Armed Forces May Want More Than 25 Billion Dollars

WASHINGTON, (P-Rep. Vim son O.-Ga0 said Saturday he "would not be surprised" if the armed forces ask more money in the next 12 months, on top of the $25, ,OO0,0OO, ,000 request already on file with Congress.
 Vinson, chairman of the House armed services committee, made clear that after hearing the mobil- ization plans of the three military services he feels they are not building fast enough.
 In his opinion, he said, their plans have certain elements of conservatism"
 And he described as merely "the first increment" in Americas rearmament program the present plan to have 2,$89, ,00O men in uni form by June 30, 1851. There are now about 1,500,00 in service.

Truman Doesn't Want "All-Out'' Mobilization
(Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) mmed largely from elder states man Bernard Baruch's testimony last week that immediate "ceil- ings on everything are impera- tive.
 Baruch put in another plug for his viewpoint Friday in a tele- phone conversation with Chair man Maybank D.-S. e. of the banking committee. At the very least, Maybank quoted him as say ing, wage-price controls and ra- tiQning should be written into law on standby basis. That would give MT. Truman power to invoke the controls, but only when he felt they were necessary.
 While the President told his news conference Thursday that broad consumer controls are not yet needed, one Capitol official who usually is in touch with the White House told reporter the President could be glad to get the added controls on a standby basis.

Pep Scores Z knockdowns
In 0utpointing Andrews
By the Assoeiated Press

BOSTON, Feb. 7.-Willie Pep,
featherweight champion from
Hartford, Conn.,, scored a knock
down with each hand while out
pointing Roy Andrews of Lowell,
in their 1o-round non-title boxing
bout last night at the Boston Gar
den.
The stylish Hartford veteran,
who coasted during most of the
second half of the battling, first
dropped Andrews for nine-count
with a straight left to the face
early in the second session.
And just as that round closed,
Pep followed two lefts and a
right with bone-crushing right
uppercut that toppled sAndrews
for count of nine as the bell
sounded.
Frequently thereafter Andrews
managed to land solid lefts and
rights to the body as Pep danced
in on him and several times Roy
succeeded in scoring an odd right
and left to the head.
From the fifth Oh, Pep staged
several two-f1sted punching fur
ries and opened a cut over An
dreWS' left eye in the ninth round.

Tdrzdn WeissmuIIer Distances
IAH Other Swimmers in Poll
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-You can
search through the book of mod
ern swimming records without
finding the name of Johnny
WeiSsmuller. Yet 20 years ago
they might well have printed the
same book with ditto marks under
Johnny's name. 4.
So completely did the big Chi
cagoan dominate the aquatic sport
in the 1920s that today the Ma
tion's sports writer's and broad
casters voted him. by an over
whelming margin. the outstand-
ing swimmer of the half century.
Weissmuller gathered 1872 votes
in this section of the Associated
Press half-century poll. All the
other swimmers and divers of the
1900-1949 era combined received
only 101.
When he retired in 1929, Johnny
held every world free-style swim
ming record from 100 yards to a
half-mile. All have been eclipsed
since WeiSsmuller became a movie
actor, but no swimmer ever has
come close to the clean sweep that
Johnny scored.
Hironoshu Furuhashi, the jap
anese speedster whose new style
amazed observers at the national
outdoor championships last sum-
mer, topped the rest with 20
points.
Furuhashi. in his first appear
ance in the United States, smashed
the world records for 400, 800 and
/ 800 meters and he cut 29.8 Sec
onds from the old 1,500-meter
standard.
Third place went to Adolph
Kiefer, backstroke king of the
1930s, with II votes. Duke Kahan-
amoku, predecessor of Weissmuller
as sprint champion. received 10.
Others receiving votes were Ger
trude Ederle, the American girl
who swan the English Channel, 8;
Bill Smith, Hawaii, and Ann Cur
tbs, z each: Alan Ford and Helene
Madison, each; Esther Williams
and Eleanor Holms, S each. Two
votes each went to Jack Medica.
Buster Crabbe, Joe Verdeur and
Charles Daniels, all of the United
States. and Ragnhild Hveger of
Denmark. There was one vote each
for Katherine Rawls, Gloria CAL
len, Wally Ris, George Smith, Keo
Nakama and K. Katamura.
The memory of WeisSmuller's
swimming feats may have endured
because of his later fame as a
movie actor in the role of Tarzan.
But in this connection it may be
noted that Miss Williams and Miss
Holm, both noted for beauty as
well as ability. also became screen
figures but attracted only five
votes apiece.

Welterweight Marshall Clayton

OF confidence. Right away he

The former All-Army champ,
winner of eight of his nine pro
bouts Zone was a draw says that
as far as he is concerned it can
be the champ next. His handlers
are a bit cautious. While they
feel certain that some day Clay
ton will be at the top, they aren't
making overtures to Robinson or
any one in that league yet.
Clayton put up a good scrap
to beat Sheppard in eight rounds.
Both were tough and pounded
each other Justify. Clayton had
to take some stiff punishment
about the body in the early
rounds, but later found the range
to belt Sheppard freely. Clayton
appeared to be faster and smarter
than in any of his previous bouts.
