Sports Roundup
By HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
NEW YORK, March 30—(AP)—
If you look over one of those farm
club training camps—Dodgertown,
for instance — you might think
there’s an endless supply of base
ball material . . . But a correspon
dent who knows how tough things
can be down in Class “D” baseball
sends this complaint: “It seems to
me some scouts send in any boy
they can sign to a contract. For
instance, one club in our league
had about 70 players during the
last season. You can’'t win ball
games unless your team jells. The
point is they sent in one young
player after another and the one
they sent in usually was inferior
to the boy he replaced. Where they
dug ’em up is a mystery, but the
greater mystery is why they’d sign
’em.” . .. Just to show there’s an
other side to the same problem, a
Tax Measure Praised,
Flayed In Radio Forum
ATLANTA, March 30.—(AP)—A new tax plan for expanded state
services was both praised and belittled last night as six speakers de
bated the April 5 referendum over Radio Station WCON.
The spirited discussion was broadcast over a statewide hookup.
Georgians will vote Tuesday on whether they want to pay $46,000,-
000 in additional taxes to finance expanded education, health, wel-
fare and other state services.
‘Three speakers argued for ap
proval of the tax plan and three
opposed it. Editor Ralph McGill
of the Atlanta Constitution acted
as moderator.
Proponents described the refer
endum as a crisis for schools; op
ponents declared it was a crisis for
the taxpayers.
“Those opposing the financing of
new services place a higher value
on their pennies than on their
children,” said the plan’s support
ers.
The opposition group replied
that Georgians cannot afford a 43
per cent tax increase now with a
recession already underway.
baseball scout notes: *Had to hurry
back from Florida to start trail
ing the colleges. You know col
lege schedules are short and we
have to move fast in the spring.”
. . . Maybe it’s something wrong
with the scouting system, not the
scouts.
BETTER LATE THAN"
NEVER
On the day that Joe Bedenk
succeeded Bob Higgins as Penn
State Football Coach, Assistant
Alumni Secretary Ross Lehman
was driving from State College,
Pa., to Elmira, N. Y., in a car
without a radio . . . After making
‘his usual talk to the alumni, Leh
man was asked what the coaching
change would mean to Penn State
football . . . Ross, who had heard
a lot of rumors and denials, in
sisted it was just “newspaper talk”
and confidently predicted the Hig
would be'on the job to start spring
practice . . . He had a heck of a
time explaining when the audience
assured him the change actually
had taken place . . . And Pooch
Harrell, Indiana Athletic Direc
tor, took great pains to get his en
tire football coaching staff invited
to* the Indiana High School
Coaches Association meeting . . .
When Pooch got the microphone,
he introduced all the new assis
tants apd sat down . . . Then Clyde
B. Smith took over, saying: “I’d
like to introduce the new head
coach; You're looking at him.”

Voicing their views on the con
troversial issue were:
For the proposal-—Roy Harris,
former speaker of the House; H.
L. Wingate, president of the Geor
gia Farm Bureau, and Pope Brock,
former chairman of the Board of
Regents.
Against—Kenneth Douty, state
director of the Textile Workers
Union of America (CIO); Martin
Johnson, president of the Georgia
Automobile Dealers’ Association,
and James Gray, editor and pub
lisher of the Albany Herald.
Wingate predicted farmers
would support. the proposal *“be
cause the rural communities will
get $3 worth of services for each
new tax dollar they spend.”
Farm Development
“A ‘yes’ vote,” he asserted, “will
mean the agricultural development
of this farming state :
Johnson asserted the real issue
is whether Georgians “are willing
and able to pay an additional 42
per cent in taxes.”
School, highway, health and
welfare budgets already have
jumped 300 per cent since 1942, he
said, adding:
“If the referendum fails, it
doesn’t mean the schools will close
or highways and institutions for
the aged and helpless will be neg
lected. On the contrary, they will
continue to progress just as they
have progressed in the last de
cade—which has been at a very
rapid rate.” :
Brock declared the referendum
is a matter of “whetner we are so
poor in %pirit and so wanting in
ambition that we are unwilling to
pay what must be paid if our boys
and girls are to be given an equal
opportunity in life.”
No Substitute .
Opponents, he said, have offered
no substitute plan—nothing to get
“our people out of the mud or to
provide them with adequate hos
pitals.”
Gray attacked the referendum as
unfair, declaring:
“First, there is no ‘candor or
frankness in its presentation; sec
ond, the people are asked to vote.

Honored .
On Birthday
Little Miss Denise Grimes was
five years old Tuesday and her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Denny
Grimes, invited thirty-five of her
friends to their home on Clover
hurst to celebrate the gay occa
sion.
The young hostess wore a dain
ty lace trimmed orchid organdie
dress and was the center of the
admiring group of guests as she
received their congratulations and
many pretty gifts.
They played on the lawn, had
fun hunting Easter eggs, and
swinging in the several new
swings given Denise as birthday
gifts. Other games and playthings
afforded pleasure. A large beau
tifully decorated cake graced the
center of the flower wreathed ta
ble, the favors and accessories
featuring shelves of pink.
The party was one of the love
liest and most deligntful given for
the young set this season.
being obscured by sentimental and
unreasoning propaganda; and
fourth, the Legislature is clearly
dodging its duty”
The Albany editor then asked
whether tax-burdened Georgia can
bear additional levies and remain
economically sound.
Harris said everyone favors the
program “provided they tax the
other fellow.” He said he trusts
the legislature to ‘“do what is
right.”
“We will never have the educa
tion system we want, never be
able to care for our old people,
never be able to relieve the ‘snake
pit’ conditions at Milledgeville,
never be able to have a road sys
tem-—unless Georgians are willing
to pay the bill,” he added.
Douty said the referendum boils
down to a vote on whether to en
act a sales tax. Because of this,
he added, Georgia labor groups
are joined solidly against the pro
posal.
“It’s not that we in the labor
movement don’t feel the need for
expanded services,” the labor lead
er said. “We are on record for the
Minimum Foundation Program.
But we are agalnust a sales tax
as means of financing it.” :
“A sales tax,” Douty asserted,
“places the burden on those least
able to pay.”
It is said there are more than
150 different kinds of cherry pie.
