Mrs. Landra B. Platt, "peren-
MEL bridesmaid" in District wom-
ems golf circles for a number of
years, is over the hump now, proud
posseSsor of the Keefer Cup, open
ing and major medal play event
on the schedule.
The Chevy Chase star won a
gratifying victory in the 18th re-
newal OF the 36-hole medal play
event named for the 193O-31 80
president of the DCWGA. Mrs.
Frank r. Keefer, also of the host
Chevy Chase Club. Mrs. Platt said
she couldn't remember having
missed one of the Keefer Cup
events, including a fourth-place
finish last year, but it was her first
victory.
The first-round leader was nine
shots off her opening pace yester-
day with a 81. compared to the
best round of the event, an 81, on
Wednesday, but she deducted
handicap strokes from each round
and the 16l net barely held up for
the cup.
Mrs. Edna Lee Falls, a lO-handi-
cap player from Columbia, nearly
upset the presentation proceedings
when she came in with an 1910
rs, which added to an opening 93-
1913, also gave her a net l61,
but in the DCWGA's card-match-
ing method Mrs. Platt finished
5 down to par for the 36 holes and
Mrs. Falls 7 down.
Mrs. Keefer led a minority group
which favored scrapping the card
matching procedure for settling a
tie in favor of the more popular
playoff system for the major events,
but the playoff adherents we're
ruled down. The tie was the third
straight in the Keefer Cup.
Mrs. Platt ran into four sevens
In her final round but persistently
shook off each. Mrs Falls was on
the way to one of her best rounds,
but the heavy rain and long course
caught up with her and a 6-6-6
finish proved costly.
In day of high scoring, the 23-
year-o1d Indian Spring threat, Mrs.
A. B. Bower. ran into a series of
shanks and a poor putting streak,
but salvaged gross honors with
rounds of 86-85-171.
Mrs. j. B. Patterson of the home
club, won third low net with 93-97,
minus a combined "a handicap for
166. after matching cards with Mrs.
John Connolly of Washington, who
had 100-l02, minus 36 for 166.

n5-Yarder by Webb,
Approach by Jarvis
Win al Columbia

Two golf shots, a terrific drive by
Tommy Webb, jr., and an iron shot
by Walter Jarvis stood out as more
than 200 Columbia Country Club
members turned out for the annual
Opening Field Day" festivities yes
terday.
Webb won the driving contest by
betting the ball 275 yards up the
18th fairway, while Jarvis took the
approaching contest on the 18th
with a near -in-one. His tee
shot stopped just few inches short
of the cup. The approaching con-
test to the practice green was won
by H. G. Nichols with shot three
feet from the pin.
-Four members survived one OF the
obstacles of Chris Heurich's Golf
Committee, keg of beer on the
eighth tee, to finish in a tie in the
blind bogey. Brig. Gen. R. H. Mills
had 96-23-83, Warren Grimes, 98-
25-83; E. c. Gott, jr., 83-13-73,
and G. L. Bream, 89-16-73. Two
others lost out in the draw, Jack
Strait with 83-10-73, and w. B.
Putnam, 85-12-73. Pro Fred Nc
Leod offered to take six plus strokes
if allowed to enter but he was
turned down. Freddie posted a l.
over-par II.
Columbia members were intro
duced to seasonal ringer tourna-
ment, the first in many years, which
will run through the club cham
pionship. New score cards were
produced, featuring caricatures OF
the pro staff, Mcleod, Reds Bana
gan and Set Collinge by Star Staff
Cartoonist Glib Crockett.

Lefties Retard Cards
Again.; Bosox Win as
Williams Homers
by the Assoeioied Press

1t looked today as if the National
League will southpaw the favored
st. Louis Cardinals to death in an
attempt to keep the Redbirds from
wrestling the pennant from the Chi
cago Cubs.
Inability to maintain their SIT
seasonal pace against portsiders cost
the Cards the flag last year and
1t may be the same story this year.
In 80 decisions against unorthodox
fingers in 1945, st. Louis managed
to win II, just one more game than
1t lost.
In IA games this season, op-
posing managers have thrown eight
left-handers against Eddie Dyer's
sluggers and have been rewarded
with four victories.
Latest lefty to haunt the Cards
was Dave Koslo, New York Giants
hopeful, who handcuffed them with
four hits yesterday and whipped
them, ST., to knock St. Louis out
OF a flrst-place tie with Brooklyn.
The Giants beat Pitcher Harry
Brecheen, who had beaten them
six times without a setback since
he entered the league in 1943.
Brooklyn's Dodgers came from be-
hind to shackle the Cubs, 3-2.
Boston's favorite pinup boy, Teddy
Williams, slammed 1O-inning
home run to give the American
League leading Red Sox a 5-4 vic
tory over the Detroit Tigers and a
clean sweep of the three-game
series.
The Yankees clung close to the
Bosox's heels by trimming the
Cleveland Indians, 80, behind the
effective nine-hit hurting of Spud
Chandler, who became the first big
league moundsman to register four
victories.
st. Louis Browns, with a 16-hit
barrage against a trio of Philadel-
phia Athletics hurlers, won, 1913.
Pittsburgh's Pirates took advan-
tage of big five-run frame to top
pie the Phils, 8-3. 1t was the Phils'
10th loss in l3 games.

will be in line for price increases for his products

will be in line for price increases for his products
 There are at least three other major fields where price increases may be expected. These the fields of building materials, pulp and paper and tex tiles Another serious question is how long nonferrouS metal production be held up at present prices.
 With acute shortages looming in all these groups, OPA is now being urged to adopt bolder attitude in granting incentive price increases, wherever indus try demonstrate that higher prices actually would result Tn larger production
 Following the increase in steel prices, manufactur- of builders hardware and related items already have been granted price increase of ten per prewar levels
 The adjustment is defined as reconverson increase, the Office of Price Administration said because pro- duction of these articles greatly curtaed" during the war. The rise over October 1, 1941 prices was allowed, 1t stated, to compensate in part for in- creases in the cost of labor and materials since that time.
 This ruling superseded interim increase of ten per cent granted last fall manufacturers of certain low and medium priced hardware items.
 So far good. BUT ond it is big but OPA accom- panied the authorization for manufacturers price in- creaSeS With another order restricting corresponding price increases for wholesalers and retailers. OPA stated that studies showed that the price in crease could be absorbed by obbers and retailers and still return them gross margins realized in 1941 with enough room to cover any advances in operating ex- penses since 1914
 This was softened somewhat by promise that re- view of the effect of the action on the distribution lev els would be made should data and factors not avail aoe now indicate reexaminaton is necessary" It was also stated that adjustments would be made if stud les show that the batter of markups for sellers in any particular area varies considerably" from the general pattern
 No matter what the wording, the fact still remains that although there has been some change of heart on the subject of getting production through incentive price increases for manufacturers, OPA is in no mood to see price increases passed to consumers The squeeze in simple arithmetic is being shifted from the manufacturer to the wholesaler and retailer Tn this country, that is American Exporter>
The Nome nugget., 1946-05-17
HIGHER PRICES

IT IS NOW acknowledged, by those charged with the task of keeping prices down. that it is sometimes more important to get production than to hold prices at fixed levels
 OPA Administrator Chester Bowles although insisting that price increases should be granted very sparingy has gone record with the statement that price con- trols should not stand in the way of higher production Moreover he has promised greatest possible speed in the handling of current and future price adjustment requests
 Thus the theory that low prices be and held in the face of rising labor costs and before pro- ducton is achieved is beginning to give way before the practical reality that manufacturers however great their sympathy with the low price ideal, first duty to themselves-to stay out of the red They not be expected to produce goods without hope of profit-or, at the very least breaking even.
 President Truman has, himself, appraised the intim- ate relationship between prices and production. Pro duction the President declared recently is saliva tiOn. Production is the basis of high wages and pro- fits and high standards of living for all Production will do away with the necessity for government trols'
 Mr. Trumans statement also recognized more clearly than before the nextrcable relationship between prices and wages It recognized that price control cannot be retained without at least of wage control Originally, OPA set up to prevent soaring prices which would have been inevitable during the while
 
 far exceeded the supply By and large it did very good job Price levels in the United States less during World War than in the preceding conflict in spite of terrific pressure.
 During the war, however costs in the form of wages and services also controlled Now controls over wages and services also controlled. bmbmbmbm wages and services have been relaxed. Indeed wage increases have been encouraged with result that ufacturers costs since VJ day have gone up and up Present price controls in some cases so mudded that it actually permissible to sell piece of machin cry for price if used in industry but higher figure if used in another. The applies to com- modities - '.-. Such inconsistencies bound to work to the dis advantage of industries which not allowed to pay the higher prices for the goods they need With costs rising faster than production, manufacturers cannot be blamed for doing the best they can that s for sell ing for the highest return which the law allows
 The first real break in the price line with the settlement of the steel strike. In granting the 1872 cent per hour wage increase to steel workers recommended by President Truman, steel producers themselves granted price increase steel averaging five dollars per ton.
 The boost in steel prices will be felt all the way down the line in steel abricatng and by ultimate steel ;o+oo oI;x,
