"He is superior to Hitler in leader

countries of Europe and Asia, is SUI

Although workers are invited to
offer criticism and suggestions, Cald-
well found that the only criticisms
concerned "the single topic OF in

complained about housing, playground

Increase Of Blue Grab in Chesapeake
Held Possible Only by Federal Aid

Heads of commercial seafood con-
Germs in Maryland have had little
fault to find with laws governing
their take, probably because mini
mum size limits on both fishes and
bivalves are ridiculously small and
the blue crab never has had real
protection.
One well-known operator, feeling
that the future Of the industry de-
pends upon the cooperation OF COM
nercial interests and sports anglers,
backed by adequate legislation,
writes:
when all interested parties unite
to obtain proper legislation there
will be no further need Of the re-
search labs from which there never
has come a recommendation OF eco
nomical value. Cooperative work
along proper lines alone will save
the hordes Of small rockf1sh now IN
Chesapeake Bay waters and only If
they are protected against destruc-
tive sink and drift nets during their
near dormant period in midwinter.
Citing the return of the blue crab
when small measure Of protec-
ton was given this delicious crus-
taecian a few years back as an ex-
ample, he continues: THE future
of the crab in the Chesapeake de-
ponds upon the complete protec-
ton of the sponge crab Writing
volumes about their habits and
range of field is as unproductive
toward providing for an increase in
their numbers as tagging fish to
learn of their migrations."
States Can't Agree.
We do not agree with the state
ment that the laboratory has no
value In increasing our marine re-
sources, but we do agree heartily
with the need for protection and

Mid Atlantic. Earle Sklnker, pal OF
the big District champ, is planning
to enter. Those two alone could
conduct two-man blitz in the only
big mems amateur tourney to be held
around Washington this year.
Skinker was a semifinalist in last
years championship at Hot Springs,
won by Bobby Brownell, who prob
ably will not defend his title.
Travel Solution Seen.
Manor probably will enter around
80 men. enough, with entries from
other clubs, to make a successful
event For a while there was talk
of calling of the tourney because
Of expected transportation troubles,
but now the tourney is on and
travel troubles probably will be
smoothed. Senior golfers in this
section will compete for the w. w.
Hinshaw Trophy while the younger
men are playing for the champion
ship.
So golf is a game that can be
learned only by a lengthy training
period. So it takes three or four
years to develop into a golfer, or do
you really think SO? 1t doesn't
take any such length of time, and
any one with the will to practice
and the will to work can become a
golfer within a short space of time.
Classic example arohd Washing
ton, of course, is Mrs. Myron Davy,
who five years ago couldn't hit her
hat, and today is the Middle At
lantic champion and holder of the
Maryland State medal play title.
She's at or around the top of all
the women around town.
But another woman is developing
game that again can upset the
old tradition that it takes many
years to become a golfer. She is
Mrs. Rex Howard, surprise winner
of The Star Glass A Trophy over
her home course at Kenwood last
week. Mrs. Howard has been play
ing less than three years, yet she
won the tourney with a card Of

winner of The Star Trophy is ath-
letic, OF course. Also she can hit
that ball a long way, She can be-
come, with time for practice, one of
the top linkswomen around town.

Helen Hicks Harb, former ma
tional womens champ, would settle
for the Chevy Chase course for
the rest of her golf life. Long an
admirer of the layout as a test of
the game, Mrs. Harb regrets that

Sum Far Into Million,
Will Be Raised by
Divot Diggers
Come Appears Certain
To Exceed All Others
In Its War Effort
BY WALTER McCALLUM.


Golfers at the country clubs
around Washington will buy War
stamps in the value of around So
$40 on the five Sundays set by the
District Golf Association as the days
through which the local links Or
ganization will boost sales by asking
each golfer to buy ascent stamp.
Today is the first of these days.
Others are June %, July Is, August
% and September q. The $500
estimate is based on an average Of
200 players each day at Is clubs and
probably is conservative.
The total amount may be much
more, which will represent a con-
siderable contribution by the golf
ers of the District.
Making Tremendous Effort.
All through golf nowadays the
accent is on helping the war effort
with Mr.. and Mrs. Golfer glad to
help. A week hence golfers at most
of the country clubs will be playing
in Hale America tournaments with
81 entry fee, the proceeds to go to
the Red Cross. Three of these
Journeys will be held. with others
scheduled July 4 and Labor Day.
When the sports balance sheet is
totaled this year golf probably will
be found to have contributed more
than any other sport to the war eff
fort, through the various methods
of fund raising in operation or con-
templated. Three million golfers
throughout the land are joining In
varied methods of raising money, by
sale of bonds and stamps, direct
contributions to the Red Cross
Army and Navy Relief, and United
Service Organizations.
The funds raised this year by
golf alone will total away up In the
millions of dollars, and some smart
gent should total the aid golf gives
to the war program. Without much
question it will top all other sports,
including baseball, football, boxing
and bowling.
Certain to Do Its Part
The District Golf Association Is
combining its efforts this year to the
single job Of asking each golfer to
buy a War stamp on five Sundays
during the season. That alone Is
sure to sell more than $500 worth
of stamps. Multiply that by the
number of organizations and clubs
doing the same thing and you'll have
an impressive total.
Add to it money raised by exhibit
tons, and Embarrassing matches, the
Hale America Journeys and other
affairs and the total will be away
up in the millions.
Golf has an opportunity to justify
Its existence as Americas top par
ticipant sport. 1t won't fail to do
its share.
