WASHINGTON. March IS -
Up Secretary of War Stimson
today predicted favorable pro-
gress in the Tunisian campaign,
but said it would be paid for
with heavy casualties.
He attributed successes in the
Tunisian campaign in part to the
series of heavy day and night
bombing attacks on Germany
and German-occupied territory.
These attacks, he told a press
conference, make it necessary
for Germany to keep large num-
bers of fighting planes at home.
The German people, Stimson
said, are demanding greater
fighting plane protection"
against American and British
bombing raids. And "since Ger
many does not know where we
will strike next, she is forced to
dispense these planes throughout
the entire country and occupied
territory"

The War Secretary referred
specifically to two recent raids
on Vegesack near Bremen and
on Wilhelmshaven as remark

Wilson moves around smartly and
doesn't bother with infighting.
Against Danny Petro he displayed
a sharp right that kept the local
slugger at bay all night and brought
on 10th-round knockout,
Wilson has had a world of expert
ence, which figures to help him
against the rough h-and-tumble Lew.
What keeps Wilson from being re-
garded as one-sided favorite is
that, despite his flashy showing
against Petro, he looked only fair
against Jimmy Phillips in a later
fight, although he won handily.
Phillips style is much the same as
Hanbury's and Phillips kept Jackie
off balance much of the time.
Wilson's experience and the men,
ory of his work against Petro make
him favorite at 6-5 or 7-5. This
despite the fact that Callura, Han
bury's victim. twice defeated Jackie.
Can't See Wilson Losing.

OF Wilson's managers, declares: It

They are: AL Gardiner, president
and delegate to the American Ken

president and chairman of the
Bench Committee; Col. G.. l.. King,
second vice president; Gay Forbush,
secretary, and George Patterson,

sent to the American Kennel Club
for permission to hold a show Octo-

fall show of the National Capital

decided whether both shows will be
held on the same grounds as they
were this spring, or If the Old Do
minion show will go back to the
Old Dominion. In either event it
will be two shows in two days, with
but one trip and hotel bill for out
of-town exhibitors.
The Arlington Kennel Club, too,
is talking about fall show. If pos
sible, 1t Is going to arrange a double
date somewhere in Virginia, which
will give local fanciers a real break.
With proper management and sup
port. these shows should pull large
entries from the surrounding ter
ritories. Recent dog shows have
shown that breeders and exhibitors
will go to great lengths to support
any fixture.
Up in the Philadelphia area
which certainly does not lack for

what this organization can do for

Confidence, too, exudes from the

only IL professional fights since
quitting the amateurs year ago,
but in his last one he pulled stun
ming upset when he defeated Jackie
Callura, NBA feather king and twice
conqueror' of Wilson. Then when
Wilson came here and looked great
while knocking out Danny Petro it
was only natural that the two be
matched.
Added Weight a Help.
Lew promises to be even stronger
and smarter against Wilson than he
was against Callura Forced to make
l30 pounds for the latter, he ad-
mitted later he was weak for the
fight, although he didn't appear so
in the ring. This time he can make
l34 pounds, his natural fighting
weight at the moment, and declares
he has the strength and stamina
to Withstand anything Pittsburgh
Jackie can throw.
Styles of the two fighters are diff

throws effective punches with two

is hard to hit and knows how to

Winter Rules in Use,
Tee Ball in Rough
AT Most Clubs
Spheres Reconditioned
Many Times. Courses
Get Less Attention
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Golf, as it Is being played today,
Is far from the tough game sponsor
ed by the gray boards of st. Andrews
and fostered In this country by the
moguls of the United States Golf
Association.
Where, in prewar years, any one
who touched the ball between the
time he put it on tee and the
time he holed out, would be called
nasty names around the locker room,
It's strictly the thing to do nowadays
to tee up the ball in the fairway;
even in the rough, at some clubs.
It's all a long way removed from
the old conception of the game.
The die-hards didn't care whether
the lie was good or bad. They took
the good along with the bad, and
got pretty expert at digging a ball
out of a hole.
But nowadays all lies on the golf
course are good lies, and we don't
mean stories. Those, by the way,
lack the rich, fiavorful, full-bodied'
lies of other years. Locker room
lying land we don't mean reclining)
has degenerated.
Pills Take Punishment.
Change in the way the game is
played (from the st. Andrews con-
ception) stems back to the golf ball
situation, with an assist from the
men who care for the course. Good
golf balls are not easy to come by
nowadays. People who used two new
balls a round now play single ball
three or four rounds, until the poor
pill winds up stripped of it's skin,
with assorted hicks and abrasions
and probably out of round. Then
1t Is sent back to the factory for
reprocessing, gets a new skin and
Is put into play again. The process
may be endless.
The course upkeep men, with little
equipment nowadays, don't clip the
fairways as close as they used to clip
'em. Nor can they spend precious
gasoline keeping the rough clipped
close. Furthermore, when mower
part breaks it isn't easy to replace.
So the fairways no longer are the
Immaculate, closely-clipped stretches
they used to be, nor is the rough
kept down. So winter rules are in
force universally.
Tough on Die Hards.
The whole business is heart wal
lop to the die-hards, but it keeps golf
going in the face of adverse condi-
tions. The diehardS claim it isn't
golf. But what is golf? To most
people it is getting ball off the
ground and into the cup in a rea-
sonable number of strokes. and they
don't care much about rules or die
hards.
It's hard to imagine Joe Blow, who
paid two bits to play at Rock Greek
Park, getting excited about whether
he can tee ball in the fairways Joe
doesn't go in much for rules. ANYHOW.
