FLAG DAY WITH
 BIG PARADE AT
 HAMILTON PARK
Special Ceremonies Be. tween City Amateur
 League Contests

The City Amateur League will. present a special attraction Sunday afternoon at the Hamilton park field with its weekly contests. Be- tween the first and second games of the day, there will be special Flag Day ceremonies with the local schoolboy mines as the honored guests.
 The exercises will be staged im- mediate1y following the opening game of the day between the Brook lyn A. c. and Mill Plain and will show 8 number of local drum corps along with all of the schooloby teams in the Public and Parochial and Freshmen baseball league. Dur, ing the exercise the American Le- zion will present three trophies to the championship teams of the res- pctive races.
 All teams of the three leagues will march to the. diamond and then the City League players will join in a march to the flag pole where the ex- ercises will take place. Immediate ly following, the feature game of the day in the City League will take place with the Overlooks clashing with the Tribunes in the battle for second place. Both clubs have scored triumphs in three of their four con- tests to date and oddly enough, the only defeat that either team suffer- ed was at the honds of the Sacred Hearts and both scores showed the East End crew on the long end of 3-2 scores. That only gives portion of how evenly matched the teams are. The Tribes opened the season as the co-favorites along with Brooklyn while the Looks were looked upon as another last place club. the same as they finished 8 year ago. However, Bob Bansiger's charges have been nothing short of sensational thus far with their now famed late inning rallies. The Tribes will send Joe Lenzi, New Haven star to the hill, the Looks retaliating with Bob Malone, the loops leading hurler with three straight triumphs.
 The opening game of the day on the first field will bring together the league leading Brooks and the Mill Plain A. c. The Brooks have lost a number of stars to the professional ranks and the army thus far and will probably have a few new faces in uniform. Teddy Kobrin and Frank Karvelis of the Crosby High team will be seen with the cham pionS in the contest. Roy Johnson will start for the Brooks while Joe Dennis or Ray Dunn will work for Mill Plain.
 The Tommies and the Washing ton Hills, two of the oldest rivals of the loop will meet in the opener of diamond No. 9. Both have won but once in four tries. Fred Jacavino will pitch for the Tommies while Junior Carroll will fire for the Hills, The other contest on the second field will show the Sacred Hearts, wit ha two and two record dangling with the Aviglianese. Lefty Colopin- to will pitch for the East Finders while Frankie Place will go for Manager Tony Romanellos boys.
 The largest crowd of the season is expected to attend the pair of twin bills.

Davis and EweL Sprint It OutInA.A.U.
Weed Tackles MocMitcheII in Fine Field at 1900 Meters
BY BURTON BENJAMIN

NEA ScEV1Ce SUd11 correspondent
 New York, June 2.-Reminiscent of the days of Ben Eastman and Bill Carr, when intersectional riv- airy was at its keercst, East tackles West in the National A. A, U. track and field championships at Tribor- ough Stadium here, June 1920.
 Proceeds of the two-day meet, probably the last coming out par ty for track and fields social reg ister for the duration, go to the Army Emergency Relief fund.
 Three events-the 100, 200 and 1900 meters-should find intersec- tional aces chest to chest.
 In the sprints, it's Barney Ewell of Penn State, who is defending champion in the 100, against Har- old Davis of California and the Olympic Club of San Francisco, 200 meter titleholder.
 Two years ago, Ewell finished behind Davis in both events at the A. A. U. championships in Fresno. Last summer in Philadelphia, the Negro flyer gained some measure of revenge by taking the 100 in :10.3. Davis copped hte 200 in :20.4
 In scoring his third straight triple in the IC4-A meet this sea- son, the Nittany Express ran 100 yards in :O9.5 and 22O in :20.5, al- though a mild breeze invalidated both marks.
 Davis, undefeated this year, has world-record tying :09.4 for 100 yards up for consideration.
 An cratic starter, he came from behind on two occasions to nail Billy Smith of San Jose State.
 WEED RATED BETTER
 THAN LOU ZAMPERINI
 At 1900 meters, de ndin g champion Leslie MacMitchell of New York University faces 8 pow erful field with LeRoy Weed of Southern California; G l b e t Dodds, the bespectacled divinity student; Don Burnham of Dart mouth, who beat MacMitchen in the Metropolitan A. A. U.: and Earl Mitchell, the. Indiana sopho- more, capable of winning.
 CalifornianS believe Weed, who. like MacMitchell, is a racer and not a clock runner, will avenge two previous defeats by the Flying Scot. MacMitchell beat Weed in the Compton, Calif., Invitation at 1500 meters in the good time of 3:51 and in the N. c. A. A. mile in Berkeley in 4:l0.4.
 Undefeated this spring, Weed ran the mile in 4:15.8, 4:15.2, 4:151. As guest in the Pacific A. A. U. championships, he ran the two-mile ] in . phenomenal 9:04.6. Observers

 When I was in Zurich" he says T used to get the American news papers and kept abreast of baseball and Big Ten football.
 Tn 1940. before the Michigan Ohio State game, sent Fritz Cris. Ter and Forest Evashevski 8 cabll from Zurich. It read: Your mos distant University of Michigan alumni club hopes you will didicate one touchdown to me-
 "They scored six times that day so I always figured one of them was 8 Zurich Special"
 Even in war-torn Berlin, Congel managed to keep informed on sports.
 T heard the last half of the Michigan-Minnesota game on the radio last fall," he advises. T would have to pick out tough game like that to listen to-"
 Michigan hasn't won from Min nesota since 1892.
 Conger became the correpson- dents sports authority at Bad Nau- helm. He instered a note in the Bad Nauheim Pudding" American paper at the spa: Anyone wish the scores of 1941 football games, please contact c. B. Conger."
 One of the chief diversions was softball. They had one old ball and bat and staged many wild games.
 "We used Naval attaches $ pouches for bases reports Conger, After each game, doctors would sew up the ball.
 The Yankees never play with any more spirit than that gang. The Germans thought we were go- ing nuts.

THE CHATN PuZZIR

THE CHAIN PUZZLE
 New England radio listeners will probably go clear out of this world next week when they begin trying to figure ont which station Is on what network and why. Several of the stations in Connecticut and neighboring states win change their network affiliations next Monday, while the Colonial Network win dis- appear completely, merging with the Yankee Network. WATR will be among those stations affected by the shift, but in . minor way. On Boston originated programs, listeners will hear the Yankee Net work cue rather than the Colonial Network Identification. Several new shows will appear on the WATR schedule, among them the Yankee House Party, which was mentioned briefly in this column yesterday. A late press release on this daily 1l:30 a. m. show says that variety will be its keynote. Bobby Norris, long the leader Of the Singing Strings, will conduct the 14-piece orchestra. With each man e soloist in his own right, the or. chestra is equipped to play dance, chamber and concert music. A new singing team, Ruth Owens and George Wheeler, will be featured prominently on the program. Oth- CTS to be heard include George and Dixie, hilbilly stars, Ted Cole, vocal- ist, and Leo Egan, master of cere- monies. Guest on the first broadcast Monday will be Jack Cad- digan, who wrote Rose of No Mans Land" during the First World War, and has just turned out an. other promising song for World War II called 'Give, Work and Fight"

Donald M. Nelson, chairman or the WIPE, will be the speaker on the Mutual program Tight Against n- flation" which moves into the S:lS spot on WATR tonight. In his tax, titled we Have Made Our Choice" " it is expected that Nelson will view the fight against imitation as 1t bears on the battle of production with all that the struggle involves. He may be expected to hit out-as only Donald Ne lson can-at those who have been hoarding war ma terials, hoping for a speculative m. crease in prices, and who have been belligerent about the measures that the government will take to get those materials into production. He may also lambast price bootleg gers" warning that this Is not a game in which people show now smart they are in evading the law' as under prohibition.

Enchanted Hour

II there were but some fragment OF

That ne might saue against a Tins

Some living particle to store away.
A charm to foil deceptive memory:
This light that trembles on the ne,o

The fame OF Judas trees tn April

or hidden thrush that sings its bitter
brief
Chorale of notes and then With song
Is done.
But no, De must prepare to let this
pass
And so resign ourselpes to age and
change;
TO frost that Dill In time destroy this
grass,
TO time that In its season mill
Us both, and ledpe less than this song

An echo Of this laughter, this bright

Punumu Agreement

Another good example of practical
cooperation for Western Hemisphere
defense Is provided by the agreement
Just signed between the United States
and Panama, giving our armed forces
the right to develop and occupy nu-
merous defense areas in the Pana-
manian Republic for the duration of
the war emergency. While this
agreement is based on special in
terest Of the two nations in protec-
ton Of the Panama Canal, 1t exem-
plifies the Good Neighbor spirit OF
collaboration in the face of common
danger that has brought unprece-
dented unity Of action among most
OF the American republics since the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
It b noteworthy that the objeetives
