We thought it a foolish move on the part of Larkin's handlers to take a fellow like Joyce at this time because Willie had been displaying top fighting form in all of his recent fights.

Duck Season Nov 2 to Jan. By H.LBETTEN Gen. H. H. Arnold! There's a jiame to keep in mind.

Iff a name he Nazis have good cause to re- nember and one the Nip imps will lever forget, for General Arnold, lead of the United States Air forces, is all set to bfast the arrogant monkey men. off their sectionj the earth by way of America's air 'night. But back in the days when Central Arnold was Major Arnold and fVorld War I was behind him, hunt-jig and fishing were in his mind, i just as these sports have been in he minds of virtually all of our b'eat military leaders) and he often vrote on these subjects. i Aside from a passion for field ports the general has been a power-ul advocate of skeet ehooting as best practice for aerial gunners, i le frequently shoots a few rounds' limself when time and opportunity ffers. It's- certain that he and the Hulk of the big shots of the Army, Vavy, Air Corps and Marines will ro in strong for trap ehooting as a -ecreation when the war ends.

This brings to mind that there xists an asserted surplus or from .0,000,0000 to 100,000,000 skeet shells ibove all possible military needs. If eleased for civilian use these or ven part thereof would serve ad- nirablv in a recreational connec ion. Most of the skeet fields are ocated adjacent to large centers of jopulation and would not involve ransportation problems. Maybe Jack Landau, the well cnowti San TaDCisco sportsman vho served in the same air corps vith General Arnold in World War could state the case to him and nossiblv secure consideration for he skeet shooters. Harry Borba, The Examiner's ver- atile sports scribe, is olf lor his an nual vacation and inscribes exult- nglv.

days of Tuesday, August 21, through Sunday, August 26. ONCE again, itnvill.be open to ALL and FREE! All that is necessary is Immediately to fill out the entry blank to be found in these pages, mail it to the Hole In One Editor, San Francisco Examiner, appear at the eighth tee at your appointed time, and take your five shots at the eighth green, 184 yards away. Even the golf clubs and golf balls will be furnished for your use-or you can use your own, whichever you prefer. And you needn make a Hole In One to win a prize: Last year, $2,900 worth of prizes were given away, to 121 persons who had shots within eight feet, five inches of the holer There will be hourly prizes, daily prizes, special swords- for Army, Navy, Marine and Coast Guard con tenders, as well as for ladies and all golfers over 50 years of age. There will be prizes galore for ALL to shoot for.

And, who knows, perhaps it will be you who gets a Hole In One. It can be done, you know. In the twelve past years of this tourna ment, eleven Holes In Une have been achieved. During those twelve years, a total of 29,947 persons have taken five shots at the green, a total of.149,735 shots. Eleven of these shots rolled into the cup.

And that appears to make the odds AGAINST a Hole in One on any one shot appear to be AGAINST any single person making an ace on any one of five shots, the odds are considerably shorter, however, Maybe you are the lucky one. Clip out, fill out and mail in the entry blank and see. Do it right NOW, as the starting times will go to the early birds. And, should you care to give a prize for this great event, call the HOLE IN ONE editor, SUtter 2424, and you as the donor and your prize will be given the publicity it deserves. BUT do it NOW!

Nelson in lOthStraight TORONTO, Aug. 4. Byrffn Nel son, Toledo's mechanical marvel of the links, fired a two-under-par 68 in the final round today to win the $10,000 Canadian Open Golf cham pionship with a seventy-two hole score of .280. The former Texan finished four strokes in front of Herman Barron, the White Plains, N. veteran, who shot his last eighteen holes in 67 lowest round of the tourna mentand wound up with 284.

It was Nelson's second sub-par round of the three-day event and enabled him to chalk up his tenth straight victory in tournament play. The title was worth $2,000 first money. Golf's number one man earned $45,200 in war bonds while winning twelve of eighteen tournaments in the United States this year. Ed Furgol, the former amateur from Utica, N. who tied Nelson at the 54-hole mark by blazing a 69 for 212, went three over on the payoff 18 with a 73 and took third money at 285.

The talented Toledo par-buster, who averaged 67.5 for each round in capturing his nine previous crowns, found the lengtnenea ana toughened Thornhill course difficult to crack. The Canadian officials, who didn't wit their championship layout, blasted apart, lengthened the first seven holes, reduced par from 71 to 70 and made the course tricky. Today, the officials loosened up and shortened the par three fifth from 235 yards to 185 and the par three seventh from 215 yards to 155 for the final 36 holes. Nelson, who poured it on in the opening round with a 68 and then fell off with a 72, carded another 72 in his first round today and then, with the pressure, cracked out another 68 that left the field far be hind.
