With entries to close at noon Fri
day Mrs. Charles w. Tully of Indian
Spring. tournament chairman for
the Women's District Golf Associa-
ton, expects a large entry in the
class B tourney for The Evening
Star Trophy. The event, open to
players with handicaps over 18, will
be played at the Chevy Chase Club
next Tuesday.
Chevy Chase is one of the fortu-
nate clubs around town, in. being
directly on a bus line, the same line
which runs farther out to Columbia.
Because of this the tourney prob
ably will draw banner entry list.
I'VE have heard from a few clubs
and the entry list is around 30 now -
Mrs Tully said. But we expect
many more between now and Fri
day.
This event may bring the biggest
entry of the year" said Mrs. Walter
L. Weible, president of the WDGA.
Two tournaments have been post
poned, but this one at club which
can be reached by convenient
transportation should be very pop
ular."
Winner Will Get Bond.
Following usual custom The Star
will present a War bond to the low
net winner. Mrs. Charles B. Hart
man of Indian Spring, who won
last year, has lowered her handicap
and now is in class A and ineligible
to play in class B events
Several Washington senior links
men are planning to play later this
week in the national senior golf
tourney at the Apawamis Club of
Long Island. John F. McCarron of
Manor, Walter r. Tuckerman of
Burning Tree, Col. Edward Clifford
Of Chevy Chase and Ray H. Pick
ford of Columbia are among those
expected to compete in the event
for men of SIS and over.
The United States Senior Golf
Association long has held these af-
fairs, described as among the best"
golf events held annually. Seniors
come from all over the country to
play at Apawamis. The champion

Pep Plans 10 Settle
Title Arguments by
Beating Bato|o
Sure He'll Be Champion
In New York, Boy State
After Fight Tonight
BY BILL KING,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


BOSTON, June 8.-While the
boxing solons of Massachusetts, and
New York prolonged their disagree
ment in dignified reticence, Willie
Pep, the fast-punching Hartford
youngster, was confident that he
would settle their dispute by again
defeating Sal Bartolo of Boston to-
night in the initial defense OF his
disputed featherweight champion
ship in a l5-round bout at Braves
Field.
Pep, winner of SIS of his 66 pro-
fessional starts. was crowned a
champion by the New York COM
mission when he defeated Chalky
Wright. Now that body insists that
he can defend its title only under
its jurisdiction. The Massachu-
sets commissioners. however, have
given the Pep-Bartolo fight their
blessings and have announced they
will recognize the winner as the
126-pound champion.
Would Reap Before Induction.
That argument, as BELTS a 81
favorite, has made little or no i'm
preston on Pep, who is awaiting a
July call from his draft board. He
appears very eager to be done, sue
cessfully, of course, with Bartolo,
pocket his 100000 guarantee and
then accept another five-fgure offer
to defend his title against either
predecessor Wright, Jackie Callura
the NBA featherweight champion,
or both, before he gets the draft
boards call
AS far as Bartolo is concerned. the
canny Pep has prepared himself for
another bruising engagement. When
they clashed here in an overweight
match in April, Pep was declared
the winner by only single point
after 10 furious rounds.
During the sixth Bartolo was on
the verge of registering an upset
knockout, only to be outsmarted by
a sadder and wiser Pep during the
last three frames.
II had Pep cooked. but I was too
impatient and ne got away from
me" Bartolo explained.
Knows He Has Task.
Il thought Bartolo was an easy
chump and I gave him a couple of
openings, Pep confessed. He really
can punch. But he'll never get me
giving him another chance like
that
This controversial clash. the first
outdoor title" extravaganza in Bos-
tons fstic history, is expected
to attract a 25, 900 crowd and gate
receipts of S75 1000. Due to dim-out
regulations. it will go on at $50 pm.

"Wildlife Refugees" by DR.. Ira N.
Gabrielson and does not sound too
interesting, but as the fascinating
story of the rehabilitation of our
wild waterfowl flights unfolds. the
title is forgotten. Wildfowlers find
in each interesting page the value of
the refugees in America and ample
reason why their size and number
should be increased as quickly as
possible
Carl Shoemaker, National Wild
life Federation, says it is must"
for all followers of the winged hordes
that take over our marshes and
waterways each fall.
The first reports of the waterfowl
on the Canadian nesting grounds
substantiate the early spring promise
of plenty of water in most areas. The
various estimates run from 100000
900 to l50000.000. This is an indi-
cation that the 1943 flights will be
greater than even the most ancient
oldtimer can remember Refugees
on the Wintering grounds have been
responsible tor much of this increase.
With the strict hunting regula-
tions in force continental waterfowl
population has increased approxi-
mately 400 per cent in a decade.
There now are more than 100000
acres in the 1874 waterfowl refugees
and resting areas down the fyWays,
without which the birds often would
fail to complete their annual mi
grations or find winter food to start
them back in the spring in good
condition.
The saturation point has been
reached on many of these refugees.
Wise administration of the still in
creasing size of the flights is OF
greater importance now than ever
before. 1t might be that more and
larger refugees will be the answer,
or that wildfowlers will be allowed
still greater privileges than they en-
joyed in 1912.
Perhaps the Fish and Wildlife
Service will follow the recommended
ton of David Aylward, president OF
the National Wildlife Federation,
and consider the establishment OF a
system of waterfowl management
areas where the annual surplus OF
birds will be cropped in sound and
conservative manner.
The additional funds needed for
such an undertaking could come
from an increase of 81 in the price
of the duck stamp.

BY one or more OF the CZechS he was
supposed to have reduced to slavery
at the command Of the boss in Ber-
lin. With Brian Donlevy and Anna
Lee in the principal roles, it is told
at tempo that is supposed to wear
your emotions to a shred but sue
ceeds rather in achieving much more
wear and tear upon the patience.
You will find, no doubt, that Direc-
tor Fritz Lang was in less of hurry
10 make his point made than you
are to hear 1t made.
In telling how the gallant, uncon-
querable Czechs disposed of the GAL
lows genius, Mr.. Lang felt himself to
be a man with mission instead of
realizing that the Czechs were the
ones with the mission and had al
ready carried it out.
Apart from this conspicuous fault,
"Hangmen Also Die" is no better or
worse than the run of the mill anti
Nazi screen dramas. In fact, it is
the complete product of the stand
ard formula. Its Nazis, without ex-
ception, are the blood -lusting type
with demonic CLEANS in their eyes
and those high pitched voices with
which the cinema likes to impugn
their manhood. They are pictured
at their favorite phases of conquests,
beating defenseless elderly women,
shooting scholars and poets, and
otherwise ravaging humans and the
humanities. The routine, for dra-
matte purposes, has become too IA
nliliar to engender the old fury,
circumstance which dictates that
Hollywood would be wiser now to
leave the enemy to the armed forces
which have grown strong enough to
take over.
