Victory Over Colonials
Encourages Hoyas
In Golf Title Quest
Despite Georgetown's two one
sided defeats against one victory on
last week’s Southern trip, Coach
Ray Guiney is confident the Hoyas
stack up as the team to beat in
their section of the Eastern Inter
collegiate Golf League.
Yesterday's 5%-to-3^4 triumph
over George Washington at Ken
wood was encouraging to the Hoyas
as it was the first time they have
played what probably will be then
top six men. The first match against
Dartmouth, which Georgetown won,
was an 8-man affair and in losing
to North Carolina and Washington
and# Lee and beating VMI down
South, the Hoyas fielded a patched
lineup.
The Hoyas may learn more of
their chances in week end matches
with Pram State and Kenwood Fri
day and Fairfax Saturday. Although
the Nittany Lions are in another
section of the Eastern League and
the matches here are not league
tests, they nevertheless will give
G. U. a line on what to expect from
circuit rivals.
The scoring was not good in yes
terday’s match, with 77s by Ray
Larrow and John King of the Hoyas
and Billy Griffin, Dave Wortman
and Jay Wolf of the Colonials best.
G. W. had only one out of town
player, Paul Temple, while George
town did not use one of its local
boys.
Charles McCarthy was the key
man for the Hoyas as he won the
No. 8 match and teeamed with Hugh
Markey for a vital best ball point
to give the Hoyas the triumph.

Georgetown’s victory over Mary

Georgetown - George Washington
baseball game of prime importance

Tech Beats G.W. High,
Hopes to Improve
On 1946 Record
Tech looks ready to Improve on
last year’s fifth-place finish in the
District public high baseball race.
Most of the boys are experienced in
either high school or sandlot ball,
and the all-around hitting is good.
Pitching is the big thing in the high
school game, and the Maroons are
equipped with two better - than -
average hurlers in Bob Jones and
Bill (Lefty) Burlingame, both vet
erans of last year's team.
Jones tossed a five-hitter as Tech
! topped George Washington High of
i Alexandria, 7-4, yesterday. He prob
ably will draw the assignment on
Friday when the Maroons open the
title series against Coolidge, last
year’s winner. Tech started with a
4-run first inning yesterday and
coasted home. Feature was a third
inning homer by Romano Mascetti
with one on.
Best pitching job around District
public highs yesterday was a 1-hltter
tossed by Western’s Fred Cahoon as
the Red Raiders blanked Devitt, 4-0.
He fanned eight and gave only one
pass. Jim Stratos, a second-stringer
last year but now a fixture in left
field, was the big hitter with two
blows, one a triple.
Two other teams prepping for
Friday’s series openers ran into
trouble yesterday. Gonzaga came up
with a 7-run inning in the eighth
to beat Anacostia, 8-4,« and Devitt
stopped Central, 3-0.
Coolidge Golfers Get
Good Start in Series
Coolidge is away fast in defense
of its interhigh golf championship.
The Colts blanked Central, 6-0, at
Manor yesterday as competition
started in both the District public
high race and the metropolitan
scholastic series.
Richie Sturgis anchored the Cool
idge team, stopping Bud Foy of
Central with an 8 and 6 win. Sturgis
was only 2 over par for the 12 holes.

FBI Arrests Jeffra,
Burman, Promoter
On Draft Charges
•y th* Axacmtac! Pros
BALTIMORE, April 16.—The FBI
today announced the arrest of Harry
Jaffra, one time former bantam
weight and featherweight champion.
“Red" Burman, heavyweight con
tender, and Boxing Promoter Na
than E. Phillips cm draft evasion
Indictments.
The indictments were returned
yesterday by a Federal grand jury
and charged the fighters obtained
draft deferments on statements
made by themselves and Phillips
that they were employed by a firm
servicing ships that transported
military supplies overseas.
Peter C. Galiano, who fought in
the East 10 years ago and attempted
a comeback in 1944, was named in
a similar indictment.
Jeffra recently embarked on a
comeback as a featherweight. Bur
man faded after Joe Louis knocked
him out at Madison Square Garden
in 1942.
The indictments charge that the
fighters and Phillips, an officer of
the American Ship Cleaning Co., got
deferments on false statements that
the boxers were employed in essen
tial jobs by the ship servicing firm.
Burman was reported as a full
time foreman, but the indictment
charges he was not acutally work
ing at the job. Jeffra was certified
to his draft board as an Mnmnnitiwn
handler working for the company at
the Baltimore port of embarkation.
The indictment against him charges
that in reality he was training and
fighting throughout the United
States and Canada.
All of the accused live in Balti
more. The alleged draft violations
were in the fall of 1944.
Jeffra, Bur&ian and Gallano all
have fought several times in Wash
ington, Jeffra particularly being re
membered for his world feather
weight championship fights against
Joe Archibald. He lost twice to
Archibald in title bouts here, the
first resulting in quite a ruckus that
threatened for a time to end pro
fighting in Washington.
Burman beat Eddie Mader hen to
1938 and Dutch Weimar to IMS.
Gallano drew against Mails Starr
in 1943 here and lost to Joey Silva
in 1939 and to Eddie Alzek in 1937.
Smith Hurls 1-Hitter
For Sidwell Friends
Duff Smith’s one-hit mound per
formance was the highlight of yes
terday’s schoolboy non-champion
ship diamond play. Smith pitched
the Sidwell Friends nine to a 6-0
win over Priory at Friends.
Woodward, Charlotte Hall, St.
Anthony’s and Bethesda-Ohevy
Chase also scored victories. The
Red Devils beat Columbia Tech,
11-5; Charlotte Hall blanked West
Nottingham, Md., 9-0; St. Anthony’s
drubbed Sherwood, 11-4, and the
Barons downed Gaithersburg, 9-8.
Joe Watkins Md A1 Parton, with
three safeties each, paced Woodward
to its third straight win of the sea
son. The game was played on the
Ellipse.
Charlotte Hall’s Abie: Koledna got
three hits for three trips to lead his
team to their victory at Leonard
town, while Joe La Billie slammed
out a triple and single and batted
in three runs for St. Anthony’s.
Bob Shoemaker turned in a two
hit pitching job for the Barons.
Dick Latimer was the big gun at the
plate with a triple and single in
three trips.

Babe Zaharias Turns Eyes
On New Goal—British Title
By tho Associated Press
PINEHURST, N. C.( April 16.— 1
Mrs. Babe Didrikson Zaharias,
the national women’s golf cham
pion, has a new ambition—to be
the first American to win the
British championship.
Americans have won the Brit
ish Open and men’s amateur, but
never have brought home the
women’s crown. Glenna Collett,
American ace of the 20s and early
30s, twice reached the finals, but
couldn’t gain that last triumph.
The Babe, who has reached the
top in every sport that has at
tracted her interest, generally
realizes her ambitions. With some
sort of grand slam record to date
to her credit—14 straight tourna
ment victories since she won the
National at Tulsa last summer— j
Mrs. Zaharias will sail for Eng
land in May after the Trans
Mississippi tourney at New Or
leans, and will play in the British
championship at Gillan, Scotland,
starting June 9. Later she’ll play
In the Scottish championship.
How’ll she do? She thinks
she’ll win. Why? Because she
thinks she can beat any woman
golfer in the world.
The Babe isn’t really cocky or
boastful. She just sizes up all
the angles and gives you her an
swer. She thinks she works
harder at golf than any other
woman and she knows she has
the shots. She has the fight, the
stamina and the ability. She
thinks she has more .of all of
these than any of the other wom
en players.
“I want to win the British
women’s title for George,” the
Babe explains.
He’s her husband, George Za
haries, the former professional
wrestler and Denver sports pro
moter, who follows her in every
match and is prouder of her golf
conquests than of anything he
ever did in a sports way.
He'll be at Gillan, chaproning
the Babe around.
Ten years ago—Joe Di Maggio,
New York Yankee outfielder, was
operated on for the removal of
his tonsils and adenoids.

Fugler Yields 1 Hit,
A. U. Routs Gallaudet
Baseball Coach Staff Cassell was
stuck ft* a pitcher yesterday when
American University played Gallau
det, so it was only natural that he
should call on Bart Fugler, the
Eagles’ round-the-calendar per
former, to pitch A. U. to a 12-3
triumph.
Fugler was captain of the basket
ball team. He played in the back
fleld when A. U. had a football team
and was a member of the tennis
team in 1942. He was a last-minute
sub on the track team before the
war and a point winner.
Bart had not /pitched in college
competition, but Cassell handed him
a ball and said “keep it low.” In a
seven-inning performance, Fugler
pitched no-hit ball for the first six
Innings and gave up at single to the
Bisons’ Shumacher in the seventh.
He walked 10, but he also struck
out 10. A. U. Tommy Hamlin pitched
the last two innings.
Meanwhile, Joe Hossick and Irv
Jacobsen led an 11-hit A. U. attack
with three apiece. John McLaughlin
was slated to hurl for the Eagles
today against Loyola of Baltimore
at A. U.

Early Crowds Indicate Record
Season Here on Public Links
By Merrell Whittlesey
District public links golfers will
set an all-time rounds-played rec
ord for East Potomac’s 32 holes and
the 18-hole layouts at Rock Creek
and Anacostia this season if the
early-eeason crowds can be used
as a yardstick.
If a new mark is set it prob
ably will be short lived, however,
as work soon will begin on the
new nine holes at Fort Du Pont,
separated from the present Ana
costia layout by Minnesota ave
nue S.E.
8. G. Loeffler, boss of the muni
cipal courses, said he hoped to put
the Fort Du Pont nine in play
by May 30 of 1948. After the CCC
cleared several holes before the
war, the project was discontinued.
When completed, Loeffler said plans
cpll for a new clubhouse between
Anacostia and Fort Du Pont and
the present Anacostia club will be
used as a fleldhouse for other
sports.
Loeffler said the courses should j
be in the best shape ever as the|
Government will put all but $100
yearly back into improvements and
upkeep.
Manager T. Gibraski at East Po
tomac reported that business to date
has surpassed any early spring play
since he has been connected with
the public links. At Rock Creek,
Manager Harry Graham clocked a
weekday crowd of 680 on Easter
Monday, which was just a few short
of the weekday record. The driv
ing range at East Potomac opened
last week end and will have lights
this week.
with rock Creek crowded almost
every day, tournament golf this sea
son will be confined to East Potomac
and Apacostia, where A1 Treder is
the new manager. Gibraski will
handle the arrangements for the
city municipal championship, the
National public links qualifying and
other events.
The professional setup remains
unchanged at East Potomac and
Rock Creek with Cliff Spencer and
A1 Price, respectively, as heads of
the pro shop. Treder is available for
lessons at Anacostia on Thursdays
and in the mornings.
The Anacostia members again are "
the first to present an organization
this year with Everett Tanner, pres
ident; Lt. R. P. Spearman, vice
president; Carl Steele, treasurer and
W. W. Seay, secretary.
Anacostia has arranged home and
home team match series with Glen
wood of Richmond and Ocean View
at Norfolk. In addition Anacostia
will meet East Potomac for the i
Davis trophy, with Rock Creek to
be included in the series if the up
towd golfers decide to enter a teem.
