Opinion Persists ODT Ban Earlier in Season Did Not End All Hope By CARL LUXDQOST, United Press Staff Writer NEW YORK, Aug. 4 Without any intent to rush a fellow who can file a strong claim to being the busiest man in America these days, it appears that the time has come for Defense Transportation Director J. Monroe Johnson to say once and for all if the World Series can be played. Up to now there has not been the slightest doubt in the mind of any ballplayer that somehow the annual tf V-r.

Weeding Out Under Way Irish Show Strength 'Up Middle'; Running Fullback Needed Most NOTRE DAME, Aug. 4 (Special) After three weeks of summer football drills, Coach Hugh Devore and his staff are beginning to get a good line on what they will have available for the tough 10-game schedule which starts Sept. 29. The 100-odd grid aspirants have had six scrimmage sessions since they reported on July 16, and the weeding-out process is under way. Eight lettermen are among the candidates and an- 1 I ft classic will get underway on schedule N.

J. Collela was the leading high" school scorer in Pennsylvania in XWi1' "Even if I hadn't been so cocky it would have been tough. He's the cutest guy I've ever met." His three fights with the New Yorkers drew $56,000 in Milwaukee. Of that Juste got $13,000 not bad for a 20-year-old. After dropping the first duke, he came back to take the second and stop Shapiro in.

their third meeting. Nearing- the Top Cancellation of the Lulu Costan-tino fight, orginally scheduled for Forbes Field on Tuesday, was a big blow to the sleek lightweight. He has stopped three New York veterans in a row and was confident he could add the Italian windmill to the list, thus moving one step nearer to the big time. Fairway Goss By CARL HUGHES Conversation comes cheap with Fritzie Zivic, but five minutes of it he spent in Milwaukee a couple years ago has been paying dividends since. That five minutes was all it took Mr.

Flatnose to persuade Juste Fontaine that he should do hi beak-busting for pay. And it was the start of a boxing stable that may butter Fritzie's bread the rest of his' life. An 18-year-old amateur bantamweight champion at the time, Fontaine had different ideas about his future. He boxed because he liked to, not for any mercenary reasons. But that all changed after Manager Zivic got in his five minutes worth.

Fritzie's business instincts told him that the little fellow had a future, and he intended helping him cash in on it. Has Won 29 of 33 Since that day the old campaigner found him sparring in a Milwaukee gym, Juste (pronounced has been brought along carefully, seldom being over-matched or extended. As a result he's now won 29 of his 33 starts, 21 of which were abbreviated by knockouts. The good right hand that engineered those kayoes is Juste's best selling point. He makes a fine appearance in the ring and always puts on a good show, but it's not until he throws in that convincer that the fans really sit up and take notice.

The fact that there's only 134 pounds behind it opens their eye even wider. Fontaine has wins over three of the four fighters who have whipped him Maxie Shapiro, Ruby Garcia and Sammy Parrotto. The other, Leroy Willis, he met only once. Beat Himself Juste admits that one thing beat him in two of those fights himself. "I guess I was a little cocky against both Shapiro and he concedes, "but it will never happen again.

Now I tell myself every guy I meet has a chance to beat me, so I go out and get him first. "It's funny about that first Shapiro fight," Fontaine continued. Nets Owner $36,900 Busher Victor Of Arlington CHICAGO. Aug. 4 (UP) Busher.

Louis B. Mayer's long-striding chestnut filly, breezed to victory by four and a half lengths in the 16th renewal of the $55,000 Arlington Handicap today at- Washington Park. Mrs. Clyde Troutt's Take Wing took second in a photo finish from Mrs. Ada L.

Rice's Sirde. With Johnny Longden up and carrying 113 pounds, the spirited daughter of War Admiral marked up a noteworthy victory by covering the mile and a quarter in the mediocre time of 2:03 4 '5. It was the farthest the little lady had ever been asked to go and she answered the challenge brilliantly to run seven other horses into the ground. It was her sixth victory in seven starts this season. Busher, purchased by Mayer last winter for $50,000 from Col.

E. R. Bradley, ran her 1945 w-innings to $141,620 with the addition of the $36,900 she picked up today. She paid her backers $4.20, $3.20 and $2.60. Pot O' Luck, runner-up to Hoop Jr.

in the Kentucky Derby, wound up fifth. Take Wing, carrying 110 pounds, with Art Fischer up, staged a fast finish to take second by a nose and to pay $10.20 and $5.60, while Sirde was worth $5.20. Flairer. 26 52 2 20 .250 in the first week in October. Nor have the club owners expressed any concern in the matter, lending the general impression that no one took the edict of Johnson seriously when he said that the series could not be held unless both teams were from the same city.

With the arrival of August, the major league races reach the showdown stage and the players on contending teams are developing a strong curiosity over whether they are playing for fun or funds. Without a World Series there can't be any fat player cuts for the pennant winning teams and the lesser shares for the members of the other six first division squads. If the players begin to Army Teams Pack NBC Tourney List WICHITA. Aug. 4 (UP) The Sherman Flyers of Kansas, defending champs, will open the 1945 National championship tournament here Aug.

10, against Chanute Field, 111., Ray Dumont, president of the National Baseball Congress, announced today. With exception of the Cessna Bobcats, Kansas champions, all teams participating will represent the Army. The Office of Defense Transportation recommended that all out-of-state civilian teams not be permitted to compete because of the transportation shortage. have their doubts that the series will be played, there is likely to be a noticeable let-down at a time when the caliber of play should be at its finest. Grcenlight for One-City Series Perhaps Johnson isn't in a po-t sition to say even conditionally whether the transportation crisis will be eased sufficiently to play the series two months from now.

But what has been most puzzling from the start was his green light for a one-city series. Actually the principal objection of playing the World Series was not in the transportation required for the two teams and the minimum of officials necessary to stage it. What caused the most concern was the fact that despite restrictions on railroad tickets, thousands of fans would find a way to travel by train to see the classic; That possibility would exist even more if the series were in a single city than if it were in two since the fans would have the bigger attraction of seeing from four to seven games, whereas if it were spit between two towns they couldn't see more than from two to four games. Cubs, Tigers Off Main Line As the teams hit the stretch It appears that only a late collapse can keep the Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers from being the world series opponents. The cities are about five hours apart and are connected by train routes that are off the transcontinental main lines.

Even with full squads and with team officials there would not be more than 50 members of each club traveling. And only at the middle of the series when the teams changed playing sites would it be necessary for both teams to travel at once. At Forbes Field Angott to Meet Burton Here Sammy who is running Fritzie Zivic a close second for having "retired" the most times. will begin another comeback in meeting Gene Burton of New York at Forbes Field on Monday, Aug. 20.

The bout, a ten-rounder, was announced last night bv Matchmaker Jake Mintz of the Rooney-M i 1 Boxing Club. It will end Angott's Angott latest retirement, which began last November. The Washington, fighter's first gesture at withdrawing from the ring was made just two years before, when he was the undefeated world lightweight champion. Going back into the ring in 1943, Angott ended Willie Pep's record victory string and before the year was out had won the National Boxing lightweight title. Sammy has not fought in a local ring since 1941, just before he took the crown from Lew Jenkins.

Burton's one appearance here was an impressive one. He hardly had a glove laid on him all evening in easily beating hard-punching Willie Russell early in the Summer. The New York colored boy was scheduled to meet Ike Williams at Philadelphia, and when the Camden flash backed out of the fight, Burton was booked here. He has lost only two fights in his career and is a pleasing boxer, being adept on defense, but still packing a punch. Raffertyr Peralta At Hickey Park Doll Rafferty, who has made a big hit with Hickey Park fans after two easy victories there, gets a real test one week from tomorrow night at the Millvale punch bowl.

Matchmaker Jack White announced last night that he has paired the Milwaukee Negro with Joey Peralta, a tough Mexican club-fighter who has been meeting the best lightweights in the business for the past couple years. Peralta owns wins over such boys as Chalky Wright, Cleo Shans, Dave Castillous, Mike Delia and Ruby Garcia, and drew twice with Bobby Ruffin. In addition, he has gone ten rounds with such former champions as Sammy Angott. Bob Montgomery, Willie Pep and Juan Zurita. The Milwaukee clouter ended Arbrie Bowie's win streak in easy fashion and in his last appearance here stopped Sammy Parrotto.

He has shown inclinations of laziness, loafing whenever possible, but Peralta will likely keep him too busy for that. METROPOLITAN POLICE REVOLVER LEAGUE MATCH NO. 9 PITTSBURGH Cr3Tilfn 90 P8 P4 22 Merj 8T P8 04 27f ETn 87 PI 33 270 Bpcsb S3 92 P3 2K plr S6 4 SS 258 Total '136? WESTINGHOXSE West Penn Golf Body Soon To Set Amateur Title Play another monogram winner. Guard Fred Rovai, will report when the squad again convenes Sept. 4 for Fall workouts.

The veterans include Center Frank Szymanski; Fullbacks Marty Wendell and Elmer Angs-man. Quarterbacks Frank Dancewicz and Joe Gasparella; Guard John Mastrangelo, Tackle Pete Berezney and End Bob Skoglund. Devore's big problem is to find running back to replace men like Bob Kelly and Jimmy Brennan from the '44 team, and to unearth some tackles and ends. There isn't single halfback returning from last year's squad, but there is a likely looking bunch of first-year men, any one of whom might make the grade. Strong Up Middle Notre Dame's strength seems to be "up in the middle," where Szymanski.

Dancewicz and Wendell, all outstanding in their play last year, will again hold forth. Each should be an outstanding candidate for All-American honors, unless rigor mortis sets in somewhere during the season. Left-end Bob Skoglund is the only returning wingman, and he will be available only until the first part of November, when he is due to receive his ensign's commission from the Navy's ROTC school Meanwhile, Coach Harry Jacunski is trying to dig up some talent from a group of newcomers, most of whom are right out of high school. Best of the group appears to be Matt Maryanski, Bloomfield, N. who is now at right end.

Others showing promise are Phil O'Connor, from Indianapolis, and Bruno Opela from Chicago's Lane Tech. Chicago boys dominate the tackle scene, wnere uerezney is tne only vet back. Berezney, now tipping the scales at 220, will be the regular right tackle. Ed Mieszkow ski, who was on the squad the past two years but did not see much action is currently holding down the other varsity post. He is from Tilden Tech, Chicago.

Two other boys from the Windy City are battling for spots, one being 255- pound Bill Fischer, from Lane Tech. while the other is John vainisi, 220-pounder from St, George. Guard Positions Set The Irish seem fairly well set at the guard jobs, where Fred Rovai and John Mastrangelo. both of whom played regularly last year are due for repeat performances. Challenging them are Tom Potter, 195-pound Army dischargee from Kearney, N.

and John Fallon 210-pound converted tackle from Alton, 111. The latter was on the squad last year, and has improved tremendously, and may win starting berth. Captain Szymanski, one the country's best centers last year, has the pivot post salted away. Tom Walsh, a 215-pound, 17-year-old freshman from Phillipsburgh. N.

is the best of the younger crop, with Tom Schreiber, Detroit, a holdover from last year, also in the picture. Notre Dame's greatest strength seems to be in its quarterbacks, Dancewicz, a great passer, runner, strategist and defensive star throughout the 1944 schedule, will again hold down the No. 1 job. Also available is Joe Gasparella, brilliant freshman star from last Fall, who spelled Dancewicz. Roger Cadieux.

a sophomore from Springfield, and George Ratter-man, Navy ROTC trainee from Cincinnati, are battling for the No. 3 job. Both are fine passers, and good all around prospects. Rat- terman is trying to win Ms lourtn ND monogram, having previously lettered in basketball, baseball and tennis. Collela Shows Promise Two of the standout freshmen halfbacks are Phil Collela, 175-pound speedster from Rochester, and John (Pep) Panelli, 200-pound prospect from Norristown, Advertisement UUSTE Fontaine TH6 LITTLE PRftNCHMAN IS FR.IT2.lt 2 1 VIC'S tLT-CDSEO POST-WAR we has won aeoptfis 33 PRO Pi SWTS 2.1 BY KAYOS AND MAS DEFINITE DESIGNS ON THE LIGHTWEIGHT CROWN- The September edition of Ring Magazine rates Fontaine as the country's No.

9 lightweight. Considering the fact that the lightweight class has been by far the most active since the war started, that's a distinct honor, and may presage a lucrative New York shot for him in the near future. Juste has been spending part of his time in ring togs since he was a lad of 12. and figures another two years will find him near the top. For the present, though, his plans are limited.

Next on the docket is an Aug. 20 date with Al Gomez In Milwaukee. If a suitable oppo nent can be lined up, Mr. Fontaine's local public will see him in Forbes Field next month. HUHX the West Penn amateur golf be fixed during the coming Club is being favorably con regular handicaps G.

A life guard captain on the At lantic beach, Conover ran ap proximately half a mile to the scene of the drowning and took over respiratory work. He collapsed while working over the boy's body. Dr. I. E.

Leonard, Atlantic County physician, said Conover died of a heart attack caused bv over-exertion. Conover had been a Conover life guard here for the past 28 years. Larry Conover was well-known in this district, both because of his exploits at Penn State and his work as a pro football referee. He played center for the Lions in 1916, '17 and '19, captaining the 1917 eleven. The 1919 squad, greatest in the school's history, was the last team from State to beat Pitt until 1939.

Conover later played three years for the Pottsvilte, entry in the National Football League. He held the position of line coach at Georgia for a short time and went back to Penn State as an assistant in 1926, staying until 1932. The last two years there he spent tutoring the freshmen. He has been a referee in the pro loop for eight years. Mouledous, Flam Win Net Titles KALAMAZOO.

Aug. 4 (UP) Richard Mouledous, New Orleans, today won the boys' crown of the National Junior and Boys tennis championships, by defeating George Gentry, La Jolla, 6-3, 6-3. Gentry gathered a share of glory, however, when he teamed with Vincent Schmieder, Los Angeles, to win the Boys' Doubles championship. They defeated Mouledous and Keston Deimling, of River Forest, in three, hard-fought sets, 6-3, 3-6. 6-2.

The Junior championship was won by Herbert Flam, Los Angeles, Calif, as he decisively defeated the ranking favorite, Bernard (Tut) Bartzen, of San Angelo, in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4.

Among the left-halfbacks who have impressed during the scrimmige sessions this summer are Terry Brennan, 185-pound speedboy from Milwaukee, brother of Jimmy Brennan of the 1944 Irish team, and John Agnone, Youngstown, Ohio, who was on the squad but did not see action last fall. The fullback department should be well equipped. Marty Wendell, who will start the season, barring the unforseen, was one of the greatest line-backers in college ball last year. Backing Wendell Is Frank Ruggerio, East Orange, N. Junior, who after two years of disappointments, seems set for a good season.

Two Cut from Squad Contact Drills Next for Pitt Under the broiling summir sun yesterday, the Pitt Panther Grid-. iron hopefuls concluded the first week of summer practice sessions. Coach Shaughnessey has been stressing conditioning work and signal drills with a watchful eye pointed towards the strenuous iall schedule. The outlook for the sea- son cannot be determined now, as the majority of aspirants for tha positions are first-year men. The high-spirited squad have been 'zooming' through the ardous workout drills and will be ready for some contact work by the middle of the week.

The armed services beckoned two. more gridmen last week, cutting the squad down to an even 60. Most of the lads are of draft age, and before the opening whistle blows for the Sept. 22 contest at Illinois, many of the youngsters will probably trade their football Jerseys for the togs of Uncle Sam.
