DETROIT The Detroit Tigers announced Saturday the signing of Manager Steve O'Neill to a new one-year contract, thus ending speculation over whether the rotund former major league catcher would be back for a second term. Salary figures were undisclosed. ONeill, whose home is in Cleveland, will join General Manager Jack Zeller of the Tigers New York Monday to begin negotiations at the baseball meetings for 1944 playing talent. The Tigers are down to 25 players and several of these are headed for the armed forces.

The 52-year-old O'Neill, who served a previous two-and-a-half-year managerial term with the Cleveland Indians, led the Tigers in 1943 to 78 victories and 76 defeats, the clubs best recoixi in three seasons. However, thd Tigers faded in September and finished fifth in the American league. The Tigers report to ONeill March 14 at Evansville.

Here lanky end Dave hu, called to servile right end, had broken through and spilled Glenn Davis on the Army 10 before he could get rid of the ball on a pass play. Navy, which had been regarded as far slower than the Army speed merchants, amazed the experts by out-gaining the Cadets, 220 yards to 75 by rushing. And the Sailors, who were expected to take to the air, to match Armys touted speed, attempted only 10 forwards and completed but one.

Meanwhile Army went into the air desperately in the second half and wound up with seven completions in 18 attempts for a gam of 57 yards. Army looked formidable in the first half. The Cadets twice invaded Navy territory in the first period, advancing to the 33 and to the 46. In that initial session. Navy got into Aimy tenitory but once, reaching the 37-yard line wheie the ball was lost on a fumble.

And in the second period, the Gobs never moved onto Soldier turf, although the Cadets manged to reach Navys 33. Hamberg Proves Class. The Cadets excellent first half showing delighted that half of the Cadet corps wh'ich was permitted to cheer for the Aimy team. The other half of the coips slightly more than 1.200 lads had been lend-leased for the day to serve as a Navy cheering section. The pseudo-Navy yellers seemed a bit weak-lunged in the first half.

Hal Hamberg played a great game, as was expected although he resorted little to aerial tactics; but it was Fullback Hillis Hume of Alliance, Ohio, whom most of the crowd will remember. He tore through the Army forward walli like a juggernaut, shaking off, tacklers of battering them back I for yards. Joe Red Sullivan came into Navy's backfield the last period and also gave the fans an unexpected exhibition of yard-! age-eating on the ground. Victory in this 44th meeting of, the two service schools gave the! Sailors their 19th triumph of the series. Army has won 22 times; and they tied three games.

Saturdays select crowd included the wives of two army generals vi ho have been prominent in the( news Mrs. Dwight Eisenhower and Mrs. George Patton. The game probably maiked the end of Capt. John E.

A.1 Stagg's College of the Pacific eleven provided the navy department grants permission for the Tigers to travel to the coast. White is only two years out of the high school coaching game. He won success as a prep mentor at Salida, and at Nampa, Idaho. IGHT out of the mail pouch comes the feature picture for this weeks GI, same being that old football-playing product of "Wilson, high school and now a second looey in Uncle Sam's marines, Al Urban. The marine corps took the picture of Al upon the occasion of his being commissioned at Quantico, Va.

The best minds around here say Urban is shooting a signal pistol which sends flares up, but the conductor of this column is forced to confess that it looks more like an Eighteenth century pirate's side-arm. Urban went into the marines after receiving his B.A. degree at the University of Iowa, where he played a lot of tackle on the Hawkeye varsity. An-, other news release from service camps brings word that Pete Rudish, the Kenwood boy who reached the finals in the middleweight boxing championship at Camp Fannin, Texas, lost the title in the finals to Pvt. Leonard Snyder of Flood-wood, Minn.

Rudish figures to be on the post team which takes part in the Fort Worth, Texas, Golden Gloves. And that stinker Eddie Mack, a cook at Camp Peary, sent along the Thanksgiving menu for the Seabees there, just to make this old cannibals mouth water. It included olives, radishes, stuffed celery with pineapple cheese, turkey soup, roast turkey, old-fashioned corn meal dressing with sausage, giblet gravy, buttered cauliflower, green peas with celery, celery and fresh shrimp salad on lettuce leaf, hard rolls, sweet butter, ice cream, hot mince pie, coffee and cigarets. What was it Sherman said about i ITS A SMALL WORLD Down at Camp Hood. Texas, the chap pictured herewith is a captain in the tank destroyer service headquarters.

He is Capt. Bernie Smith, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Smith of Cedar Rapids and a former star athlete at Coe college before the lure of the army got him and he followed up R.O.T. C.

with army service. Anyway, he was looking through the list of available second looeys while picking men for a new outfit and ho should he spot on the list but Bill Diehl, also of Cedar Rapids. Smith picked Bill for one of his, subordinates. Home last week. Smith recalled helping teach Bill the rudiments of football over on the west side.

When we used to run through the gates for the games at Coe. Smith, recalled, there used to be a gang of kids hanging around the gate. We'd take them by the hand and get them into the games free with us. Bill was one of those kids. Smith terms Camp Hood the toughest in the country, adding: We shoot up more ammunition down there training men than any other camp.

When we get done with em, they can shoot everything from a pistol to a cannon. That's what Diehl said, too, when he was home, THE MAIL BAG New on the GI list is Bud McGuire, the old softball chucker, who starts light off with a North Afiican plug: After le-ccivmg one of vour GI Gazette columns I thought I should let vou know that it has the okay of my chums and myself. Even though the other fellows are from other states they appreciated it. After being out of circulation for so long I get quite a kick out of hearing about what the local boys are doing. George Gable walked in on me the other day after making connections through the Red Cross.

We had quite a bull session and are planning to get together again. Our squadron was pretty proud of our softball record. Since November, 1942, we had played iq eight different countries without a defeat. Then came N. Africa and a 3-0 setback.

And let me say there is nothing as discouraging as to lose when everybody and his brother in the outfit is backing you with GI dough. Our season is finished now. It's still warm enough to play but it gets dark too early. We have swell entertainment every Sunday evening in the form of mixed boxing bouts between the Limies and Yanks. Sometimes a few Arabs and lpcal French participate.

The matches are on a with the Golden Gloves finals in Cedar Rapids And dont think that a crowd of 4,000 soldiers and sailors can't raise the roof. All you have to do to get a bet is to wave your francs at a Britisher and holler that youll take the Yank. However, one evening after the Yanks had won seven of eight fights we had to angle quite a little bit to get an even bet. In closing, I wish to remind you to prompt the paper boy. as The Gazette doesn't seem to arrive as quickly as it did at home From the other side of the world another touring softball player, Otta Honk Thor-son.

a baker in the navy, breaks the ice. to-wit: You won't recognize me as a sports luminary around the old home town but some of the folks will remember me as the guy that used to stumble around first bae for the Armstrong team at Ellis park. Maybe you could call me Eggs Noble' successor because I took over when Eggs retired. I sure had a big surprise when I reached this far off place. I met an old Roosevelt high star, namely Ray Slip Hamad.

We sure enjoy reading together about all our old friends in the GI Gazette. Especially do we enjoy following Lt. Donald Wolfe of the navy, our old coach and a grand fellow. How we both would like to have him for our own C. O.

I can bet he a good one and gets his order carried out on the double As a finisher, wrote: Don't bet too strongly on the National league entry in the World Series. I am an American league man. He didn't need to add that last line. Roy McHugh's latest reveals that he won't get a furlough until May, They put the names in a hat and his was the last one out. He passe along congratulations to the Wilson high gridders and Coach Bill Barnard.

LOOKING BACK Feature of the annual South Side Civic club sports program last week was the tribute paid a baseball team of 25 years ago and one individual member of that team in prticular by Bob VeseJy, chairman of the sports awards committee.

er, Mike Gallagher, Jimmy Dunn and Murray Robertson. The Warfield team was formed in 1915 and played its last game on Aug. .19, 1923, at Garrison. Returning from that game, the team figured in an auto accident and, Liddle was killed. Of that tragedy, Vesely said: The love and respect of the rest of the members of the team for Liddle was the reason the team disbanded after his death, for the Garrison game was the last as a Warfield team.

Of Liddles ability, Vesely said: He was without doubt one of the outstanding center-fielders in the semi-pro baseball in Cedar Rapids. He was not a powerful hitter but an exceptionally good man on fly balls. He had a wonderful throwing arm, was tremendously fast as a base runner and a good thinker. He threw and batted lefthanded. Liddle was also a member of the crack YMCA basketball team of 1916-17 which won the city title.

On that team, too, were Geoige Liddle, Jim Ross, Harold Kasner, Bert Aston, Bill Wage and Vesely. Ross and GeoiRe Liddle weie all-staters at Washington high school but John Liddle, star guard on the team, never had benefit of coaching. HOME FRONT DOPE evv coroner Is Dr. T. F.
