GOVERNOR
which the Legislature used in
its budget estimates.
The Governor pointed out
that the Legislature, apparent
~, did not take into considera-
lion $ Q m e two hundred
thousand dollars in transfers
Of escrow funds included in
the 1859 actual revenue which
would not necessarily recur in
1860. Nor has the Legislature
noted the falling off of certain
operating revenues approx
mating sec, nor the fact
that the Williams amendment
tc the federal estate laws and
results Of the current Congress
sional inquiry into our tax
exemption laws might well
operate to decrease our rev
enues substantially in the ifs
cal year 1860" the Governor
stated.
Governor Merwin further
stated, Common prudence
and good judgment should
dictate that we cannot safely
base our 1860 fiscal program
upon the hope that good for
tune Will smile on US TO the
extent of a windfall Of half Il
million dollars over and above
cur revenues of 1859" The
Governor also warned that
even the revised budget, after
his item vetoes, may still ex-
coed actual revenues and it
will be necessary to control
allotments below the bud
getted totals until it is known
whether or not the funds
necessary to finance the bud
get as approved will be avail
able for expenditure"

Southern Takes
Two From AIcorn

A Brave SO" went down to de-
feat before the Southern Jaguar
Cats during two game series,
60 and 1914. Eddie Nunnery was
the losing pitcher in the 60 game
and Griffin of Southern was the
winning pitcher. That game was
played March 9th.
In the game played March 7,
1859, Jackson was the winning
pitcher and Pearson was the los
ing pitcher in the 1914 game.
In the first game, Nunnery did
not give up hit for seven innings
before he went down before the
powerful Southern "9": In the
second game, Pearson pitched good
ball, but he had trouble with the
corners and walked a lot of men.
Pearson was robbed of a home run
which hit on the inside of the foul
line but rolled out.
This was the first game of the
season and if the Braves STAYED
off and on slaughter by Southern,
it does not appear that as the
season ripens they will come
through with good performance.

all look like good ball players,

We learned that the concentra-
ton on rockies was part of the new
Red Bird program. A Red Bird
executive told us, "Mr. Busch tried
to buy players at first. (The Cards
paid 100000 for Tom Aston in
1859. "Now he has decided to
base the team fortunes on the
scouts, coaches and sound farm
system"
We commented on the relaxed
atmosphere in the dressing room.
Old-timers in st. Petersburg had
told US that the whole team spirit
had taken on a new glow, in COM
parison with other years. Seems
there was a heavy cloud of serious
ness during training sessions.
We talked with the Negro play
ers on the Cards chartered bus
going to Tampa from st. Peters
burg for the B team game, and in
the dressing room at Al Lang Field
after the game with the Yanks.
The guys in impressed with the
friendliness of the team, and the
sincere interest of the coaches, and
the manager. The player-manager
relations on the team are excellent.
They were anxious to get into some
games and show their stuff.
The Negro players on the Roster
are: Pitchers-Frank Barnes, Mar
shall Bridges, Robert Gibson, Sam
Jones, and Dick Ricketts,; Infield-
ers-George Crow, Billy Harrell
and Julio Gotay; Outfielders-Ellis
Burton, Joe Durham and Curtis
