clared here today.
Addressing the 43d annual
convention Of the District
Bankers Association at the
Homestead, Mr.. Nourse said
union leaders are preparing
wage demands and industrial
pricem a kers are planning
markups that will short-circuit
the Administrators full en-
ployment program into a new
initiation game.
THE stock market is dis
counting such initiation in a big
way" he said.
Mr.. Nourse, who formerly was
vice president Of the Brookings
Institution and chairman of
President Truman's Council Of
Economic Advisers, said he felt
that economic signs In the last
two or three decades had been
distorted to magnify fiscal and
monetary Tnanipulations as the
means to attain full employ
ment and maximum production.
Economists, Government of
ficials and the general public
have been led to denegate or
neglect the role of private busi-
ness management and organized
lbor's growing influence, he de-
clared.
Challenge Recognized
Business executives and labor
union executives themselves fell
under the insidious delusion
that even with the great power
they we're gaining, with the ad-
vance of multibillion-dol
corporations and multimillion-
member unions, they were abb
solved from any positive re-
Sponsibility for maintenance for
national prosperity" he con-
tinued.
When. business and labor
jointly produced such a mess as
the 117-day steel shutdown or
the assassination of price COM
petition, it apparently was
hoped the President and Con-
greSs would in some magical
way compensate for this breach
Of public trust, make the gross
national product so ample that
everyone could come in for
grabs and yet all these
groups would be free to con-
tinue their irresponsible ways"
the speaker declared.
By his prompt creation of an
advisory committee on labor
management policy, the Presi-
dent has recognized this chal-
lenge to his economic states
manship. Mr.. Nourse said.
"If an automobile workers
strike erupts before the labor
management conference has
time to enlighten the minds of
strong and willfull men or tries
to use national security as the
weapon of its bargaining power,
he will be loath to sit supinely
by" Mr.. Nourse predicted.
"The Soldering SOS"
Mr.. Nourse told the bankers
the correct description Of this
decade may prove to be "the
SOLDERING SOS" rather than the
soaring sos"
The Presidents economic
craftsmanship so far has ap-
peared ''knowledgeable, dis
eliminating, vigorous, and at
the same time prudent" he said.
Although Mr.. Kennedy has
expressed deep concern, even
alarm, over the state of the
economy, he has not pressed
the panic button and in a num-
ber of important areas has held
that behind what the Congress
insisted on doing.
"He has curbed his zeal to
apply Federal measures and
promote activity and growth
till he could see how fast and
how far the existing forces of
recovery will carry. He was too
canny to resort to artificial
Stimulants which would come
into effect just in time to turn
healthy prosperity into infla-
tionary BOOM"

MAKES BEST PLAY EVER
Boyer Fielding Star
Of Series Opener

IN the fifth, Post singled.
Two outs later, with Post on
second base, Darrell johnson
bounced to Boyer, who elected
to make the tag on the charg-
ing runner instead of throwing
to first base. Post made a
football-type arm and shoulder
block as he came barging down
the line. Boyer, although
knocked back several feet, held
the ball, and trotted into the
dugout.
Has No Hard Feelings
In the clubhouse, Boyer said
his head still hurt from the
collision. He also displayed a
bruised lip and felt his head
gingerly. feeling around for a
sore spot.
I've had a headache since
the fifth inning" he said rue
fully. y think he hit me with
his shoulder on the lip. He hit
me pretty good. l was waiting
for him 1 wasn't going to
back off.
No hard feelings, except in
my mead. He was just playing
the game. l would have done
the same thing"
Boyer held up his right arm,
showing the scrape just below
the elbow. The blood was still
oozing from it.
This wasn't from the COLI
sion," he said. This is a SOU
venlr from the play on Gernert.
I'd like to see a picture of it.

NEW YORK, Oct. 5 (AP).-
There was no question today
as to who was the fielding star
Of the opening game of the 1861
World Series. 1t could only be
Clete Boyer, the Yankees sure
handed third baseman.
Boyer had a swollen lip and
an ugly scrape on his right arm
to show for his efforts, which
consisted of two brilliant field
ing plays and a determined
put-out of Cincinnati's Wally
Post in a collision on the base
path between second and third.
The piece de resistance was
a sensational play on Pinch
hitter Dick Gernert in the
eighth inning which Clete calls
his best ever.
His Biggest Thrill
1--WE made a lot of good
plays" said the 24-year-old
brother of Ken Boyer, st. Louis
Cardinal star, but this was my
best ever. I thought the one 1
made on Romano (Cleveland's
John Romano) earlier this year
was my best. But 1 had to go
farther for this one. I didn't be-
lieve it when I saw the ball in
the glove. 1t gave me my biggest
thrill"
Whitley Ford was bidding for
his third consecutive World
Series Shutout and had two out
in the eighth. Gernert, batting
for Pitcher Jim O'Toole, drove
a hard smash headed for the
hole between third and short.
Boyer flung himself at the ball
and gloved it. Then, from a
kneeling position. he threw a
strike to First Baseman Bill
Skowron to beat Gernert.
In the second inning, he
made a sprawling stop of Gene
Presses hard drive, this time
to his right, and as in the
eighth, got his man with a
throw from a kneeling position.

by it.
Reporter: Did you learn any
thing watching out there to-
day?
Jay: Sure. I learned we need
to get more runs.
Reporter: Does it make it
tougher on you because your
team lost the first game?
Jay: How could it? Don't l
still have to win the second one,
whether we won the first one
or lost it?

this year. You won only nine
last year. Tell me, what were
you doing differently this year?
