By the Associated Press.
Edmund Toland, counsel for the
House Naval Affairs Committee,
said today that international cartels
between Bendix Aviation Co. and
German aircraft firms 'interferred
with the war effort of Canada and
Australia" but this was denied by
Vincent Bendix, former president
of the company.
Mr.. Toland had Mr.. Bendix, now
a consultant to the aviatio COM

several agreements entered into
with Robert Bosch Co. of Stuttgard,
Germany, and Siemans Of Berlin,
both manufacturers of aircraft
parts, and then produced cor
respondence in which German
firm asked Bendix not to supply in
struments developed in Germany to
Canada because of the war.
Denies Interference.
Isn't it fact" Mr.. Toland asked
Mr. Bendix, that your company
interferred with the war effort of
Canada and Australian"
Il wouldn't say So" Mr.. Bendix
replied, adding that the company
had been very cooperative"
Representative Mas. Republican,
of Minnesota questioned the fairness
of saying the company "interferred"
with Canada's war effort on the
grounds that it might not have as
sisted" it.

Mems Title Is Vacant;
Champ Jane Stouffer
Seen as Losinq Hers

As Washington's only flnalists In
the recent Eastern table tennis tour

Hazi will be overwhelming favorites
to win the mems and women's s
championships of the District in
the annual tourney at the Columbia
Courts today and tonight.
First-round matches are scheduled
to start at o'clock, with finals being
held tonight.
A new mems champ is certain to
be crowned inasmuch as Stan
Fields, who copped male honors last
year, is not competing.
Jane Stauffer is the defending
women's titleholder, but in face of
such opposition as that provided by
Mrs. Hazi and Carolyn Wilson, her
place on the throne is shaky, to say
the least.
Although Hazi is the No. l con-
tender for the crown left vacant by
Shields, Elias Schuman, Lou Gorin
and Norman Dancy hope to have
something to say about it before the
last point is scored. All four have

Eagles in Bad Way
For Series Clash
With Sea Gu|Is

Riddled by injuries and disbar-
ments, the Washington hockey
Eagles, stretching out their season
far into spring, take the ice at At
lantic City Tuesday night in a game
against the Sea Gulls which may
decide the United States Amateur
Hockey Association title.
Paul Courteau. high-scoring Eagle
center, has been barred from At
lantic City games. Slender Ken
Ullyot is out with a repetition OF
an old shoulder injury, while blond
Freddie Weaver has a twisted ankle
and may be through for the season
Anyhow it's sure these three won't
be on skates when the Eagles move
out in the second from the last game
of the season.
Currently they are on top in the
playoffS, in front of the JohnStown
Bluebirds, having gone ahead by
whipping Atlantic City, GA, in an
overtime clash at Riverside Friday
night. If they whip the Gulls Tues
day they at least will tie for the
title, and force the Bluebirds to win
two straight to get into the tie
And if they tie, the title will be
decided on total goals scored.
The Eagles finished fourth in the
regular league season. Now they
are on top in the playoffs against
the same teams. One wonders why
the playoffs, or why the full league
season if there are to be playoffs.
