SAYS LATIN AMERICANS
WILL FIGHT FOR FREEDOM

lege Tuesday that South Amerl-
ca is a vast new worlt struggling
to be born, and when July born
it will have power 20 change the
complexion of the world. PICARD
less of where he went on the con-
tirent, people on all educational
levels were constantly talking OF
securing their freedom. The war
has emphasized to them that they
should have freedom and they are
prepared to fight until free.
One significant movement noted
by The speaker is taking place IN
Buenos Aires where, of the 20001
students in the University, 10 to I
are against the present government
He maintained that only Is per
cent of the population in Argentina
are Nazi sympathizers and describ-
ed how this group controlled the
country through Gestapo practices
Some Argentiniaus, he said were as
loyal to Hitler as the Na2is in Ber-
lin. Nevertheless, Mr. Montgomery
propnecied that The first great &C.
sIocracy to come Out of Latin
America will be Argentina, and
that country will be followed by
Brazil. Uruguay fantically de-
mocratic cow will continue to l.
slire its .neighbors from their to-
talitariaE practices.
DEMOCRACY ENVISIONED
Although it will be generations
before the Latin Americans attain
full democracy, Mr. Montgomery
is confident that it will come to
pass. He believes thai Brazil, a
world empire in itself, could rival
the United States in IS years, I'M
less we continue to work forward.
The speaker contrasted the re-
turn Of our soldiers from the Euro
pean battlefields to a land of free
DOM ready to enjoy freedom, with
the return of soldiers to Latin
America where fighting will be as
long and hard as it was on the
ether side of the ocean. 1--WE should
forget the Alamo" he said, ''al,d

what has enriched this country for
so many years.
Mr.. Montgomery presented a
vivid word picture of his air trip
through South america, referring
to Rios beauty as matcilless any
where in the world.

moral basis for our position Of
world leadership as a democracy
and hence a sound peace. Without
this proof of democratic faith at

clothed merely in language Of our
war aims.
I'VE oppose filibusser and all de-
vices of minority rule, and urge the

Gonzaga's redhot hoopsters take
on Central tomorrow afternoon IN
the vikings gym after racking up
10 straight wins and piling up 259
points in the last four triumphs.
For the I streeters, who ran up their
sizzling record against teams OF

real test of schedule that so far
has failed to pair the Eagles with
ouintets of equal class.
Victim No. 10 on Gonzaga's list
Yesterday was Dewitt, swamped, IS

Bulls, swapping back from the de-
feat by Army Plebes Saturday, re-
corded sixth win by whipping
Mount Rainier, So to IS. In another
tilt, st. Anthony edged Anacostia,

Dewitt completely was outclassed
by a Gonzaga scoring combination
of Scott Cranston, George Kelly, Joe
Burke and Ed Reidy, who collected
56 of the Eagles counters. George
Van Wagner and Billy Rafferty, were
the only Devittmen able to get
through the Eagle defense with Van
Wagner getting Is points and Raj
ferty making 8.
Gonzaga took 19-to-4 lead go
ing into the second quarter, made
it 40 to 13 at halftime, and kept
the gas turned up high over the
remainder of the distance as every
player on the 14-man squad con-
tributed a score. Cranston topped
the list with eight field goals and

under pending 4-F legislation.
Evans said the Southern clubs
have signed 60 new men since last

holdovers, give each club around 20
men with which to start the season.
As for the future, Evans said, I'VE

Cronin of the Boston Red Sox, "but

The 38-year-old diamond veteran
said the review of 4-Fs undoubtedly
would mean further losses to all
major league squads, but the new
ruling that American Legion juniors
can be signed by the majors and
the minors should help.
And then, of course, as for the
4-Fs, "some of the players have
milk legs or other handicaps which
will make them hardly fit for any
kind of service"
The Red Sox manager admitted
teams would be far below prewar

Golf Is Good Medicine
For War Shocked
Demaret Holds =
By the Associated Press.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex. Jan. %.
Smiling Jimmy Demaret returns
to tournament golf after IA months
with a plug for the game as an
excellent medicine" for the war
weary.
For Is years golf had been a fine
sport and profitable business for
business for Demaret, big money
winner along the tournament trail
until he entered the Navy. Since
the war Jimmy has discovered
third dimension of value In the
game. He calls it 'the great re-
habilitator" va
He offers as proof of the games
aid to rehabilitation cases the pro-
gram of building golf courses at
Government hospitals and institu-
tions for the mentally i'll.
Demaret, specialist in athletics,
first class, recently was transferred
from cambridge, Md, to the Corpus
Christi Naval Air Station and will
be able to join his golfing pals of
yesterday in two tournaments-the
IexaS open at san ANTONIO GnlS
week end and the Corpus Christi
Open next week.
Jimmy said he visited several hos
pitfalls to give exhibitions and play
golf with the patients. He described
as amazing" the reaction of men,
tally i'll persons who had been in
duced to take up the game.
This is just one reason, says De-
maret, why the game will enjoy an
unbelievable boom in postwar years,
when good balls and clubs again are
available.
Jimmy plans to return to his job
as pro of River Oaks Club in Hous-
ton upon release from the Navy and
to take up again the tournament
trail. He still is sharp with his
woods and irons, but says he's bit
off on his putting touch.
