MIDWAY of last season, 24year-old
IXl pitcher for the Cedar Rapids Qowa)
club of the Glass Three League sorrow
fully packed his gear and went home. With a
sore arm that refused to respond to treat
ment, Bob Stoico's baseball career appeared
ended before it really got started.
Stoico decided to give it another chance
this spring when George McQuinn, scout for
the new Washington Senators who had been
his manager at Topeka, Kans., told him he
would be welcome at the clubs spring train
ing camp at Pompano Beach, Fla. Stoico
showed up, hopeful but anxious. His arm still
bothered him.
Three days after reporting to camp,
Stoico's arm was better, thanks to the insight
and skill of an ex-hockey player from Min
neapolis named Tom McKenna. This big,
friendly Irishman with the compassionate
eyes and ready smile is the clubs trainer
the man responsible for keeping the athletes
fit for the grueling competition ahead.
Hes wonderful" says StoicO. Il had this
arm trouble two years. They sent me to ten
different doctors. They gave me all kinds
of shots. He works on it couple days and it
feels great"
McKenna laughs off the suggestion that
he is some sort of miracle man. I've seen
that type of ailment before, lots of times"
he says. Il don't know why they gave him

Sad Budget News

The American Bankers ASsOcia-
ton, congregated in San Francisco
for its annual get-together, was
greeted with sad news from Secre-
tary of the Treasury Douglas Dill
Ion. AS Dillon put it, This years
budget will be somewhat more
than six and three-quarter billion
dollars in the red"
Unfortunately, this is but the lat
est estimate of what has become
the 'growingest" deficit in years.
just before leaving office, Presi-
dent Eisenhower predicted that fis-
cal '62 would end up one and "a
half billion dollars in the hole. In
one of the. first public statements
of the Kennedy administration, this
estimate was denounced as "too
low, and two billions was de-
clared to be much more realistic.
But now both these figures have
been left way behind, and the end
to this guessing game may not be
yet For fiscal SO has nearly nine
months more to run. With the
Berlin crisis apt to get hotter, no
one knows what could happen to
the budget.
While Secretary Dillon undoubt-
eddy shocked the bankers with his
deficit announcement, he tried to
ameliorate the effect by promising
balanced budget for fiscal '63.
Happy news, but even the admins
tration's best friends will agree
that this would be a wonderful
trick if it could be pulled off.
For surely the federal govern
ment's outlay will not be less dur
ing that period than now. And if
President Kennedy holds true to
his promise of no increase in taxes
the only thing which can possibly
put fiscal '63's budget in balance
is a boom of siZeable proportions
We would all be in favor of the
latter event.
