that such vessel does not come

ed the property owner can show

NEW YORK R-The steel strike
is stretching out the time table
for the long-feared post-defense
slump.
Even quick truce in Korea

in zeal for speedy rearmament--
probably wouldn't offset this effect
on timing by the strike.
Armament spending was slated
to reach its peak late this year.
Now the Presidents Council Of
Economic Advisers indicates the
slackening off in the flow Of gov
eminent funds won't come until

True, SO much Of the industrial

gram that q truce and letdown
might ultimately take q lot Of zip

Immediate effect Of a truce, how
ever, might be slight, because so
much of the armament program

they were ahead again. Finally

Igot hold of one and put it in the
left-feld stands.
We led 9 to 8. But the Dodgers
came back in their half, hit two
clean singles with one out, and
brought up a left-handed pinch
hitter. Callahan looked out to
the bullpen. There were only
two pitchers there, and only one
of them was left-handed. Gala
han heaved a sigh and waved,
and in came Lefty Gillenwater.
He tossed his eight warm-ups,
and the batter stepped in amid
the sort of racket you get in a
game like this. l signaled for a
fast ball low and outside, hoping
the hitter would go for it and
give us a double-play ball. He
didn't. l tried him again, and
again he took. So we were two
and-nothing and the next pitch
had to be good. l took a deep
breath and signaled for the
curve. Lefty stretched without
a achange of expression and threw.
1t came straight down the
middle - and broke right in,
the sweetest curve you ever saw.
The hitter took a terrific cut -
and just grazed the ball, tapping
it back to the box on two little
hops. Lefty whirled and threw
to second, and the relay to first
made it by Is feet. The roar that
started with the swing died right
in everybody's teeth.

LEFTY AND THE LADY BRAINTRUSTER
Continued from page mine

"You know what, Whitey?"
he told me, round-eyed. Randi
saw the game yesterday and she
figured out she'd made a mistake
about the curve. She left out a
square root. She figured it all
over, very careful, and it turned
out a baseball can curve after all.
l made her do it twice to be sure
- that's how come l was late.
She's a darn smart girl.
''You said it." / agreed.

GUS, till saw Randi once more.
1t was in the hotel lobby in
Philly just after the last game of
the season, which was Lefty's
third straight victory and put us
safe in fourth place.
The two of them came across
the lobby arm in arm, following
a bellhop with two suitcases.
Where do you think you're
going?" asked.
Michigan, she said. 'Lefty's
going to introduce me to his
folks. Then we'll get married"
What" was momentarily
stunned. well, congratulations
Il guess. Lucky thing Lefty
got his curve back l added,
needing her a bit.
'Oh yes" she said. Lefty
had told the bellhop to wait
while he got paper at the news

She glanced in his direction. Il

"And told him a baseball

That's right"
well, better late than never.
He sure had it working today"
She glanced over and saw
Lefty was still at the newsstand,
picking out a scientific magazine.
Don't be ridiculous!" she
snapped. "A baseball can't
curve!"

"But if you ballplayers are
silly enough to think it can, who

away she turned and stuck out
