WOMEN

A nationally known life insurance
company reveals in a recent survey
that as of today, 7l.5 per cent of the
women in war industries intend to
keep on working when the war is
over. That is more than 13 million
women, and a source of concern for
the postwar employment planners.
Of course the poll takers point out
that lot of things can happen to
change these 13 million women's
minds once peace returns. Equality Of
pay, seniority and consideration that
many of the feminists have been
pleading for isn't here yet. And if
they don't come along lot of women
will give up the whole idea of work
ing after the war.
Millions of women have done a
mans work, put UP with all the dis
comforts, only to help win the war.
In the meantime they have acquired

Nelson, McSPoden In Golf Bottle?
By OSCAR FRALEY nited PreSs Staff COrresuOndent

New Rochelle, N. Y, June IT. (UP)-Byron Nelson of Toledo, O., was regarded as the man to beat in the Red Cross open today despite the fact he was deadlocked with Mike Turnesa of White Plains N. Y, at 138. AS the field teed off in the third round in the 72-hole golf tourney at Wykagyl country club.
 The reason was that Big Byron is the guy who has won practically everything in the book and was playing blazing but steady golf with consecutive rounds of 69. And the best that little Mike ever had been able to do was finish second in the Canadian and Hale America opens. Turnesa, one of the seven golfing brothers, was hot enough to his own yesterday to shoot a five under pair 6T, which added to his opening 7l, tied him for the the lead
 Not Turnesa, however, but Lam tern-jawed McSpaden of Philadel- phia was expected to provide Nell sons chief opposition as they ham, mered down to the wire. The jug haid" got off with Il that left him in fifth place after the first round but he came storming back yesterday on the second l9-hole round with a 68 that left him just one stroke of the pace. So once again it appeared that the duel would be between these two, the big money winners of the winter circuit.
 Yet, only one stroke back of Mo- Spaden, at l40, was Sgt. Vic Ghezzi of Atlantic City, N. J., the former P.GA. champion, who gained that honor by beating Nelson. The black haired soldier led after the first IS holes with a 6E, but skyrocketed to one-over-par 73 on the second round. Despite his showing yester- day, GhezH cannot be counted out of the running.
 It seemed strictly a battle among these four because next in line were two unknowns, ziggy Mellon of Bronxville, N Y, and Andy Lapola of Wayne, N. J., and these dark horses were a big three strokes back of Ghezzi and five blows away from the leaders.
 Tony Penna of Dayton, O., was seventh with IA and strung out behind him were such widely known links figures as Gene Sarazen, 145; Craig Wood, 146; Sammy Byrd, l47; Paul Runyan, 149; Tony Man ero, 150; Bob Hamilton and Johnny Farrell, each 151; Willie MacFar- lane, 1853; and Leonard Dodson, 157.

HILLS, AvIGS IN LOOP FEATURE;
 TRIBES VS. BAG

The Washington Hills, bent on regaining first place in the City Aamateur League, will resume the campaign in defense of their title with renewed vigor tomorrow after noon, when they clash with the scrappy Aviglianese A. 0. nine in the headline attraction at Hamilton Park at 4 o'clock. In the opening game at 1:45, the Tribunes will hook up with the Brooklyn A. O. The Naugatuck Tommies draw Q bye.
 The Hills, now trailing "Packy" Sheas Tribes by one game, can't afford to lose another If they intend to keep grip on the champion ship laurels won last season. It has already been demonstrated that Pat Quilter's club isn't the formid- able outfit which 1t was in '43 espe- cially in the hitting department. A good pitcher can wreak havoc on the Hills as was proven by Gerry Floods artistic two hitter against them two weeks ago.
 Tomorrow the Quiltermen meet an equally fine pitcher in the Avlgs' Teddy Grabeck who has an old old score to settle with the Hills from the first round. Tony Roman iello's men displayed plenty of po- tent hitting strength in the recent triumph over the Tommies' Johnny Hardenberg by banging out IA hits. The Italian boys were about due to break out in full fury with their bats and now that they have suc- ceeded in showing a real sample of that power hitting, 1t is quite pos- sible that they will be real con- tender the rest of the way. They will be at full strength tomorrow for the Hills and will show the slugging Santillos, the splendid de- fensive duo of Joe and Johnny AL fone at the keystone section, and big larruping Hank Doneski at first.
 Bill Stanton will call the balls and strikes with Jim Mobile on the bases.
 Tribes vs B. A. c.
 In the opener "Packy" Shea's Tribunes should experience little If any trouble from the Brooklyn A. 0. schoolboy outfit which has yet to taste of victory. The B. A. c. appar- ently are set on tabooing better than high school ball players and consequently are due to remail in the doldrums of the cellar. Tn spite of the proven weakness Of the B. A. c. outfit, Manager Shea will take no chances and will show all of his regular starting lineup of Joe Rim aldi and Gerry Flood as battery; "One Hand Heffernan at first, Mullen at second, Sugrue at short and Ray at third, with McGrath, DiVito and Jannetty in the outfield, Frankie Berardi, attempting come back this season and doing a fairly good job of 1t notwithstanding the dearth of hitting behind him, will be on the mound for the Brooks,
 Leno Costaldo will work behind the bat while Al Napoli will make his debut as loop official on the bases.

BONNIES PLAN
 GOLF MATCHES
 FOR WAR LOAN

St. Bonaventure, N. r., June IT, h conjunction with the Fifth War Loan drive St. Bonaventure college authorities announced today that the college will sponsor a program of golf as an incentive to the pur- chase of war bonds. Father Anslem Krieger, O. F. M., director of ath- letics at the college has secured the srevices of the nationally known golfers Harold Jug" McSpaden and Byron Nelson, to appear on the pro- gram on Wednesday afternoon, June 21st.
 McSpaden has been the winters big money winner in the tourna- ments, having won 13,500 dollars in four victories, four second places, a third and a fourth. Last year he won the Tam o'Shanter and in a play-of with Victory Open winner Byrd, he became unofficial national champion.
 Nelson also is among the big money winners and was described recently in the Saturday Evening Post as the crisis kid" Byron seems to do his best playing when the going is toughest and the pres- sure is on.
 The presence of these two stars promises well for the sale of bonds At 1:30 p, m. there will be driving exhibition, followed at 2:30 by a match. McSpaden will team up with Jimmy Stravino, pro at St. Ronaventure, against Nelson and Earl Amidon, local champion who played with Nelson several years ago.

 CANDID STARS
BY GLEN PERKINS United Press Staff Correspondent


 New York, June IT. - (UP) - The determined drive of Joe Cronin to hand Boston Red Sox owner Tom Yawkey an American League pen- nant, for which the Beantown mag nate has spent uncounted thousands, hit a snag today.
 The Red Sox had been riding rough-shod over the rest of the circuit and up so iast night had counted nine victories in a row. It remained for the Washington Senators to clip Manager Cronin's club, and Milo Candini twirled five hit, shutout ball to record a 40 de- cision.
 Rookie Clem Hausmann was nicked for eight hits as he went to the showers with the loss. The Sox threatened to score only once, in the final Stanza when they damned the bases with only one out, but the potential uprising wilt ed with double play.
 The New York Yankees, home from a disastrous road trip, found the home pasture more to their lik- ing as they jumped on the Phila- delphia athletics, 6-l.
 Tank Borowy hung up his eighth victory and backed up his five-hit pitching with sixth inning triple which highlighted a five-run rally.
 The leading St. Louis Browns, in a twilight game, kicked five Detroit pitchers around for IA hits that net ted 8 14-1 seeking. Bob Muncrief went the distance and recorded his fifth straight win. and his sixth of the season. Stubby Overmire was the loser.
 The Chicago White Sox moved in- to sixth place as they defeated the Cleveland Indians, 3-l. Mel Harder was charged with the loss, while Orval Grove was the winner.
 Tn the National League, the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated Phila- delphia 5 to 4. scoring four runs in the sixth and another in the sev- enth-all at the expense of Charlie Schanz.
 The Cincinnati Reds concen- trated their 13-hit attack in three fat innings to nck the Chicago Cubs. l0-5. Slugging Bill Nichol- son homered for the Cubs in their futile cause as Clyde Shoun won his sixth game.
