Demaret Gains
on Par 5 Holes

1I11(ASOt Juilc ICs--JAilllily
Demaret, professional at Plum
Hollow. Detroit, was very much in
the running starting today's Sec
ond round of the Hale America
golf tournament. due in no small
measure to his ability TO play the
par 5 holes.
Demaret had a four-under-par
6SA at Ridgenfoor Country Club
yesterday, only three strokes more
than the two pace-setters-Otey
Crisman the surprise golfer from
Alabama. and Mike Tvrnesa, one
of the seven famous golfing BROTH
ers.
.Ridgemoor has four par 5 holes
and Demaret birdied three of
them. That was not surprising to
his fellow pros, who will tell you
that because of his ability to put
on the power when il counts this
smiling Texan can play the long
holes with the best in the business.
5 BRIDES, l BOGEY
Demaret had FIVE brides in all,
but gave back one of the strokes
thus picked up when he took a
5 on the par a sixth, his only
DOGGY. Trouble in the rough cost
him the extra stroke. He had mines
of 35 and 80 compared to Ridge
moor's par of two 36S.
Second place among the Michi-
gan golfers was taken by Marvin
Stahl. the Lansing pro. who was
only one stroke more than Dema-
ret with SO. Stahl burned up the
first nine with a 80, but was linn
tied to a par Sc coming back.
After three brides and six pars
going out, Stahl went one over on
the short eleventh, then got shat
stroke back with a birdie four on
the fourteenth.
Glib Sellers, Edgewood pro and
Michigan Open champion. was
next among the Wolverines with
36-34-70. Two brides were offset
by bogeys going out, but on the
second half he birdied the four
lteenth and sixteenth and had pars
on the seven other holes.
2 MORE UNDER PAR
Two Detroit pros-Joe Before

Jimmy johnson of Warren Valley

New Britain Police
 May Hold Twin Jobs
Each Cop May Work Four Hours Daily Outside and
 Up to Eight Hours on His Day Off

New Britain, Sept. MA severe manpower shortage in this war-in- dustry center, and a desire to give policemen an opportunity to in- crease their earning power to meet rising living costs prompted the Police Board Tuesday night to vote permission to members of the force to work part-time in jobs outside the department.
 Commissioner Harry w. Hatsing proposed the move, stating that he had given the matter considerable study and could not see how it would seriously affect policeman's efficiency. Under his proposal, which won the unanimous approval of the other board members, each man may work up to four hours day outside of his police hours, may work up to eight hours on his day off, but may not give more than "A hours weekly to other employment.
 Each policeman who wishes to take advantage of the new move must file an application with the board indicating the nature of the overtime work he plans to do and the hours he wishes to devote to this outside work. Any abuse of the privilege will result in summons to the offending policeman to ap- pear before the board and will sub ject him to possible loss of the privilege.
 The move was hailed with ex- pressionS of keen satisfaction by members of the department who learned of it after the board meet ing, ard they indicated that they will lose no time in taking advan- tage of the permission, which re- moves & longstanding taboo against outside employment policemen. This taboo was based on provision of the city ordinances stating that Any policeman who shall engage in any private business interfering at all with his duties as policeman, shall be deemed to have rendered his resignation as policeman, and the same shall be accepted by the Board of Police Commissioners and ais place declared vacant" The beard will take the stand that out side employment now, particularly tn war industry, does not interfere with a policeman's regular duties.
