Baruch, who was head Of the War
Industries board in the last war, has
been. harping on this point for
months. He urged congress more
than year ago to adopt very high
excess profits tax to take away all
the war profits from industry; and
at the same time he urged the
President to clamp down on wages
as well as prices.
The President actually got little
irritated at Baruch's pounding away
on this theme. Today, however,

TORONTO, Aug. 22.-Professional
hockey's wartime future in the
United States and Canada still is In
doubt today, its status apparently
unchanged by discussions during
yesterdays closed meeting of repre-
sentatives from five major circuits
Frank Calder, president of the
National Hockey League, said after
the meeting that the only action was
the waving of the rule that Junior
hockey players must obtain the per-
mission OF the Canadian Amateur
Hockey Association before turning
pro.
That was done to give the play
for-pay loops a chance to obtain
talent and reinforce clubs riddled
by enlistments.
The agreement Is not final, but
must be submitted for approval to
the directors of the National Hockey
League. the GAIA, American
Hockey League, American Hockey
Association and the International
Ice Hockey Association.
AS to hockey's wartime future,
Calder would only say I'VE are en-
tirely In the hands of the govern
ment." A decision from the Cana
dian government is expected soon

bility Of continuing the pro leagues

championships of Washington.
Southern Maryland, Northern Vir-

This decision was reached today

the management of The Stars an
nual tournament in which the titles
are decided.
Round Robin 10 Decide.
Sixteen high scorers in a 10o-shoe
qualification round, ended last night,
will shoot round robin Of 50-point
games. The winner will be the
Metropolitan Area champion. The
other titles will go to those winning
the most games compared with
contestants in their separate sec
tors.
Heretofore, 16 pitchers have quail
fed for each sector and played elm
nations for the titles, with late
survivors moving on into tourna-
ment for the Metropolitan Area
crown.
For 13 years this has been a
drawn-out affair, requiring as long
as fortnight. Under the new sys-
tenn it is likely the tournament will
be run off in two or three evenings.
Main reason for the change was
transportation. Both pitchers and
spectator under the new setup not
only will save gas and rubber, in
the cases Of most. but enjoy. it Is
believed, a better show. In the
past, stars were paired against the
mediocre in early rounds and dull
doings resulted. Probably at no
time during the round robin will
there be an uninteresting moment.

hand, the tournament packs more

than nine topped the coveted 300
mark in the 100-shoe test and an
other, Clayton Henson, defending

Robinson Likely

NEW YORK, Aug. Exactly 40

Nate Lewis. the bald eagle of the
Boul Mich who has heard lot of
eyebrow-l lifting episodes in his long
span, got the kick of his life.
Which really is dipping back into

story teller and fight manager.
This particular night, his fighting
sensation, Billy Thom, after scoring
his 18th knockout in 13 starts. said.
Mate, don't get me any more fights
I'm quitting"
Billy was the kind OF a kid who
took six punches to land one. but
once he landed the roof fell in on
the other fighter. This night he hap
pened to look into mirror and saw
what the other guy had given him
before he turned the lights out. He
got an education quickly.
According to the oldest inhabit-
ants, Billy was the last fighter to
bow out with record that never
showed a defeat. Before him there
were the lightweight champion, Jack
McAuliffe, and Bantamweight Boss
Jim Barry.
None Menaces Robinson.
And now along comes Robinson to
threaten to turn the trick again. AT

Shank's charges and ree-wheelins
wallops looked as if they might

ben made two mistakes.
The first was when he showed ur
at the Garden. The second was when
he caught Sugar Ray shot on the
whlskers early in the second round.
This second error shook Robinson
up and acted like stepping on the
starter Of your car. 1t made Rays
engine explode.
He foored Reuben four times. The
fourth time the referee gave Shank
his hat and told him the show was
over. And even Reuben was con-
