MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1942. PAGE SEVEN FINAL MASTERS' !M! SI TO START TODAY By Gayle Talbot Augusta, Ga., April 9. (JP) Over one of the world's loveliest golf courses, the royal family of the game starts playing at 10:30 p. m. (Pacific war time) today in -the 72-hole masters' tourna ment, with the snarl of military motors overhead to remind them that this probably is the last sen timental stop at Bobby Jones' course until after the war. Even though they have been playing against each other all winter most of them from the west coast across the country, the boys seemed not to realize that the big bust-up was at hand Lv until they landed here. Now they do, and it has given them an added incentive to win the most coveted of the titles, ex cepting only the open. It was a tense, tightly-wound field of 42 that teed off today. The masters', though it was what might be called a "manu factured" tournament to begin with, has in the last eight years taken a remarkable hold on the players. One and all, they look forward each year to receiving one of the big embossed invita tions, and when none shows up they are crestfallen. Partly, no doubt, it is because they are playing in the same field with Bobby Jones. It seems almost unbelievable, some times, that such mechanically perfect players as the two Tex ans, Ben Hogan and Byron Nel son, for instance, should stand' in such honest awe of Jones. But they do, and to their credit. Perhaps this gives another angle on the appeal of the masters. The pairings are made with an eye for the dramatic. They do not pull names out of a hat. At 2 o'clock today Jones goes down the first wide fair way with Craig Wood, the de- 01 ALONE STANDS OUT mm Thourh locked to nUrt tic odd. Little Amrnca blighted and heated jmt like New York.

We stick to the genuine old-faduoned method that takes more time, more care the "slow" way we started 100 years ago. We still buy premium grains. Use more of them to the gallon.

April 9 The once mighty Babe Ruth, stricken critically ill yesterday, is im proving slowly, but still not out of danger. Ruth's nurse made that report twice during the nigh' as the former home run king of major league baseball lay wrapped in a heavy jacket because of re curring chills. Alternately, his temperature soared. Babe. 48, has had a strenuous picture-making, war bond-Sfll-ing, military camp-ent?rtain'ng two months here. Previously, he dieted nway 40 pounds to get in trim for the picture, about his late New York Yankee team mate, Lou Gehrig. J ..

BRED IH SOUTHERN OREGON FOR FINEST SOUTHERN OREGON CROPS- A PRODUCT OF VALLEY'S END RANCH GOLD HILL, OREGON BEN DAY, MANAGER BRIGHT PLEASED Berkeley, Calif., April 9 (P) Carroll "Ky" Ebright, Univer sity of California's veteran row ing coach, thinks the crew he is taking to Seattle next week is better than the smooth-operating outfit which pushed Wash ington to a course record on the Oakland estuary last year. "I think this crew is some what stronger than last year's varsity, with ..four varsity men remaining and the other seats strengthened by the Jayvee boys and the frosh champs of last year," he said. Practice has been highly satis factory, he added, with final time trials slated for tonight. GRAPPLE BRAZIL Pedro Brazil will try for his fifth grappling victory in the armory Monday night when he clashes with Pete Belcastro in the main event of Promoter Mack Lillard's weekly program. Billy Marcus and Jim Casey will meet in the six-round cen ter attraction and Tug Carlson will take on Bob Kruse in the four-round curtain-raiser. - BOWLING News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Continued Prom Pas Orw) government. Some of the allied capitals, particularly London, have been letting out matters of strictly American war busi ness, which we considered se cret. They wil do so no more. THESE are the only realistic nhfprtinn hpnrH htri nnri if any government officials are planning stricter censorship, their plans lack the virtue of necessity. Certain politically inclined officials, worrying about their own prestige or the coming elections, have been complain ing about criticism in the press. Much has been made of an off-ihe-record speech by one . gov ernment publicist asking how 'ong the administration will tolerate what he called 'sub versive criticism." There have been rumors that the Mac Leish office of farts and fieurptt would be combined with fh Mllftt riffle nf ,nvJ ernment reports, to the elevation of Mr. Mellett and the decline of Mr. Mac Leish. There have ben rumors that an overall government censor ship would be established to screw down the lid on news, and even a conversational suggestion that every published news story be submitted to censors before publication. The rumors are not imagina tive speculations of persons out side the government, but tney may be the result of inter-office competition in the government, and therefore are not necessarily a forerunner of action. The fact is, however, that as far as ' disclosure of military secrets is concerned, more cen sorship is not justified. "THE Jap radio Is Just as bad as Rome and Berlin. The Jap broadcasters have sunk the Lexington three or four times by radio but not any other way. They "captured" Port Moresby and Akyab last week, and -"'re duced Corregidor half a dozen times.. The records of all the axis stations clearly demonstrate they are not entitled to any consider ation. Their ob Is not to dispense truth, but to go to any lengths necessary to achieve victory over us. CHREWD judges of sentiment within congress suggest a majority would vote to increase the base-pay week (before over time) from 40 to 48 hours. How ever, even some of the strongest critics of labor there are not anxious for action. Certainly congress is doubtful. j But this and related economic issues of prices and wages now seem only to be in a state of j preliminary fermentation. The Pepper plan to freeze everything j except the capitol dome must i be considered in the light of his established position as front runner and try-out advance agent for the administration. Raising the base pay In the army has also helped to quiet some critics of the 40-hour week, and delayed action. The latest tendency, both in the executive and congressional branch, thus seems inclined to wait until the labor shortnge develops in the months ahead, or economic necessity arises for drastic economic steps. r . ,,i v.,-l , i , l I .1 s m i t SOLDIER SLUCCE R-Some of his buddies hsnr ever the fence to talk with Hank Greenberg, former Detroit Titer's sluts er who's now a serseant In the air corps at Tampa, Fla., dur ing a tame between Camp HacDUl Fliers vs. Tampa U.
