AP Newslectures Weiter pila dbserves the ivetsary which is now overshadowed by World Wor IL In the minds of many Ameri- cans, World War I Armistice Day. is dwarfed by the more vivid recollections, heavier casualties and greater significance of the recent conflict. Some are wonder- ing. whether Armistice Day will be shoved into the background by V-E and V-J days. ere Leaders of veterans’ organiza- tions don’t think so. They believe that Nov. 11 has become so strongly established as a nation- wide day of commemoration that it will continue indefinitely to be an important date on the Ameri- ean calendar. Louis E. Starr, commander-in- chief of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, says that “because .of the efforts of the nation to win a last- ing peace, Armistice Day has tak- en on an added importance.” lative director of the Ametican Legion, says: “Succeeding years have solidified the historical sig- nificance of Nov. 11, 1918. Aboli- tian of Artnistice Day ceremonies within-the next 10, 20 or 50 years. is inconceivable.” Col. Taylor points out that “with less than one company. of veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic still living, Memorial Day, 1946, attracted greater inter- est and reverence than ever he- fore from the American people.” “There are more than 342 mmil- lion World War I veterans, he said. ilies and a multitude of their countrymen, through participa- tion in Armistice Day, for 28 | years, have made Nov. ‘ll a great and sacred date.” Starr says: “This Armistice Day we all owe a bow to the 400,000 disabled veterans of World War I. victory in 1918, we say that, tpi day remains alive in the hearts of real Americans.” : Some 3,776,000-of the 4,764,000 men who served in World War I are living. Their average age is 53. Statisticians of the Veterans Administration estimate that 25 years hence — in 1971 — about 1,257,000 of these veterans still will be living. To them and their families, Nov. 11 will be a mem- orable date. Armistice Day is a legal holiday ritories and possessions. V-E and ly established as. holidays. More- of the end of a war Col.

The North Carolina events an- ually draw top-noteh professional and amateur golfers from all over the-country. Over the long, well-trapped No, 2 championship Pinehurst layout, Lopez carded scores of 80-72—152, one stroke more than allowed for qualification. ' In the Southern Pines event, which was only a one-day 18-hole affair, the Key Wester turned in a creditable 76, four over par, and finished in 20th place, five spots out of the money. Lopez will take in both the Or- Eugene Howowitz 94 21 73} lando and Miami Opens, the for- mer starting on November 28 {amd the latter December 5. Lo- pez said today that it was very cold in Pinenurst and that the course there was the toughest he had ever played, including -the Canterbury course, Cleveland, O., where he competed in the Na- | tional Open. Ben Hogan, with a 282, won the Pinehurst Open and Sam Snead, with a 63, took the Southern Pines tourney.

The Unknown Soldier was laid to rest on Nov. 11, 1921,! just 25 years ago yesterday. Mil-| lions af Americans have visited \'the tomb. An unknown service man—sol- diier, sailor, Marine or Coast- jguardsman—of World. War II will be laid to rest beside the I. Congress passed a bill last June providing for the return of the unknown service man and for ceremonies paying him the high- est honors. Details as to how he will be chosen are to be worked out by the war department. He will be selected fr6m 8,800 j unidentified bodies from battle fields around the world. The Unknown Soldier of World War I was selected from among four soldiers who died in the battles of the Aisne-Marne, Meuse-Argonne, Somme and St. Mihiel. The four soldiers were hotel at Chalons, France. ; “Sgt. Edward F. Younger of Chicago was chosen because of | his outstanding service to desig- | nate which of the four would be brought to Washington for en- tombment. While a.
