NAsTIs ARE NOT OUT YET


 Reading endless stories of Russian successes and hearing them touted over the radio has brought many over-opt imi & tic souls to feel that all that remains to do is some sort of hopping up process.
 The turning of the tide in north Af- rica and the success of German counter attacks in the Crimea shows that with favorable weather conditi ons the Nasties are still very much to be reckoned with.
 The Crimea is a much warmer battle- field than the 40 below zero northern sectors where the Russians, undi scouraged by the cold, very much at home in such weather, are able to hurl the Nasties back constantly on wide front. When the weather moderated in the Crimea the Germans revived like flies in spring.
 On the British and on us is falling the brunt of the Jap b1itz and the Jap successes in the south Pacific should appa11 the hardest soul.

Jaunts for Stanford
Athletes Vetoed by
Chancellor Wilbur

Py the Associated Press.
PALO ALTO, Calf, May 90
Chancellor Ray Lyman Wilbur We
toed the action of the Stanford
Board of Athletic Control that would
have sent track, golf and tennis
athletes to national intercollegiate
championships this summer.
The chancellor said Stanford's
whole athletic structure has gone
to war"
DR.. Wilbur's veto also nullifled
plans to award gold watches to the
Indians national championship bas-
ket ball squad members.
The Board of Athletic Control last
Saturday had reversed itself on a
decision not to send athletes to the
national competitions next month
It's action was not made public,
however, pending a report from the
head of the university
I'VE must operate on a deficit
basis or upon very cautious
and compressed financial program,
which probably still is possible at
least for some time We have some
reserves to carry us through for a
short period" DR.. Wilbur said.
He added that there would be no
objections to the trips if money were
raised by private subscription. The
Stanford golf team is the Defend
ing national champion. The tour
nament is scheduled for the Univer-
sity of Notre Dame course.

He's Game Fish in Maine.
In Maine the striper is sports
fish, while in New York, Rhode Is
land and Massachusetts the law
prohibits their taking, or offering
for sale, under 16 inches. New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania have mini
mum size limits of 18 inches, but
Delaware and Virginia continue on
with the destructive limit OF 10
inches. Maryland's II inches is no
better and the II inches required
by Connecticut and North Carolina
does not accomplish any real good.
The District of Columbia, the
greatest capital city in all the world
today, the city which should be the
yardstick of all others, has limit of
9 inches for the striper, which allows
the illegal catches of both Maryland
and Virginia to be dumped in our
markets. If we had a l6-inch mini
mum limit it would help consider
ably in bringing the Free State and
the Old Dominion in line.

ATLANTIC CITY, May 26.-With
Ed Dudley, their president, striding
majestically out in front, the men,
bers of the Professional Golfers As
sociation went into the second and
deciding half of their qualifying test
at the Sea View Country Club today.
Bid Ed, 40 and slow moving but
still possessing the form that once
caused England's Henry Cotton to
label him to "smoothest swinger in
golf" shot very fine 66 yesterday
to lead all his young men at the end
of the first 18. 1t was six strokes
under par.
But that was only half way, and
decided nothing. The payof 18 was
scheduled today. The 81 low scorers
who were to join Defending Cham
pion Vic Ghezzi in the match play
starting tomorrow still had to win
their places. Inasmuch as % players
shot par 70 or better yesterday, 1t
looked like a 36-hole total of no
higher than 145 would be needed.

They were grinning all over the
place and shaking Dudley's big paw
and asking him how he did it. All
Ed knew was that he had played
shockingly good golf and sunk one
putt of about 40 feet.
Before Dudley came in near the
last of the 101 entrants, the first
days leadership had been shared by
three players at 67-Sammy Byrd,

much better than his initial II if
he was to retain his interest after to-
day. Walt Hagen reached the first
tee on time, much to the consterna-
ton of the starter, and did his best,
but a 79 virtually washed the five
time former champion out of the
meet.
A new record for P. G. A qualify

A War stamp for each round OF

well-known Washington amateur
linksman and former team captain
at Indian Spring.
why not buy War stamp every
time you step on the first tee?"
asked Melvin. Have the pro keep
a supply of stamps in the golf shop
and sell one to every golfer before
he starts. Over the period of a
year golfers would buy lot CT

must run well into the thousands.
If every golfer would lay aside a
quarter to buy a War stamp, or
actually buy the stamp every time
he plays, the total over year would
be tremendous. A quarter repre-

Where in past years the average
fisherman bounced around offshore
in search of the elusive white mar

more.
