DAILY OFFICIAL Dr. Frederick

IT WAS about a half hour before game time at Briggs Stadium when the
the fellow in front of us started talking about Lefty Grove.
"You know," he said, "it'll be a great day for baseball when 'Old Man
Mose' wins his 300th ball game."
We agreed.
"But," he continued, "it really isn't so much of an accomplishment after
all when you consider that 11 other guys did it before."
Old Lefty was our boyhood idol and we couldn't let him get away
with that. "All of the other 300 winners had a dead ball to hurl around,"
we retorted, "and Mose is the only one who had to fling the lively ball
throughout his career. And besides (by this time we were already get-
ting a little angry), there's only been five other guys to win that many
games in modern times.
T HE FELLOW IN FRONT OF US opened his record book and looked up
the figures. "Yeah, here they are," he said, "Cy Young, Walter Johnson,
Christy Mathewson, Grover Cleveland Alexander and Eddie Plank."
(No. 1 flinger in the history of baseball, incidentally, is Denton T. (Cy)
Young, who pitched more games than any of his colleagues (874) and won
more than any of them (511), He pitched three no-hitters-in one of them
not a man reached first base-and won more than 20 games in each of 14
consecutive seasons.)
"This reminds me of a story that happened to me," the fellow in
front of us said. "I was driving home from a World Series game in Cin-
cinnati when I got a bit tired and drove up to a diner for a cup of coffee.
There were two other guys in the place and in a few seconds we started
talking about baseball.
"THE LITTLE GUY behind the counter didn't say much," he went on,
"but the big guy in overalls kept up a steady chatter.. But shucks, I've
seen every World Series game for 15 years and know a lot about the trade-
especially pitching-and I wasn't going to let any big hick farmer tell me
what was going on.
Well, anyway, finally this big guy goes out and as soon as he leaves the
little guy behind the counter opens his mouth. 'You've got a heck of a lot
of nerve talking to him like that,' the little guy says, 'that was Cy Young'."
But before we could even chuckle at our friend's embarrassment
he started talking again.
"CY YOUNG came back in a few minutes later and turned out to be a
pretty swell egg. We started talking about Grove and Cy told me that
the 'kid' was going places. (Mose, by the way, is 41 years old.) But Cy said
that no one would ever break his record, not even Feller, because in the old
days the pitchers used to get out there on the mound about four times a
week and as a result had the chance to win a lot of games."
And there our conversation ended and the ball game began.

Says Schools
Are Doing Job
Vocational Training Work
Important To Defense,
Educator Declares
"In these days of a gigantic world
crisis, the responsibilities of second-
ary schools in the United States are
greater than they have ever been
before," claimed Dr. Orie I. Frederick
yesterday in University High School
Auditorium.
Dr. Frederick continued his talk on
"What Secondary Schools in the
United States Are Doing Today" by
saying that many schools throughout
the nation are meeting the challenge
of a world crisis magnificently. Num-
erous other schools are getting a
vision of, the vast responsibilities
which face education today.
During the past year the schools of
the nation have given direct voca-
tional defense training to approxi-
mately one million youth and adults.
This huge vocational defense train-
ing program is now being expanded
even more.
An increasing number of secondary
schools in all parts of the United
States are giving special attention to
the following as they can aid national
defense: understanding of and loyalty
to the principles of democracy; ap-
preciation of the progress and great
achievements of our nation, democra-
cy in action in school; cultural ap-
preciation and national unity; inter-
American understanding and friend-
ship; health and safety; conservation
and development of natural resources;
development of ability to meet new
situations efficiently.
Teachers, supervisors, and school
administrators can borrow packets of
very helpful materials without cost
from Information Exchange on Edu-
cation and National Defense, U.S.
Office of Education, Washington,
D.C. The packets contain approxi-
mately 150 to 200 pages. They in-
clude pamphlets and bulletins de-
scribing what can be done and what
is being done in schools in all parts
of the United States to aid national
defense.

The War Department announced a major snuffling of high-ranking
officers which included: Major General Frank M. Andrews (upper
right), commander of the Caribbean air defense, to replace Lieut. Gen.
Daniel Van Voorhis (upper left) as head of the entire Caribbean
defense command and the Canal Zone. Van Voorhis will take command
of the fifth corps area with headquarters at Columbus, O. Major Gen-
eral Jacob L. Devers (lower right) commander of the ninth division at
Fort Bragg, N. C., will replace Major General Adna R. Chaffee (lower
left) as commander of the armored forces. Chaffee has been granted
sick leave.
