You're correct. I've been looking at ancestry.com, and was coming up dry, but once I saw your post, I plugged in the data, and came across Andrew J. Perna's WWII draft registration card dated Apr 27, 1942. The signatures match. He indicated on the card that his job was "Toledo Baseball Club Trainer".
