This decision as reported 1n a statement fiem the committee was the result of the following conditions: "Cancellation of formal intercollegiate schedules by institutions with which contests had been scheduled; use of facilities and coaching personnel by the Army units on the campus; decrease in civilian male enrollment (particularly men with sufficient skill to pai-ticipate in the regular intercollegiate athletic program), and the army regulation which does not allow the service men on the campus to compete in Intercollegiate athletics." Cancellation of present schedules does not mean that competitive sports will be discouraged, says Director Lundholm. Competitive sports will be the backbone of the physical fitness program for the coming year. Students will hae the opportunity to go. out for all sports, and it is hoped that there will be sufficient interest and skill to warrant the scheduling of contests with secondary schools and service teams not too distant from Durham. 2 0 0 0 0 Johnson, lb Hamilton, 2b Ells, If Crowcll, 3b Young, ness in their victory.

The game was called at the end of the first half of the seventh with the score tied at three all and, with Umpire Barter announcing the game had ended in a tie.

The Apprentice now have two wins to one for the soldiers, with three needed for a series victory. The next game will be played tomorrow night at 6 o'clock at the South Playground.

Fights Last Night iBy the Associaetd Press) New York Cleo Shans. 135, Los Dartmouth Faces Hard Grid Task Hanover, Sept. 1 fAP After being rudely disillusioned at the outsat of hi brand new career, Dartmouth's Earl Brown, at 27 one of the youngest head coaches In this wartim- college football, has become reconciled to gaining success the hard way. ul "Before I wi.i olTered this Job, I heard on every side that Dartmouth's Navy V-13 allotment was going to be loaded with experienced football material," said that Notre Dame product who has tutored ends at Brown and Harvard. "There were supposed to be some JO-odd holdovers from last years learn and most of the 1042 Fcrdham squad, along with many Big Ten stars, were reported as being assigned to the Dartmouth marine unit.

Oreally Exaggerated -I soon learned those reports were greatly exaggerated," Brown explained. "Only about 10 of last year's Dartmouth squivdsmen are here now and the contingents from the other colleges were far front being jammed with experienced football players. We really have some splendid material, however, and, providing the boys mastered last week's midterm examinations to the satisfaction of their navy superiors, we should have a real fighting team, Brown continued, "But It wont be any eastern powerhouse and it prob-nblv will suffer defeat or two. I hate to think what it will bo If some of my key players get flunked out when the exam marks are posted, That's been worrying more than a lew of tho players, too." Brown, assisted by Johnny del Isola, iVmer Fordham line star, and Milt Plepul. recent Notre Dame backfleld sensation, has Included the products of 10 different colleges on his first two ranking teams.

New York, Sept. 1 CAP) The public is always what? After the starting gate at Aqueduct busted down Wednesday and the favorite was left at the post in a "flag" start, the racing commission ordered the tracks to have a spare on hand hereafter but that didn't help the customers who had bet nearly 162,000 on Light Lady And while the nght fans still were cheering Henry Armstrong's decision to retire for good after his dismal showing against Ray Robinson, Hank up and decided to go through with one more against Slugger White in Los Angeles because the contract already had been signed Wonder If these fellows ever stopped to think they have an unwritten contract with the public, too with a clause that says "if you can't give the kind of show we pay for, get out?" Al Simmons took his seven year old son for a swing around the American league this summer After watching for some time while his dad either decorated the bench or tried with little success to get a few hits, the youngster asked: "Pop. do you get as much pay as the other players." Simmons allowed that he got about the same as most and maybe a little more than some, then Inquired what prompted the question "Well, I've been watching," said the kid, "and you don't seem to do as much as they do."

F. HUSSEY OPTOMETRIST Robert O. E. Elliot By FRED DOBENS (Today's Sport City Is guest-written for vacationing Bob Kennedy by Fred Dobens of the Nashua Telegraph.) Dear Bob: Ever since Freddie Jones, who once labored in your vineyards, caught me covering a basketball game from the safe distance of a fire station in a soft chair and with a cribbage board in front of me and flouted all union rules by making the fact public, I have been touched to the quick at any mention of Portsmouth. My first thought, when your invitation arrived to write a guest column with no strings attached, was to fire a few broadsides for some of those pop gun barrages you have been turning in this direction since the Year of Harvey.

Incidentally our sports calendar now dates back only as far as the time when the Buzzer arrived in town and started to put you fellows in your place. Since abandoning sports writing, a few years back, I keep the old blunderbuss oiled up only enough to train its sights on Brother Bill Stearns when he gets off the reservation. Sometimes that guy comes too close to the truth to be comfortable and I have to fire a few wild shots to keep him under cover or he would forever be on the rampage. I note you too, occasionally have your troubles with him. Must.

Commiserate However, I cannot resist the temptation to commiserate with you poor people over the sudden lack of rail and bus transportation which reached, an acute stage about the time you were to bring your football team to this city last fall. I was delighted to find that the problem was speedily solved, and that it did not extend beyond the week you were to play in Nashua. Discretion, they say, is the better part of valor and you were most fortunate in uncovering such an alibi because otherwise I fear you would still be licking your wounds. Manchester, Lowell, Haverhill, Chelsea, Springfield, took their lickings (long overdue by the way) and are back on the schedule for more this year. Sports writing has changed a lot in my time, and for the better.

When I started in this business a sports writer probably did as much outside promoting as he did writing and one found it hard to write objectively about" something he was directly interested in. For years I did no other chore than write sports and it is a funny thing but I never got an assignment to cover a World's Series until I had left sports writing behind me. Since then, or to be specific, in four out of the past six years the boss has okayed trips to these games. Once Owned Ball Club All in all it has been a lot of fun and I know of no better way of breaking into the newspaper game, for a fellow, than by way of sports writing. At one time I even owned a ball club in organized baseball.

I still have jitters when I think of the close shave I had. Back in 1930 when Maj. Francis P. Murphy and his backers washed their hands of the New England league after dropping about $10,000 the year before, Claude B. Davidson walked into the office and said that he wanted Nashua in the league again.

To be frank I wanted it, too. The sports writer of the paper got ten bucks a week to act as official scorer and he could pick up about $20 a week selling box scores and-stories of the home games to other papers in cities in the circuit. Davidson, who was a cute one, suggested that I take over the club until he had time to come to Nashua and organize some backing. In a foolish moment I agreed. Right after that came the Nashua fire which leveled one-third of the city.

I wanted to back out then and there. But Davidson ias adamant and by that time players had started to float into the city and I had signed chits for their board and room. So there I was president, treasurer, secretary and lone stockholder of a ball club. I was the only stockholder because I couldn't sell a dime's worth of stock. In so deep I figured I might as well go the entire way.

I hired "Shono" Collins as manager; not a bad choice either. The next year he was hired to manage the Boston Red Sox. Before the season opened I found myself owing $300 for room and board and other incidentals; but the gods were with me. The first week of the season the team played away from home. It played Manchester, Lewiston and Portland and the guy I sent along as business manager came back with $500 after paying all traveling expenses.

Believe me, I paid up the outstanding bills in a hurry. Folded Quickly The season wasn't a week old when I knew the league would fold at any moment. The Monday of the final week there arrived at the office 24 dozen baseballs, a donation made by the Spalding company to all organized baseball clubs. Portland played on a Monday night and Lewiston Tuesday and then the league folded. We made a little over expenses each night and with the money I received from the sale of the baseballs I paid off the ball players every dime due them.

The la3t check $144.60 went to Shono Collins. From then on I decided sports promoting was too wearing and tearing on the system and I stuck to sports writing until a few years ago when I left it without too much regret. Don't ever let anybody interest you in sports promoting, Bob. The job Is tough enough just sitting on the sidelines. Hope you enjoy your vacation.

1 BAKER'S 15 Daniels St. Tel. 350 Have a "Coke" Cead Mile Failte Some people think the fishing is all washed up in New Hampshire and Maine for the rest of the year. That is where they have the wrong impression. Here are a few sportsmen who believe otherwise: Dr.

Harold Pierson of Hampton, Mrs. Pierson; Dr. George Parker of Portsmouth and several other anglers will leave town Thursday night by train for the heart of Maine to enjoy smallmouth bass fishing. Lennox Bigelow. outdoor editor of The Springfield, Mass, Union will visit Long Tom Currier at First Connecticut lake for the trout and salmon fishing, beginning Labor day weekend and continuing his angling throughout the following week.

Percy Angwin of the Barre, Vermont Dally Times, will call on Long Tom Currier over Labor day, after fishing at Averill lakes in his own state, the day previously. His companion will be Don Smith, former Vermont commission chairman. Percy has returned from a five day trip to Rat river, P. the lucky dog where he had excellent trout fishing. He says trout took surface flies well.

Horace Tapply has been bass fishing in central New Hampshire and will try his luck again in a week or two. (Tapply is editor of Outdoors magazine.) These men know that the fall of the year compares with the spring for lively action in the fishing game. Bass come to life. Trout, togue and salmon take flies. Striped bass continue to hit lures all through this month and at least part of October.

So, the theme still remains: Get in there and fish. Ends Maine Tour Boothbay Harbor, Sept. 1 A five-day inspection tour of the Maine fishing industries was completed Sunday by Wayne D.
