Ironing Raxnn

Many rayons can be ironed when
completely dry - but some do
better while slightly damp. The
first time you iron new garment,
try the iron on both a damp and
dry spot in an inconspicuous area to
see which method IS best. Spun ray
ons usually respond best when al
most dry; crinkly finishes when
slightly damp: crisp acetates when
definitely dsmp.

ny OSCAR FRAEyEY

Mamaroneck, N. r.. June SUP IA boycott of the National Open Championship by the nations pro- fessional golfers appeared to be an eventual probability today as the fairway fraternity questioned an se!000 payoffs on a tournament which draws at least sl5000O.
 The men who make their living by consistent driving. chipping and putting-and who draw most Of that total sum into the coffers of the Amateur U. s. Coli. Association in the Open Play 8 long series of round the calendar tournaments and none and none Of these events pay less than el0O00.
 A few make splendid money. Others barely meet expenses. And still others don't. as they travel from tournament to tournament on 3 diei of dougfnuts and coffee hoping some day to hit the jackpot al the end Of the rainbow.
 Have Certain Magnetism
 Yet. they feel that is profession als whose names gre blazoned from coast-to-coast every week in the year they are the magnet which makes the Open what ii is. U. s. 0. A. officials probably feel that the Open is worth a cool sl0000o to the winner in indorsements and such items as exhibitions and per- sonal appearances. but it still neg lects the fact that the winner gets a miseEly el.500.
 However, if it weren't for the pros there could be no Open and the tournament wouldn't draw pea nuts.
 This year there were a total oi a.l5s entries for the Open at s5 a head. That's s5.730 in the U. s. c. A. fdll alone. Other profitable items estimated. are e90000 for radio rights. s20000 from the program and elo000o gate.
 Those items have to be estimated Because if you ask the U. S. c. 4. as I did they'll tell you in no un- certain terms that w'hat they make is none of your business.
 Needed For ReseaFcb
 They will condescend to explain that after that es000 prize money topped of there are a great many expenses. The home club and the association. for instance, must split that admission and concession

Now fight fans. before you start say. ing m take Max"--relax, because they are not going to fight; for they are the best of friends, in fact vaudeville actors. for the Mayfair Is a Hub night spot where you pay @ to take a deep breath, whether or not you use a broad Harvard "A"
 Believe it or doubt. but the two dlzziest dodoes of the boxing world. their ring careers far be- hind them (hallelujahD are mak- their antics pay off in the form of something like 5000 per week. and one Waterburian who saw them work out vocally last week reports the club where they are headiined, Is taking reservations two weeks in advance. Maybe they give out butter with the hread).
 However. you can be sure tha, when Max Baer. natural-born ham actor CRemember Prizefightei and the LadyD and Slapsie Maxit Rosenbloom, who has been having bit parts in the movies for ten years or more. get together. in the same act. the laughter must be something to shake the patriotic foundation of Constitution Hall. Tn the ring. RoSenbloom had the much better record than Baer. for he was never stopped. counted out that is. and for a man who liked training for a fight about as much as he liked the late Adolf Schickel- gruher, Slapsie Maxie was the ring marvel of the age. Long before Baer came out Of California with those big shoulders and arms, the punch Of a paratrooper, but the heart Of a mouse, Rosenbloom did his training on waxed dance floors and both men were always in prime physical condition or close to it, as tobacco and liquor was no part of their makeup.

 Whats more they're pals in business and pleasure. and making it pay, for if they can click" in Boston as entertainers. imagine what they will do when they spring their act on New York, where the competition will be much tougher, but their pop ularity will sand them in good stead. And, if they get as far as California. the movie people will see to 1t that they make good fi- nancially from start to finish.

 Maybe they can work Water bury's Modest Mike Genaro into the act when he gets back from Alabama. or Chicago or somewhere; and If they do. you can wager all the shamrocks in Ireland the aci will be bigger and better thar ever"
