling battle with "Lou. Thomas, another local heavyweight who now is serving in the armed forces, on the occasion of the Buckeye belter’'s first and only appearance here last winter. Thomas, who was stationed at Ft.

Gunder Hagg,
Sweden's Ace
Miler, Arrives in New York
By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, June 7 (U. P.).— Gunder Hagg, who has been hailed as the first possible four-minute miler, started intensive training today for a four-month cross-counury | campaign against America's top track stars. The tall, thin runner with the lank brown hair arrived here by plane yesterday from New Orleans where he had docked Saturday. The first man to greet him as he stepped onto LaGuardia field was stocky, little Greg Rice, against whom he will match strides and stamina in an assault on the record books. For a moment the two regarded each other with narrowed eyes. Then they simultaneously reached out in a handclasp that spelled friendship. “The hest of luck,” Rice said. “We really appreciate your voyage over here.” Hagg couldn't understand the words, but his blue eyes sparkled at the cordial tone. He nodded happy agreement, “This one time I guess I can beat you,” Rice added as they jogged around the plane for the benefit of photographers. And once again Hagg, warmed by the comradely sound, nodded happily. “The heat will be a great handicap,” he said. “But please don't
regard that as an attempted alibi.
It has been the dream of my athletic career to come to America and compete against your athletes, and I will do my best.” First ‘Secretary Sven Dahlman of the Swedish legafion in Washington, who accompanied Hagg from New Orleans along with AAU. Secretary Daniel J. Ferris, said that a country training site would be sought. The Dartmouth track at Hanover, N. H.,, and Princeton uni-
versity’s stadium both were under consideration. As he left for his first workout at Columbia university's track, Hagg was questioned about the elusive four-minute mile, “I think it is a distinct possibil ity for someone, but I believe I’ getting too old for it,” he said mod estly. “It might even happen ‘this summer.” The 24-year-old Swede, who set nine world records last simmer and lowered the world mile mark to 4:04.6, announced through an interpreter that he would make his first appearance in the National AAU track and field meet at Triborough stadium June 19 and 20. After that he will appear in war relief meets in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, Washin, Pittsburgh, Cleveland and possibly several other cities before returning to Sweden late in September.

WARNS AGAINST SOFT PASTURES
Purdue Dairyman Advises | |
Farmers to Keep Cattle Out.
Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind, June 7.— Pasturing cattle on flooded land before it has been well drained and is again firm may cause destruction of the pasture, E. A, Gannon, Purdue university extension dairyman; warned today. Waiting until the pasture has dried out before using it will prevent cutting up of the pasture sod, keep udders from becoming muddy, bruised or cut, protect the quality of dairy products, and save time and labor, he said. Where feed is short and pasture must be used, Gannon urged that dairymen: : Urges Precautions
1. Wash udders with 200 parts per million chlorine solution, just before milking. 2. Examine udders and teats for scratches, cuts and bruises. 3. Treat all abnormal conditions immediately. It is important under flood conditions to maintain healthy herds, he said. The {following precautions were suggested by Gannon: 1. Inspect pastures carefully. 2. Bury or burn carcasses of all dead animals. 3. Keep animals away from pockets of stagnant watér, as far as possible, until the flood subsides. 4. Burn accumulated trash as soon as possible. 5. Discard moldy feed. 6. Keep marooned or strayed ani-
mals away from stock until owners
are located.

Hard of hearing persons in or near Indianapolis were invited today to visit the Telex Hearing center, located at 710 Kahn building, and to try the new SuperTelex High Fidelity hearing aid. The new Super-Telex, according to C. S. Pratt, manager of the recently-opened center, is the only hearing aid wtih four Pentode tubes in a “push-pull” circuit. The great reserve of power and “balanced” sound amplification achieved by this new principle brings a new and much clearer hearing to the user, more natural and pleasant than anyone thought possible even a short time ago, Mr. Pratt said. In addition, the Super-Telex is equipped with the new tone discriminator, a device which enables the user to filter out unwanted background noises, With the tone discriminator conversation is made pleasant and comfortable even under the most adverse conditions, in a crowded bus, a noisy resaurant or amidst _the hum of voices and clatter of

CUTTING SMALLER TREES INEFFICIENT
Times Special
LAFAYETTE, Ind, June 7.—It takes twice as long to make 1000 board feet of lumber from a small tree as from a large tree, according to J. L. VanCamp, Purdue university extension forester. Farm owners cutting logs, or lumbermen producing material for the forest industry may increase their efficiency from 20 to 50 per cent by cutting the large trees and leavying the smaller ones for future growth, he said. Logs made from 29-inch trees re-, quire 3.8 man hours of labor per ° 1000 board feet, while those from 15-inch trees require 64 man hours for the same amount of lumber, according to information *eceived from F. R. Cope Jr. chairman of the Allegheny Forest Research Advisory council. Cutting small trees wastes time in loading, unloading and milling, and the consequent tie-up of trucks and machinery in transporting and processing immature timber is a waste of manpower, equipment and resources.
