J W V BULLETIN By FRANK BECKMAN NEWS. around the Big Nine's baseball circuit last week wasn't that Michigan and Illinois had tied for the championship. It was that Marvin Rotblatt, brilliant Illini southpaw, had finally lost a Western C o n- ference game. This is not surprising when you con- sider the fact that Rotblatt is just about the best pitcher Beckman ever to toe a Big Nine slab. He has been the Illini's ace hurler for three years and had lost only one contest (non-con- ference) during his tenure. That's why just about every- one was dazed when Ohio State clubbed him for 10 hits and a 6-0 victory. A little guy, Rotblatt has been dishing out two, three and four- hitters with amazing consistency. Observers believe he is sure-fire big league material, and scouts have not let him slip past their eyes. His signature on a contract will be the goal of just about every major league timber seek- er. Friday, June 4, 1944 Gustave M. Berne, left, American Jewish Committee leader, and Jacob Alson, treasurer of the Anti-Defamation League of Bwl Brith, have been named chairmen of the coordinating comumites of the Joint Defense Appeal.
