Plan for Rep|enishin!
Supply Of Liquor
Laid Before Nelson

BY the Associated Press.
The Chemical Division of the
War Production Board was dis
closed last night to have laid be-
fore WPB Chairman Donald M.
Nelson a whisky recess" plan
under which distillers could go
back to liquor making for at
least a brief time.
That was reported by an ofIicial
who said it probably would be taken
up with the War Food Administra-
ton to determine whether the Ma
tons grain supplies are sufficient
for period of whisky making, pos
sibly this autumn.
No legal whisky has been made in
this country since October, 1912,
when distilleries converted 100 per
cent to making industrial alcohol
for the Government and war indus
tries. Heavy consumption therefore
has caused stocks to dwindle.
Shipping Conditions Improve.
Factors pointing to a vacation
from industrial alcohol making in
cluded:
/. Improved shipping conditions
soon may allow mounting supply
of blackstrap molasses to move from
the West Indies to this country.
Molasses was the principal prewar
material in industrial alcohol max
ing and if shipments bear up, some
Eastern distilleries may start using
it instead of grain in their stills.
2. There was no official comment
from the VIA, but informed sources
said there were indications the
agency might go along with a
whisky-making period. Whea t,
rye and corn crops-essentials to
whisky-have improved recently.

Figures Were Impressive.
These casualty figures were the
most impressive yet announced by
Moscow for any comparable period
in the Russian-German conflict.
Moscow said they were inflicted in
less than seven weeks during the
grueling campaign that has resulted
in Russian recapture of Orel, Bel
gorod, Karachev and other strong
holds leading to the now-threat-
ened prize bastions of Bryansk and
Kharkov.
Bled not only of men, the Ger
mans staggered under materiel losses
at time when their homeland fac
tories are being bombed to rubble

based in Britain.
The. Soviet bulletin said the Red
Army since July 5 had captured
S75 tanks. 1,274 guns, 3, 429 machine
guns and 4,230 trucks. In addition,
the Russians destroyed 4,60o Axis
planes, 6,400 tanks, $500 guns and
more than 10000 trucks in vicious
battles flaming along a 5oo-mile

|Whir|Y Plans Tune-up
Prior 10 Handicap

Possibly May Compete
Twice Before $4,000
Roee on February II
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Ben Jones, trainer Of Whirlaway,
has let 1t be known that the horse
with the $560,91l bank roll wasn't
transferred from Miami to New Or
leans just to visit the famous French
quarter.
"Whirly thrives on racing" Jones
told Fairgrounds Manager julius
Reeder and the racing gentry imme-
diately interpreted the statement to
mean that the Calumet Farm charg-
er would start twice before the
$4,000 New Orleans Handicap on
February 81.
There are no extremely rich races
on the New Orleans card other than
the handicap, but several $2,50o
purses dot the program and 1t is
likely that Whirly will start in one
or more OF them to keep in shape.
With racing going ahead on an
abbreviated schedule 1t is probable
that the s25, 1000 Wood Memorial at
the Jamaica track in New York will
be the richest race OF the winter
and spring season and that the Ken
lucky Derby, with a value OF SIS 900,
Will be the richest Of the year.
Monday was unique in that 1t was
the first weekday in 13 years on
which no United States track oper-
ated. But that condition will prevail
on each following Monday until
February % when Oaklawn opens.
BY that time 1t Is possible that
Bay Meadows in California also will
be in action once more Havana's
racing season opens Thursday OF
this week for an undetermined num-
ber OF days, but as in the past the
plant will operate only on certain
days.
Programs definitely will be run OF
on Thursdays and Saturdays and
possibly on Sundays.

New Books on Fishing, Hunting Provide

reading of sports af1eld and astream
rather than active participation.
Happily this year when there is lit
tie chance for a spot Of midwinter

monthly publications a wealth Of
new books covering adequately every
phase Of outdoors sports.
Latest off the press is "Sure You

book deemed the last word for in
formation on tackle requirements
regardless Of the type Of fishing.
Ways to Enjoy Fishing.
Majors latest book proves that II
travel restrictions do not stop the
fisherman wishing to dunk q baited
hook, neither should shortages Of
tackle. He shows how dime store
trinkets, odds and ends found in
kitchen cabinets and around the
cellar may be fashioned into lures
and other items. He tells Of some
new angling methods and draws at

itself. And finally he explains how
easy 1t is to fish even without these

MIAMI. Fla, Jan. 13.-The gay
throng, celebrities and the cheering
were missing today-the day Hialeah
Park was scheduled to inagugrate its
glittering 46 days Of mid-winter rae
ing and set the Miami season in full
swing.
Hialeah didn't open, nor did Trop-
ical Park see any racing in the last
week of its fall season slated to close
yesterday. The ban on pleasure
driving served effectively to black
out horse racing here.
A year ago a fashionable crowd Of
1858 fans celebrated Hialeah's OPEN
ing by wagering $454,740. From the
race track they made rounds Of
night clubs and bright spots. Many
reached their hotels as the dawn
broke, slept through the day and
made ready for another night.
Now the best dressed people wear
khaki or navy blue. War factories
hum through the night, as places of
entertainment once did. The bright
lights have been snapped off under
dimout regulations. and a majority
of the luxurious hotels have been
stripped of their trappings and made
into barracks for soldiers and sailors.
Expensive cars with out-of-State
tags, commonplace a year ago, are
a curiosity this year. Traffic in gen.
eral has dwindled to a trickle of
private cars and bigger proportion
of busses, taxicabs and military
vehicles. Miamians are slow in TAX
ing to bicycles.
The dimout Of resort activities has
left two dog tracks and the Jai-Alai
fronton operating. Two other dog
tracks have closed. Only one-third
of the night clubs found in the area
a year ago are open now. Bars and
juke joints, on the other hand, have
increased and are doing land Office
business in beer, sandwiches and
canned music. Daytime streets are
crowded and few merchants COM
plain of lack Of trade.

Chompion Generals
BY GEORGE HUBER.

A good argument can be started
any time about whether basket ball
as played by the District public
high schools is better than the
brand produced by the other class A
schools here and in the suburban
areas.
The annual Metropolitan tourna-
ment at the end of the season
doesn't always decide it and in re-
cent years this has been won by
schools In both groups. Too, both
groups have their good and in
different teams and a comparison
of records only makes for more
heated. discussions.
It's much too early to decide any,
thing definite this season except
to indicate a trend, but a COM
parison of records of games between
public high and the outside quints
gives the public high quints a fair
edge so far this season. There have
been II games between the two
groups, with the public highs win
ming IL.
Public Highs Have Big Day.
Yesterday was the. best day so
far this season for the public highs.
They won three of the four games
played against outside fives. Lead
ing in this was Tech, undefeated
IN four games, which nosed out
st. Johns, rated among the best
outside the series, 40-37. Also win
ners among the public highs were
Eastern, which swamped Washing
ton-Lee, last years Metropolitan
champion which made its debut
yesterday, 1918, and Central,
which p downed Bethesda Chevy
Chase, 27-18. On the other side
was Gonzaga's 1928 triumph over
Anacostia.
The Tech-St. Johns meeting was
heated all the way. with seldom
more than a few points separating
the two. The Johnnies, on goals
by Jim Hassett and Sleepy Thomp-
son.. took a 40 lead in the first six
minutes, but two quickies by Hank
Pizza tied things at A at the end
Of the opening period. Keith Har-
der, the Maroons' smooth center,
then had hot hand and hooped
six points to lead Tech to a 1912
edge at the half.
Match Point for Point.
The teams matched point for
point the rest Of the way, and late
in the final period the Johnnies
managed to pull into a 37-37 tie.
With only As seconds remaining,

Generals Lack Experience.
The difference between Eastern
and Washington Lee yesterday
wasn't as great as the 1918 score
favoring Eastern would indicate.
The Ramblers, however, are getting
better all the time, with defense
hard to crack, some good shooting
from all angles and distances and
plenty Of reserve material. In fact,
Coach Dallas Shirley used several
second -stringers to start yesterdays
game, and they did exceptionally
we'll.
Washington-Lee in its opener in
dicated the need for more expert
ence. The Generals have a fast
breaking, well-balanced quint, but
yesterday they just couldn't buy
basket. They had innumerable
heartbreakers that trimmed the hoop
and dropped outside and didn't
score from the floor until the last
period, when they counted four
times.
Fred Seaton and Billy Deck, two
fast little boys, were among East
ern's leading players. Each tailed
three field goals to aid the Rambler
offensive, and on defense they were
In Washington-Lee's way all after
