U. S. GETS LIFT
WITH BROWN WIN
California Net Ace Fights
Way To Quarter Finals
AT Wimbledon
By BILL MACKLIN

WIMBLEDON, June 29-R -
California Tom Brown, who rolled
through Europe two summers ago
pumping mortar shells at the
Nazis, today gave fresh life to
American hopes of winning all
five Wimbledon titles in the all
English tennis championships.
While Queen Mother Mary and
Prime Minister Attlee gazed from
the royal box, the 23-year-old San
Franciscan ousted Tony Mottram,
Britain's last hope in the mems
singles, 81, 81, 6-3, and wound UP
with seven others in the quarter
finals.
The victory left Brown alone to
carry on for the United States.

Mungo is in Pageland today
making plans to bring his fam

weekend. The 220-pound star

"He's plenty serious about
playing with u.s." Duke said,
"And I'm counting on him to
take his regular turn on the
mound. He's in good shape. His
arm feels good. You know,
he's been pitching five and six
innings three and four times a
week with a semi-pro team
down at his hometown"
Whether the temperamental
Mungo has turned over a new
leaf remains to be seen. During
his career in the majors, his
"badboy" antics became known
far and wide.
Evan could have signed with
two major league clubs when he
left the Giants" Duke added,
"but he was sort of fed up with
things. He wanted to be with
his family, so he returned to

habit of feeding at night. The
same thing applies to other species
of fish which quit feeding in the
day light entirely when the nights
r bright-nor do they fail to
take a bait even when the nights
are dark. Another point in favor
of night fishing is that anglers may
leave town after office hours and
fish in the cool of evening. So
ladies, if you don't trust your hus-
band, take up fishing and join him
on those nightly jaunts.
Although night fishing is not al
lowed in refugees and national
parks, there is not a state law
prohibiting it elsewhere.

Cold Weather Test Forces Arrive In Alaska

Headquarters Alaska Depart ment, Sept. 20. (P)-Under com mand of Col. Paul A. Reichle, task force frigid, comprising approxi- mately 1,600 officers and men representing all branches of the army's ground forces, is ready for its assignment.
 The mission is to conduct a se- ries of tests at Ladd Field during the fall and winter months to de- termine the value of the American equipment in frigid weather.
 The troops arrived at Whittier aboard the transport Sea Star Sept. 13 and were greeted upon arrival by Maj. Gen. Howard A. Craig, commanding general of the Alaska Department.
 In addition to the soldiers and their personal baggage, the Sea Star brought 100 pieces of field equipment.
 The force will operate as an in dependent unit during most of it's field tests, with a minimum of garrison duty. All types of army ground forces equipment will be subjected to field conditions in extreme low temperatures.
 The army hopes to determine definitely whether present equip ment and material is suitable for use in the Arctic or whether it will be necessary to develop new types for such operations.
 It took approximately 45O ve- hicles, believed the longest con- voy ever to move over Territorial highways, to move the force from the debarkation point to it's new garrison.

Brown Family To Return To Alaska

SEATTLE, Sept. 20. R- Eff teen-day-old Eskimo baby Kouk Browns first look at ice meant little to him.
 But soon he will be back north of the Arctic Circle with his par ents, MT. and Mrs. Tom Brown, and three brothers and sisters, where there's more ice. They will fly north to Nome, enroute to White Mountain, about 60 miles east of there.
 "Things down here are too fast for me-" Brown, whose Eskimo name is Bumaroon, said today. "In New York, people are going places like they don't know where they're going-crowds and crowds of them"
 The Brown family was brought to this country eight months ago to appear at the National Sports mems show in New York. A ho- tel manager procured the ice yes- terday to show the children.
