There was a time, also, when
the paraders got freque
glimpSes of well-known society
figures, political leaders, stars of
stage and screen, going into st.
Patrick's or st. Thomas up the
Avenue.
Times have changed in that
respect, too. Tomorrow there
might be a celebrity here and
there. But any one expecting
to see many big names" must
look elsewhere.
The big names long ago gave
u pthe Easter parade to the
curious and publicity seekers.
The publicity seekers this year
are an unknown quantity. The
campaign against them by police,
the press and television last year
might discourage the worst
models wearing bottles to adj
vertlse hand lotion or carrying
bonneted dogs to advertise hat
designers.

terminus near the Calvert Street
Bridge.
From the creek bridge, the
parkway extension would tunnel
through rocky hill on Zoo prop
erty before skirting the parks
eastern edge.
The Colorado avenue tie-in is
supported by both District high
way and National Capital Plan
ming Commission officials. The
District intends to widen Colo
RADIO avenue so traffic could
Siphon off congested Sixteenth
street and have q clear shot to
downtown Washington on the
new leg Of the parkway.
1t was learned, however. that
some park officials now feel the
four-line parkway should extend
through the park only as far as
Piney Branch parkway and Til
den street--not all the way to
Colorado avenue.
Bridge Money in Hand.
If this view is pushed, it is
certain to hit strong opposition
from both city road builders and
planners. Highway engineers
noted that Tiiden street narrows
to only two lanes in the park.
And the Pipey Branch parkway
leads only to a dead-end with
Arkansas avenue NV.
Park officials, meanwhile, have
had money in hand for nearly a
year to build the new creek
bridge near the Zoo entrance.
The possibility of making the
bridge. tunnel and parkway ex-
tension only two lanes in width
has been discussed. it was
learned, but top officials told
The Star it was quite evident"
a four-lane extension is needed.
Other park road improve

study as a result of the increased
funds to be available include:
q Construction of part of the
proposed Fort drive through
Palisades Park from Macarthur

Coz. Leaders Fear
House Maneuyerinu
On Military Fund Bill
By Robert K. Wolsh

= ) j go : = y n +. + E
The military appropriation
bill to be reported out when the
House ends its Easter recess
Aprh rs may produce TACTICS
similar to those used in action on
the Agriculture Department sup
ply bill last week.
Some members Of the Appro-
priations Committee and on both
sides in the House are known to
favor boosting the amounts re-
quested by President Eisenhower
for the armed services.
But the immediate question.
in the opinion Of legislative
leaders. is not merely whether
the House viii repeat its maneu-
yer which added $21 million
more for cash OUTLAWS and $45
million more for loan authorize
tons than the Eisenhower budget
sought for the Agriculture De-
partment.
May Shift Emphasis.
The main problem, these lead
ers feel, involves possible tactics
to cut various items in the adj
miniStration's military budget
and increase others in such a
way as to keep the overall total.
but fundamentally shift the en-
phasis of defense spending.
Administration spokesman in
the House predicted earlier this
month that the military appro-
priation bill would go through
substantially as recommended by
Gen. Eisenhower, if"only because
most House members have spe-
cial confidence in his proposals
in that field.
Since House passage Of the
Agriculture Department bill and
the paradoxical moves. that &C
companied it. however. the Re-
publican leaders are more on
guard than usual.
Sixth Major, Fund Bill.
The Agriculture bill was the
sixth major departmental sup
ply bill approved by the House
in less than two months. It was
the first in which the House
voted more money than the ad-
ministration asked. The House
kicked over the traces by re-
versing many cuts its Appropria-
tions Committee had made.
The result caused Republican
leaders to suspect that some APP
preparations Committee mem
bers employed a tactic of cutting
items they believed might be
restored by the House but also
increasing items they felt con-
fident the House would uphold.
At things turned out. the House
not only approved such increases
but voted a few more of its own.

Too Many Laughs End
Gleason Show Too Soon

NEW YORK. April 17.-Tele-
vision viewers missed the end of
Jackie Gleason's CHS comedy
show tonight, and the network
said it was because the audience
laughed too long.
The longer than scheduled
laughs. CHS said. caused the
show to run overtime about 80
or 40 seconds.
The result was that the viewers
did not see Mr.. Gleason, playing
double role, unscramble a
complicated plot about gang
sters, or hear the police sirens
that would have signified that
it all turned out right in the end.

pending appropriation bills call
for only q $925, 900 appropriation
for parkways and $50 million for
park roads.
/. Thus. the $9.1 million left in
the 1855 authorization, plus the
two. $11 million authorizations
for the following two. years. all
would be available for parkway
contracts: under the new bill.
This three-year total amounts to
$31.1 million. The three-year
total available for park roads
amounts to another $3l.2 million.
These funds look small COM
pared with backlogs of need. The
backlog estimates amount to $186
million for parkways and $197.5
million for park roads and trails.
But about "a per cent Of the
parkway money backlog is cen
tered in the Washington area.
At Work on Evaluation.
Park officials already are, at
work on a new evaluation of
needs. When it is finished. a
proposed construction schedule
will be presented to Mr.. Mckay.
The construction program, in
turn will be- submitted to the
Budget Bureau.
Mr.. Wirth said that until such
program is drawn up he could
not estimate how much money
might be available for Wash
ington area needs. He added,
Washington always has got a
share in proportion to what we
have for needs all over the
country"
Since the Federal Government
already has land on both sides
Of the Potomac River for the
George Washington Memorial
parkway, Mr.. Wirth said he
hoped "a considerable amount"
might be allotted to that over
the next. three years. rs
Parkway to Great. Falls.
AS planned, the parkway would
extend from Mount Vernon to
Great Falls in Virginia, and a
parellel distance across the river
in Maryland. Land acquisition
is virtually complete from the
District line to Great Falls in
Maryland. In Virginia, the park
way has been built as far as
Spout Run-just upriver from
Key Bridge-and money is avail
able for land to the Arlington
Fairfax County line.
Construction of the parkway
from Spout Run to Chain Bridge
in Virginia would cost $3.5 mil
lion, officials estimate.
Construction estimates for the
Maryland section from Chain
Bridge-where Canal road now
ends-to Great Falls are not
available. Some officials feel
strongly the Maryland project
should be pushed first, because
nearly all the necessary land is in
hand.
The parkway's total cost-on
both sides of the river-is esti-
mated at $18.5 million. Other
parkway needs listed in this area
include completion Of the Suit
land parkway from Silver Hill,
Md, to the Marlboro pike, SIS
million, and parkway along the
c. & o. Canal, $21.3 million. The
controversial C. g. o. project,
however, is being restudied by
Interior officials.
Is Park Road Studied.
Washington area projects most
likely for high priority in the.
park road" category include
plans to extend the Rock Greek
and Potomac parkway through
Zoo property and along the east
ern edge of the park to connect
with Colorado avenue. This would
cost an estimated $2,250,000.

SHS BASEBALL
DRILLS START
Horney and Everett Split
Coaching Duties IS Eagles
Start Diamond Drills
NINE LETTERMAN BACK

Last week marked the start of
Baseball practice for the Eagles of
Smyrna High School. The Eagles
are being coached this year by two
able men, which should prove very
beneficial to the candidates. The
Eagles are coached by Mr.. Hor-
ney and Mr.. Everett. Both have
had much active experience in the
diamond sport. Mr.. Horney played
for the University of West Virginia
and Mr.. Everett played for Wash
ington College, and also played
professional baseball for several
years after he was graduated from
sollege. Coach Horney viii take
charge over the catchers, pitchers,
and outfielders, while Coach Ever
EFT will work with the infielders.
During their first few practice
SESSIONS, the Eagles will spend
much of their time on exercises,
sliding routines, bunting, pick offs
on base and other important fun
damentals of the game. The outlool.
for this years Red and White team
is as bright as it has been for sew
eral years. Last years nine posted
a record of 5 wins and losses,
and it was considered by most per-
sons that, last seasons team was
inexperienced. The Eagles have 0
returning lettermen who are Jay
Knight, Phil Voshell, John Fort
ner, Sam Jacobs, Karl Gebhart,
Eddie Dafln, Edgar Cox, Leroy
Everett, and James Orvis. Other
boys expected to be on hand this
week for practice are Freddie
Corso, Walter Moffett, Paul Loder,
John Clark, and Roy Donovan.
Another high point of the Eagles
this season is the fact that they
have 8 of the leading hitters on
last years team back. Sam Jacobs
was leading contender last year
with .457, James Orvis with 1852,
and John Fortner with 1888. Dick
Scott had a .455 average, but
