Hogan Aiming 10 Top
$4,000 for Year in
|Coumbus Event
BY the hs,oeioied Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 5.-Ben
Hogan sets out today to pass the
$25 600 mark in golf winnings for
the year.
Hogan, who has succeeded Byron
Nelson as COLTS biggest money win
ner. opened fire today in the $4,000
Columbus Invitational Open with
s24, ,569.50 already in his jeans from
this years play.
He doesn't need much to get over
that SOS, GOO hump although natural
ly he would prefer the $4,000 top
prize.
Hogan and Nelson, as usual, rated
as one-tWo favorites in the 72-hole
event which will be concluded Sum
day. Nelson has picked off $l4,-
1892 in tournaments this year and
although he has passed up several
events he asserted today he was
"over-golfed."
There were few absentees in the
heavy money winners rank. Sam
Snead, John Bulla, Lawson Little
and Joe Xirkwood. of course. were
in England for the British Open and
Sam Byrd of Redford, Mich.
couldn't compete because of home
club commitments.
Dick Metz of, Arkansas City,
Kans. also still had not registered
last night.
Among the amateurs the best
looked to be Frank Stranahan Of
Toledo, Ohio, who has made vir-
tually all of the top Tournaments
this year as we'll as playing in the
British Amateur, and Maurice Nc
Carthy of Cincinnati former
Georgetown University and Walker
Cup player and the 1914 Ohio Open
champion.
There also was a one-armed golf
er in the starting field That was
Prospero Gianvito, Columbus anna
teur who plays consistently in the
low 70s.
Lloyd Mangrum of Los Angeles,
the 1916 National Open champion,
went into the tournament without
any practice over the course.

Tropped-BoII Play
Gets Mats Asleep

Tommy Heinrich, New York
Yankees talented right fielder,
is doing his part to keep smart
baseball alive.
Three times this season, Hen
rich has trapped fly balls to start
seldom-seen double plays, much
TO the chagrin of opposing teams.
He did 1t at Griffith Stadium
yesterday, snufilng out budding
Washington rally in the fourth
inning of the first half of the
twin bill. With Gerry Priddy on
second base and Cecil Travis on
first. Billy Hitchcock hit a short
fly to right. Heinrich raced in,
faxed catch of the ball in the
air. but quickly squatted down
and trapped it on the short hop.
The Mats were so bewildered
by the play that Henrich's swift
throw to Phil Rizutto caught
Priddy standing on second, where
he was tagged out. Travis didn't
leave first base and was forced
at second.

Petra Blasts Brown
In 5-Set Battle for
Wimbledon Title
BY the Assoc;o,ed Pros,

WIMBLEDON, July 5.-Yvon
Petra, French giant, won the mems
singles title by defeating Geof1
Brown OF Australia, 60, t, 79,
81, Ga, in the final of the all
England championships before a
crowd Of $4,000 today.
The 6-foot 7-inch Frenchman,
seeded no higher than fifth in the
tournament, employed a devastating
service to win the first two sets
from his much smaller opponent.
After dropping the long drawn
third and fourth sets, he came back
in the fifth to overwhelm Brown
with his pulverizing delivery.
Petra First to Slow Him.
Brown, sent to Wimbledon by the
voluntary contributions of his coun-
trymen, had not lost set until he
ran into Petra. The new champion
became the first Frenchman to win
the Wimbledon title since Henri
Cochet turned the trick in 1929.
In his drive to the title Petra
eliminated top seeded Dinny Pals
of Australia and the young Amer
lean sensation, Tom Brown, among
others. Throughout the tournament
his blasting service was his most
reliable Weapon.
Although he played at Wimble-
don twice before the war and was
ranked No. in France in 1899, the
30-year r-old Petra was accorded only
slight chance of winning the present
tournament.
He was machine-gunner at the
start of the war and spent two years
in a German military prison. He
resumed tennis in 1912 as France
continued its championships under
occupation.
As Brown sent the last ball sailing
beyond the baseline. Petra threw
down his racket and ran forward to
meet him Then, as an after
thought, he retrieved the racket and
kissed it several times lovingly.
Louise Brough OF Beverly Hills
and Margaret Osborne Of San Fran
cisco reached the final round of
women's doubles by defeating an
other pair of Californians. Mrs Pa
tricia Canning Todd and Dorothy
Bundy, 6-4, go.

NEW YORK, July 5.-That the

went away from the track with

This amounted to an average in

For the benefit of the seekers

out that on July 4, 1945, at II tracks
the days wagering topped $4,000

NEW YORK, July 5.-Here it is

point of the baseball season and
football will be on the scene in
10 days. The Brooklyn Dodgers

they'll meet in the first exhibi-

The regular season won't start

August and will swing into real
action with the Chicago All-Star

WHAT IS YOUR PRICE?
By Ruth Taylor

What is your price?
Asked that of any man, and the
chances are you'll get an indignant
answer 81 don't wear price tag. I'm
not for sale"
But-unfortunately too many people
have price of some sort. They
wouldn't take money bribe-fewer
people do than is realized. However
they do ask favors-and return them
They don't speak out when they should,
for fear Of offending someone of i'm
portance to them. They don't want to
"hurt peoples feelings, by telling
bold and unpleasant truth. They are
willing to compromise with issues in
order to gain point They are warped
by prejudices and swayed by their likes
and dislikes.
The man without a price, the incor-
ruptible man, is man above price. He
has an anchor in his principles. He is
not moved by fear or favor. He stands
on truth as he sees it, and he is strong
in the hour of crisis. He is dependa-
BILE in both small and large things
His word is good because it is never
given carelessly.
The incorruptible man is not afraid
He will speak out against evil wher-
ever it exists. But he will not con-
denim his fellow men without due
cause-and then never misjudge a
group by the action or opinions OF
one man. He holds no unreasoning
prejudices. He treats his fellow men
as individuals and respects their be-
liefs as he demands respect for his
own. The only aristocracy he recogniz-
es is the aristocracy of character, of
good thoughts, of good manners. He
neither looks down at or up to his
neighbor. He is tolerant of everything
except intolerance.
Given a nation of incorruptible men
and the world could be a world at
peace. The world will always follow
the strong man, and the incorruptible
man has an inner strength that is
never more apparent than in the hour
of adversely. He is like the city found
ed upon a rock. The incorruptible man
is the honor, and the base, of good
community or great nation.
What is your price?

that in the future, with a few excep-
tions, parties to labor disputes will

including fee of from $50 to $10O

Service has borne these fees.
The only exceptions would be made
where the existing contracts speci-

renewed in the future, Mr.. Warren
stated. The "free" service was origi-

"Even more important is that this

"Secretaay of Agriculture Ander-

Congress must pass bill to raise

that no action will be taken at this

living rising with each passing hour,
the plight of millions of Americans is
getting desperate.
at is inconceivable that any Amer

of wages that do not permit man

conceivable that any American would
