Monarchs in Duel Tonight Generals Tip Jefferson By 544o-43 Edge BY JOHN DE LA VEGA Washington High's unbeaten Generals won the annual City Basketball Championship at Huntington Park High last night, when they outpointed Jefferson's Democrats, 54 to 43, in the playoff finals. In the play-off for third place, San Pedro triumphed by a 39 to 37 measure over Polytechnic. Rugged and Ragged San Francisco's Shamrocks. Golfing at Long Beach, or herd's mud in your eye: For one of the few times in a local tournament, Ben Hogan asked his caddie's advice on a few shots at Lakewood.

After alL Ben had- never played the course before teeing off Friday, so it would seem logical that he might get some hints as to distances to greens, and the break of a putt. But never did he ask his bag-packer for his suggestion as to a slope on the carpet, and only a few skippered by a long-time veteran of hockey war Les Cunningham come to the Pan-Pacific tonight for a 'puck battle with the Los Angeles Cunningham, who campaigned for many years with Cleveland of the American Hockey League and still holds some scoring hoi in that circuit, was forced to don uni ftimes did he check on the dis form himself during the past week due to injuries to members of his 'XV squad.He had been trying to earn a retired status until the casualty list forced his return to action. heading 67, on Friday he didn't even wait around longf enough, for photographers to get his picture. Billy Train, the onetime kid star at Montebello is now head pro at Rancho Santa Fe, the fine course near Del Mar Lane (Shotgun) Britton aced Lakeside's 6th (90 yards) during the week, then went out the next day with Porky Oliver and Dick Barron, pro and owner, respectively of the Inglewood course in Seattle. "This is the Jiole where I had an ace yesterday," says Britton to Oliver.

"So," replies Oliver and flips a wedge 6hot in for an ace of his own Charles (Chick) Evans visited San Gabriel during the week, breezing around in 71. San Gabriel regulars, Prexy George Johnson, Win Fuller, Mer-win Hawley and Vic Forsythe had 81, 75, 79 and 83 respectively Forest Lawn took the lead in the YMCA Commercial League following the second round at Montebello by blanking Gasco Blue-Flames, 12-0.

Noe connected for seven field goals, and also had three gift shots for a total of 17 points. The first quarter saw Washington go ahead, 21-14 but the flashy Democrats wouldn't let up in their racehorse tactics and pulled up to 22-18 midway in the second.

Here, Noe hit with a beautiful hook shot and two tip-ins to enable the Generals to breathe again. key players were sidelined.

Line-ups: Hogan never needs or asks help at Riviera. His bag-toter at Long Beach is Charles Pollock, who has packed Hogan's clubs in four straight tournaments in California, Glendale Open, Los Angeles Open and Bing Crosby pro-amateur before this week end. His Aim Improving Sam Snead is fully conscious of the gallery support he has, the "sink-this-one-Sam" feeling every time he lines up a putt. So when he recovered nicely from a too-long second shot at the 18th Friday he had a 5-footer for a 70 score. And when the ball trickled into the cup the crowd and Snead let out a whoop, Sam grabbed the ball and hurled it high into the air.

So what happens? The ball comas back down on the green and drops into the cup. They really let out a whoop then. Honesty at Any Price These topflight golfers play it mighty straight. As Fred Haas was addressing the ball Defore- chipping to the 10th green he suddenly straightened up, told his playing companions he was calling a stroke on himself, and went ahead to take a bogey 5 on the hole. No one else saw the ball move, but Haas detected the turn of the ball and called the stroke.

Haas finished with 69, and that stroke might be important in the final money rundown. The tall Louisianan was nation-! al intercollegiate champ from LSU in 1937. He was a skinny beanpole then.
