 Goods Involved

Boston, March 2S-(uP) A vast black market in scarce cotton tex tiles brought into Boston in taxi cabs and private automobiles to sell to manufacturers at profits ranging as high as 400 per cent was dis closed by the regional OPA office here today.
 The OPA said all its available manpower is being used to inVesti- gate the illegal activities Also talk ing part in the investigation are representatives of the Internal Rev enue Department, the Justice De- partment and the Civilian Produc- ton Administration,
 The OPA said that fly-by might "jobberS" and flinders buy loads of lawn, batiste and sheeting al the average ceiling price Of approx imately % cents yard, tack on a 50 cent 6 yard premium and rec peddle it to fabric-hungry garment manufacturers
 The process is manipulated by means of fake invoices, company names and agents names in making original purchases and subsequent transactions, the OPA said. The black market buyers at first used common carriers to transport the merchandise. However, when the operators discovered that the Inter- state Commerce Commission was able to trace shipments, they began using private transportation.
 The OPA said that criminal pro- ceedings soon may be brought against four unidentified Boston jobblng concerns allegedly involved.

Auto Golf Records
Mark for Speed
By the Assoeiofed Press

by me SSSoCtoie0 FretS
SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa, Oct. 18.-
A new kind of golf mark-a speed
record-has been set on the g.
400-yard 18-hole Brooks Country
Club course here.
A complete round of golf was
played over the course early this
month in 26 minutes and 81 sec
onds. Score for the round was
even par: 37-36-73. There's
slight catch. -Four automobiles
apd four gorlf specialists COM
bsned to set the record.
The unorthodoX innovation was
sponsored by Val M. Brooks,
course manager, to satisfy his
curisity.
Brooks wondered how much
time was consumed in merely
smacking the ball from tee to cup.
So he lined up a lightning four
some composed of Walter Duda,
Spirit Lake, for tee shots; Cor
don Woods, Milford, Iawo, for
long iron shots; L. G. Shoemaker,
Rockford, ILL.,, for pitches, and
Bill Springer, Okoboji, Iowa, for
puts.
Each golfer was assigned an
automobile. AS soon as he belted
his particular speciality he hoped
into the car and the driver hur-
ried him to his next station.
Despite two slight delays,
caused by ball in the rough and
a lost ball, the foursome covered
the outside nine in 13 minutes So
seconds and the inside nine in
l3 minutes 4 seconds.
Brooks says its a world speed
record for 18 holes over regula-
ton course,

clashing federal agencies on a single
plan for the Missouri as "a shotgun
wedding" brought about to forestall
the creation of the MVA.
They contend that the plan is moth
ing more than a compromise on old
methods which have failed and which
have been disguised carefully to save
the interests guarded by two jealous
government agencies.
MVA opponents, on the other hand,
claim that the unified plan, if carried
out, will develop fully the water re-
sources of the basin while avoiding
the type of "super-state" control that
they profess to see in an agency such
