latest triumph over Phil Mus
cato was anything but difficult
for the aging Moore. Not that
Muscato wasn't game, the Buff
falo slugger was just out of his
class.
Moore, fighting & several
pounds over his best weight,
was the master at all times and
wasn't hit more than four or
five times d during g the fight.
After the fourth round there
was little doubt that Moore
wouldn't win by a knockout.
Probably the m ost exciting
fight on the card was the six
rounder bet w cen Toledo's
Johnny O'Connor and Yussell
Layton. These two had the
crowd on the edge of their seats
most of the time.
All in all it was one of the
better fight shows seen here in
many years.

BOWLING
Heretofore, a great deal of
guess work was involved in de-
cisionS as to whether a bowler
has stepped over the foul line or
not. But not today; the electric
eye flashes a signal when ever a
bowler is guilty.
HORSE RACING
For many months the more
progressive tracks have used the
electric eye camera which in
stantly records the time of the
race and photographs the first
horse across the finish line.
TELEVISION
Television has also entered in
to the sports world, and before
long, international chess games
and other events of this nature
may be daily events. Mike
Jacobs, famous boxing promoter,
predicts future fights can be
staged in small room to a tele-
vision audience of millions.

Although not on par with
the highly successful seasons of
the early 1940's, department
field men point out that the 1949
season should be close to aver

In the first two days of the
season department observers
contacted 1886 hunters on farm
lands who had bagged 1852
pheasants, nearly bird a piece.
During the first three days of
the 1948 season, field checkers
contacted 681 hunters on private
land who had shot 277 birds,

BASEBALL

Baseball seems to be, the one
sport which will be least affected
by the electric eye. The batters
hands or bat would break the
beam when swinging and it
would be impossible to tell ball
from strike. However, in prac-
tice sessions, the electric eye can
be used by pitchers to determine
if balls are getting across the

In track much can be done in

time for the race. This will eli
inmate the confusion as to
whether or not a new record for

Previously in the high jump,
or pole vault at a track meet a

$4,000 Assessment
In Kensington Ha|ved

A $4,000 assessment on 40 lots
and an 18-room house in Ken
sinbton has been found excessive
and cut more than half by the
State Tax Commission, it was
learned today.
James H. Pugh, representing
Mrs. Frederick McKenney Rapley
and Mrs. Virginia McKenney
Dunn, heirs of Frederic McKen-
ney, Washington attorney. said
the State Tax Commission had
placed a $4,000 assessment on the
property.
Mr.. Pugh said he appealed the
original assessment to the tax
commission after the Montgom-
cry County Appeal Tax Court up
held the assessment of Wilton T.
Allen, county assessment super
visor.
Mr.. Pugh claimed the original
evaIuation was excessive and that
the method used in assessing the
property was not in compliance
with State law.
The law, he explained, provides
that land and buildings shall be
assessed separately and that the
buildings shall be assessed only
in proportion to the amount they
add to the fair market value. of
the land.
He said the commission found
that the land actually would be
more valuable without the 18-
room house, which he described
as very old structure"

He Is Not Obligated 10

Tuck says he is not obligated "to
provide money in the budget for
matching either Federal or local
funds for any activity to an ex-
tent which would unfairly dis

Hits "Wasteful" U. S. Programs
| The Governor replied last night
saying the State is not obligated
to match funds provided by other
agencies and at the same time
took crack at irresponsible
and "wasteful" Federal aid pro-
grams.
Gov. Tuck's letter to Mr.. Fen
wick said, in part:
Il do not find in your letter any
concern over the financial ability
of the State at this time to match
Federal and local funds for well
fare purposes, nor any considera-
ton for many other essential
activities which merit sympathetic
attention by me in the prepara-
ton of the burget."
To provide in full for all re-
quests made, Gov. Tuck observed
would mean the imposition OF
additional taxes which would place
an insupportable burden on the
people OF Virginia.
Refers to Paragraph in Act.
Mr.. Fenwick noted in his let:
ter that the General Assembly:
