"We'll have lots oi opportunities to discove new baseball talent,” he said. i .

Senator Chandler was here to attend the American League pesnt-

As to baseball's present status. Senator Chandler said he talked with President Truman a few days ago just before leaving Washimr- ton and "I came away with the impression the President thought baseball had iustifled its right to continue for the duration.”

He said he had been told of instances in which baseball plav- ers ciassified i-F (medically unfit) had been inducted into the armed services just because they were ball players through what he tenn- ed abuse of authority by some draft board officials.

Liquidation of the speedy war- rior eliminates a threat to Allie shipping which about five ago terrorized the North and Canada's eastern seaboard. It ends, too, an intermittent ocean hunt which began soon after the Scheer sank the Jervis Boy and at one time was comparable to. if not as successful as. the one which caught the Bismarck.

Presence of the Scheer along the great circle route from Canada to Britain was rumored long before it became fact. Every ship sail- ing that ccurse was put on the alert and none left port without fear she might be blown out of the water by the raiders rifles.

But it never happened - until one fall night the Jervis Bay's (i8- ship convoy was attacked. Blind- ed by powerful searchlights, out- gunned and without a hope. the crew of the gallant armed cruiser
