Lynch, johnson Offer
Seeding Problem in
City Net Tourney

Whether Hugh Lynch, the Dis
trict's f1fth-ranking tennis player,
should be seeded over David johnson.
No. locally and defending cham
pion of the Middle Atlantic tourna-
ment starting Saturday at Columbia
Country, will be up to the committee
to decide when the draw is made
tomorrow afternoon.
There's little doubt thx Barney
Welsh and Don Leavens, finalists in
| The Stars tournament last Sunday,
will be seeded one-two, but Lynch s
three-set victory over johnson in
the quarter final round of the City
of Washington may result in their
seedlings being reversed for the sec
tional event.
| If Don Martin of Georgetown
University enters, he may get a
seeded berth as result of his
straight-set conquest of Frank
Shore, who was seeded in The Star
tourney. If not, seedlings of the late
event undoubtedly will prevail.
Referee Clarence E. Buddy Daw-
son warned all prospective entrants
that the draw closes at noon to-
morrow and that entries should be
received or telephoned to Columbia S
Tennis Shop before that time. First
round matches will start Saturday
| afternoon.

Federation Insists All

National Capital Amateur Base
ball Federation affairs were going
swimmingly today after last nights
we'll attended "open-house" meeting
at which the boys Strengthened out
several minor matters lodged in their
teeth.
The questions of holding a moon
light boat ride without the boat,
whether players should be permitted
to beat up umpires without penalty
and proper procedure for shifting
players and teams from one circuit
to another were disposed of with
dispatch.
Clark Griffith, a member of the
Board of Directors, suggested the
boatless boat excursion, but had
his tongue in cheek. Commenting
on the idea of peddling 6O-cent
tickets to charter the steamer, Griff
said he thought fans would be willing
to kick in that much to help a good
cause without the trouble of holding
an excursion, but he was overruled.
More Discipline Ordered.
All funds collected on the outing
will be used to pay current bills
and defray the city championship
teams expenses to the national tour
nament at Youngstown, Ohio, next
month.
Sergt. Walter P. Griffith, fedora
ton secretary, was named delegate
to the national convention to be
held in conjunction with the tourna-
ment after the meeting heard the
bad news that he is subject to "a
hour call for transfer to Texas in
the United States Air Corps.
Stricter discipline for players was
voted in a motion directing league
presidents to suspend players guilty
of unnecessary roughness in pro-
testing decisions or failing to obey
the arbiter'S instructions. v. Allen
Ratcliffe, president of the District
of Columbia Umpires' Association,
presented the officials side of the
case and was instructed to notify
headquarters if proper satisfaction
could not be had from league heads
in future difficulties.

{" OURAGE and kindness can
not be debunked,' says
~ Phyllis Bentley, the we'll
known English novelist who is living
through her second world war and
who, on Page Two of this magazine,
speaks out in challenging article on
the importance of justice.
Miss Bentley came to the United
States for few months this spring to
fulfill lecture tour she contracted for
two years ago. She is an at active
person. physically and mentally. Deli
cately built, she looks even slighter in
a black dress and sheer white collar;
she has soft, curly gray hair,
cameo-clear features, and beautiful
fine -textured. pink-and-white skin.
The quality of her mind is. perhaps.
best revealed by her own definition
of the kind of fear she and women like
her are experiencing in England today.
The fear is the fear of letting other
people down." she says, speaking out
of frst-hand experience as an ambu-
lance driver. responsible for doing
three shifts a week" through the
blacked-out streets of Halifax, her
home city in northern England. Am
driving fast enough? Can l avoid
the broken glass? Can see another
car in time to avoid a collision? These
are the fears that harass you"
The picture she paints of present
day activity, recreation and meals in
Halifax is intimate and interesting
Miss Bentley's household consists OF
her mother. herself and two maids. In
the cellar of their house, they have
their own shelter which they share
with the next door neighbors. ut is
quite cozy." Miss Bentley says. land
We enjoy making improvements in it.
In the beginning none of US realized
how much time was to be spent in
shelters.
''As for social life, some of the
things that used to happen at night.
now take place on Saturday after
noon," Miss Bentley goes on. "One
great feature is the amateur dramatic
societies that flourish all over England
and are especially active in the North
where l come from. The public likes
US even better now than in peace
time"
Food, Miss Bentley says. is monoto-
nous, and the rationing gives rise to
odd customs. "In our household" she
explains, my mother divides the
rations into two parts. One of these is
for cooking; the other is divided into
four equal parts, one for her. one for
me, and one for each of the maids.
Then each of our individual parts is
put into differently colored jar and
we can eat them as we please. If l,
who am especially fond of butter. eat
all my butter up in day or two,
nobody else has to 60 short. When
friends come to visit, they arrive with
their own little bundle of ratiops.
'As for our diet, we have plenty Of
