SPORT COMMENT (By LONNIE FRANKLIN) {Mr. Baseball They had a big day in Philadelphia recently and renamed Shibe park, “Connie Mack” park, but Mr. Baseball says as long as I live it will be Shibe park. That typifies why Connie Mack is called Mr. Baseball. He has been the manager of the Athletics since 1903 and has his share of rec ords in the American game. They gave Connie about everything but what he wants most—one more win ner, and those A’s, a great cellar team, is now the hottest team up there. RegardOess of what club fans arc partial to, no team in baseball his tory would be a more general fav orite in 1941 than Connie Mack’s Athletics. But that won’t happen, so let’s hope the 70-odd year old leader comes thru next year. Slowly Dying Soft ball is going the way of min iature golf and the players are to blame. Three years ago it was the hottest game in these parts. Now, like a gasping man, it is breathing slow. They gave the game psrblicity, had some big-name baseball players ’in good jobs, then the players began to think they were good' and wanted money for their playing 1 . They also wanted so much publicity that dailies couldn’t carry every game unless ex tra editions were printed, so the pa pers cut down. Now it is back where it is supposed to have been, simply a game for recreation only for the worker and business man in spare time. But the lesson, learned in soft ball will probably ‘save some other game American fans may devise. MISS MACIE DAVIS ENTERTAINS FOR MISS {LANE, BRIDE-ELECT Among the delightful affairs that have een given for Miss Edith Lane, bride-elect, was the party that Miss Made Davis gave in her honor Mon day night.

DRAFT BILL Washington, June 10.—^President Roosevelt would be authorized to de fer compulsory military service for men twenty-eight years of age or old er under legislation which won tenta tive senate approval today. Final action on the measure awaited disposition of amendments to permit the government to take over strike-bound defense plants. A committee recommendation for the deferment authority was accepted on a -voice vote and with little debate. It would apply to men who have reached the age of twenty-eight by July 1, 1941, or on the same date in any subsequent year, and who have not been inducted into the service by that time. The amendment would; not alter present provisions of the law which require all men from twenty-one to thirty-six to be registered and classified. Those deferred because of age could be called ior service later. Senator Hill (Democrat, Alamama), in charge of the bill, told the senate that four-fifths of the draftees were being obtained from- the twenty-one- twenty-eight age group because these were better able to serve from a physical and economic standpoint. Approximately 7,000,000 men reg istered 1 under the selective service would be affected if the president were granted such authority and chose to exercise it. ’ The American dollar bill is going native with nylon or rayon.
