FavOrite's Position

Hogan Slumps TO 73
BY GAYLE TALBOT

AUGUSTA, Ga, April 10 -
(Pl- The Masters Golf Tour
nament struggling along
against diSCouraging rain and
distraCting war news, entered
its second round today with
Horton Smith and Paul Run
yam, a couple Of proficient vet
Grams, leading the field with
equal CTS at the first quarter.
Strangely enough, scarcely
anybody expected either Smith
or Runyan to win the tourna-
ment. The faVOrite, after the
wet and bedraggled field Of AZ
had checked in last night, was
Byron Nelson, who shot SO
on his first round, When Mel
son shoots like that at the start
and admits, as he did, that he
never felt more certain Of his
game, then it is hard to make
any other choice.
BACKS TEXAN
Harold jug" McSpaden, who
played a round with Nelson,
was so enthrallCd Iby the tall
Texans game that he offered
to bet him against the field. The
former Open, p. G.. A. and Mas
ter5' champion f allie d TO hit
only one green, said McSpaden,
and that was because one Of his
drives came TO rest on a rock.
when he's hitting the ball like
he is now, he's unbeatable, "
McSpaden added.
Smith and Runyan, however,
deserve full credit for great
rounds under difficult Condi-
tons. Five under par on the ex-
acting Augusta National course
is eye-bugging golf, even when
the sun is shining Smith was
in rare form from tee to green.
Runyan, the little fellow who
cant hit a ball very far, was
helped a great deal by the fact
that the course was very fast
for most of his round. Also, he
took only rs puts on the 10
holes, Nelson, by comparison,
required 80 puts.
BYRD A SENSATION
The sensation for some time
was Sammy Byrd, the former
ball player, who came painting
in before the rain began with
an elegant 68. Before Smith and
Runyan bettered his mark and
Nelson tied him, Sammy had
time to tell what finally per
suaded him TO chuck a com
Portable baseball career for the
uncertainties of money golf.
Il stopped off in Atlanta in
the spring Of '35 and played a
round with Bobby jones' ne
recalled, and Bobby was kind
enough to say that ! had as
good a swing as he ever saw.
And then, later that year, Lar
ry MaCPhail, for whom | was
playing at Cincinnati, said he
thought l was a sap if | didn't
devote myself to golf. I've new
cr regretted taking his advice.
If l had stuck with baseball l
would be washed up by this
time"

The State Conservation Com

turn to the old deputy game war

missions annual reorganization
meeting in Lansing
Only limited number OF
counties will be considered, in

The system of game wardens
was abandoned about 10 years
ago after a storm Of criticism, but
is being urged again for those
counties with safeguards against
abuses.
p. J. Hoffmaster, State Con-

Ernest Buckholz said today.
The team has been working

Determined to have a we'll

been sending the boys through
some running drills which have
served to get the team warmed

DETROIT, April 10 - P.-
The TORCHES Detroit Red
Wings are one victory from one
of hockey's most astounding
Stanley Cup successes, and in
the words Of Goalie walter
(Turk) Broda of the Toronto
Maple Leafs they are virtually
invincible.
They're unbeatable" painted
the pudgy Broda as he pulled
off his pads after a 10 2 De-

PLAY SUNDAY
Sunday night Broda, the Ma

standout in his profession will
get another chance at the goal
crazy Detroiters in the best of
seven series. If he fails. the
cmbattcred old trophy symbolic
of world hockey supremacy will
pass into the hands of De-
troit club that finished in fifth
place in the regular season and
barely qualified for the play
offs.
Toronto had every chance
last night to get back into the
contention for the cup it has
missed six times since its last
triumph in 1892 The veteran
Lorne Carr fired home a pair
Of goals 30 seconds apart in the
first period, and the top De-
trolt line of Sid Abel, Don
Crosse and Eddie Wares was
broken up by a possible frac-
tured jaw for Abel and a ten

Wares.
ROCKIES SCORE
But before the period end
ed Rockies Jerry Brown and
Jack Carveth had plastered
goals 38 seconds apart past
Broda to square the count. Then
substitute Pat McReavy, who
had replaced Abel, slipped the
puck into the cage midway of
the second period for the win
ming marker.
The veteran sgd Howe feint-
ed Broda out of position for
the fourth Red Wing goal in
the same period, and in the
final period Defenseman Eddie
Bush blasted home a so footer.
That gave Bush perfect rec
ord for the night of four as
sists and a goal for a playoff
record by defenseman.

Giegengack Denies Power
To Confer With T.. |. O..

Answering a charge that he was
discriminating against the c. I. O.
in that he would not grant hearing
on wage-increase demands to Local
1872 of the United Federal Workers
of America, A. E. Giegengack, Public
Printer. said today he had not con-
ferred with the union representatives
because the law provides no such
authority.
He explained that the Keiss Act
specified that 10 or more craftsmen
could negotiate with the Public
Printer in a group, but that there
is no authorization for him to con-
fer with outsiders, such as the c. I. Q.
representatives.
Mr.. Giegengack said he now Is
conferring with several groups OF
Government Printing Office en-
ployes and that wage scale adjust
ments decided on as result OF these
hearings could be extended to the
workers represented by the C. I. o.
Any other conferences, he added,
could lend no assistance and would
be a waste of time, further COM
.plicating the stepped-up working
schedule under which the Govern
ment Printing Office now is operat-
ing to meet the war emergency.
The charge Of discrimination was
made by Sidney R. Katz, secretary
of the Maryland-District c. I. o.
Industrial Union Council. In letter
to Mr.. Giegengack, he asked that the
local be granted a hearing and
reminded that this privilege had
been given other groups.

LONDON, Feb. 13-The memory
Of q great king and Of q gallant
tradition reached across the years
yesterday TO bless the youthful
pilots Of the r. A. F.'s newest
Belgian fighter squadron as they
received the squadron colors with
the command to "unfurl them in
the sunshine Of liberty"
The colors were those given to
the Belgian air force in 1919 by
King Albert for its services through
the four years of the First World
War.
Since the Nazi conquest of Bel
gium in 1910, they had been kept
hidden in a Belgian forest, guarded
by loyal peasants. Some time ago
a Belgian air force officer, with the
look Of floorwalker and nerve of
a pirate, went over and brought
them here.
Later another officer in the Bel
gian air force who had escaped
from his conquered homeland ar
rived at Belgian headquarters ex-
hausted, but grimly and proudly
bearing the golden lion which was
fixed to the head of the colors staff
when Albert presented them to the
first regiment Of Belgian aviators.

to the laws OF the Belgian people. .
There were many brass hats pres

and War Minister of the Belgian
government-in-exile; Anthony j

and half a hundred military at

clicked their heels and saluted.
But through all the ceremony the
man who had made it possible, the
34-year-old flyer who wenrover and
got the colors. stood shyly in the
background. He wouldn't talk much
insisted it hadn't been dificult.
He knew where to look" He
