Pre urns Grid Sportcaster For U. of M. Game Former Local Boy Don Wattrick. born In Battle Creek in 1905 and who attended public schools here, stepped forth last Saturday as one of the state's leading sportcasters. He handled detailed play of the Michigan-Great Lakes naval training station team at Ann Arbor, won by the Wolverines.

9 to 0. Wattrick made a few slips as did most of the announcers handling the game. It was confusing fo them to link nrmes like Bruce Smith with Great Lakes and some of the. other luminaries, who have starred professionally in recent years, with that team. He called the invaders the Gophers at one time and the Green Bay Packers another time.

The announcer moved to Lansing before completing his education here and starred in all branches of athletics at Lansing Central high. He later starred while attending Central State at Mt. Pleasant and since graduation has coached at Lansing Central. Chesaning and Bay City, his work in the latter city winning him the Detroit job. While WELL will not carry detailed play of this year's baseball classic, scores of the Cardinal-Yankee games as well as highlights of them will be given every few-minutes starting Wednesday afternoon.

Mutual is carrying the detailed play exclusively. Odds and Ends Dept. Four Fold Gospel will be on this afternoon, 5:15 to 5:30 and again Thursday. 11:45 a. m.

to noon: William Green. AFL president and Philip Murray. CIO leader, will discuss "Th Union's Part in the Scrap Drive" Wednesday night AVON at the award of medals to Midway fliers will be aired over WELL this afternoon at 4. Home industries in India now supply 85 percent of its surgical instrument leeds. ELL U00 WLW TOO WMAQ 670 WJR RADIO I NEW YORK UP) Narrowly mixed price moves served to cloud the general course of today's stock market.

While scattered favorites managed to edge forward at the opening, steels and motors inclined to falter. Activity dwindled near midday. Bonds were as uneven as shares. Commodities followed a slim groove. While rail stocks were virtually unchanged.

Santa Fe posted another five-year top by a minor advance. Selling of gold mining issues dried ud. Dome recovered a I shade and Komestake held a de cline to a negligible amount. American Telephone, Union Carbide and North American exhibited resistance. LOCAL MARKETS LIVESTOCK fCourtesv Stile Co Hoes 20-25.

The greatest blow to the Nipponese air forces during the activity commencing September 25, was struck in the Solomons where 42 planes were shot down and three others damaged, the navy department said. Navy and marine corps fighters bombed four ships, setting a cruiser afire and probably sinking a transport and ruined Japanese gun emplacements.

Without loss of a single U. S. plane, the American forces bombed a Japanese cruiser and a seaplane tender, and shot down three seaplanes at Tonolei harbor on September 25; destroyed six more enemy seaplanes, damaged a seventh, hit a cruiser and probably sank a transport near Shotland island on September 26. The following day they blasted four bombers and five fighter planes of an attacking Japanese squadron over Guadalcanal. Intercept 25 Bombers Continuing their attacks yesterday, the American air forces successfully intercepted 25 Japanese bombers which were accompanied by 18 Zero fighters and were headed for marine installations on Guadalcanal.

The navy and marine fighter planes destroyed 23 of the enemy bombers and one Zero and forced the others to jettison their bombs into the sea. About 6.000 miles northward, army airmen accompanied for the first time by Canadian planes, raided the Japanese footholds on the Aleutians. Seven enemy planes were destroyed, a transport left in flames, two submarines strafed and an estimated 150 Japanese killed or wounded in a low-level attack on Kiska. After heavy army bombers raided enemy installations on the Island with unobserved results on September 24. the navy announced yesterday, a strong force of army bombers and pursuit planes accompanied by Royal Canadian Air Force ships, attacked again on the following cay.

Direct bomb hits on one of two transports or cargo ships in the harbor set the vessel afire and it was beached and listing badly when last observed. The attack pushed the total of Japanese ships sunk or damaged in the Aleutians to 33 since the enemy raid on Dutch Harbor, June 3.

What good are higher prices if a farmer can't harvest his crop? Mail Flow Begins How was this reflected in congress? About six weeks aso. as the harvest season increased the pinch, congressional mail began to bulge with pleas from farmers: -My son has been drafted and I will be forced to sell my farm." "Three hands quit for $1 50-an-hour jobs in the city.

What am I going to do?" "I tried to get my hired man deferred, but lie draft board wouldn't do it. Can't you do something in Washineton?" Jittery congressmen, up for reelection this year, just didn't know the answers. Nor was there any proposal pending in congress, any single vehicle to which they could tie. to show the farmer that they were doing their best to solve his problem. Then came Mr.

Roosevelt's message on price control. Inflation and farm labor are not very closely related, but Mr. Roosevelt's message tied them together. First, the President said that the legal minimum ceiling on farm prices was too high and congress should reduce It. Second, the President sought to soften the blow by discussing agricultural production costs and added that thev should -include the cost of labor." Congressmen took that to mean farm labor and rushed to get on the bandwagon.

Here was the vehicle they had been looking for! Twenty-four hours later an anti-inflation bill was introduced in the house, which carried a provision requiring that farm labor costs be considered. Twenty-four hours after that Mr. Roosevelt wrote a letter to congress and said he hadn't meant the "cost of farm labor," but the cost of industrial labor. That was two weeks ago and the repercussions haven't died down yet. Who Wrote It? The best guess in Washington Is that Mr.

Roosevelt did not have exact knowledge of every word that was in his Labor Day message. If a wartime President is the actual author of half that goes into his spcerhes and state papers, he has a high percentage. He is just too burdened to write them, and that is why more congressmen didn't charge that Mr. Roosevelt had "backed down." His "out" was admittedly a thin one. but few members tried to take direct advantage of it.

On the other hand, however, the letter produced no noticeable descent from the "farm labor" bandwagon. There was also an ironical side to it all. It is doubtful that the "farm labor" provision would have ever got into the price control legislation, had not the question been raised in the President's message. Not Rep. Paul Brown of Georgia, not Senator Elmer Thomas of Oklahoma, but whoever wrote the phrase into Mr.

Roosevelt's message was the real author of the provision. Agricultural exjiert.s can't recall a single time that such a proposition was ever advanced in congress that is, until that five-word phrase appeared in the President's message. In the house, there were 13 men who could see the collision coming 1 and who tried desperately to prevent it. Organized by two youthful members of congress. Reps.

Albert Gore of Tennessee and Mike Monroney of Oklahoma, the group met quietly one night two weeks ago at the Washington home of Rep. Charles Dewey, an Illinois Republican. All present were members of the house banking committee, which was considering the legislation, and they didn't like the bill as drafted. So they drafted a new one satisfactory to the administration and omitted the farm labor provision. Talking Point Needed They won their fight in the banking committee, but they lost it later on the floor of the house when the provision was restored.

Why couldn't thev stem the tide: why didn't the President's letter turn the trick? The answer is that the harassed agricultural members of congress had to get on record for something that would at least make a talking point on the farm labor problem in their campaigns for reelection. Few members, exchanging views in the cloakrooms, thought thev were help-iiiK solve either inflation or the maniiower question. The whole question of manpower is the coining issue in Washington. Go to any member of congress, any official of the government, and he will tell you that not only is the labor shortage in the agricultural districts serious, but that it Is even worse in the industrial centers. Philadelphia needs 100.000 men: Detroit.

60.000: Baltimore, 40.000. etc labor shortages in 35 cities, in fact. Go to General Her.shey. the national dralt director, and lie will tell you what a headache the draft Is proving to him how difficult it is to measure the needs of the armed forces, how cumbersome is the operation of deferment, how unwieldly is the entire draft machinery. Add the complaints all up.

Skidmore Ac Son are the contractors for the present conversion work and Iewis J. Sarvis is architect. Contracts for the additional work will be awarded soon. First plans called for use of two floors of the main building as hos pital space for oflicers. the balance to be devoted to quarters for nurses and bachelor officers, and for offices.

Now. the 11th. 12th. and 13th floors still will be used to house personnel, but the other floors, aside from the main floor and second floor, whirh are devoted to offices, the dining room and kitchen, will be converted into hospital space. Plan 12 barrack Three barracks wiil be built for nurses and one for bachelor officers.

In addition, there will be eight barracks for enlisted personnel, instead of four as previously planned. East hall has been remodeled to house 175 enlisted men. Erection of the barracks will call for razing of the brick warehouse on Hill street and some of the cottages formerly used by the Sanitarium, which are located in the block where the outdoor swimming pool stands. The pool will not be removed, however. Nine floors of the main building will be converted into hospital space to contain 700 beds.

An additional 800 will be located in the old building and the two wings to rear of the old builidng which formerly housed the men's and women's physiotherapy departments ol the Sanitarium and swimming pools. The enlarging program will materially increase the personnel required. There will be between 130 and 140 nurses. Instead of 105 as previously planned, with nurses' aides making a total nursing stalf of about 200: enlisted personnel will be increased from some 400 to about 600: there will be about 100 officers instead of 70. and the hospital will employ between 500 and 600 civilian workers.

Compare Figures An Idea of the magnitude of the hospital, when completed and in operation, may be gained from some comparative figures and estimates of operating costs. Percy Jones hospital, when completed, will have about five times as many beds as Battle Creek's three other hospitals. Community. Leila and Osteopathic, combined. Community has 124, Leila.

165. and Osteopathic. 21. These figures include basinets. It will require, including fleers, enlisted men.

nurses and their aides and civilian workers, about one person for every patient, to operate the hospital and its facilities, which include laundry, power plant and other maintenance units. Colonel Kirk estimates that it will cost between $4 and $5 per day per patient to operate the hospital, which means that, fully occupied, the institution will operate at a cost of between J6.000 and S7.500 a day. Two elevators will be installed In the main building and Colonel Kirk has asked for tile and brick construction for the barracks if possible. He said he was not certain ol getting this type, however, and they may be wooden frame buildings or structures of some other cheaper construction. With the appropriation for conversion, the hospital still will be less costly and considerably better than would a newly-constructed hospital.

Colonel Kirk stated. With the original cost of the property, plus the conversion costs, the hospital will be completed at a cost of less than 1.500-bed hospital built from the ground up of wooden frame construction would cost about $4,000,000. and a 1.000-bed hospital of brick and tile construction would cost between $4 and Ji.000.-000. the colonel estimated. Staff Being Increased While conversion work is going on.

the staff of Percy Jones general hospital is being built up as fast as possible. At piesent. about 40 officers, most of them medical corps I reserves who represent the best medical talent from every section of I the nation, are on duty, in adrii-' tion to 100 enlisted men. There are i about 150 civilians at work in the hospital. Ba.sic training in military conduct and practice and medical administration is beinz given officers who have entered the army from civilian lite without previous military training, and Monday a school in basic military training for the enlisted men was started.

These schools, both for officers and enlisted men. include military fundamentals, as drilling, conduct, and military etiquet. The playground of Ann J. Kellogg school will be used for drilling by the classes, although the hospital authorities have not yet started using the playground. The classes include I six weeks of intensive training for 1 all military personnel Wednesday WELL A M.

Churchill reported on the British occupation of Madagascar, announcing that he had been informed of the fall of Tulear, the island's last port remaining in French hands. He was expected to make a brief statement soon bringing the house up to date on the progress of the war. Churchill, who rarely has been at a loss for words, told commons "I am afraid I have rather exhausted the possibilities of the English language' in denouncing Pierre Laval. He declined to make any further statement on the government's attitude toward Vichy. He also brushed aside a new suggestion that the RAF bomb Rome.
