Hoping to get in the groove for his three-game chore in the Union Printcrafts League yesterday at Madrid, Bill decided to roll one practice game. He banged out a mighty 254. Then he totaled only 419 for his three games when it counted.

Frank Fahey was the heavy man for the printers with a 603 that featured a 223 game.

ROUGHER It is a little tougher on some of these young athletes than for the average young fellow. Sure, they were just participating in games, but to them their means of livelihood was just as upright and worthwhile as that of any other citizen, for after all a lawyer or an insurance man or storekeeper isn't prompted by any altruistic motive in his choice of making a living. He's just out to do the best he can financially for himself, and that's what your professional athlete has in mind.

A man gifted with superior physical ability and co-ordination than his fellows has a comparatively short span of years in which to cash in on his gifts. If he is good he often can make enough in those years to keep himself in comfort the remainder of his days. Take two, or three, or four or more years out of that span and you are not only cutting his earning capacity at the peak of his career, but perhaps endangering the balance of his career. A man of 40 can expect his mental capacity to continue in high gear indefinitely, even if interrupted somewhere along the way by activities other than his business. Your athlete at 40 is through.

The body just doesn't hold up like the mind. A young chap of 25, say, who is in the insurance business, can be taken away from his business for five years and still return and be as capable as ever. A ball player of the same age, out of the game five years, would be so rusty he probably never could recover his ability. If the war doesn't last too long many of our young athletes might reasonably expect to get in some more money-making competition. Major leaguers who went into the service in the last war, including Hank Gowdy and Grover Cleveland Alexander, returned to have good years ahead of them.

They should go, when their number is up, as quickly as the next man. But we do think that what they are giving up isn't generally appreciated.

The attitude too often is: "Oh, he's just a ball player; why shouldn't he be in the service." But that's his living. You might as well say: "Oh, he's just a shopkeeper." And who is the shopkeeper working for? Sure, himself. And aren't we all.

Banner Council No. 39, winner of only one game, had played the high-stepping Hoosiers to a standstill and had gone on top in the final minute by 27-26. Ramsier's looper not only won the ball game but earned him high-point honors for his team with 9.

J. Knight headed Banner with 12. The victory was Centenary's sixth straight. The Contractors stayed within a game of the leader by running over Christ Church Cathedral, 30-19, as Jack Zeillman scorched the nettings with 20 points. First Presbyterian Church pulled away from a 26-26 count in the final two minutes to register a 34-28 victory over West Louisville Evangelical.

The meet will carry $300 in added prize money and the $2 entry fee will entitle the bowler to the ample refreshments that will be served, Secretary Young announced. The meet is being arranged in lieu of the annual Tri-State Union Printcrafts Tournament which is a war casualty. It will be conducted on a 70 per cent handicap basis and a drawing will be held to determine partners. So, despite the calling off of the A.B.C., the Tri-State and the Elks meets, tourney activity will be humming here in Louisville for the next couple of months. What with the Men's City Tournament opening Saturday at Central, the Women's Handicap starting February 21 at Madrid and the Printcrafts picking up in March.

style, OPEN By WHITNEY MARTIN. New York, Feb. 4 (AP) Johnny Beazley provides a vibrant echo of Bob Feller's remark that he expected to resume his major league pitching career when the war is over, granting that the war might last until Young Johnny Beazley is Old Man Beazley. "I'm young and I think I'll still have plenty of pitching left in me when it's over," declares the Yankee Clipper. Joe Di-Maggio usually is referred to as the Yankee Clipper, but the way Beazley clipped the Yankees in two games in the last World Series while working for the Cardinals gives him some claim to that handle.

1 7 II STINT Beazley right now is at Miami Beach working his head off to obtain a commission in the Army Air Forces technical training command, and he freely admits that pitching against the Yankees is child's play compared with the routine he is going through now. He's on a 17-hour daily schedule compared with the two hours he worked every fourth day or so while leading the rigorous life of a major leaguer. Everyone is hoping that the war is over soon enough that the Beazleys and the Fellers and the other young fellows whose careers were interrupted can return to their trade. Some of the older players who have gone into the service hardly can hope to re Wesleyan Defeats Eastern 41 Fouls Called As Panthers Triumph 5449 Special to The Courier-Journal. Winchester, Feb.

4. Wesleyan defeated Eastern here tonight by 54-49 in as rough and fast a game as the town ever has seen. Twenty-six fouls were called on the Panthers and 15 on the losers as three players were put out of the game for unnecessary roughness. Reis of Wesleyan and Hudnall of Eastern went to the bench in the first half and Tinnell of Eastern was banished in the second. The score was tied three times in the first half.

The Maroons led 17-14 a few minutes before intermission, but the Panthers spurted and pulled up to a 20-21 disadvantage at the half. In the second half. Eastern pulled away to 33-26, before Wesleyan started its game-winning bid. After tying the count at 36, a long shot by Halbert, a push by Callahan and another long by H. Martin put Wesleyan out in front 42-36 to stay.
