 Anton A. Mussert, head of the Dutch Nazi party, was named Header of the Dutch people" by pr. Arthur Seyss-Inquart, Germ a Il commissioner for Holland.
 Mussert and Seyss-Inquart spoke at Q party rally.
 The report that Hitler had de- manded 250,000 conscripted Neither flanders came from Stockholm, through the Soviet news agency Tass which said Hitler made the demand when Seyss-Inquart took Mussert to Berlin to be inspected and approved.
 The Free Dutch radio station here, Radio Orange. gave some ConHrmaClon.
 we wonder whether 1t (Mus- sert's appointment) is part of the program to deliver cannon fodder to Germany in the form of young Netherlands soldiers" 1t said.
 'Mussert has frequently offered this in exchange for power. What will happen now when he has only part of the power Is not clear. It is certain. however, that he is not trusted by the Germans, otherwise they would have taken the whole bait"
 The NaN commissar said that while he intended to remain at the Hague he had decided to move certain of my departments and cer- tain departments of the Dutch administration"

Meet in 18-Hols Match for St. Paul Crown

They finished all square Sunday
with $50 strokes each - eight

Probably more important to
them than the coin is the title,
which will advance the fortunate
winner farther Up the ladder to
fame.
Both, Harbert O; Battle Creek,
Mich, and Harrison, the Ar
kansas Traveller working out of
Harrisburg, Pa, have been tab
bed by their compatriots as the
up-and-coming golfers of the
day - players whose names
might someday rest beside those
of Ben Hogan, Craig Wood, By
ron Nelson and others in the fan
clan. Therefore, an additional
punch has been added to this
playoff. Both boys are former
Texas Open champions, the 27-
year-old Harbert winning it this
year in a playoff with Hogan,
and Harrison taking it in 1888.
Both have figured in quite a bit
of prize money during their
comparatively short bids for
places in COLTS front ranks.
FOUR STROKES BEHIND
Harbert - he's the guy who
whistles while he puts was
four strokes behind leader Gene
Kunes of Philadelphia as the
field entered the last SO holes
yesterday and three behind
Harrison. On the first q holes
of the day, Harbert stood five
under par after firing 60 and
turning in a 35 on the first nine
in the afternoon With nine holes
remaining, he led Harrison by
three strokes.
The drawing Arkansan took
70 and a 36 and appeared lost
in the shuttle while Kunes faded
badly to leave the gate open.
But Harrison settled down to
shoot three straight brides at
the start of the last nine, while
Harbert also fashioned two
brides but nullified them with a
pair of bogies to post a 36 for
II. Coming up to the last green,
Harrison needed a birdie four to
tie. He got it by pitching six
feet from the cup and holing the
putt for dazzling 33 and a SO
for the round.
Jimmy Hines missed six-foot
putt on the last green and fin
ished third with 281, followed in
order by. Johnny Revolta and
