A GIRL who never has played

marked degree in California and has
so impressed observers here that she
was awarded the last seeded spot in
the classic starting tomorrow.
justification for her gaining the
fourth seeded position came from q
recent victory over Sara Moore, local
public parks champion and the fourth
ranking woman racketer OF the Dis
trict. Miss Moore would have received
that position In the City of Washing
ton draw had 1t not been for her de-
feat at the hands of Miss Greason.
The newcomer is said to be on q
par with Margaret Robinson, defend
ing champion; Mary Cootes, District
champion, and Edith Clarke-seeded
In that order. In addition to her con-
quest of Miss Moore, Miss Greason's
play has been recognized officially
through her gaining of one Of the
six positions on the Middle Atlantic

Mrs. Robinson, Miss Cootes, Miss
Clarke and Miss Moore also were
placed.

lTAKE look at the record. Ore
gon Inlet was ever thus.
Only this time 1t Is more so.
a Year after year, season after
season, the fishing down In North
Carolina has been puzzle to every
angler who goes there after big blues,
channel bass and weaks.
There must be, and there is, some
thing good, or else anglers would not
part with plenty Of the long green
to make the trip just for their health.
It's long way away. and that drive
over the sand dunes is plenty fought,
but they know that on the other side
there will be blueflsh and channel bass
in such numbers and such size as you
never have seen before. That is, some
times.
You can figure the weather
and you can figure the tides;
you even can bring in the
moon and a rabbits foot, but
you can't figure the fish.
Boy, when those fish are there 1t
Is Like no place on the coast. Every
body gets plenty. But when they
are away there Is no drearier or more
God-forsaken place this side Of the
Sahara Desert. There are times when
the nsh are so thick and plentiful
that they fight each other for q
chance at your feather, but there also
are times when you can't get them
to bite II you hang q gold-plated bait
over the side.
Oregon Inlet Experiences.
WANT to know how fishing Is at
Oregon Inlet? Ask Frank Del
Vecchio, ask Ted New, ask Roger
Planner. For the answers they give
you about that blank blank place they
could be put out Of Sunday School.
Continuing your investigation, you
might ask William Hubert Of Alexan-
dria or Representative F. H. Hildebrand
Of South Dakota. You md that Oregon
Inlet is the best place in the world,
that the fish are more plentiful and
larger and have more fight than any,
thing else they have seen. You see,
they hit It when the fish were in, the
others were not there at the right
time.
With J. s. Barlow, William

OLDER MEN WANT
 YOUTHFUL BRIDES
Young Girls Choose Part ners Over Wider Age
 Range Than Youths

New York, N. Y. = The older a man grows, the younger he wants his bride to be in comparison with his own age, according to the stat isticians of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, who base their statement on statistics of first mar riages in New York State, exclusive of New York City.
 Young brides choose their part ners over wider range Of ages than young men do. In the case of 21-year-old bride, the average age of the groom is 23.7 years difference of 2.7 years, while the average choice of young man of 2l is bride only II year younger, or 199 years of age.
 Averages
 The later a girl marrieS, the more nearly like her own, on all average, will. be the age of her groom. For women who marry at age 25, the grooms age on an average is 26.8 years, or less than two years in excess of the brides. At age 30, a woman chooses for her husband on an average a man about one year older than herself; and for ages of the bride above 30, there is little difference on an average between the age of bride and groom.
 The situation is quite different with men. The older man is al his first marriage, the greater is the disparity of ages between bride and groom likely to be. A man who mar ries for the first time at age 25 chooses, on an average, bride 22.3 years old; at age 30, his bride on an average is 24.9 years old, at age 35, her average age is 27.8, and at age 40, it is 319; thus the difference in ages ranges from II years for a groom of age 21 to 8.1 years for a groom of age 40 The statisticians point out that an important socia! proble mis involved in this wide dit- ference in the age of husband ana wife in the case of men marrying relatively late, for it tends to in- crease the risk of widowhood and orphanhood.
 Mortality Rate
 "The chances of these unfor- tunate states become great" the statisticians declare, mot only be- cause it is the husband who is usually several years older than the wife, but also because the male suf- fers from higher mortality than the female. This situation would be accentus.ted in population in which there were a substantial amount of postponement of mar riage, particularly on the part of the male, for the difference between his age and that of his bride tends to heco' le greater as the age of the groom increases"

The business upturn will con- tinue, it was predicted today by F. G. Loehmann of the Loehmanr Chevrolet Co. on his return from Detroit, where he participated in a series of sales discussions with officials of the Chevrolet Motor Division of the General Motors Sales Corporation. Business is holding up well, he asserted, and he says he looks for no early change in current business trends.
 "The current momentum of in- dustrial sales ought to carry the present good market well into 1938," Mr. Loehman declared. "The demand for goods of all classifications is reflected in the consistent demand for passenger
