FLOP AS HIGH SCHOOL KICKER
Borstod's Toe Brings.
Gophers Nearer Bowl

MINNEAPOLIS. Nov. Z up. =
BY his own admission, Mime
sofas Dick Borstad was an in
glorious flop as a high school
kicker.
Yet three years after he gave
up in evaporation following five
straight extra point misses in
one game as a schoolboy. the
junior fullback is hitting 1000
in one of the toughest assign
ments OF them all-winning foot
ball games with last-quarter
field goals.
Borstad has done it twice. I'M
der conditions of weird coinci-
dence that would look better IN
fiction than in the football rec
ord books Two weeks ago he
kicked the first field goal of his
life, a l2-yarder that beat Hi
nois, 1913, with two minutes
and 40 seconds to go.
Last Saturday against Pitts
burgh he was waved in by Coach
Murray Warmath with 2::34 re-
naming. The angle was bad
and the ball was soggy. But
Borstad kicked it through from
% yards and Minnesota stayed
unbeaten, go. In both cases he
fought the effects of hip in

NEW YORK, July 81 (P.-
Search for kidnapped Peter Wein-
berger continued today after an
autopsy showed that a child's
body found in the East River
was that of a newborn baby.
The body was found by a barge
captain yesterday. Police and
FBI agents rushed to the scene
to determine whether it might be
that of the Weinberger boy.
The city's chief medical ex-
aminer, DR.. Milton Halpern, said,
however, that the unidentified
victim was between three and
seven hours old" at the time Of
his death.
The Weinberger baby was 80
days old when kidnapped July 4
from in back of his parents home
in suburban WeStbury on Long

wanted to review the use of that
land.
In this connection, Senator
Chavez spoke very highly of the
bill introduced by Senator john
son, Democrat of Texas, the ma
jority leader of the Senate, which
proposes that the old Court of
Claims building be RACED and a
new building erected there for
the court.
This was contrary to some
plans which would provide a
new home for the Court of
Claims to the east of the United
States Supreme Court building.
Senator Chavez argued that
it made considerable sense to
have the Court of Claims build
ing rebuilt on it's present site
instead of having the Govern
ment spend 81 million or so for
a new site elsewhere. He said
the new Court of Claims build
ing could be erected on a por-
ton of the site at Seventeenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue
and still leave space for addi-
tional offices for the Executive
Branch.
Action Is fastened
The building subcommittee OF
the Senate Public Works Com
mittee. headed by Senator Nc
Namara, Democrat of Michigan,
was scheduled to meet last night
to consider the eight projects
approved by the House unit.
With the adjournment race on,
however, the subcommittee meet
ing suddenly blossomed into a
meeting of the full committee
1t didn't take long to approve
the five projects in the District.
But the staff was directed to get
additional information to permit
a review of the three other prof.
ects.
On the general question of
going out of town for sites for
some of the Government agen-
cies. Chairman Chavez said these
agencies want to buy a park"
He added the District still is

the seat of Government OF the
United States and that II don't
know why we should go 10 or Is
or 20 or more miles away to buy
some park land"
Further Action Possible
Chairman Chavez said the
three projects which were being
held up were not necessarily dead
for this session of Congress. He
said the committee was going to
make its review and that another
session probably would be held
next Monday or Tuesday.
He was asked if this meant
that the three deferred projects
might get approval at next weeks
He replied: IF it de-
velops that they can and should
be built in the District instead of
going out of town ! am willing
to say that the answer is yes"
What was approved and are
now ready for action are the fol-
lowing projects: :
Three small Office buildings in
Area C Southwest, which is in
volved in the city'S redevelop-
ment program, these having an
estimated top cost of $25.2 mil
lion.
Other Projects Ready
A building south of Maryland
avenue and east of Sixth street
S.W,, $16.2 million.
A building for the Food and
Drug Administration on D street
between Second and Third
streets S.W.,. to cost $12.2 million.
A building north of C street
and west of Nineteenth street
NV, to cost $21.2 million.
And a building south of In
dependence avenue between
Sixth and Ninth streets S.W.,
estimated to cost up to $40.9
million.

gram private architects will plan
and private builders will con-
struct the authorized projects.

number of years and eventually

Rebuke Is Intended
Even if American officials
started working with the Egyp-
tlans on new ways to spend the
money, there would not be time
to complete the planning in
fiscal year 1857.
Administration officials are
no moves whatsoever to
find other methods of helping
Egypt at this time, however. The
primary purpose of withdrawing
from the Aswan high dam prof.
ect, they admit, was political
to spank President Nasser for

with other aid. no matter how
