Name Golfers Given
Break in Draw for
Women S Amateur
BY ths Associated Pres.

| PROVIDENCE, r. l., Aug. %.
The United States Golf Asso-
citation today modified its sport
ing"-or blind-draw for the
Women's Natio nal Amateur
championship in order to give
the better-known players SPORT
ing chance to escape upsets.
AS the names of ,499 players
were drawn for the first and
second rounds Monday, the
USGA committee decided to
spot the ex-champions, Curtis
Cup team members and the
British and Canadian tltlehold-
ers at intervals through the
brackets.
1t wasn't exactly a seeding, as
no particular effort was made to
rank the players selected, but it
did make sure that two of the
name" players wouldn't meet
on the first day of play. The
spotting was done by means of
a separate draw and it came out
so that two top teen-age fav-
orites, Marlene Stewart British
champion of Fonthill, Ont, and
Pat Lesser of Seattle, low anna
teur In the United States Wom-
ems open, landed In opposite
halves of the draw.
Other Seeded Players.
The other "seeds" went to
Mrs. Glenna Collett Ware of
Philadelphia, six-time winner of
the United States title, Grace
Lenczyk of Newington. Conn.
Mrs. Mark A. Porter of Manoa,
Pa, and Dorothy Kirby of At
lanta. also ex-champions; Bar
bara Romack of Sacramento, the
Canadian champion; and Curtis
Cup players Mrs. Howard Smith
(Grace Demoss) of Corvallis.
Greg. Claire Doran of Cleveland,
Mrs. Marjorie Lindsay McMillen
of Decatur, ILL.,. Mae Murray of
Rutland, VT. Pat O'Sullivan of
Orange, Conn, and Polly Riley
of Fort Worth.
In spite of this effort, the
blind part of the draw turned
up a few hot matches for the
opening day. The only one of
the selected players to draw a
dangerous opponent was Miss
Murray, who will encounter the
local champion, Mrs. John
Huelting, in a second-round
match.
DOwney Jansen Match.
But the first round will bring
such matches as Mary Ann
Downey, Baltimore, VS.. Mary
Jansen, Charlottesville, Va, the
Middle Atlantic Champion, and
Mary Agnes Wall, Menominee,
Mich, veteran VS.. 16-year-old
Ann Quasi. of Everett, Wash,
The second includes a meeting
between Carol Diringer, Tif1n,
Ohio, and another star 16-year-
old, Berridge Long. Huntington,
w. Va. Miss Lesser and Miss
Doran will clash in the third
round Tuesday.
Because of the unWieldy field,
it was necessary to draw up a
schedule which won't come out
even until the end of the second
day.
All first-round matches and
the second round for those who
drew byes through the first will
be played Monday. On Tuesday,
the second round will be COM
pleted and the winners will come
back to play a second time in
the late afternoon and COM
plete the third round.
| Another double round is
scheduled for Thursday, when
the fifth and sixth round
matches will be played, bringing
the tournament to the semif1nal
| stage.

golf championship tonight with
a record -equaling third-round 81
and 54-hole total of 260.
Four strokes behind the pace
going into today's 18, the big
dark haired American used a
new putter to charge past Jerry
Barber of La Canada, Calf,
leader after So holes, with his
six-under-par round. Barber,
who set the course record with

day. ballooned to an even-par
10 today for a 202-total and

of 139 and Burkemo, dark-horse

|Youngster Conquers
Strafaci 10 Reach
Western Golf Finals
By the A.soeiated Press

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Aug
"a. - Dick Norton, a skinny
youngster from Grand Rapids
who whistles while he golfs. and
veteran Dale Morey. a sandpaper
salesman who is rough on the
greens. shot their way into the
finals Of the Western Amateur
golf championship today.
Urged on by some 5000 home
town followers. the lanky 6-foot-
3 Norton upset medalist Frank
Strafaci of Garden City. N. Y,
4 and 8 in their 36-hole semi
final match.
Morey, a fidgety SHOEMAKER
from Martinsville, Ind, advanced
with q 6 and 4 victory over
Crooner Don Cherry of Wichita
Falls. Tex.
The two winners will meet in
36 holes tomorrow over the
B1ythefleld Country Club course
for the title.
Both Grab Early Lead.
Both Norton and Morley gained
the finals in similar fashion-by
grabbing an early lead and nurs-
ing it to victory.
Norton, co-captain of the Pur-
due University golf team. went
2 up against the scrambling
Strafaci in the morning round,
He was straight with both his
tee shots and irons while the
easy-going Strafaci. .favorite
with the crowd even though they
were roofing against him, went
from rough to rough on almost
every hole.
Strafaci had five bogies on the
first nine holes and never re-
covered. He called it "the worst
nine holes I have ever shot"
Norton. who at 81 is the
youngest player since 1909 to
reach the finals, built a Sup
lead after "a holes. After a
brief rally by Strafaci, he closed
it out on the 33d with a par 3
He was three undar par for the
distance.
Strafaci Finds HumOr.
Even though Strafaci took ar
unexpected lacing, he found
some humor in his plight. AS he
was just about to hit a flve-foot
putt in the morning, four butter
flies blocked his vision.
Strafaci turned to the gallery
and said:
They're okay they just
flew out of my stomach"
Morey was in complete COM
mand in his match against
Cherry. The 32-year-old Hoosier
former basketball star at
Louisiana State, held a 4 up lead
after the morning round. A pair
of 20-foot puts helped him build
this margin.
Cherry chopped two holes of
Morey'S lead by taking the 18th
hole with par and the 23d with
a birdie. But that's the closest
he got as Morey started hitting
his puts again and went 3 up
on the 26th hole.

Skin Plane for Clearing Face
OfScors Used by D. c. Doctor

A dramatic new technique for
Kidding the face of wrinkles,
acne scars and other disfiguring
marks by freezing and literally
planning the scar areas has been
reported by a New York derma-
tologist and is in use by at least
one Washington physician.
The procedure was described
by DR.. Abner Kurtin of New
York in the American Medical
Associations Archives of Derma-
tology. He reported dramatically
successful results in 273 cases.
In II cases during the last
month the procedure also has
been used successfully by a
Washington doctor who trained
under DR.. Kurtin last summer.
Under District Medical Society
policies the local doctors name
was not made public.
The skin plane" an electri-
cally driven circular brush of
steel wires which rotateS up to a
speed of 10000 revolutions per
minute, literally wipes away dis
figuring tissues.
The procedure calls for chill
ing the scar area with an ice
pack, and then freezing it with
sprays of air and ethyl chloride.
Freezing occurs within seconds,
and then planning can begin.
The treatment, DR.. Kurtin
wrote. is applied to three inch
surfaces at a time. After the
planning is finished, a dry gauze
is used to coat the area, with
complete healings usually oc-

curing within a week. The tech
nique can be repeated if neces-
Sary.
DR.. Kurtin said the procedure,
which can be performed in a
doctors Office, leaves the healed
skin soft, pliable and fresh in
appearance.
OF the 273 cases, 249 involved
acne scars which required two
to four plannings before maxi
mum improvement. Two cases
involving very severe smallpox
and chickenpox scars responded
in almost total clearing.
DR.. Kurtin said wrinkled skin
responds in remarkable way.
He said superficial wrinkles are
easily removed. leaving the re-
generated skin fresh and youth
full looking.
Other conditions on which he
reported included severe trau-
matte scars and small skin
malignancies. He said it also
was "the best treatment I have
tried thus far for removing
tattooS."

Standardizing Urged
For Truck Tail Lights
To Cut Fatal Crashes
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j.,
Nov. 14.-The New Jersey Turn
pixies chief engineer today called
for nationwide standardization
of truck tail lights to reduce the
number of fatal rear-end colli-
SionS.
Charles M. Noble said in a
statement that SO per cent of all
fatal rear -end collisions on the
118-mile superhighway involved
motorists who rammed trucks
at night.
Rear-end collisions accounted
for 35 per cent of the fatal acci-
dents from the time the turn
pike opened in late 1851 through
July, 1853, he said.
Lights Vary Widely.
Truck tail lights, Mr.. Noble
said, range from multiple bulb.
brilliant Christmas tree" ar
rangements down to single,
wheel level. low power lights.
The Interstate Commerce
Commission requires a single
tail light for most trucks. and
twin lights for trucks produced
after July of this year. New
Jersey law requires a single light
visible for 500 feet.
Mr.. Noble said the average
truck tail light has only one
candlepower, while standard pas
senger-car lights range from
seven to ten candlepower and
are visible for a mile on a clear
night.
Urges Equal Brilliance.
Mr.. Mobiles recommendations
include:
1.-The candlepower of truck tail
lights should be increased to
uniform brilliance, preferably up
to the seven to ten candlepower
of passenger cars.
THE lights should be installed
at uniform height above the
roadway to eliminate loss of bril-
lance as a result of clinging
mud and snow. Since most
trucks have no rear tenders, they
throw up considerable road ma
terial which cuts down on tail
light brilliance.
"a standard pattern, specify
ing the most effective number
and placement of lights should
be developed.
"a signal should be installed
in the truck cab to warn the
driver when his tail lights are
not operating"

Journalism Fraternity
Condemns Excess
Federal Secrecy
BY the Associated Preas

ST. LOUIS. Nov. 14-Sigma
Delta Chi, national Journalism
fraternity, today condemned as
a threat to the American way of
life any secrecy in Federal Gov
ernment which cannot be justi-
fed as being in the public in
tereSt.
The attack against news Gen.
sorship and secrecy in govern
ment came in a modified policy
report adopted with three SINH
lar resolutions as the group
closed it's annual three-day con-
vention here.
After two hours of floor de-
bate, the convention finally ap-
proved the report with a quail
, fed attack against secrecy. Orig
! inally the report, submitted by
the fraternity's Committee for
the Advancement of Freedom of
Information, urged opposition to
all forms of secrecy.
Some Secrecy Necessary.
1t was during the debate that
the convention delegates-com-
prised of the Nations newsmen,
editors and members of asso-
ciated news fields - supported
the need for secrecy in some
cases to protect the Nations in
terestS.
Tully Nettleton of the Chris
tian Science Monitor pointed out
the danger in publicly disclosing
matters of national security. He
also noted that it would be i'm
practical to break in to the
secrecy of the delicate diplo-
matte negotiations, a move
which would make "grandstand-
ers of men who should be ne
gotiators."
The approved report also
urged all members of the fra
ternity to support the elimina-
ton of censorship of govern
ment records "now so prevalent
in our Federal executive agen-
cies" and to eliminate secret con-
gressional meetings (which have
removed the great protection of
the restraint of public opinion
from our peoples government"
A separate resolution stated
Stigma Delta Chi advocates
and makes known to members
of Congress it's advocacy of full
and automatic disclosures of
how each member of Congress
voted in executive or closed COM
mittee sessions on all measures"
The condemnation of secrecy
and censorship applied to all
levels of Government, with par
ticular emphasis at the Federal
level.
Seek EvaluatiOn of Fairness.
In another resolution the fra
ternity directed its committee
on journalistic research to re-
port to next years convention at
Columbus, Ohio, what can be
done to develop standard tech
nique to measure and evaluate
the fairness of the press on any
public issue.
Also approved was a resolution
supporting proposed exchange
program which would permit
journalists from the United
States and Canada to work and
travel within the two countries,
Robert U. Brown. editor of
Editor & Publisher, was elected
president of the fraternity for
1953-54. John Cowles, publisher
of the Minneapolis Star and Tri-
bune. was named national hon.

Overshadowed by the big bad
Yankees, the hopeful Cleveland
Indians are brewing their own pri-
vate little winning streak in their
Ohio wigwam. If they can nurse
ii to the boiling polnt by the week
end, there may vet be some ex-
element in the American League
pennant race
The second-place Indians, 512
games back of New York, have
won seven out of eight and six
in a row on their current home
stand against the Eastern clubs.
Two games remain against Wash
ington before the Yanks come in
Friday night for four game
series.
While the New Workers have
been blowing down most of their
foes with amazing ease in winning
dozen straight, the Indians have
had to Scramble all the way. Three
of their victories, Including last
nights 81 squeaker ever Wash
ington, have been by one run
margins. And in five of the games
they have had 70 Come from be-
hind, or break a tie, to win.
Against Washington, Bob Lemon
gave up only two hits but trailed
10 after ia innings. The Indians
loaded the bases with two out in
the eighth and got tkeir two runs
when pineh-hitter Hank Majeski
scratched a single off the glove of
pitcher Johnny Schmitz.
Cleveland has looked mighty pitt
full in losing its jrst three games
with New York this season. But
with Lemon, Bobby Feller and
Mike Garcia all showing fine form
the past week, the forthcoming
series might produce something
different.
The Detroit Tigers tried might
lily to expand their good win
ming streak at the expense of the
Yankees, but failed, 30, when
Tom German stopped them cold
