The big bomb recently was given a drop test (unarmed) at Muroc dry lake. Calif., from a converted B--29. With Royall are UaJ. Gen. Everett S. Hugnes, chief of ordnance, and Maj. Gen. A. D. Qulnton, Jr. (right) commanding the proving grounds.

THERE seems to be a general that the opening of a e season is an interesting item to only 10 cities in which the 16 clubs are parked. Nothing could be farther off the track of truth. The 16 e teams are large-ly made up of ballplayers from the hamlets and the villages of the coun- - try who take a deep pride in the ex-ploits of a native son. The big-leag-cities are only the spectators. They rarely contribute any of the talent needed to carry on the show. Here are a few examples: Ewell Blackwcll from San Dimas, Calif.: rhil Cavaretta, Wilmette. 111.; Bill Nicholson, Chestertown, Md.; Larry Jansen, Forest Grove, Ore.; Harry Walker, Leeds, Ala.; Bob Feller, Van Meter, Iowa; George Kcll, Swifton, Ark.; rhil Marchcdon, Penetang, Ont.; Bill Johnson, Montclair, N. J.; Joe DiMaggio, Dom DiMaggio, Mar-tinez, Calif., and Bobby Doerr from lllane, Ore. After all, Ty Cobb came from Royston, Ga.; Mathcwson from Pa.; Lajoie from Woon-socke- t, Cy Young and Alexander trom outposts in Ohio and Nebraska. Baseball Is small-tow- n game village enterprise. There Is little room for sandlots in the big cities. The cities only supply the spec-tators. They haven't time to bother about the kids who, in the main, can live or die unless they hap-pen to be lucky enough to live under the rule of Commissioner Wallander of New York, who is vitally Interested in their careers. There are other Commissioner Hol-landers now but ' not enough of them. In the last few years, baseball has taken on a tremendous lift. It broke all attendance records in 1946. It broke these records again in 1947. It is my belief the old game will set a new cluster of marks in 1948. This season, if one can Judge from the spring hullabaloo shoald be base-ball's all-tim- e record year as far as attendance goes. The two leagues should pass the 20 million mark with something to spare. Which finds us hailing the Charley Ebbets of 30 years ago as he remarked: "Base-ball is in Its infancy." Pennant Predictions AMERICAN LEAGUE No. 1: New York Yankees. No. 2: Boston Red Sox. No. 3: Detroit Tigers. . No. 4: Cleveland Indians. No. 5: Philadelphia Athletics. No. 6: Browns, White Sox and Senators, neck and neck, for last place. Under the sound leadership of Bucky Harris, the Yankees are picked to repeat for one solid reason they look to be the most solid team in the race. Early buds and blossoms are a far cry from the yellow and crimson leaves of late September, so in mak-ing a selection one must gamble with fate and the fortunes of war, the breaks of the game, through the five and a half months beyond. The Red Sox are as good as the Yankees, perhaps a shade better, up to the important matter of pitching and strong reserves. With their excellent pitching, the Tigers might win through the right and left arms Steve O'Neil can throw against the enemy. But the Tigers have neither an infield nor an out-field to match either the Yankees or the Red Sox. Cleveland's improved Indians still belong in fourth place as Connie Mack's Athletics have a death grip on the top of the second division. The White Sox, Senators and Browns are strictly minor league clubs who have no place in a big They are out to live or make money on the four strong clubs where, on their own, they couldn't draw 300 thousand people. They are the league's chiselers. They should offer a spectacular battle for last place in the dizzy dip to the subway title. So we can forget about them as busy broom-me- n sweep away the debris. NATIONAL LEAGUE No. 1: St. Louis Cardinals. No. 2: Brooklyn Dodgers. No. 3: Boston Braves. No. 4: New York Giants. No. 5: Cincinnati Reds. No. 6: Pittsburgh Pirates. No. 7: Chicago Cubs. No. 8: Philadelphia Phillies. This is a very different picture from the American league layout. It will be a much better and much tighter race from top to bottom. There certainly should be a much closer scramble among the Cardi-nals, Dodgers and Braves than the younger league can give you. In picking the Cardinals over the Dodgers and Braves, one has to gamble with fate a kind of fate that will leave most of Eddie Dyer's veteran athletes intact. The Cardinals, in their first-lin-e strength, have the best team In their league, but their reserves are weak and thin. They can afford few re-verses. Their catching is none too hot. But they have a pitching staff that should be well ahead of all others Dickson, Munger, Brecheen, Pollet, Hearn, Brazle and at least two others who can win a lot of games. FELLER AND FRIEND...

This was one year after war broke in Europe, yet the army still didn't see the need of planes. And had it not been for Congress-man Ross Collins of Mississippi who demanded more planes, the army would have been worse prepared than it was. Today, President Truman an Is siding with Secre-tary Forrestal's navy and ground forces, while congress as in 1940 is siding with the air force. Backstage battling between For-rest-and Air Secretary Symington has been even more vitriolic than most people realize. Here is part of the repartee during a locked-doo- r session of the senate armed services committee between the air secretary and the man who is supposed to be his boss: SYMINGTON "The air force for three years has said it needed the program In peacetime and It has never deviated because of the strategic aspect of the 70 groups. We asked this year what we asked for in 1947 and 1918." FORREST AL "You have to ex-ercise tome judgment between ex-tremes. There is a middle ground for judgment which, as I say, I have to rely on the joint chiefs of staff to furnish me with, and they are going to have a very hard wrestling match to do it." In addition to the 70 regular groups, the air force is asking for 27 groups for air national guard, 34 groups for air reserve, 22 squad-rons for such activities as recon-naissance, air weather and air com-munications. The increase from 55 to 70 groups will mean a correspond-ing increase from 364,000 to 453,000 men by the end of 1949. If the program is ap-proved, the air force plans on adding 1,512 airplanes in fiscal year 1949. The big increase would be in bomber strength. Under the pro-gram, the air force would be limited to 480 bombers; under the program, this would be increased to 720 bombers. That is roughly a 50 per cent in-crease in our striking force," Gen. "Touhy" Spaatz told the senators. "The plane we would like to con-tinue to build," added Symington, "is a modification of the He pointed out that the first 9 had a bomb load of 2,000 pounds, whereas the present bomb load is 10,000 pounds. The original range was 3,938 miles, the present range is 4,100 miles and the expected range is 6,945 miles. However, the 9 already has been flown more than 5,000 statute miles with 10,000 pounds of bombs, Symington disclosed. Air Force Maneuvers IN MANEUVERS OVER GREAT BRITAIN, the air force has demon-strated its ability to slip a bombing mission of 9 Superfortresses through the equivalent of Russia's defenses. Lt. Gen. Curtis Le May, air force chief In Europe, arranged with the Royal Air Force to send a mock mission against Britain's tight and radar net. Because of long experience during the war, the British net Is supposed to be the most efficient in the world. However, the B-2- not only broke through to their target, but most of them never were detected. Secret of the American success was altitude. The big Forts flew m at ceiling of 35,000 feet. As a result of the maneuvers, air force strategists are convinced that the "iron curtain" around the Soviet could never stop a high-flyin- g mis-sion of especially since Rus-sia's defenses are stretched out over thousands of miles, compared to the relatively small area defended by Britain. Note The joint .British-America- n maneuvers were pulled off by Gen-eral Le May without orders from Washington. MacArthur's Triumphal Tour GENERAL MacARTEUR'S BOOSTERS are trying to find way to revive their hero's battered popu-larity. Despite the drubbing Mac-Arth-received in California, Wis-consin and Nebraska, Congressman A L Miller of Nebraska says: "MacArthur did not quit at Bataan. and he is still a very live candidate now. I am amazed that anyone should count the general out. Next move being urged by Mac-Arthur- 's friends Is his immediate return to the United States for a hero's ovation. If MacArthur flies makes a tri-umphal, to California and rear-platfor- m cross-countr- y, train trip to Washington, with speech to a joint session of con-gress, they claim his political ap-peal would be revived. Other public observers believe MacArthur might wind up with as cheers on such a tour. many boos as In addition, it would just about ru.n of occu-pied his work as commander Japan. fw ' . ,iv ft r A jfh . i COLUMBIA BASIN SIPHON. ..
