individual and five-man team

prizes to attract one of the best
Skeet fields ever assembled.
With no defending champion, the
junior race appears wide open. Last
years winner, Larry Williams, jr.,
has passed his 18th birthday ami
versary and steps up to the unlim-
tied class. In his place, Larry and
his father are sponsoring the entry
of William (Shrimp) Hepner, who
has been shooting only about six
months, but who has developed
quickly into a star.

Hoberg Shows Power
In Initial Batting
Drill With Mats
Catcher, u, SIugged $50
At California; Played
In Bears BuckfieId
By Stan Correspondent of The Star.


CLEVELAND, June 12.-The lat
est addition to the Nats-Catcher
Carl Hoberg from the University of
California-is a square, jawed, 1885,
FOUNDER, whose catching experience
has been limited to two years Of
collegiate baseball.
Hoberg, a clasSic-featured, o.
year-old German, played in the out
field at Oakland (Calif0, High and
Marin Junior College, shifting be-
hind the plate with the Bears. A
right-hand batter, he hit $50 with
California this season.
Secuted and signed by Joe Cam
bria when California played the
University of Michigan recently at
Ann Arbor. the sturdy Hoberg played
right halfback on the Bears foot
ball team. His first act in a Wash
lngton uniform yesterday consisted
of smashing one of Bill zuber's bat
ting practice pitches against Cleve-
lands center-field fence, but his
jerky throwing motion was less i'm
pressive.
A native of Oakland, Hoberg will
be making his first trip to Washing
ton tomorrow. He journeyed to
Georgia when California's football
team played there last fall. But
never has he seen the eastern por-
ton of the United States.

Public 10 See Pastor

Turner'S Arena
Principals in Mondays
Bout to Appear Tomorrow;
De Chord Is Underdoq

Turner's Arena was as empty as
a preliminary boys head today as
Buddy Scott continued working out
with Johnny Kapovich in Baltimore
and Bob Pastor remained in New
York for final day of Singing.
But the principals in Monday
nights lO-round feature at Crit
fifth Stadium are due back at the old
address tomorrow, when public
workouts will be resumed at l
O'Clock. Pastor, slated to wind up
his affairs at Stillman's gym in
New York this afternoon, will be
first in the ring, Scott following at
2 o'clock.
Pastor, still cunning for a third
shot at Joe Louis after staying 81
rounds with the heavyweight cham
pion in two engagements, will be
accompanied by Italo Colonello, vet
eran Italian heavy, who will be ma
jor test No. l for young Jimmy De
Chard of this city. Colonello in the
eyes of many critics is too expert
enced for Jimmy and figures to
hand the District youth his first
professional setback. His work in
the last few days of training will
be watched with interest. and If he
seems to be In fairly good shape the
shekels will be riding on his bat
tered nose Monday night.
Scott worked with Kapovich yes
terday as Trainer Harry Raskin
stepped up the tempo of his routine.
1t was Buddy's first encounter of a
full-fledged heavy since last week,
as he had been devoting his ef-
forts to building up a defense
against Pastors right and working
on his footwork. Kapovich was
what the doctor ordered for rough
ing it up and giving Scott taste
of the brand of infighting he'll have
to cope with.

ers on what to serve, what kind Of

time to have the party.
No doubt you will be inviting
babies whose mothers you know

ficult to arrange . time between all
their maps to have the party with
out interfering with their sched-
ules. In general, perhaps three
thirty in the afternoon would prob
ably be the best time-then the
children could have an hour to-
gether before refreshment time at
four.thirty or five. That is the
supper time for many one-year-
olds. They would still be able to
get home and to bed at their regu-
lar hour after that. In any case,
the party should not be q long one,
as . lengthy period Of excitement
might cause over-tiredness.
Perhaps you can find out how
many Of the tiny guests are al
ready having Junior foods for their
meals. II not, it would be best to
have strained foods in your party
supper menu. Most children are
started on Junior foods at the
twelfth or eighteenth month, de-
pending upon the Doctors recon-
mendations. It would be safe to
say. then, that the strained foods
rather than the Junior foods should
be served 1T the party. Here is Q
menu plan that could be suited,
with variations, to almost any
group Of children you might get
