CONGRESS HEARS the TO-
ment in the proposals for a
National Civic Center, a Ma
tional Medical Library and a
National Stadium. The Smith
Sonian is after a long list Of
things, including a National
Air Museum.
The National Gallery of
Art, with the addition of the
Kress collections, has taken
another step toward bolster
ing its growing international
prestige.
The Citizens Zoning Advi-
sorry Committee, recognizing
the Importance of the peoples
voice in the future of their
city, is taking its plans for a
general rezoning to a series of
meetings with the public this
week and next.
But there still are some
with little faith in the city's
future. The sharpeSt recent
foment in this connection has
come from the National Capt.
tai Planning Commission,
touched off by the Bureau of
Standards plan to move to
Montgomery County.
The mission feels,
rightly, that Washington is
the seat of Government, a
nerve center which should not
spread itself too thin, and the
Government agencies Should
stop their willy-nilly moves to
the suburbs.
1t is understandable how
institutions like the Bethesda
Naval Hospital and the Ma
tional Institutes of Health
might seek a more serene
setting.
But the Bureau of Stand
ards and the Central IntelIi-
gence Agency? They have no
more business outside Wash
ington than the General Ac-
counting Office, which has
found that downtown WASH
ington is quite satisfactory
for its sprawling Office build
ing.

Miss Kelly Gets
Warm Welcome
By Prince Rainier
Friday. April IL. 1856

MONTE CARLO, R-American
film star Grace Kelly greeted Mo
naco's Prince Rainier III with a
big smile and darling" yesterday
as they staged a romantic reunion
on the blue Mediterranean.
Grace and the man she will
marry. next week were reunited
on Rainier's yacht just offshore
from his tiny Riviera principally.
The 32-year-old bhdegroom-to-
be sailed his cleaning white, 138-
foot craft out to tie up beside the
liner Constitution, which had
brought his bride and a shipload
of relatives, friends and reporters
from America.
The only immediate kissing was
a light one Rainier quickly plant
ed on the future princess slender
hand.
Five minutes later, as the yacht
steamed toward shore and the
couple stood on the bridge, the
Prince wrapped his arms around
his fiancee. Holding her big white
hat on with one hand, Grace snug
gled up and put an arm around
Rainier'S shoulders.
Then radiantly holding hands
they sailed into port to a tuInuitu-
Gus welcome.
With them were Grace'S par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. John B. Kelly
of Philadelphia, who had followed
her on to the yacht from the liner.
AS they neared the big stone
entrance to the port, Grace and
the Prince embraced again. Then,
with one arm still around his
bride-to-be Rainier pointed to his
palace, high atop the hill where
Miss Kelly will make her future
home.

Fear Of Injury to Key Players
Causes CIV to Ease Up Drills

Coach 30 Sherman of George
Washington's football team has
Ieased up on scrimmaging his
Colonials, and instead is working
the players in small groups by
positions.
Not since last Friday have the
Colonials had a real team-vs.-
team lead-banging session, al
though there have been some
team drills since in which tack
ling and blocking wasn't as hard
and vicious as is expected in a
real game.
Fear of injuries is the reason
for easing contact work. The
Colonials have only 81 players on
the varsity and can't afford to
have any important players hurt.
There just aren't any replace
mentS.
The cool, more football-like
weather of recent days hasn't
been as welcome to the CIV
coaching staff as might be ex-
pected. Sherman prefers hot
weather for conditioning his
players. He finds the players
want to stay in bed on a cool
morning and take longer in get
ting warmed up, and he's afraid
some might catch colds.
Emphasis this week is on the
fine points of fundamentals,
with linemen laboring to perfect

World Series
'IsA|I Set, But
There Are Ifs

NEW YORK, Sept. II (P.--
The World Series is officially
scheduled to open October 8 in
the National League park-but
it might be a bit later If the N. L,
can't decide which park.
Commissioner Ford Prick set
the date for the 1856 classic after
a Commute discussion with
representatives of the pennant
contenders in both leagues yes
terday.
The first two games will be
played in the National League
park, with the series then SHIFT
ing to the American League park
for the next three, if needed. in
the best-of-seven championship.
If more games are necessary,
they'll be played in the National
League park.
$40 Top on Tickets
Ticket prices. the same as last
year and including Federal but
not local taxes, are $40 for a box
seat, 81 reserved, So bleachers
and 81 for standing room.
All games will begin at / pm.
local time. except on Sunday in
New York, when the game will
start at 2 pm. milwaukee is 2
hours behind Washington and
Cincinnati / hour.)
The only problem at the mo-
ment is the National League
pennant winner. It could be
Milwaukee, Brooklyn or Cincin-
natl. And a two-team or three
team playoff may be needed to
decide.
Under MI rules, a two-team
tie for first place means a best
of-three playoff. A three-way
tie calls for a double-elimination
playoff-which could drag on for
five days or more.
Prick, noting the possibility of
a tie in the National League, said
there will be a one-day break
between the end of the playoff
and start of the Series, unless
the final playoff game is played
in the winners park. Then the
Series will begin the day after
the playoff.
Travel Time Ordered
If either Milwaukee or Gin
cinnati wins the pennant, there
will be days travel time when
the Series shifts from one park
to the other. If Brooklyn wins
the right to face the Yankees, no
travel time will be needed.
The Yankees need only a COM
bination of eight victories or
Cleveland or Chicago defeats to
clinch the American League flag.
Cleveland and Chicago currently
are tied for second place, IL
games back.
All f1rSt-division clubs were
invited to yesterdays meeting,
but the White Sox, Red Sox and
Cardinals passed it up.

Sporrows Point Course
No Mystery to Musser

Most golfers have favorite
courses. Some prefer tough ones,
some like the easy ones. others
score better where it's wide open,
and the straight shooters are
tops on wooded layouts.
But Johnny Musser, the All
View Club pro in Ellicott City,
isn't choosy. He plays in almost
all of the tournaments, and if
he's making those six and eight
foot puts he wins on all kinds
of courses.
Musser, recent winner of the
Howard County Open over his
home course, probably is the top
money winner over the last half
of the season.
Yesterday the Mid-Atlantic
pros visited the Sparrows Point
course for the first time. Ten
players had too much trouble to
turn in card, and nine didn't
break 80.
But MusSer matched par the
first time he saw the layout and
was the pro sweepstakes winner
with 70. John O'Donnell OF
Mount Pleasant had IA for Sec
ond, and Harry Griesmer Of
Bethesda, Carl Rasnic of Berwyn,
Bill Gehring of Baltimore Coun-
try Club and Ronnie Stansbury,
homeclub assistant, had 75s.
Musser and William r. West
of the host club and Stansbury
and Tom Towney tied in the pro-
am with best ball 65s. Dick Hend-
rickson of Baltimore was low

of the host club won net with

teams two best kickers, Fullback
Bo Austin and Halfback Dick
Claypool, both are in the first
unit. and there's no thought of
dropping either back to the Sec

there. Claypool also is devel-
oping into an excellent field goal

year the Colonials will shoot for
three points if they bog down

Bosi|io, Sexton Confident
As They Await I title Bout

SYRACUSE, Sept. IL up.
Welterweight champions have
been playing with the 147-pound
title as if it was a bean bag
for the last couple of years. In
four of the last five title fights,
the challenger has romped off
with the championship.
Carmen Basilio, dethroncd as
boss of the welters by Johnny
Saxton some six months ago,
firmly believes the title will
bounce his way once more to-
morrow night when he meets
Saxton in the War Memorial
Auditorium.
(The nationally televised
fight will be seen in Washing
ton over The Evening Stars
Station WMAL-TV. Channel
z, at 10 PM
Hes had it long enough" the
29-year-old Basilio said after
finishing up his training with
gym work yesterday. He was
lucky-very lucky-to grab it in
Chicago March IA. If the referee
had let me work inside would
still be the champion. Okay, this
time it will be different.
Il know what he can do. I've
been watching the movies of that
fight and I've seen lot of things
/ shouldn't have done and a lot
OF things he does wrong. l know
I'm going to catch up with him
this time. ] don't know if 1t will
be by a decision or by a knock
out but / know I'm going to win.
Despite Basilio's optimism. the
odds favoring him dropped from
s-to-5 TO 7-to-5 and slightly
under today. 1t would not be
surprising if the 26-year-old
Saxton went into the ring as a
slight choice. In their last fight,
Basilio was a 2-to-l favorite
over the fast-moving. fast
punching New Yorker.
Saxton. more confident than
ever, finished his training with
a two-round session with Prince
Johnson at Summit. N. j.. yes
terday. He will fly into Basilio's
home territory tonight.
IN show them all that I'm
entitled 70 be the champion. y
Saxton said. There was no doubt
