Ane POAACe o1 several large @0m- rnunities have complained to The" !" stated Commissioner Mccarthy to- day in explaining why he seeks the attorney generals advice, "that they are unable to trace owners of foreign registrations when marker numbers of car incolved in some alleged violation have been reported to them.
 Difficult To Face
 "The department of motor ve- hicles in New York, for instance, will furnish the supposed residence of the owner of a New York regis tered car concerning which com plaint has been made to some Con- necticut police department. The police then communicate with the address given. Back comes post office statement that "addressee has moved, no forwarding address given and the Connecticut police cannot locate the individual except through sheer luck in observing the car on a Connecticut street or highway.
 "The situation is that the person in question has removed his family to Connecticut but is still travelling on the foreign registration. The state law define residence for pur- poses of registration as six months stay in the state in any one year.
 "On the other hand the commits sioner of motor vehicles is given authority by state statute to make reciprocal agreements with other states concerning privileges to be by each state to visiting operators. In many instances other states limit the privileged time of operation to periods from one month to three. In such cases it seems as though operators from those states should have to register their motor vehicles in Connecticut within the same time limits their states allow Connecticut operators.
 "The apparent conflict between the two provisions of the state law Is what I desire to have Attorney General Pallotti straighten out for me. Then we will know what pro- cedure we can take legally"
 3O,00O Cars!
 It is estimated at the department of motor vehicles that more than 30,000 cars are being operated in Connecticut on foreign or out of state registrations even though the owners of these cars have been engaged in a ''gainful occupation" in Connecticut for months.
 Aside from the revenue of ap- proximately $200,000 which would be derived from the proper registra- t1on of these motor vehicles Com missioner Mccarthy is even more interested in obtaining the identi- flcations of the operators and their present places of abode so as to be able to furnish state and local police authorities with this informa- tion as needed.
 In the event that the six months time Is upheld as a positive require ment the commissioner stated that he can still demand that all out of state operators proposing to use their cars in Connecticut for periods any stated time, one month for example, must register with the department and receive a permit, no fee, to enjoy the privi- lege. An identification list would then be available for the police.

THIEF TURNS HONEST

Altadena, Cal. (UP)-Dr. T. w. Snipes, unlike Diogenes, did not have to look for an honest man; the honest one came to him. First, he stole Snipes' electric cigar lighter from his car. Later, apparently con- Scioris stricken, he returned the lighter and took advantage of his second visit to repair Snipes' car radio which was out of order.

 With the Third Army in Lou 1Siana, Aug. 19.-(UP)-The Third Army is making its war maneuvers look so much like the real thing its hard to believe I am not witnessing another blitzkreig such as I saw when Germany moved into Jugo- Slavia.
 Although the maneuvers are called war games they looked like anything but games as I watched light and medium tanks crashing, amid clouds of red dust, through the pine woods of Louisiana with the crews manning the guns as if they actually were moving into enemy lines.
 I never would have believed that maneuvers could be made to look so much like the real war saw in Europe. Road-stained motorcycle dispatch riders whizzed by at fre- quent intervals as the mechanized column progressed. Filled with steel-helmeted officers and men, lowslung, highspeed "jeeps" roamed the highways. It almost made me think was again watching the Ger mans moving across Yugoslavia.
 Further realism came into the scene when Private James D. Rob- inson, 20, was killed when his tank overturned. AS in real war the &C., cident didn't stop the advance of the blue forces moving from north- ern Louisiana to repel an invasion" of Red forces which have landed on the gulf coast and are moving northward.
 In First Place
 The war games are just entering their first. phase with the third army engaging in open maneuvers involving only its own troops pre- paratory to the climax of the show which comes when the third army meets the second army in Septem- Der.
 Lieut.. Gen. Walter Krueger, com- mander of the third army, has instructed each of his commanding generals in charge of the Red and the Blue forces as tot he tactical situation but beyond that each commander Is left to his own de- vices. This technique constitutes "open" maneuvers as opposed to controlled" maneuvers wherein um- pires direct each force as to what their movements shall be.
 The opening phases are expected to testt he Blue tanks against the Red cavalry over terrain suitable to both.

 35,O0O Soldiers Here
 Involved in this entire action are about 35.O00 soldiers, members of the Seventh Corps. It is assigned to protect the main body of the Second Army which lies behind 1t and to the east. Under the tactical problem outlined these units are to make repeated thruSts against the enemy until Saturday when, un- der the pressure of superior enemy strength they will withdraw and join the remainder of the Second Army for the next phase of the maneuvers.
 Everything is being done to give the officers and men taste of what actual wartime campaign ing is like-1941 style. With this in view several squadronS of navy dive bombers undertook a bombing attack on the new positions of the 33rd and 35th, It was the first time that dive bombers had been used in army maneuNers in this coun- try.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
MONTREAL, Canada, Nov. l.
Len Burrage and Paul Courteau,
two veterans of the Washington
Eagles hockey team, will be the men
to watch tomorrow when the United
States Capitals sextet invades
ShaWinigan Falls, Quebec. for its
third exhibition in four days.
Despite that they are accustomed
to great hockey players, Montreal
natives have been quick to concede
the class of Burrage and Courteau,
who again promise to be key men
in the Eagles defense of their East
ern League championship.
Burrage, one of the truly great
amateur defenSemen of the era,
still is marvel at 81. Although
he has yet 10 round into his best
physical shape. the brainy veteran
remains master of stick handling
and apparently still has his sixth
sense for diagnosing plays.
Courteau again bids fair to be
the color boy of the Eagles. A
veritable dynamo of energy and
still in love with hockey, the flying
French-Canadian is one of the most
popular pucksters of 'em all up here
and several high-ranking local
clubs were hot after his services
before he signed with the Eagles
again.

but I think its good enough to win
with. Turner won't think there's
anything wrong with it if Jimmy
cracks him. and I think we'll hit him
a couple of times
Turner is the logical favorite. This
is only De Chard's second trip over
the eight-round route, while Jay
has been that distance and longer
many times. He went five sessions
with big Abe Simon before losing
on a technical knockout because OF
a eashed eye. and Simon was good
enough to earn a match with Heavy
weight Champion Joe Louis.
Turner is a willing, tWo-flsted
puncher whose experience will stand
him in good stead against the pea
green Washington boy. And, top
ping everything else, he'll have a
sizeable weight advantage. scaling
212 or 215 to De Chard's 100. Beef,
handled cagily, means lot in
fight, and more than once has been
the decisive factor.
De Chard has had only one full
eight-round fight and he won the
nod over Joe Carilu. Before that
he travelled six heats with tough old
Italo Colonello. That represents
the best of his meager experience.
1t seems hardly enough to warrant
a match with a gladiator OF
Turner's Caliber.
But the Texan is a stand-up
fighter who comes in with both fists
pumping and De Chard figures to
hold his own against that type.
Jimmy has a good left jab and
when the right is in working order
it compares with the best in the
business. 1t may be that he hopes
to end the fight with one deadly
sWipe of that right early in the
fight and will have it primed and
cooked for the first opening he
sees. Against Carilli he mixed both
hands judiciously. employing a long,
pokerlike left to pile up points and
hold off his adversary after the
right was injured, so he could out
point Turner.
Some critics believe Turner may
f1atten De Chard if he goes after
him at the first bell. This opinion
is predicated on Jimmy's last fight
in which he warmed up slowly and
was on the losing end until after
the halfway point. But it must be
remembered that he had wait OF
almost 10 minutes between the time
he entered the ring and the begin
ming of the fight and, after work.
ing up a sweat in his dressing room,
cooled off.
AS for those who still say he can't
take a good belt on the jaw, you
have only to check the records.
Colonello blasted him with a couple
of beauties and Carilli, the young
ster who foored Louis in training
session, buckled his knees with a
potent wallop only to have Jim
come back and carry the fight to
him.

In Tournament Golf
Through Season
Mrs. MeekIey, Mrs. Stokes
In Big Three Press
For Main luureIs
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Any compilation of the links Ceeds
of the women around Washington in
one of their best years puts three
feminine golfers at the top OF the
list. They form the big three OF
local golf and among them they
have accounted for three champion
ships this year.
They are: Mrs. Walter r. Stokes,
District champion; Mrs. Myron
Davv, Middle Atlantic champion;
Mrs. Betty P. Meckley, Maryland
State champion.
Mrs. Davy. beaten by single hole
BY Mrs. Meckley in the final round
of the Maryland State champion
ship at Chevy Chase in June, came
with a fast rush toward the end OF
the season with two outstanding
victories. If any one cared to form
a ranking list of local women golfers,
she should be at the top, on the
basis of her accomplishments, and
the class of the tournaments IN
which she either won or was close
to victory.
In September she won the Mary
land State Golf Association medal
play tourney and early this month
she won the Middle Atlantic cham
pionship.
Mrs. Meckley, winner of The Star
cup and many other tournaments
this year. annexed only one sectional
title. This was the Maryland State
championship But you don't have
to 90 farther than the record to
realize her consistency. Betty was
runnerup in both the District and
Middle Atlantic championships
losing each final round by single
hole. She won the gross award in
so many of the little one-day affairs
staged by the Women's District Golf
Association that the women started
calling her Gross" Meckley.
Lone victory for Mrs. Stokes was
the District championship, won by
the Manor woman over her home
course in June. But Mrs. Stokes
did not play in all the tournaments
this year. For long stretch she
didn't enter the events of the Wom-
ems District Golf Association.
Champions Well Bunched.
The three women's champions
Mrs. Davy. Mrs. Meckley and Mrs.
Stokes-are the big three of local
feminine golf Judged by any yard
stick. And based on the tourna-
ments of this year they aren't far
apart Single-hole victories decided
all three championships. You can't
draw a finer line than that, where
the curl of a putt may decide
title.
Close to the big three, but lacking
titles this year, were Mrs. l.. G..
PRAY of Manor, Mrs. Leo Walper
of Indian Spring, Mrs T. o. Bran
don of Columbia, and Mrs. T. F.
Neblett of Manor.
