City Tourney Victory
boIsters KoVaIeski's
Top Ranking Here

Big Fred Kovaleski's reign as
kingpin Of mems tennis in Wash
tngton seems secure for another
year following his victory over
Bernie Schneider Of Baltimore
for the City Of Washington tour
nament crown yesterday at
Edgemoor Tennis Club.
At the same time, Charlotte
Decker served notice that she'll
be a strong candidate for No. l
ranking among the women by
turning back Pearl Mccoy. 6-3,
6-2. for the women's title. Miss
Decker's trip was considerably
rougher. however.
Kovaleski, who didn't lose a
set in the tournament, blasted
Jim Thackara in the semiflnals,
6-4. 6-3. before going to work
on Schreiber. The results DEM
onstrated that at his best the
6-foot-2 SHOEMAKER is too good
for local competition.
Lynch Puts Up Battle.
Schreiber, seeded eighth, up
set second-Seeded Tom Boys to
reach the Semifinals, then
squeezed by veteran Hugh Lynch
to meet Kovaleski. Beraie had
trouble with Lynch, who flashed
some of his old form before bow
ing out, 60, As. Ga.
Thackara, riding into the title
round on decisive victories over
DR.. David. Johnson and Don
Leavens. played good tennis in
the semifinals. But shots that
scored for him in earlier rounds
came back bearing Kovaleski's
trademark yesterday. Jim's usu-
ally effective crosS-court game
didn't stand up against the
champs net-crowding tactics.
Kovaleski's expert volleying
kept Schneider on the run in
the finals. It was discouraging
for the loser. too, to see we'll
placed shots returned by Kovale-
ski: The latter's long reach ham
dily took care of shots that
might have counted against an
average player.
Lynch Worn Down..
Lynch's Second-set triumph
over Schneider gave the fans
some of the best competitive
tennis of the day. The veteran
chased the former Miami Uni
versity star to the baseline with
a salvo of deep voIleys, then
came to the net to put away the
returns. Lynch, however, failed
to continue his attack effectively
in the deciding set and Schreiber
gradually assumed command.
Miss Decker's all-around game
was a little too strong for Miss
Mccoy, although it was nip and
tuck in the early stages of the
match. The loser conceded
nothing but couldn't match her
rivals consistency.
Mrs. Gil Bogley. wife Of the
former National Junior cham
pion, and Frances Bassett de-
feated Mildred Smith and Joan
Deigert in a grueling battle for
the women's doubles crown. The
scores were 81, 4-6, 6-3, and
the issue was in doubt until the
winners, match winning point
went up on the board. Mrs.
Bogley is the No. 2 ranking play

That Congress appropriate the funds
necessary to pay all compromise
settlement evacuation claims "a
wards made by the Department of
Justice for the fiscal years 1852 and
1858, the Washington office of the
japanese American Citizens League
was informed today.
Congressman Sidney r. Yates
3D., ILL., told the Washington office
of this decision after receiving a
letter from the Director of the Bud
get to this effect.
Last week, at the request of Mike
MasaOka, Washington JACL repre-
sentative, Congressman Yates, who
is a member of the House apprOpri-
ations committee, urged Dodge to
approve the full amount requested
by the Justicedepartment for ap-
proximateIy nine million dollars TO
pay awards compromised and set
tied by the government for the last
and current fiscal years.
Dodges letter in substance implies
that his agency did approve this
amount and will recommend that
Congress appropriate the needed
funds to pay these awards
Masaoka hailed this announce
ment as meaning that all evacuees
whose claims have been settled but
who have not yet been paid will
probably receive their checks by
summer He also commended Con-
gresham Yates for his prompt at
tention to the problem presented
him last week
AS the Washington representative
sees the picture, the Budget Bureau
will soon send up to Congress a sup

he could see across the street

New Contractor Called.
A new contractor, the Merando
Co., Inc, was called on the scene
by Chief Building Inspector j. j.
kimball to save the house. To-
day, workmen had two Of the
four 60-foot trusses up against
the side of the house. Merando's S
general superintendent said the
project may require rebuilding of
the entire wall.
Meanwhile, the Motens and
Smith are housed with relatives.
Mrs. Moten said they paid SILL

months ago and had to move out
in July after the building inspec-

strengthened.

for whom a store structure was
