Chuck Stobbs, who blanked
the Yankees for six innings on
two hits, possessed a IL tie and
a four-hitter entering the ninth,
when the champs won it on Andy
Carey's bases-loaded single over
Karl Olson's head in leftfield.
Roy Sievers provided the Sen
ators' run with a leadoff homer
into the leftfield seats against
Whitley Ford in the seventh in
ming. but Yogi Berra matched
that with a blast into the right
field bleachers opening the bot
tom Of the seventh.
Fans Howard Three Times
Stobbs was superb. He
struck out seven and the three
walks he issued were intentional.
He famed Elston Howard three
times. vthe only occasion that
much indignity has been in
fiicted on Howard in his career.
But Chuck bumped into Ford
when that lefthander also was
brilliant. He gave up six hits
to Stobbs' seven. struck out
seven and walked one. The only
time that pair met last season
Ford also was a 2-l victor.
If Stobbs' future efficiency
approaches the sharp pitching
he displayed yesterday. he's
headed for the finest season Of
his life. Over one stretch he
retired l3 batters in order. an
accomplishment rarely achieved
against the powerful Yanks.

Stobbs and Ford appeared to
be pitching from the same book.
Both gave up two hits in the
first six innings and walked one.
Both yielded Ieadoff homers in
the seventh.
Berra Starts Rally
Berra touched off the winning
rally with a single to left. Bill
Skowron flied out. but Gil Nc
Dougald contributed his third
hit. a double to left which
bounced freakishly OF the field
boxes. Sievers hastily retrieved
the ball and fired far wide of
the plate, but luckily Berra had
been checked at third base by
Coach Frank Crosetti.
1t was a brief break for the
Senators. though. The decision
was to pass Howard to set up a
force play and pitch to Carey.
Manager Chuch Dresser shifted
Olson from center to left, sent
Whitley Herzog to center and
yanked Sievers. He pulled in
his outflelders.
But the maneuvering was
nullified by Carey. He fouled

Rood, Renewal Plans
Called Unco-ordinuted'

A former Government official
has pointed out a startling and
expensive" lack of coordination
between highway and urban re-
Inewal programs at national and
local levels.
The opinion, appearing in an
article in Urban Land. publica-
ton of the Urban Land Institute
here. is that of James w. Follin,
former Commissioner of the
Urban Renewal Administration
Mr.. Follin says that although
the Federal Government is the
principal supported of both pro-
grams, congressional statutes do
not require coordination and
that none of the participants -
Federal or local - has done
everything required for effective
joint action.
He points to Washington's
southwest redevelopment plan
ming, as well as Pittsburgh, Nor
folk and Nashville, to show that
important benefits can come as a
by-product of urban renewal

urban renewal efforts to serve

gram"
Where slums lie in the path of
urban highway improvements.
several advantages are apparent,
he said. For example, he states
land acquisition for highways
can be at wholesale" rather
than retail" prices when under
taken as part Of an overall urban
renewal program. Also the urban
renewal laws provide for reloca-
ton of displaced families and
business, while the highway bill
does not.
Mr.. Follin recommends that
cities undertake surveys at once
to determine the location Of
blighted areas in relation to
proposed urban highway routes.
Unless cooperation is estab-
lished, Mr.. Follin predicts, the
highway program will be hard
pressed to meet its time schedule.

Slain Chicago Ex-Bonker
Was Carrying 100000

CHICAGO, April l (R.-Leon
Marcus. a prime figure in the
Orville Hodge scandal, carried
more than 100000 in cash and
checks when he was slain, police
reported today.
Marcus. 81. one-time majority
stockholder in the Southmoor
Bank and Trust Co., was killed
in gangland fashion last night.
William Tuohy. deputy chief
Of detectives theorized that the
motive for the killing may be
found in the victims financial
affairs. He said he plans to
question the principals in the
Hodge case in an effort to find
out more about Marcus dealings.
Hodge, ousted Illinois State
auditor cashed more than $780,
600 in phony State checks at the
Southmoor Bank.
Body Found in Lot
Marcus was seized by several
men after he had left the Alfred
Rado home on Chicago's South
side. He was dragged into an
automobile and whisked away.
His body. with a AS caliber
bullet wound in the back of the
head. was found shortly after

Mr.. Touhy said a $500, 900
check made out to Marcus was

officer said the check was drawn

indicate that some $4,000 in

Health Budget
Protest Ignored

An administration warning of
i'll effects of a Sl.3 million cut in
the Federal Food and Drug Ad-
miniStration appropriation ap-
parently failed to deter the House
from its determination to vote
further reductions today in the
Health, Education and Welfare
Department budget.
HEW Secretary Folsom urged
the House to restore the Sl.3 mil
lion figure because the reduction
tentatively voted last Thursday
would seriously impair the ef-
fort to assure the purity and
safety of foods and drugs con-
sumed by the American people. "
The House has tentatively
trimmed S16.8 million besides the
Sl18 million decrease recon-
mended by the Appropriations
Committee in the S2.8 billion
supply bill for the HEW and La
Dor departments.
Despite four days Of debate
last week the House still had so
many amendment proposals to
consider that it might not get
around to the Districts appro-
priation bill until late this week.
That bill was scheduled to come
up tomorrow.
Secretary Folsom said ast
night he did not agree with all
the Appropriation Committees
reductions for his department
but he believed they were based
on thorough knowledge and a
constructive approach.
"Still further major reduc-
tions simply would retard the
progress of the American people
toward better health. improved
education and greater economic
security" he cautioned. ITO
neglect health. education or eco
nomic security only piles up
greater costs in the long run. 1t
would be false economy. for ex-
ample. to cut funds for public
health and medical research
when these activities hold bright
promise of greatly reducing the
toll of disease and disability"
He maintained that the de-
partment's problems over the
years will yield far more than
their cost in preventing human
needs and fostering human
growth"
The Food and Drug Admin
iistration cut was the only one
voted thus far by the House. 1t
was tentatively approved by a
Ione-vote margin. 1892. The
House resumes work on the bill
today by considering proposed
amendments to reduce Federal
payments totaling $l27 million
for help to schools in COM
