This is the coveted award which no one but Hogan ever has large camps. The soldiers are keenly interested in the game and it would give them a chance to have a good look at major league clubs. The only drawback is that there might be a little grousing when the bovs came dragging in from a 20-miie hike to see the athletes nonchalantly throwing and catchihg a baseball. We've always had the idea that spring training camps were about eight-tenths for ballyhoo and two-tenths for necessary conditioning, as a young fellow can't get so far out of condition in four months that he needs six weeks to get hack, unless he has been spending the off months taking a short course in dissipation. College football teams prepare for a much more strenuous game in three weeks or less, and have to memorize a mess of plays.

The signals a ball player has to learn are just child's play in comparison. The real justification for spring training is that it gives the managers a chance to size up rookies, and ironically enough, next year is the year that the sizing up of rookies will be of much more importance than usual. With major league players entering the armed services almost daily, the line-ups next summer are going to be sprinkled with lads who right now aren't sure whether the Polo Grounds are used for horse polo or water polo. As this is written we don't know what action the major league officials will take concerning Mr. Eastman's suggestions.

We do know that they have co-operated in every way with the war effort, and that they would cut the player limit to 10 men and play a Sunday schedule if they were told that would be to the best interests of all concerned. They'll do everything but move their training camos closer to home. That's really asking too much. Someone might discover just how bad some of the teams really are before the season starts. As long as the clubs are kept hidden in Florida or California the fans can only be suspicious.

And those who tried included such Hein and Tuffy Leemans will play for the New York Giants the team they have powered into three playoffs and one league title in the last seven years. While football is essentially a team game, it would be no exaggeration to say that the Giants' fortunes for seven years rose and fell with the playing of dependable Mel in the line and the inspiring lift given the squad by Leemans in the backfield.

Probably one of the greatest linemen and certainly one of the greatest leaders of all time. Capt. Mel Hein came from the defeated Rose Powl band of Washington State Cougars in 1930 to take over the center post in the Giant line in 1931. It took just two seasons of high-powered pro ball to polish off the rough edges of the towering center from the West coast and by 1933 it was obvious that Hein was the top man among the pivot-men of the pro league which means the best in the country. From 1933 through 1940 total of eight seasons Mel was chosen as all-league center, first by a vote of the pro coaches and then, when the sportswriters took over, by the ballots of the scribes.

Now the string has run out for Mel and. after Sunday's game, he will leave for Union College, in upstate New York, where he will coach the football team and serve as associate athletic director.

The big mystery on the eve of the tournament was the whereabouts of Byron Nelson, who telegraphed last week that he would arrive in time to seek his third consecutive Miami Open triumph. He was not on hand for a final workout today, and did not communicate-with H. H. Arnold, tournament director, who surmised that Nelson had encountered difficulties in arranging plane passage from Texas, where he has been vacationing. Last year, Nelson won with a 268, one strike higher than son and Samuel Jackson Snead, pride of the mountains.
