[ I SAID 1 6000 ^ M0RMHJ6 r EVERVOME'SJ AFRAID OF / LW 006 J By Leo KleU By Jeff Htjei -m SILENT SAM 1 BASEBALL FOR IOSEF The Army and Navy journal pro poses that baseball be introduced to Russia. It would equip and uniform 1,000 Russian teams in the belief this would be one sure way to cre ate a spirit of good will and make the Russians a little less tense. ? This may be the best suggestion of postwar times. A world series be tween Moscow and Petrograd might cure the crustiness. It might even soften up Pravda. Certainly Mo lotov would not be the same dif ficult guy if he had a season In the bleachers. And does anybody think Gromyko would be the killjoy that be is if he could get an afternoon now and then at a crucial series? ? We are for baseball on the Volga. It would be O.K. up to the time when a home-run swatter got too big a public following or a star pitcher got his picture in the papers above that of Joe Stalin. ? Of course baseball in Russia would present some difficulties. Would the Soviets stand for any home-run hitter being called a "king"? Will the three strikes and out rule be subject to a veto? Will the base on balls, being a demo cratic institution, be ruled out as capitalistic? ? Isn't there a possibility that any team that licked Moscow in a series would be liquidated? ? Suppose Joe Stalin likes Minsk to cop a pennant and the Pinsk club takes it? ? If Joe thinks a player is safe at first and the decision is that he is out by a mile can the umpire es cape being sent to the salt mines? ? I Suppose the Russian baseball teams have a bad season and Stalin wants some big hitters and fast run ners from American lend-lease? ? Could there be any hope of peace if Stalin arranged to go to Teheran for a crucial conference with Larry MacPhail and Leo Durocher? ? ? ? What? No Reason For Nervousness? "No good reason for the break in stock prices and the current nervousness could be found."?News Item. It couldn't be that reconversion is still behind the eight ball, that there's an ultimatum in every pot and two border incidents in every garage, that strikes are in flower again, that the adimintstration recently set a course for Newfoundland and wound up in Bahama, and that meat, shirt tails, peace and brotherly love are to continue shorter, could it? ? FOOTBALL is moving in the direo ? tion of its record year. I am re ferring here to class and talent from over 40 football states. There has been no season before that could show as many fast and powerful teams, due partly to returning G.I.s from the various battlefields of the world. Any one team that can finish this season unbeaten must call on a miracle. There are too many who are good. For example we might as well take up the matter of All-America backs, we Drougnt this argument up before a group of coaches recently. "That's simple enough," one of them said. "Why not pick Blanchard, Davis, Wedemey er and Gilmer?" "It isn't quite that simple," we countered. "What johnLuJaek about Fenimore, Buddy Young and Trippi? What about Tucker of Army or Justice of North Carolina? What about the best back on Michigan, Ohio State or Indiana? Or Patterson of Illi nois? What about the pick from Notre Dame and Pennsylvania or Columbia, or one or two from the Southwest, including Texas and Mis souri? Certainly Notre Dame should come up with a challenger from the group Frank Leahy has in tow, perhaps Johnny Lujack." "If anyone is trying to pick the four best," another coach said, "why not put eight names in a hat and pick out the first four?" "Which eight?" I asked. "Well," the answer came, "here are seven anyway ? Blanchard, Davis, Wedemeyer, Fenimore, Gil mer, Trippi and Buddy Young. You dig up the other." Columbia's Backs You can imagine how the argu ment will be in late November. For example, it might surprise many camp followers from the strong Midwest and the strong South to know that Lou Little at Columbia may end up with a better all-around backfield than Notre Dame, Michi gan, Indiana, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia and Texas. The line isn't there but the backs are, headed by Rossides, Kusserow and the bril liant passer Kasprzak, rated by Lou on a par with Luckman and Gover nali. With two big tackles, Columbia could give Army, Alabama or Notre Dame an even scrap. But the line is still the front wall. It is the ad vance post. And Columbia so far hasn't the line needed to face such a schedule. My guess is that Army has the best first - line backfield in foot ball, with something to spare. This backfield, in addition to Blanchard and Davis, includes a brilliant quar terback and a fine passer in young Tucker. You'll hear a lot more about Tucker this fall than you ever heard before. He can move right up with Blanchard and Davis. Alabama, Columbia and Okla homa A. and M. have" all-around backfield strength above the nor mal. So has Illinois with an attack headed by Young and Patterson, two of the best. I believe the strongest lines are at Illinois, Yale, Notre Dame and Alabama. Notre Dame may have the best of the lot, but Yale isn't far behind. Alabama has a great center in Mancha, one of the best in many years. Illinois possesses top guards and Notre Dame has the best looking tackles. Oklahoma, Yale Lines It might be added here that the Oklahoma A. and M. line is one of the best ? a point Wally Butts of Georgia might remember for their October meeting. Yale's line is strong from end to end. Texas has all-around strength, backfield and line, and should be hard to handle in the country's major state. The two best ends of the year should belong to Army in Barney Poole and Foldberg, veterans around 218 pounds who know what it is all about. They will have to be better than good with the tackle problem Army faces. Some squad may have two better ends than Army's big, experienced pair?but I doubt it. Among the major teams the big guess is Navy. Capt. Tom Hamil ton, undoubtedly the savior of col lege football through war years, is as good a coach as you'll meet anywhere. But Navy has lost more ? good men than any team in the country. The group of supposed stars under Swede Hagberg two years ago have either graduated, flunked or resigned. Hamilton has little left from that old crew?Kelly, Scott, Minisi, Jenkins, Ellsworth, on and on, are all gone. Most of the Navy line is missing. But Hamilton still has good football players left, not too many, but enough to give any team a busy afternoon. Navy took the major rap in post war football. Where most of the oth ers were getting their former stars back. Navy was taking a heavy def icit. Navy may lose many games. More than two or three. But these games will be fought to the last ptay with Tom Hamilton in charge. The uneasiness wouldn't have a thing to do with the tact that Gro myko is still talking . . . that the only industry without bottlenecks is the holdup industry . . . that the victors in the global war trust one another less than they did Hitler? that general snafu has reached a new high in America and that there are increasing signs that the Amer ican public regards the Four Free doms as (1) freedom of the daily double; (2) freedom to mob any de praved criminal for his autograph; (3) freedom to operate a black mar ket in choice steaks; (4) freedom to dope out a newer and screwier pro gram with audience participation. * Nervousness? Uneasiness? A re turn of the jitters? Well, possibly it has something to do with the fact that the world seems on Are, brass knuckles are becoming compulsory equipment in diplomacy, peace in Europe doesn't even look like a good show bet, labor and capital are still demonstrating new wrestling grips, you can't get a new auto except on a radio quiz program, nine more I well-known Americans have be come newspaper columnists. Rus sia still has the veto power, a cou ple aged 86 eloped the other day. 226 more strikes threatened east of the Rockies and Fala is back in the news! ? ? ? Pettigrew the Penguin says: "jimmy byrnes promised the ger mans a two ear-mirage and a chick en in every potsdam." ? Add similes: She was as bejew eled as if she had just helped launch a ship. ? ? ? Mrs. Olive Dionne has given birth to e baby boy. Two doctors and a (reined nurse were on hand. Dr. Dafoa't tpirit must be enjoying quite a hearty laugh. e e e A Miss Elayne Keenan has been chosen "Miss C.I.O." in Detroit. John L. Lewis, the former C.I.O. beauty, is now, it seems, with the . A.F. of L. Delegate! from nine netionr ere on the way to the L'nited \ationj tettion in Flush ing, N. F, which hat been postponed. And in view of the Irucir strike it it doubtful if enough ice can be hauled to keep them 30 days. e e e The auto industry claim that the unions haven't a leg to stand on seems pretty well blasted.
