House Members Timber Up
For Charity Baseball Game

With little time left for practice
sessions, both Democrats and Re-
publicans are bearing down in
preparation for their annual base
ball game May Is under the
Griffith Stadium lights.
Several of them have been
slipping into the House gymnasium
for little extra-workouts to un-
timber long-unused muscles. Still
others are showing up for rub
downs by the attendants after
practice sessions.
But the Congressman don't mind
a few charley horses or sprained
muscles, because all receipts from
the game will be used to send to
summer camp children who other
wise would not have chance to

Tickets for the game, sponsored
. by The Star to swell its annual
Summer Camp fund, are on sale
in the lobby of The Star Building
and at the Office of the House
doorkeeper. They are priced at
81, $1.50 and 81.
The handful of somewhat quiz
zical spectators at Fairlawn Park
got a first-hand preview of what
the big game will be like the
other day, when the Democrats
took the field for a practice ses-
sion.
Somewhat less than a team

Small Wheat Crop
Forecast Expected
TO Limit Exports
BY the Associoted Press

e
Heavy losses in this years pros
pectiye winter wheat crop may
bring some limitation on grain
exports but not shortage at home.
The Agriculture Department re-
ported yesterday that drought
and insects have destroyed about
a fourth Of the winter crop. Last
December's 899 = million bushel
forecast was cut to 682,l96, 900.
That would compare with 750
million bushels last year and the
10-year average of 791 million.
Unless there is a sharp upturn
in the condition of the crop be-
tween now and early summer har-
vest, 1t is likely that the COM
bined production Of winter wheat
and spring wheat will be the
smallest since 1943.
Officials hope the spring crop
now being planted. will produce al
least 800 million bushels. Added
to the indicated winter yield, this
would total about 982 million
bushels. compared with the Gov.
ernment's defense program goal
of 1.150, 100000 and last years
harvest of 1925, ,000,0 900.
Most Of the winter wheat crop
has been in the Southern Great
Plains extending from Kansas
into Texas.
On other crops, the Agriculture
Department reported the general
outlook, which had been rather
dlscouraging during much Of
April, turned more favorable
toward the end of the month anc
In early May.

one in the area-provided the

Starting catcher for the ma
jority party probably will be Rep
resentative Clemente of New
York, a 225- FOUNDER, who had to
have the straps on his chest pro-
tector and mask heightened so he
could wear them in comfort.
"And we got the largest catch

the first place." walled Mr.. Mil
Ter, who also is in charge of back
ing up the pitcher during batting
practice so little time is lost chas-
ing miffed balls around the in
field.
Mr.. Clemente is a long-ball hit
ter, but the trouble is most OF the
balls go straight up.
Confusion Strategy.
"Well, that's strategy. too," one
Democrat said. when Clemente
comes up, the Republican catcher
will be so confused whether tc
stay behind the plate and wait fol
the pitch, or stand in front Of the
plate ready to catch he ball after
Clemente has hit it, he soon won't
be worth much"
Representative Wheeler. o1

batted against him. will again be
the starting pitcher.
Deprecating his own ability, Mr.
Wheeler said:
ANY pitcher who can't get the
ball over the plate with a target
like Clemente to shoot at shouldn't
be on the mound"
| Manager Herlong, eager to con-
ltinue the three-game victory
streak of the Democrats, .sneered:
Those Republicans. I hear, are
already showing their feather legs
by limiting that Wheeler should be
allowed to pitch but one inning.
"They don't have the voting
strength to enforce such tactics
but even if they did I would be
ready for them. I would get them
really mad by pitting left-wingel
against them"
The left-winger he explained
