needed to combat the spread of
Communism.

Cardinal Camp
Supervised By
Veteran Scout
ST. LOUIS— (Spl.) — Veteran
Cardinal Scout Fred Hawn will su
pervise the tryout sessions at Buf
falo Stadium in Houston on Mon
day and Tuesday, August 6 and 7,
it was announced today. He will
be assisted by Scout Dick Kerr.
“Many talented players from
the State of Texas are starring in
our farm system today and at
some time in the future may be
stars with the Cardinals in St.
Louis,” William Walsinghan, Jr.,
Cardinal vice-president, related.
“Among the many Texans help
ing man Cardinal teams are In
fielder Danny Lynch from Dallas,
Pitcher Jimmy Michalec of Shiner,
Infielder Jim Miller from Joshua,
Outfielder Bobby Powledge of
Houston and Outfielder Russ Rac
from Galveston.
“Danny Lynch has already pro
gressed to the AAA level in the
Red Bird farm system and is with
our Columbus, O., club in the
American Association,” Walsing-
ham said.
“Russ Rac and Bobby Powledge
are both playing Class A baseball
for us and doing quite well. Pow
ledge is at Columbus, Ga., in the
Sally League and is hitting .279.
Rac is a star with our Omaha,
Nebr., club in the Western League
and is the team’s second leading
hitter with a .311 average. Russ
is also leading the equad in RBI’s
with 66 and is the club’s leading
home run hitter with 17 and in
doubles with the same number.
Michalec is also with Omaha.
“You can be sure that everyone
in the Cardinal organization is
pulling for these youngsters to
come through to the big leagues,”
the Red Bird official stated. “The
Cardinals give their players all
the possible advantages and oppoi 1 -
tunities possible.” Workouts in
Houston are slated for 10 a.m. both
days.
for operation of the- State,- Com
merce and Justice Departments in
the current fiscal year.
On the House’s insistence, the
bill left out an earlier Senate-ap
proved provision for $12.5 Million
in federal aid to the nation’s air
ports.
3). Senate passage, by voice vote
of a one-year extension of the Re
ciprocal Trade Agreements Act.
The Act calls for creation of a
17-member special commission to
study the whole range of U.S. trade
policies and submit a report by
next March 3.
Written into the bill is author
ity for the President to clamp quo
tas or higher import duties on
fai-m products by executive order—
without waiting for Tariff Commis
sion recommendations — when he
considers U. S. farmers are en-
dangei'ed by foreign imports.
Earlier in the day, Senate GOP
leaders announced that the White
House had yielded on its 11th hour
demand for a jump in the federal
debt limit.
Senate Majority Leader William
F. Knowland, (R-Calif.) said the
President and his top fiscal aides
agreed at a White House break
fast conference to wait until next
year, if possible, for action on the
debt issue.
In 1953 legislative session, the
lawmakers completed action on a
whopping $53.5 Billion in new
funds to operate the federal gov
ernment and carry on the defense
buildup here and abroad.
The total was $12.7 Billion less
than Former President Truman
recommended in his farewell bud
get last January and $3.5 Billion
less than Mr. Eisenhower requested
in his revised budget.
By comparison with some of Mr.
Truman’s clashes with Congress,
the lawmakers gave Mr. Eisenhow
er a fair amount of cooperation on
major issues—notably on defense
and foreign aid—but showed no in
clination to rubber-stamp every
White House proposal.
