Ask Young Bob CHICAGO You can't convince young Bob Wilson, son Cub Manager Jimmy Wilson, that the veteran Jimmy Foxx has lost his hitting power. Young Bob was struck by one cf Foxx' line smashes Tuesday while pitching in batting practice. X-ray pictures showed the right arm was broken. PTTV XJ By KAY PAGEL Press-Gazette Sports Editor Kamz'ic Hopes to Get Into Air Corps NICK KAMZIC is going to keep right on being an ambitious young man, even if he will be forced to change or postpone certain plans for the duration when he reports for army duty at Fort Sheridan Monday. He is leaving Green Bay and his position as the Bluejay shortstop rather regretfully, although quite willingly.

"I'm going to try my best to be a good soldier," he declared. Nick's "best" does not mean plugging along as an ordinary private, keeping in the good graces of the sergeant as much possible, and hoping for an eventual promotion. Nick is going lo try to get into the air corps. "I had two years of college work at Wilson Junior in Chicago, and that ought to be some help. Anyway, I am going to sec if they'll take me, because they need a lot of men in that branch of the service." Although I suggested that Nick might find aviation so that he would make it his career after the war, he wasn't so sure about that.

"I don't say I won't change my mind, but right now baseball is in my blood. If I don't make the grade there, I'd like to return to school and qualify for physical education work." When Nick reports at Fort Sheridan Monday, it will mean at least a temporary end to organized baseball for him. There may be a little of it in camp, but he expects to spend most of his time soldiering. Whether he will return to the game afterwards will depend a great deal upon how long the war lasts. He is 21 years old now, and if the war goes on for several years more, he fears it may be next to impossible to make a fresh start.

Kamzic has been with the Olsen Hit Hard But Wins, 3-0 Cub Southpaw Gives Up 11 Hits; Cincy Redlegs Beaten by Phils, 2 to 1 By Jl'DSON BAII.F.Y Associated Press Sports Writer The secret of successful pitching sometimes necm to be luck as much as skill. Tuesday Ray Starr, the lean spellbinder of the Cincinnati Reds, pitched three-hit ball and was beaten, 2-1, by the pitiful Phils because two outfielders collided under a fly ball hit by Pitcher Frank (Rube) Melton and the ball fell for a home run. On the other hand Vein Olsen, the Chicago Cubs' southpaw, wai pummeled for 11 hits by the New York Giants and not only escaped with his sixth straight victory, but scored a shutout, 3-0! Stretcher Out, Too Starr's misfortune came in the fifth inning just after his teammates had given him a 1-0 lend. The 3fi-ycar-old rookie had walked Catcher Benny Warren and then Melton lifted a long fly to left center. Outfielders Max Marshall and Harry Craft raced for it and knocked each other to the ground.

The ball rolled away for a homer and time bad to be railed and stretchers, too before the game could continue. This resulted in Starr being charged with his fifth defeat against a dozen victories and cost Cincinnati a full game's distance against the Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals, both of whom won. At Chicago the Giants got men on base in every inning and made hits in the first eight, but they never were able to break through Olsen for a run. Novikoff Hits Double Dave Koslo, rookie southpaw of the Giants, held the Uruins in check till the fifth when Chico Hernandez singled, Stan Hack was safe on a fumble by Dick Bartell and both runners scored on a long double down the left field foul line by Lou Novikoff.

The Cubs added another run off Bill Lohrman In the eighth when Bill Nicholson opened with a single and scored from third on a scratch single by Hernandez after two were out. At St. Louis Mort Cooper had luck of a different sort. He was batted out of the box for the third time in succession, but the Cardinals rallied spectacularly to beat the Boston Braves, 7-5, in 11 Innings and wipe out what would have been Cooper's fifth setback. A two-run homer by George Kurowski tied the score in the eighth and another two-run circuit clout by Stan Musial settled the affair.

Brooklyn punished' the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-1, with Whitlow Wyatt pitching three-hit ball for his tenth triumph of the year in a night game that drew 21,254 fans at Pittsburgh. Yankees Widen Lead In the American league, the New York Yankees downed the Detroit Tigers, 3-0, on the two-hit hurling of Rookie Hank Borowy and extended their first place margin to six games as the ISoston Red Sox absorbed another the St. Louis Browns, 3-2. The Yanks made only six hits off big Al Benton, but one of these was a triple by Borowy that was good for a run in the third inning and another was a two-run homer by Tom Henrich in the sixth. Boston was held to seven hits by knuckleballer John Niggeling, but made the score close because two of thess were home runs by Lou Finney and Oscar Judd.

Mauriello Gives Musto Bad Beating NEW YORK fU.R) Tami Mauriello, 182, New York, won an eight-round decision from Tony Musto, 206, Chicago, at the Bronx coliseum Tuesday night. Mauriello, who fights Red Bur-man in Madison Square garden July 23, needed only one round to solve Musto's low bobbing style and from then on, it was just a case of how much punishment the Chicagoan could take. Musto was helped by his 24-pound weight advantage.

In the fifth, Mauriello had Musto in trouble but Tony weathered the storm with a cut over his left eye, the only apparent damage done throughout the bout. There were no knockdowns. Bears Hold Record Eau Claire holds the game-win ning record in the Northern Wisconsin league, with 17 straight. The Bears accomplished thii tring this season. Incidentally, American league players tell you if Ted Williams has any weakness, it's against Knuckle-ball elbowing.

Auburn has only two football coaches Jack Meagher and Jim Hitch cock left from last year's staff of seven. The others, as well as the entire basketball staff, are doing it for Uncle Sam now. That came pretty close to being a punch-tossing party in the Empire City jocks room the other day when a couple of "name" riders wanted to work out on a youngster they accused of rough riding. Eddie Arcarp's willing to bet Shut Out knocks off Alsab, Valdina Orphan, Apache or Old Man Mose in the Arlington classic. The way Chicago fans are rooting for Lou Novikoff, don't be surprised if they run him for mayor out there is that okay, Mr.

Coach E. L.

(Curly) Lambeau said that the husky Appleton youth will play at either fullback or blocking back. He is the third backfield man and the 15th player to be signed for the 1942 National Football league campaign. Sample is one of the greatest football players ever turned out at Appleton High. He was a constant threat in Fox River Valley conference games. Although he never played on a championship team at Appleton, even the Green Bay schools were relieved when he graduated.

He started as a ninth-grader and played through his senior year. Played I'nder Spears Following high school. Sample went to Toledo university, where he played under the famous Dr. Clarence W. Spears.

Dr. Spears told Coach Lambeau that Sample proved to be an unusually good bsickfield man, ana snouia mane good in big time professional football. Last season Sample played with the Packers' farm club, the Long Island Indians. The Indians, who were coached by Verne Lewellen, former Packer great, won the champinnhip of their league, with Sample taking an important part. At present Sample is employed at Appleton.

'Jonnn Drake Leaves Professional Football CLEVELAND (Pi Johnny Drake, the Purdue fullback who was an outstanding star in each of his five National 'Football league seasons with the Cleveland Rams announced today he has plaw'd his last foolhall. The 26-year-old Drake star tlConstruction Test WTT XJLiU YOUR CAR FOR All-Star Gridders ANOTHER LETTER comes from Jimmy J. Kulidas at Stevens Point. He says that the Chi Delta Rho fraternity of Central State Teachers college is sponsoring a campaign to place Ted Fritsch on the College All-Star team which will meet the Bears in Chicago.

Fritsch, you recall, has been signed by Coach Curly Lambeau to try out for the backfield with the Packers. Kulidas suggests, and it seems a good idea, that Ted's name be included in any petitions circulated by fans. Folks in this area already are organizing a campaign for Dick Erdlitz, the Northwestern quarterback from Oshkosh. The campaign for votes opened Sunday morning and will continue through July 26. Old College Feud BOBBY LYNCH, the Bluejay prexy, had the pleasure of renewing an old college baseball feud at the All-Star game here this week.

Introduced to William Essick, a New York Yankee scout who was here for the game, Bobby inquired whether he was aware that a certain Essick pitched for the Knox college nine a good many years ago. "I certainly am," the visitor declared, "I'm the' guy! And you're that so and so from Notre Dame." It seems that young Robert Lynch was captain and coach as well as shortstop for the Irish team that season. Knox, with Essick as captain and pitcher, came over one day for a game, and the Irish won principally because of a ball that was lost in the crowd. The Knox team went home and immediately issued a challenge for a return game. Knox won that one, because according to Lynch the umpire was a crook.

Green Bay Blucjays since the latter part of the 1940 season, when he played in the last 20 games. He declared that he has enjoyed playing here, although he wishes he could have "done better." "Green Bay is big league stuf," he asserted, and he ought to know because he comes from Chicago. "We have a grand ball park here, excellent facilities and everything we could expect. The setup here is just like Double A ball. "The ball players are treated right.

You can just ask anybody who's ever gone from here to some other dub. They'll always tell you that you can't beat Green Bay." As for Red Smith, the Bltieiav manaoer "anybody who doesn't work his head off for him isn't fit to play baseball!" Red, Nick insisted, has been a good influence on him, as well as on other players. He hopes his sergeant is going to turn out to be one-tenth as agreeable. Nick was 21 years old last December. He has a brother somewhat older who is in the army at Seattle, Wash.

Thursday the Green Bay fans are going to give Nick a little special recognition. That's no more than right, because he has done a fine job here, both as a player and as an example of what is desired in American youth. The Blucjays meet Wisconsin Rapids here Thursday night, and sometime during the latter innings Nick will receive a purse made up by his friends and boosters. Anyone wishing to have a part in this by contributing a small amount of cash may get in touch with any of the club directors, or they may call the Bluejay office at Howard 4259. The Press Gazette sports department also is willing to cooperate.

i Set for Thursday City finals in the sandbox construction contest are to be held at Bay beach Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Winners from each supervised city playground will construct their sand figures in competition. The youngsters will be allowed 30 minutes to finish their work, and will be given plenty of space and wet sand behind a rope to keen pivnv cnrinn npctator.
