PAGB 2 TmUaj. 30. 1958
AU STIN. Tex.- Through the
summer rampeigns “eronomy in
government" were words that
rustled about as harmlcosiy ax
an evening breeze
But with the approach of win
ter and down to the lick do* bud
get making time, the same words
have the cutting edge of a blue
norther.
Gov. Price Daniel stuck a pin
in any last rosy hopes that
"things might not be too bad "
He sent back the money requests
made by heads of state depart
ments for saying they
were "wholly unrealistic.”
Governor Daniel had been the
last major hold-out against pre
dictions of a major money crisis.
Other state officials had been
crying doom and foreseeing a
shortage of up to ) 140,0U),0tX)
for months.
Governor Daniel took note of
these predictions in asking de
part ment heads to re-examine
their budgets, eliminating any
non essential items. A deadline
of Get. 8 was set f<>r the new
requests
As originally submitted, the
requests would raquire a $272,-
000,000 increase in spending.
"I think and hope this decline
in state revenuesjis a temporary
condition," said the governor,
“but a realistic approach. . .re
quires that ltbMt-61 requests
should not exceed the lOM* F*9
level unless absolutely essential.”
Deficit Soon
A further glum note was the
state comptroller's forecast that
the general revenue fund would
run dry in oAober.
And it probably won’t be a
temporary thing, according to
Comptroller Robert S. Calvert.
Almost every’ spring the state
has a seasonal shortage just be
5>re the April deadline for fran
chise tax paying.
Calvert said this deficit may
Continue until September, 1959,
and bring a return of some of
the squeeze* of the 1930’s. Dur
ing those years state employees
had to pay a discount of from
one to five per cent to cash their
pay checks since the banks that
cashed them had to hold them
for some time waiting for the
•tale to get the money to make
them good.
Calvert said the general rev
enue fund began the new state
fiscal year in September with a
$1.1,000,000. This is not a very
big kitty for the government's
billion-dollar-a year operation.
Hard, Decision
Kdumtion Commissioner J W
Kdgar is the mgn in the middle
an the controversy over accept
ing federal aid (W Texas schools.
Dr. Kdgar h;js until the end
of this week to decide whether to
recommend to the State Hoard
of Kducation that Texas partici
pate in a new federal aid plan.
This program, prompted by na
tional defense concerns, is de.
signed to help step up training
of mathematicians, scientists and
teachers.
Edgar’s decision must be made
in the light of the recent recom
mendation by the Hale Aibe'i
Committea, a grhup of mfluennal
citizens and laWmakers, that the
stale slip taking some federal
funds it is already getting—for
school lunches and vocational
training.

'Fish ’ Martin An Aggie
Since His Diaper Days
John Martin, 18-year-old Sgn
Antonio freshman in Squadren
2, is one "fish’' who didn’t have
much choice as to w hat college to
attend—he is a descendant of a
long liee of Aggies, his dad, "28,
three uncles, one great uncle, and
a grandfather "found" this “gar
den spot” on the Brazos before
him.
He says that he remembers
that even his diapers had "My
Dad Was a Texas Aggie” on
them. Oh well. . . .
A graduate of Alamo Heights
High School in San Antonio, John
ran the 8841 on the track team,
and was vice president of the
school’s skin diving club. And
he is a real honest - to-goodness
skin diver.
John has been chasing fish
around ’neath the deep blue sea
for about four years. H* usee
direction of Gregor Millar, con-
belt, and. natch, a spear gun.
“It takes lots of guts at first,"
John remembers. “You have tho
feelirifc of being completely alone,
and of being in a completely dif
ferent environment from any you
have ever known.”
Catching an 18 pound Jewfiah
with a rod and reel ia excite
ment enough, but John “caught”
one with hie spear gun and fought
with Lhie monster for about 40
'Minute*—underwater. He has
hunted in Lake Austin, at San I
Marcos and at Port Aranaas in {
the Gulf. He has been down to
depths of 80 feet in his shin div
ing exploits—which is just about
60 feet too deep for me.
John ie a bueiaos
tion major and plans to go iata
business with his father eventu
ally. Hie dad ia e general con
tractor in Sao Antonio. Ho aaye
he wants to fly with the Air
Forpe for about 5" first, though.

Must jazz always be impixivised
or can it be written, as classical
music is written?
This question will be the sub
ject of an internating experiment
at the Monterey tCaljf ) Jazz
Festival this weekend, when a
68 piece symphony orchestra will
play several jazz compositions.
Composed of members of the
San Francisco Symphony and
Monterey County Symphony, aug
meiited by jazz muainans chosen
from among the many name jazz
stars appearing at the festival,
this orchestra will be under the
rection of Gregor Millar, con
ductor of the San Francisco Sym
phony.
One of the foremost advocates
of unimprovised jazz is Howard
Biuberk (brother of Dave, whose
