He's the number one man in Florida these days, sent here by Uncle Sam for training because of the same year-round climate that once attracted him as a civilian on holiday. His coming has taken some hotels, a few golf courses and at least one big league baseball training park off the regular tourist market.

(if) --The Big Ten's faculty representatives voted today to delay action on making freshmen eligible for varsity teams but reserved the right to meet again on 24 hours notice any time a critical shortage of athletic manpower develops.

Richart of Illinois, secretary of the group, discussed the meeting and said that varying reports on how rapidly the teen-age university students would be called to the Armed forces resulted in the notion to table the proposal.
