Joe DiMaggio is pedaling like mad on a stationary bicycle, pounding his leg muscles into shape for the grind ahead in a prelude to one of the most interesting comeback attempts of 1946. DiMag isn't taking chances on faltering or missing fire when he tries to pick up his New York career where he left off after the world series of 1942. He saw Hank Greenberg hobble around the outfield and Watched Cecil Travis bend i aching back for a grass-cutter that he never touched and he decided that was not for him. Every day you'll find the Yankee clipper at the New York Athletic Club using all the gym machines and gadgets, working like he worked before. He is putting on a "winter" training routine that makes the old spring training romps look ridiculous in comparison.

"After watching some of the other fellows last 'fall at Yankee Stadium I told myself I would undergo as tough a training schedule as I could stand," said Joe. "That means about three weeks here, two weeks more on my own in Florida and then a start with the early birds at St. Petersburg." DiMaggio has little doubt of his ability to regain his former sharpness, pointing out he was used to stepping into the lineup at the last minute, playing games a week or so after his contract trouble had been signed off. But he is taking no chances. With Tommy Heinrich, Charley Keller and DiMaggio back in the outfield and Phil Rizzuto, Joe Gordon and the rest of the gang poUr- ing back into civilian life, some of the "experts" are picking the Yanks as a shoo-in to a flag but Guiseppe doesn't see it that way.

"I can't make any predictions even if I wanted to," laughed Joe. "The team sounds great and we should be up in there but I've been away for so long that I can't honestly say what our chances are. My brother Dominic wrote me the other day he'll be back in Boston and they'll probably have Ted Williams again. And Detroit will be tough too with their outfield and pitching."

End Steve Pritko and Fullback Pat West have signed 1946 contracts with the Cleveland Rams. 1945 champions of the National Professional Football League. General Manager Charles F.

Pep, the stylish Hartford, clouter, who owns one half of the world's featherweight title, has been named the "boxer of the year" for 1946 by Ring Magazine. The 126-pound king was the only Champion to defend his crown during the year, whipping Phil ova in 15 rounds and piling up seven victories and one draw for the year. Pep's chief rivals for the "boxer of the year" honor in Ring's annual copyrighted review and yearly ring ratings were Manual Ortiz, the bantam champ from El Centro, Jake Lamotta, the rock-jawed Bronx middleweight; Ray Robinson, New York negro whose only non-winning effort was a draw with Jose Basora, and Rocky Gra2iano, a middleweight thumper who flattened six straight rivals to rank as the "best new fighter." Death of Baseball Writer Reported NEW YORK, Dec. 27 was received here today of the death in Clearwater, of Hugh S. Fullerton, one of the great baseball writers of all time and among the organizers of the Baseball Writers of America.

He was 72. News of his death was received here by his son, Hugh, Associated Press sports writer. Coaches Appeal For Recreational Facilities, Parks MONTGOMERY, Dec. 27 a sports boom surpassing anything this country has ever seen, five top-ranking football coaches joined today in an appeal for "more adequate" recreational facilities for America's children. "We let our boys and girls down after the last war," asserted Bernie Moore of Louisiana State.

"We must not do it this time." His remarks brought response from the other Blue-Gray mentors Waldorf of Northwestern, Ray Morrison of Temple, Matty Bell of Southern Methodist, and Georgia Tech's Bobby Dodd. Moore recalled the rush of sports- hungry fans to the ticket windows after 1918, and forecast a post-war demand for the next several years "that will make the last one look like child's play." He advocated a nation-wide emphasis on building parks, 1 a y- grounds, tennis courts, gridiron that will promote the physical development of youth. Echoing Moore's sentiment, Waldorf asserted that "World War I lasted 18 months; this war lasted uftdff four years. In 1918 we had thing like 6,000,000 men arms; this Hme we had That means, he said, the for recreation will be twice as great as it was aftef World War 1, Returningavetetans will want afid demand a place to play, the western coach added, antf "it's tip to to give it to than." Bell, Morrison and Dodd ag that "there is no substitute physical training. Owr boys girls need it and deserve it."
