Sarazen Favors Detroit for

Post-War Ryder Cup Battle

DETROIT, Aug. 9 (U. P.).—Gene Sarazen, stocky little member of Capt. Craig Wood's Ryder Cup golf team—winners in three of four charity matches against Walter Hagen's Challengers—today advocated

that this city be chosen as the site of the first. post-war cup competition.

This year’s ‘fourth set of matches provided the Red Cross with about

$40,000 as ‘the Ryder cup squad won over the Hagen team, 8% to 31%,

at Plum Hollow course yesterday. Sarazen’s defeat by Lawson Little provided the losers with half of their. victory total. . . -

Tribe Box Scores

Sarazen looked ‘past the current competition, however, ' to suggest that Detroit be given the first opportunity to stage these traditionhallowed matches because of the “great production job it is doing.” “I believe the first competition

“Detroit has done such a marvelous job of keeping this competition alive and, further-

terial than. any other city in the world.

“After the war, we should ask the British to come here for the first Ryder matches : and, in

Most doubts that inexperienced women have about their ability to

|do a war Job satisfactorily are

erased after a few weeks’ work, according to Irwin P. Egan, personnel director of the Real Silk Hosiery Mills here. Mr. Egan said many women who haven't worked in business before or haven't worked since they were married, are employed at the war plant on N. Noble st, “arg doing excellent work.” Many who have not worked in industry until the war had the notion that “factories” were unpleasant places to work. But, Mr. Egan said, after Pearl Harbor their husbands and sons were called into the servjces so they wanted not only to

[augment their income but wanted

to help in some direct way their husbands and sons. “One of the first questions I am asked is: ‘Am I too old?’ ” Mr. Egan said. “I usually reply that we have quite a few women workers who

are in their fifties. And then I am asked if the work is hard. ‘Can you sew a -straight seam?’ F ask. To women who have done sewing for themselves and their families for years, sewing a straight seam is elementary. Of course they. can. And it isn’t difficult for them to learn how to operate one of our power sewing machines, if they can do that.” Mr. Egan said the company endeavors to fit the working hours into the workers’ own schedule. Real Silk workers, by working only five days a week, have two days each week for relaxation, household duties, church and community affairs, One advantage appreciated by workers is the proximity of the Real Silk piant at Massachusetts ave, and N, Noble st. to transportation services. It is close to the downtown area and is served by the 10th st. trolley, Michigan st. streetcar, College ave. streetcar, West Indianapolis and West Michigan cars and
