LEGISLATURE IS

off suddenly and the higher figure
wasn't heard again.
The governor himself only put
on one big push. That was when
his aides, backed UP by many
newspapers throughout the state,
got Senate committee to change
its mind and give a favorable re-
port to the dog track profits re-
duction bill. The bill whizzed
through to become law after hiatt.
McCarty, recuperating from a
heart attack, couldn't deliver his
opening message to the Legislature
and he didn't show up in his Capt.
tol office until 10 days before the
end of the session.
He had very little direct contact
with the legislators but his staff
kept closely in touch with his bills
and, working through friends, kept
them moving. Few of them actual
ly cleared until the final three
weeks, however.
Throughout the session, humor
was good. There were few ILL
tempered exchanges, bitter at
tacks and counter attacks on per-
SOnal privilege speeches, or obsti-
nate refuSals to compromise be-
tween legislators.
There was little talk of improper
influence being used to pass or
defeat legislation, and few of the
ugly hints of bribery attempts that
have marred the records of some
recent Florida legislative sessions.
1t didn't raise any general taxes
(although it took for the state
bigger share of betting taxes col
lected by dog tracks and put an
extra assessment on grapefruit to
finance an expanded fruit adver-
Using program).
1t gave tax relief to a few-by
repeating the $4,000 a year slid
ing scale license tax on chain
stores and offering farmers and
commercial fishermen a rebate on
gas taxes paid for their tractor
and boat fuel.
Its record 342 million dollar gen.
eral appropriations act became
law Thursday when Gov. McCarty
sent it to the secretary of states
office without a single change or
objection-the first time that has
happened in many years.
Although the Legislature left
something less than half the Is
million dollar working capital the
governor requested, he said the
appropriations act contained safe
guards which with prudent bust
ness management" will let the
state maintain a sound financial
! position.
He referred to a big building
fund and clauses in the law which
will let him and the Cabinet Budg-
ct Commission withhold from ex-
penditure part of the appropriated
funds if they think it is necessary.
The Senate Appropriations Com
mittee released just before the ses-
sion adjourned a balance sheet
showing total general fund appro-
priations of $751;, 229, 1886, which
would leave balance of So. ITO ,065
on June 80, 1855, if all of it were
spent.
1t estimated total available funds
of 1851, $3.50, 900 for the biennium.
Some forecasts range as high as
BIT millions.
| The Legislature was generous
with funds for education (54 mil
lion dollars more than ever be-
fore), health, welfare, state parks
and nearly all the agencies of gov
eminent.
1t provided money for a medical
college and a new mental hospital

loser of the big match takes
$3.50.
Tomorrow nights pairings will

uary. Kramer and Sedgman
have been meeting in the fea-
ture match of that series, with
Kramer leading. SO victories to

Segura, who has beaten Nc
Gregor As times in their 81 meet
ingS, did not show at his best
against Sedgman. His vollying
was below his usual standard
and he could not handle Sedg-
mans service nor keep him away
from the net.
Kramer was completely on top
of his match in the first set with
his stronger service and passing
shots. The tide turned when he
lost his service after leading at
400 in the fourth game of the
second set.
McGregor grew stronger as
play went on and at 80 in. the
final set a big upset seemed in
the making. But Kramer rallied
so brilliantly at this point that
McGregor lost his accuracy and
then his confidence and did not
get another game.
