Manila Guest
Tells Philippine
Policy In City

Manila to Coolidge was the
route of Charles Birsh, Singer Sew
ing Machine representative for
the Philippines, who stopped here
last week to visit Miss Kay Hen
dry before continuing to New
York.
Fear of Japanese invasion of the
Philippines has decreased in the
last two months, according to Mr..
Birsh, although a certain tense
ness is still apparent and defense
work is noticeable in Manila. Eva
cuation centers have been formed,
he says and at the present rate at
which steamers are being convert
ed into auxiliary cruisers, it won't
be long before clippers will be the
only available transportation from
Manila to the United States. Not
only the American government but
the Philippine government as well
Is concentrating on defense work,
he said, and rapidly forging ahead
in their effort to make the islands
impregnable. President Quezon
has made a public statement to
the effect that all Philippine re-
sources are available to the Amer
lean government, according to Mr.
Birsh who says people in Manila
are not "draft-conscious" because
the present conscription system
affects so few Americans residing
on the islands.
Mr.. Birsh travelled across the
Pacific on the President Cleveland
which was making its last voyage
before becoming an Army trans
port ship. He said the passeng-
ers on board seemed to be una
ware of the Japanese-Chinese con-
flict till they landed in Shanghai,
China. which Is Japanese controll-
ed now. In Kobe, the only Japan
ese port at which the vessal stop
ped. some restrictions were placed
on the passengers, such as not let
ting them 60 ashore with more
than two cigars, or more than five
yen, the Japanese money. The
reason for the money quota was
that the passengers bought cheap
yen in China for a low price,
then took them into Japan where
they sold much higher. Mr.. Birsh
lcommented. AS for the Japanese
attitude, he said that they were
outwardly friendly. Most of the
passengers on board were refugeed
missionaries who got on at Shang-
hal. and also large number OF
navy wives who had been ordered
out of the Orient.
After being away from the Unit
ed States for four years, Mr.. BirsA
said he was particularly glad 10
get back to an invigorating cn'
mate. and" he continued, IT
seems so good to see fresh fruit
and vegetables in the stores" Al
though he has been in the United
States just week, Mr.. Birsh mas
noticed an Indifferent attitude on
the part of the people concerning
the Aid To Britain question. "Ap-
parently this question has not re-
ceiyed the serious thought OF the
majority of the people," said MI
Birsh. He added. "ln Manila there
is absolutely no pickering and dis.
agreeing concerning this policy.
He believes that Manila is almost
cne hundred percent for aid 10
Britain. AS for Philippine inde-
pendence, Mr.. Birsh said. They've
asked for 1t and they are going 10
get it, ...
This was Mr.. Birsh's first visit
tn Arizona, but he expressed a
definite liking for this part OF the
country and hoped he would De

Bruins, Maple Leafs Hockey Series Even
(By United Press)

The Boston Bruins tied their best-of-seven series with the To- ronto Maple Leafs at two victories each last night by scoring a 2-1 victory in the renewal of their Stanley cup playoffs.
 A third-period goal by Herb Cain gave the Bruins the victory but the winners suffered the loss of their leading scorer, Bill Cowley, who hobbled of the ice after he was checked by a Leaf defenseman in the first period.
 Woody Dumart put Boston in front early in the second period but Toronto tied 1t up on goal by Gordon Drillon. The Leafs protested Gains goal on grounds that the forward had kicked the puck into the net but Referee Mickey Ion up- held the score.
 The Detroit Red Wings tallied a goal in each period to defeat the Chicago Black Hawks, 3-1, in the opening game of their best-of-three semi-finals playoff. Mush March, veteran Chicago forward, scored his teams only goal while Sid Abel, Carl Liscomb and Joe Fisher all tailed for the winners.

BIC LITTLE IS NOW CHOICE IN
 $5,OOO TOURNEY
National Open Champ Is Great Bad Weather
 Golfer
BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports EditOr)

Asheville, N. C., March 28.-(UP) The power hitterS-the boys who can dlg 'ern out of soggy fairways were favoriteS today as a field of 100 set out across a waterlogged course in the 5000 land of the sky open golf tournament.
 A hard rain fell all day yeS- terday forcing poStponement of the first round of the tournament over the Biltmore Forest Country club. Instead of four rounds of IS holes & day there will be 18 today, IS tomorrow and 36 on Sunday.
 Lawson Little, national open champion who is rated the best "mudder" among the pros, was the favorite. A broad-shouldered guy who can hit 'ern mile, Little has 8 great record of winning tourna- ments when the rains come and the greens and fairwayE get wet.
 He won the Texas open through 8 final round that brought rain, snow and mud. Two years ago he fired 8 65 in the last round of the Los Angeles open and won the tournament on 8 day that was bet ter for duck hunting than golf.
 Wood Looks Good
 Others rated as 8 good bet for the 1900 first money are Sammy Snead, Clayton Heather, Jug Me- Spaden and Craig Wood. Wood, built like a halfback, is particularly dangerous in heavy weather.
 Until the rain slowed down the course, Byron Nelson, former na- tional open champion, was the out standing favorite. Rated the best iron player in the game, Nelson is fresh from 8 victory in the Greens boro open and appears to be in one of his hot streaks. Soggy fairways, however, are likely to take the edge of of his crisp iron play.
 The rain was not so bad as 1t seemed, however, for while it may have damaged the fairways 1t im- proved the greens, in the opinion of most of the professionals and alrla- teurS.
 The tournament was won last year by Benny Hogan, the little Texan who fred an il under par. Dick Chapman, national champion, heads the amateurs and the foreign play CTS are led by Maritime Pose of Ar gentina and Jim Terrier, open and amateur champion of Australia.

LOEW-POLI LADS CON THE SPOT.
 THIS EVENING.
Defending Champs Must
 Win to Bring About v Third Contest

Anxious to ~clean up" its best of three basketball series with the koew-Poli outfit, as the special ser- les is being played on winner take all' basis, the Baldwin Props will go "all out" tonight on the Washington Hill court in an effort 70 decide the best team, take the total receipts above expenses and play for a New York trip, which was denied them when the cham pionship of the Washington Hill league was settled by forfeit rather than the usual playoff.
 Close Finish
 After @ big start last Monday night, the Preps skinned through with . 36 to 34 victory in the first game, after a 29 to 19 lead at half tttme. The Pon team put in great fourth period bid for the game, but missed, blaming themselves for mis- sing IA of 20 free throws during the contest. Tonight, they are on edge for 8 winning effort as practice has been steady and confidence strong since last Mondays game.
 George Graham is expected to Ufficiate the contest, which is set for 8:30 o'clock with another ca- pacity crowd figured to be on hand for the all-important playoff game. ,Tmproved play on the part of the theater outfit is necessary to assure as third game, for they cannot af- ford to let the Props get off to big lead again.
 Manager Sid Monti of the Bald- wins, Is confident that his charges will clean up the series tonight, and / has made a personal wager with Manager Jim Bianco of the L-P ar- ray just to have 8 roofing interest aa the game. Pete Pomponio may see service with Bianco's squad tonight though that is not a certainty, as he did not play last week though ex- Yected to see action,
