Chief critics of the University
policy are student veterans who
have part-time Jobs in Ypsilanti

PEELED to ride a commercial bus
line which charges a rate twice as
high as the University's fare.
THAT situation is unfortunate"
the officials stated. but we are not
discriminating against the working
student. The simple fact is that
the University. a state institution,
cannot use these buses, which are
the property of the federal govern
ment, in any manner which could
be misinterpreted as competing
with private bus companies"

The Bristol Company of this city, Clock Company of New Haven and the United Cinephone Corporation, Torrington, manufacturers engaged by direct contract in sonar work, has been cited by the United States Navy as contributors to the victory against enemy submarines.
 The Navy's account revealed that Sonar" a word coined from abbreviations for sound, navig- ton and ranging, was the only effective method of detecting com pletely submerged submarines. De- velopment of the detection devices was reviewed in some detail from the time late in World War I when important techniques were develop ed at the New London experimental station through the 1942 period when, the Navy says, I've are loS- ing the battle of the Atlantic" and 05 of every 100 submarines detected was escaping, to the last four months of the European war when only 5C ships were sunk, while the anti-submarine forces sunk SS U-boats and about 100 midget sub marines.

 Although the actors--age four to seven weeks-only appeared before the cameras for 30 seconds at a time, they were for three days under the supervision of several doctors, four nurses, and four welfare workers from the Califnoria board of educa- ton.
 Studio limousines picked up the babies, with their entourage includ- ing 12 mothers, at their homes the day before they reported to Mono- gram, and tox them to hospital for a medical examination. They were all found to be in prime health.
 The next day, the nurse and well fare workers escorted the babies and the mothers to the studio, where a complete nursery had been built on the set--including arrangements for hot water and dry diapers. A constant temperature was maintain ed at all times.

Akron Pro Wins By One Stroke

August, Gao April 8. (UP)-AI long as there is a masters tourna. nent at the Augusta National gol. course the 18th hole will be re. membered as the one where ir l946 Ben Hogan lost a masters title and where Herman Keiser backed 1 into one.
 That was the topic of conversa- tion all over town today and the discussion may never die
 Keiser, the Akron. O., pro. came up to the 18th hole yesterday need ing q par to assure himself of the title and the $2,500 first prize He got off good drive but was long on his approach which seemed des- tined to carry him well beyond the green.
 But his ball hit the pin and stopped on the green less than 20 feet from the hole and it looked like he was in Then ss some 2,000 of the 7500 spectators looked on, he pushed Il putt some five feet beyond the cup and missed com ing back to give him bogey five, "A for the round and 282 total.
 Meanwhile, Hogan, the Hershey, Pao hot-shot, who had started off the day five strokes in back of Keiser, had picked up four of them and was trylng for an eagle on the 18th when Keiser walked off the 18th green.
 Little Ben missed his putt for the eagle but was down for a birdie and needed but three pars for q tie. There weren't many persons on the course who didn't think he could do it,
 Hogan, whose 70 for the day gave him 283 total for the 72 holes and 8 check for $l 300, had lost his sec- ond tournament in a row here by the narowest of margins. In 1922, the last previous masters tourna- ment played Ben had tied Byron Nelson only to lose in a playoiff.
 First Big Win
 For Keiser, 1t was the first major win of his golfing career. The eX- navy veteran tied. Hogan in the Phoenl%, Arlz., open only to lose in a playoff of that event.
 Third prize money of $l,000 went to Bob Hamilton, of Chicago who shot a 70 on his last round

State SoftboII Meeting April 10

Bridgeport, April B.-The eXecu-
 tive Committee of the newly or.
 ganized Connecticut Amateur Soft.
 ball Association will meet Wednes-
 day evening, April 10, at St. Pat
 rick's hall in New Haven to con-
 tinue making plans for holding championship tournaments in three
 divisions-Class A. Industrial and
 Girls for 1946.
 Under the plan presented at the
 initial meeting by Able Booth president of the Softball Associa- ton, separate state championships will be held in these three divi- sions with Joseph Skubas of Fair field, state deputy commissioner in charge of the Class A Division and Fred Wilson of Waterbury, state deputy commissioner of the Industrial Division
 According to William E. Hoyle, state softball commissioner, Con- necticut will be divided into twelve district and metropolitan areas with champions from each district elig- ible for tournament play in each division of competition.
 Bernie O'Rourke, state secretary, will present to the members of the executive committee revised con- stitution under which soft'ball com potion will be played this season.
 One of the important changes in the rules will be that of requiring a team, if they are to be eligible for district, state or regional tour nament, to play in a recognized league comprised of at least four teams No all-star teams will be acceptable for tournament play. The defending state champions, however, under national rules auto matically qualify for the com pition.
 Commissioner Hoyle will present the names of all metropolitan and district commissioners at Wednes- days meeting. Present indications are that there will be four metro- politan areas; Hartford Bri- tain, New Haven, Waterbury, Bridgeport, Stanford Greenwich. Teams not listed within metropolis tan areas will compete on a coun- tfyW.de paSlS Tor representation m the state play-otl
 Able Booth. att he initial meet ing of the executive committee, said last week: "The new rules of eligi- bility for softball will be strictly followed. Each team will be required by July to submit to the state secretary q bonafidc Mst of team members and 1t will be necessary for any team to take part in all com petition with the original roster submitted on this date,
