Kelley Baffles Hens

Last night the Indians won the series finale from the Toledo Mud Hens, 3 fo 1. It was a well-played contest staged before 2000- fans and the veteran Harry Kelley lasted the route on the Tribe mound. “ Five double plays were made in

by the Indians. Despite his age and bulk, Kelley helped his own cause by alert fielding and turned in six assists, The Hens got their lone marker in the fourth stanza, after which Kelley tightened and kept the visitors’ blows scattered. The Indians won the struggle in g the fourth when they splurged for “their-three runs on #n efor, three,

Rookie of Year

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2 (U.

His flelding has been little 1é8s than sensational,” Kell was purchased by the A's last fall from Lancaster of the Interstate league where he hit 397, the highest batting average in organized ball last year.

FOREST HILLS, N. Y., Sept. 2 (U.

The big® blond from Beverly Hills had been tough in 1942 and again in 1943, but a seeding upset. and luck of the draw drew them together in the upper half this year.

Announces Game to Be Cloistered

NOW.. 45 IT tured out, at Js aout the pele time we were * talking with the colonel, the new navy James Forrestal, + called in the newsmen and announced the game was going to remain a cloistered affair and would again be played on navy’s home - grounds, with attendance restricted to

locals. i ‘But all the while the authorities at the military academy, and:

resumably the naval academy, were kept in ignorance; ly Tr ‘they hadn't been « even as a courtesy gesture. To the innocent bystander this is all very puzzling and we thought the boys \ in uniform might like to hear about it. There must be times, too, whion they. feel bury that Gen. Marshall and Agm. Ring den't ‘cue sult with them. : i It is hard to make sense oup of the’ to hide the na“tion's biggest football game for the third straight year, The only ~ possible explanation seems to be that the ‘Wa “people” sre + determined to be consistent for the duration. hide the first X s wartime game and apparently they are resalved to- adhere to this policy until the war is ended. ~ . They Travel for Otler Games : IN THE BEGINNING the thought was that if the game waa _ concealed under ‘the campus elms, and attendance restricted, there & “would be no added strain on transportation. That's probably still .the thought, and there'd be no quarrel with it, except both army -_ -and navy teams ship out on other trips for football play * in massive stadiums and no doubt stimulate travel. A year ago, * for example, Navy went to Cleveland to play Notre Dame." - This year Navy will make three trips to Baltimore and one Philadelphia for games. Army will visit New York twice, sna Phi delphia once. Yet when the two service teams come together, and’ in a game which will have national implications, they must Neti, it severely under cover. This simply doesn’t add up. Aside from ' public interest, which may or may not be important, there are other z considerations. oi One has to do with the young men who are training to be officers and whose main enthusiasm, next to the flag, is {or their team. This year, if wartime custom is followed, the will not be permitted to see their heroes in action against the traditional enemy. * They must stay behind and absorb the. Seals via the air waves. Meanwhile, a hand-picked group of middies will form an ersats rooting section—to root against their own team. This is supposed to boost army morale. Gets increasingly silly, doesn’t it? r ” ” s » ” . HERE'S A SUGGESTION: Let the Cadets see the game any‘way. It's the one game of the year they want to see most, and _ surely the transportation of the corps, or a part of it, isn't going to throw the entire. war program clear out of kilter. Keep the public away, if adherence to consistency is that important, but for Pete's sake, let the youngsters see the game. There's the usual * quota of seniors, and this'll be their last contact with their play world, / ) Another consideration, namely, that the game could be used as a tremendous medium to sell war bonds is obvious and has been discussed here and elsewhere several times. The treasury departmient is alert to all such opportunities in sports, even to ping pong tournaments and corn husking championships, yet this game, most ‘natural of naturals; is ignored. At least there is no record that the department attempted to get a green light on it. .
