Slain 286 NEWLY REDECORATED JTODAY THURSDAY "GAY SISTERS" BARBARA STANWYCK GEO. BRENT Co-Fealure "HELLO ANNAPOLIS" Tem Brown Parker ALSO NEWS TWO LEAGUES TO Bob Feller MEET TOGETHER Problem Is Helping Phils I A greatest war-time contest which matched the of the major league all-star game against the outstanding players from service teams, was junket Wednesday at the annual majoi league convention. American and National league officials awarded the 1943 all-stai game to Philadelphia on July 7 but declined to consider matching the inter-league winner against a combination selected from the nation's army camps and naval sta tions. William Harridge, president of the American league, said there would be "one and only one all- star game in 1943." "That second all-star contest last season was something special," he said, "and could not be put on again." The all star-sen-icemen's game Cleveland's huge municipal stadium drew a crowd of 62,094 fans and receipts approximated $115,000. The American league team defeated "the soldier and sailor combination 5 to 0.

The came brought back to the diamond for a brief encore such outstanding ars as Bob Feller, Mickey Harris, Johnny Ritrney, Benny McCoy, Cecil Travis and Don Padeett. With the heavy enrollment major league players in the armec forces in recent months it was he- lieved that the game would be a fixture for the duration, but the game now is "dead" unless the army and navy ask the majors to reconsider their decision. The National and American leagues plan to end their separate sessions Wednesday and hold a joint meeting Thursday. The National league is wrestling with the problem of reorganizing the debt-ridden Piiila- delphia Phils. Ford Frick, National league president, said "progress was being made" on the case.

"Establishing a satisfactory valuation on the franchise is one of the big problems," Frick said, 'and I believe we'll be able to arrive at that before we leave here. We've narrowed the possible solutions of the problem to three plans now and intend to explore each of those fully." It was indicated that final settlement may be delayed until the league meeting at New York in February. So that men thoroughly familiar with the problem would remain in charge of the study, the usual election of the league's Koard of directors was postponed. Bill Terry, who resigned Monday as director of the New York 3iants' minor league farm system, continued to be mentioned prom- nently in connection with an executive position with the reorganized Phils. Frick said Terry had not been 'officially mentioned" in connection with any of the settlement iroposals now under considera- ion, but admitted "Memphis Bill" had been a key figure in one plan submitted to the league directors.

CONGRESSTOAID SANDLOT TEAMS CHICAGO. (U.RJ--The National Semi-pro Baseball Congress Wednesday adopted wartime measures, seeking to enlarge the role of teams in keeping baseball alive through the war.
