JOE WILLIAMS SAYS ....

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—From far away India come observations on a baseball-military situation which has lifted more than one civilian eyebrow but because of its delicate nature has received no public airing, Briefly, it has to do with major league ball players who continue as such in the service. These observations were penned by a soldier-writer, John Derr, who conducts a sports column for the CBI roundup, service newspaper in the China-Burma-India

region. He writes: “It's not their fault. Anyone who's been in the army knows You go where you are sent—and that goes for generals as well as privates. But it has been difficult for clear thinking Americans to understand why many big name ball players become ‘permanent party’ at choice spots in the states and do their fighting with bat and glove. “Thus it was a good thing for baseball when it was announced these men were being sent overseas. It took the athletes off a spot that was beginning to place them in an unfavorable light. The deal was that certain post-commanders, sports- -minded and proud of their command, singled out talented players and kept them to strengthen the post teams.

The Players Want Real Action

“BUT EVENTUALLY encugh people asked enough other people why this practice existed and after a quiet campaign through congressmien the ball players started moving. Overseas orders were _ handed some while others went to new stateside posts to resume their playing #Sgt. Joe Di Maggio was among those givert an APO. “So what kind of -service do these lads run into overseas? Are they assigned to regular duty? Well, not exactly. They have been placed in service leagues and play baseball five days a week. They didnt ask for it. Maybe they didn't ask for combat duty either but we suspect a lot of them would feel more important if they were toting an M-1 instead of a Louisville slugger. “Di Maggio and 16 other major and ‘minor leaguers are stationed at Honolulu. Among the big timers at this spot are Judnich, Browns; Lodigiani, White Sox; McCormick, Reds; Priddy, Senators, “Plans call for this league to function three months, during which ‘time the commanding officer says the presence of the players will boost the morale of the troops. Then they'll be re-assigned. It's an uncomfortable position the army has built for thesé players. And while it's a snap job—playing ball five days a week and no KP-—we contend if these men were given their choice they'd choose some other army job.”

‘If He Can Play, He Can Fight’ .

SOLDIER-WRITER Derr here shifts to the subject of draft classifications. At tH¥ time he wrote it appeared ball players might be grouped in 2-A. ... “Personally we would be pleased to see these placed in such a group. rather than in the fishy sounding 4-F which has to do with flat feet, pierced ear drums and temperamental knee caps. If a man’s fit to play baseball he’s not too decrepit to fill some job in the army, If he's to be deferred, thus permitting him to continue to play baseball, don't camouflage the reason” . . . the soldier-writer closes on this melancholy note: “Anyway, if a ball player is inducted he'll probably wind up playing for some post : team five days a week.” As a group, baseball owners are reasonably sound persons and they have been careful not to make themselves look ridiculous by taking bows for their “contributions” to the armed forces. Yet it is an open secret they are mystified by the uses to which some of their drafted players have been subjected. Along with soldier-writer Derr, who is close to the situation, they feel the army is putting the big time player on the spot; that it is encouraging a policy which smacks too much of special privilege. It would be erroneous if not dangerous to create the impression that all ball players and name atheletes in the service are pampered. Actually, the truth runs to the contrary, and a grim part of the truth ‘is to be found in the casualty lists. And it's only fair to concede the army knows the value of morale and how best to create it. On the other hand, there is the hard headed realist who must insist a soldier's job is soldiering.

Pirates Stage Rush

The Pirates are staging a rush which would gain ground on any club but the Cardinals and are currently riding an eight-game winning streak and have tucked away 10 victories in their last 11 starts, the latest being a pair yesterday over the Boston Braves.
