Caviar Surplus Not Top Grade

NEW YORK, R)-U. s. grain and commodity exchanges weren't the only American markets upset last week. There was sharp tre- mor in the caviar trade, too.
 Pravda started the excitement. The Soviet newspaper announced Russia's far eastern KhabaroVsk fisheries had produced over 4,500 tons of caviar during 1947.
 Dealers in the aristocoat of all hors d'oeuvres were shocked. Heretofore, trade sources said, limited Russian production had held annual American imports to a 100-ton maximum.
 Telephones began to ring incess- antly in the New York offices of the Romanoff Caviar company. Romanoff is the worlds principal packer of caviar and chief Ameri- can importer of the high grade Russian "black sturgeon species" Currently, it retails here for SPA a pound
 Apprehensive dealers in Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and other distribution centers were calling. What, they inquired anxiously, would this huge yield do to the American market? How would it affect prices?
 Romanoff officials hurried over to the Amtorg Trading corpora ton, the Soviet export-import agency.
 Cables to Moscow began to hum with urgent inquiries.
 Three days later came another U.S.S.R. production note.
 That 4,50O-ton Kraba V k catch, explained Amtorg, consist ed solely of "red" salmon caviar.
 That's a cheaper, proletariat va riety of the white tie and tails member of cocktail table delica- cies.

Districts Interest in Amateur
Increased by Local QuoIifiers
By MerreII WhittIesey

Bobby Brownell, Maury Nee and
Roland Mackenzie suddenly have
given Washington roofing in
terest in the National Amateur golf
championship, welcome relief to
the dull pace of the local tourna-
ment season. They qualified, along
with Eddie Johnston of the Country
Club of Maryland, in the sectional
trials yesterday at Baltimore's Five
Farms course.
Brownell, idle from a competitive
standpoint this season except for an
appearance in the Maryland Open
and a social tournament, was a
trif1e rusty but still able to do some
thing he's been doing for years
beat this sections best amateurs
almost every time out.
With 10 days to work on his game
Brownell might be dangerous. He
is not playing the golf he was play
ing this time last year when he led
Nation in qualifying, but he might
regain the touch awfully quick.
Best Golf Last Year.
In 1941, the year he entered the
FBI, and last year, Brownell was
playing the best golf of his career
and the folks who know golf will
tell you he probably was as good
as any amateur in the country. But
both years something prevented him
from making the trip to the Ma
tional.
Nee and Mackenzie are the type
players who on a given round could
beat anybody in the National ANA
teur field, or on the other hand also
could lose to any 10 handicap men,
Der of their clubs. But they might
make it interesting and Nee, partic-
ularly, is playing his best golf since
his Georgetown Prep days Of about
Is years ago.
Baltimore Country Club was not
conducive to low scoring yesterday.
1t was long, wet, and the host club
members temporarily are apologizing
for its condition. Five Farms is
slated to get the National Amateur

ways, which leave a lot of bare spots
They want to have velvet fairways
three years from now and the only
way they can do 1t Is to sacrifice
condition for one summer.
