N. A. Pro Golf Event
Also Is Sectional
Qualifying Test

Middle Atlantic pro golfers will be
shooting for double honors Friday at
Woodmont, where 36-hole medal
play tournament will serve as Sec
tional qualifying round for the Ma
tional PGA, as well as the Middle
Atlantic PGA championship.
The number of qualif1ers will be
based upon the number of members
in this section, as compared with
those of other sections and may be
low, as many leading younger pros
from this section are in military
service.
Cliff Spencer, unattached pro
from this area, who won the Mary
land crown last year, will not be
eligible, as the event is closed to
PGA members, but his brother
Glenn of Baltimore will play. Glenn
and Carroll T. MacMaster made q
good showing in an exhibition
against jug McSpaden and Byron
Nelson recently, indicating they'll
make strong bids for the title and
places in the national tourney.
Ralph Beach, Johnny Flattery,
Middle Atlantic president; Irwin
Schloss and Charley Betschler are
others from the Baltimore area who
will match shots with District and
nearby mashie manipulators.

Mullen, Stormy Ring
Booster, Succumbs
BY the Associated Press


CHICAGO, June 6-Jim Mullen
whose stormy career as q f1gh1
promoter Is almost saga Of tht
sport Of boxing in the Midwest, will
be buried at private service today
with only few OF his personal
friends present.
Mullen, who gave former Heavy
weight Champion Gene Tunney one
Of his first big chances for fame
died yesterday Of heart ailment
after almost seven months illness.
He had virtually divorced himself
from boxing for almost II years
but his promotional efforts before
that time have been regarded for
more than a decade as the basis
upon which the Midwest's big-time
boxing was founded. He promoted
fights before boxing was legalized
in Illinois, carried fight Of his own
into the State Legislature to get the
sport recognized as legal, and then
quietly withdrew in 1923 to leave
the rings future in other hands.
Paradoxically, his efforts to de-
velop the sport into what has be-
come big business gained him but
little financial return. He promoted
championship fights here, but for
the most part they were financial
losses because Of his willingness to
offer fighters large sums in his
efforts to see boxing prosper.

Over the Top

Too much praise cannot be given the Ameri-
can people for going so far over the top in
the Seventh War Loan campaign. With a ma.
sional quota Of $4,000, 100000, total sales
mounted to $26,313, 100000.
The showing Is not only a tribute to the
purchasers but to the six million volunteers
who gave freely Of their time in the solicita.
ton. 1t is also particularly gratifying because
there will be no other war bond drive this
year. With such large surplus, the Treasury
Is in better position to meet such war costs
as are paid from bond revenues.
Wilmington kept pace with the nation at
large. The area also went well over the top,
although it seemed at first that the local quota
could not be reached. Even the E bond quota,
which Jagged so distressingly SO long, has been
topped. AS always, Wilmington did better than
expected.
Now that the bonds are bought, it is to be
hoped they will be boarded until maturity.
BY doing so the purchasers will assure them
selves a safer financial position in a decade
than they could hope for without the nest egg
the bonds constitute. Furthermore, the nation
having longer use of the money invested in
bonds. will have smoother going during the
remaining period Of war and the just-started
period of reconversion.

No Left Turn

Certain intersections in downtown Whining
ton display legible signs reading mo Left
Turn The signs are large and Immediately
beneath the traffic signals. 1t is impossible
for any driver who looks for the red or green
light to miss seeing them.
We find it particularly difficult therefore to
understand what induces occasional drivers to
make left turn at one of these intersections.
Is it that they have no respect for a protective
traffic rule, or merely that they don't give a
hang?
In either case 1t would be helpful if the
police rallied an offender or two into court,
and the court imposed a fine substantial
enough to discourage repititions and serve
warning on other drivers that they will face
equal penalty if they disobey the rule.

meat back on the dinner table and possibly
little bacon for breakfast.

For Open Covenants

now the world is not ready for it. But it is
gratifying and heartenng to know that Pres-
dent Truman is: firmly resolved that no secret
commitments shall be made at the Potsdam
Big Three conference, as far as he is con-
cerned. He believes in open covenants and
will exert his full influence for them during
the sessions soon to open when it is hoped
a program for peace will be worked out.
Reports from the presidential cruiser indi-
cate that the tenor of Mr.. Truman's confer
ences with Secretary of State Byrnes and Ad-
tons by the Big Three, and that all decisions
all directed to open and above board negotia.

shall be ph1 ased so plainly that no misinterpre-
tation will be possible, as was the case at
Yalta with regard to the Polish agreement.
President Truman approaches Europe with
two clearly defined detectives. Primarily, of
course, is the conclusion of the war in the
Pacific. He will want to know in concrete
terms what Great Britain and Russia propose
to do to bring hostilities in the Far East to a
victorious and speedy end. Secondly. he is Tn
derstood to be ready to offer any reasonable
American aid in rehabilitating impoverished
European nations, in exchange for which ne
will expect assurances that differences which
could serve as causes of further war will be
settled among the nations themselves
In this, as in planning the end of the Japa-
nese war, it will be vastly to his advantage
to have General Eisenhower at his sadie, in
addition to his regular staff. The general knows
European conditions as few men know them,
and has a head on his shoulders that main
tains a level position under stormiest condi-

Editorial Comment
THE NAZI GUERRILLAS"

While the German Nazi failed in their idea
of making a last-ditch organized stand in the
southern German mountains, species of
guerrilla activity is still being carried on in
these mountains by a considerable number
of Hitler's black-shirted SIS guards.
A Christian Science Monitor correspondent
tells of the task which American troops still
have, two months after the surrender of hunt
ing down these bands of military and civil
outlaws who are conducting a reign OF terror
against small Alpine villages.
Though these villagers themselves would
probably like to see them rooted out, h
are giving little or no help to the occupying
forces in finding these outlaws hiding places
for the reason, apparently, that they feel that
there is chance that the Nazis may come
back into power in Germany and retaliate for
this 'betrayal'

Strong For The Charter

The vote on the San Francisco Charter in
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is
notable for two reasons Firstly it was unani-
tees, Johnson, Shipstead and Murray, at least
two probably will vote for 1t if they avail
themselves of the privilege Of voting later.
Murray, the Montana democrat, is understood
to favor the Charter. Johnson, the Californian
who opposed the League Of Nations, says he
might as well 60 along with the crowd" or
words to that effect Only Shipsteads position
is in doubt He may decide 70 be the single
exception. Even So the nna1 committee would
be twenty-five to one, such overwhelming
majority as seldom happens with any legisla-
ton following committee hearings.
In the second place 1t appears that senti-
ment is SO strongly stirred for peace that the
committeeman were ready to vote for the
Charter despite its acknowledged shortcom-
ings. In this, We Think the committee repre-
sents the feeling OF the American peopel gen
orally and most peoples Of the world.
There is week of debate on the Breton
Woods agreements ahead in the Senate. Even
with Senator Taft and other members Of that
branch of Congress opposing them, it is prob
able the week will see them approved and
the floor cleared for consideration Of the Char
ter Enough senators have been committed
IN advance to assure its approval
All in all it is possible that the United States
will approve the Charter while the Potsdam
conference Is still in progress, which will be
greatly to the credit Of the United States,
which failed SO dismally to do it's part in i'm
plementing peace after the former World war
by refusing to join the League Of Nations.
Speedy approval Of the Charter will 60 far 10
