"One Of the first things I'll
try to do is to get this team
back into q happy family" "
Pollard said. They looked
like a fine club beating st.
Louis last year and there's no
reason why they can't click
again"
Asked what style Of play he
plans, Pollard laughed: THE
idea is to get the ball through
the hoop. That's going to be
our fundamental style"

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 2 (AP).-
Cliff Hagan's rebound basket
with 38 seconds left in the
game gave the st. Louis Hawks
a 114-113 victory over the De-
troit PiStons here tonight in a
National Basketball Association
game.
Detroit had two opportuni-
ties to tie the score after Ha-
gan's follow up of Bob Pettit's
missed shot put the Hawks
ahead, Halle. Chuck Noble
was fouled by Dugie Martin
with 33 seconds left and missed
his first shot before making, the
second to pull the Pistons with
in one point, 114-113.
Walter Dukes rebounded a
missed hook shot by Hagan
and Detroit called time out
with five seconds remaining. A
hurried hook shot by Dukes
from the foul line bounded of
the rim as the final horn

State Golf Association vice
president and State amateur
champion said. I'm sure al
golfers will be for it. And for
three years we have been per-
mitting contestants to clean
the ball and repair ball marks
before putting in our State
tournaments, and I'm happy
to see we will be with the USGA
and not an exception in the
future"
WARD BURGESS-'The diff
ference Of one stroke or two in
the out Of bounds penalty will
affect the touring pros and
some club golfers" the Chevy
Chase pro said, but at our
club for instance it's almost
impossible to hit a ball out of
bounds. And remember most
club events are at match play
so I'm not sure the change
will have too much affect on
the game, I believe the ruling
on granting permission to clean
the ball and repair ball marks
Is Of equal Importance"
HENRY GERARDI-"It's a
great break for tournament
players" the Norbeck pro
sated, but it puts to an end
the day when you could watch
your opponent knock a ball out
Of bounds and then feel you
had the hole won. Now a one
stroke difference will not be
too much to overcome.
BOBBY BROWNELL-"I like
the common one-stroke pen
atty for the out of bounds, un-
playable lie and lost ball." the
11-time District Amateur
champion said, but I'm even
more in favor of cleaning the
ball. There's too much luck in
the game now and having to
putt with mud on a ball is
strictly luck. Brownell added
that he knew the golf course
superintendentS were over
whelmingly in favor of repair
ing ball marks before putting.
THAT rule will help the
courses more than the golfers" I"
Bobby added.
MAX ELBIN-"The lessening
Of the out Of bounds penalty
is a great break for the average
golfer" the Burning Tree pro
and past president Of the Mid
die Atlantic PGA said. Hereto
fore 1t appears the USGA con-
sidered 1t a greater sin to knock
a ball out Of bounds than to
miss it entirely. And the PGA
recommended for at least two
years that the golfers be per-
mitted to repair ball marks be-
fore putting. This certainly will
make for fewer scars on the
greens"

TEE TO GREEN
By MERRELL WHITTLEsEY

The United States Golf AS
sociation has ruled that, ef-
fective 1901 am. last Friday,
the common penalty for out of
bounds, lost ball and unplay-
able lie shall be one stroke.
Or, 1t will be distance only,
not stroke and distance.
It's an experiment for 1860,
adopted by the USGA only, and
not by Britain's Royal and An
cient. which is sticking to the
two-stroke assessment for out
Of bounds and an unplayable
lie.
There are numerous rules
changes for 80 but most of
them minor. some Just different
interpretations. The big ones
are the above named, and the
one making it permissible to
clean the ball and repair ball
marks before putting.
Some capsule comment from
District personalities.
FRED McLEOD-The Colum-
bia pro, who on occasion sticks
with the R&A, sides with the
USGA this time, and predicts
the British will lessen the pen
atty in a year or two. I'm for
the one-stroke penalty" Mr..
Mac. said. And as for cleaning
the ball, the charge comes a bit
late for me, I lost the United
States Open Championship and
the Western Open in 1911 be-
cause Of putting with mud on
the ball"
JIMMY CLARK-The assis-
tant pro at Washington G&CC,
said. It'll return our members
to the free swing on the first
hole. They used to aim every
thing to the right" Washing
ton has a tight out Of bounds
to the left on No. /, and Clark
estimated at least 20 balls were
knocked out Of bounds any
busy day.
CLAGETT STEVENS -" FIT
teen years ago the 2-stroke
penalty for out Of bounds was
not too bad" the Manor pro
said. but now with subdivisions
surrounding so many courses
I'm glad to see them cut the
penalty to a stroke. At our
club alone we have 18 places
where you can knock a ball
out"
WIFFY COX-"Stroke and
distance was too severe a PEN
atty for out Of bounds" the
Congressional pro said, II think
the rules changes are for the
better. THE game is tough
enough without such a severe
penalty for what at times
can be a slight mistake"

these boys became expert at
construction and another
trade was mushrooming and
forms of self support were
reaping rewards.

Proponents: If there was q

when a bi-State treaty gave
Virginia equal fishing rights in
the Potomac. For the first time,
VirginianS agreed in writing
in the new compact that Mary
land owns the river. Existing
Maryland laws will remain in
effect unless and until changed
by the bi-State commission,
and any change would require
approval Of at least two Of the

Opponents: Maryland is sur
rendering her rights to a BIZ
State agency. There has never
been any question of Mary
lands ownership of the river,
and such a concession by Vir-
GINA is like agreeing that wa
ter is wet. Virginians agreed
to let Maryland law remain in

Furthermore, the Government

Here are some examples OF
what an employee will be en-

If he works 8 am. to $50

If he works 8 am. to 4:30

the end of his day.
If he works 1880 am. to 4

In Supreme Court

Proponents; Maryland's alb
rogation of the 1875 treaty be-
tween the two jurisdictions is
likely to be overruled, in which
event the 17s5 compact would
be the governing document and
no progress would have been
made. Even if Maryland wins
the court case, it would be q
hollow victory because Vir-
ginians would still have equal
fishing rights under Maryland
law but none of the response
bility of law enforcement or
conservation.
Opponents: Maryland might
win the case, and even if it
loses. the State would be no
worse off than it was before.
In either event, Maryland
would be in a better position
to bargain with Virginia for a
better compact.

If a Federal employee has
three hours in which to vote
in Maryland or Virginia tomor-
row. either before or after his
regular working hours, he will
be ineligible for time off from
work.
A presidential directive issued
in 1858 still has many Govern
ment workers confused. 1t is
further complicated by the
fact that polling hours are diff
ferent in Maryland and Vir-
GINA. therefore different rules
apply.
In both States, polls close at
Z pm. but in Virginia they open
at 6 am. and in Maryland at
Z am.
The Governments policy
boils down to this: Time will
be allowed off. either at the
beginning or the end of a work
day, to allow an employee a total
Of three hours In which to vote
- including his own time.

Dredging Bon

Proponents: Virginia gave in
to Maryland watermen's de-
mands for a ban on oyster
dredging and the leasing Of
public oyster bars unless ap-
proved by the Legislatures of
both States. This became a
compact provision in spite of
the feeling of the compact
negotiators that this should be
left to the discretion Of the six
man commission.
Opponents: There is contro-
versy over whether dredging
is harmful to conservation in
all instances. The value Of the
total ban on dredging and on
leasing the bars to private
interests, which might be in a
position to put up more capital
for repletion purposes. is open
to question.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1960-11-07
Enforcement

Proponents: Virginia will be
required jointly to enforce the
regulations of the bi-State COM
mission. A shortcoming of the
previous setup was that a viola
tor could be tried only in his
own State. Under the compact,
lawbreakers could be tried in
either State regardless of where
they live.
Opponents: Virginia agreed
years ago jointly to enforce the
fishery laws but has done so
only haphazardly. Virginia vio-
lators have in fact been tried
in Maryland courts for years.
Marylanders should not have to
stand trial in another State for
alleged offenses occurring on
territory (the river) owned
entirely by Maryland.

Boy Authority

Proponents: Virginia h a s
never shown any disposition to
accept the suggestion that a BIZ
State agency be set up to con-
troll fishing over the entire Ches-
apeake Bay area and its trib-
utaries. Approval of the Po-
tomac compact may be a step
in that direction, but rejection
of it is more likely to result in
deteriorating relations rather
than agreement. The compact
will promote joint conservation
of seafood resources at least in
the Potomac and will require
Virginia to assume equal finan-
cial and administrative respon-
sibility-something it hasn't
done in the past.
Opponents: A compact would
