ished, the Citizens Forum Of CO.

equipment distributor.
You find me boy or girl in
crime, and I'll show you someone

save the world from starvation" Mr..
Overlook said, is to make it a
crime to destroy food" Next In i'm
portance, he added, Is to leave the
food In its natural state, $50 it will
feed people instead of putting them
in the hospital"
Referring to preparation for ship
ping food products, Mr.. Overlook
said manufacturers see to it tina,
| the food won't spoil en- route" but
that the food value often is de-
stroyed In the process.
MIR. Overlook said consumers
should insist on getting food value
in the products they buy,
"It's so easy to feed our desires
and our eyes rather than oul
bodies" he said.
Following Mr.. Overbeck's talk, the
forum voted to protest to the Agri-
culture Department the destruction
Of food at any time.
DR.. Lyman E. Kebler, chairman OF
the associations Health and Safety
Committee, discussed the need fol-

Owners in New York
Faced With Ruling
On Leaving State
BY the Associated Press

The Laurel race course, with a
new owner and a quarter of a mil
lion dollars worth of improvements,
begins 25-day meeting Wednes-
day and according to the Associated
Press officials are wondering wheth-
er swamp fever will interfere with
Maryland's fall turf program.
Laurel, which operates only dur
ing October, inaugurates the 52-day
Maryland fall season. From there
the horses go to Pinilico for 13 days,
and Bowie for IA. Both of the
latter conduct spring meetings.
Last winter the Maryland Jockey
Club, which operates Pimlico and
the Timonium half-mile oval, pur-
chased the Laurel interests.
Stakes Total S16O,0O0.
Henry A. Parr, III, Jockey Club
president, announced that q dozen
stakes would be renewed, with stake
offerings alone totaling 100000. A
daily purse distribution of approx
imately $4,000 is the largest in the
history OF the track.
The swamp fever situation pro-
vides the uncertainty, for many
owners are faced with the New York
ruling that any horses leaving that
State will not be permitted to re-
turn. Normally, high class stake
performers are shipped between
Maryland and New York tracks for
the richer events.
Laurel officials, headed by Parr,
have been in New York for several
days discussing the situation with
horse owners, trainers and track
officials of that State.
The $4,000 added Capital Handi-
cap, 6-furlong sprint for 3-year-
olds and up, will feature the 37th
opening day program.
Polynesian Top Weighted.
Top weight of 1874 pounds was
assigned Elmendorf Farms Polyne-
sian for the Capital, but Polynesian's
handlers haven't indicated whether
he will leave New York.
The same goes for William G.
Helis' Rippey, who also is quartered
at Belmont. Rippey drew a 125-
pound impost.
The $25,000-a added Washington
Handicap, mile and a quarter test
for 3-year -olds and up on October
18, and the $25,000- added Selma
Stakes, mile and a sixteenth for
juvenile fillies, October Is, head the
stakes program.

unleashed a wild pitch. DiMaggio's
single, a walk to Williams and Wally
Moses single scoring DiMaggio,
blasted Masterson from the premises
and Hal Toenes squelched the up

Smallest Crowd Of Season.
The Mats stirred up no trouble for
Dobson, for after Spence's homer
Washington didn't move a man to
second base until the 9th, when they
filled the bases with two out when
Eddie Lyons walked, Gil Coan
singled and Spence walked. Robert
son then famed, to the considerable
chagrin of 3,148 fans, Griffith Sta
dium's smallest gathering of the

The Mats will finish their sad
season today, facing the Red Sox in
a 3 o'clock game, with Mickey Haef-
ner slated to pitch for Washington
and Earl johnson due to hurl for
Boston.

By Burton Hawkins

Ted Williams and Joe Dobson
supplied the oxygen to sustain Bos-
tons hope of a second place. tie in
the American League by crushing
the Mats. 81, yesterday at Griffith
Stadium.
One majestic sweep of Terrifying
Ted's mighty bat stroked Walter
Masterson toward his 18th defeat,
the angular Boston outfielder pump
ing hons run atop the right field
scoreboard with two aboard in the
first jnning. Dobson then took
command, shackling the Mats with
five hits.
Stan Spence delivered the Mats
their only run in the second inning
when he drilled home run over the
right field fence, a blow which kept
Washington within shouting dis
tance of the Red Sox until they un-
loaded five runs off Masterson in
the eighth.
Red Sox Get IA Hits.
Boston's victory, accomplished to
the tune of IA hits, enabled the Red
Sox to remain a game behind the
second place Detroit Tigers. A
Boston triumph over the Mats today,
coupled with Detroit defeat, would
create tie for second place.
Rookie Merrill Combs greeted
Masterson with double to center
and Johnny Pesky sacrificed before
Dom DiMaggio walked In that
situation Williams lofted his 32d
homer Of the season atop the fence.
Masterson twice pitched out of
bases-loaded predicaments, but in
the eighth Murrell Jones opened
with a single to launch an ava
tanche. Rop Partee sacrificed and
Jones shifted to third when Dobson
reached first on Johnny Sullivan's
tumble. Combs single fetched Jones
