to remove Howard County
from the proposed new 9th dis
trict.
Gov. TaWes sent his aides out
today to line up votes to kill
the amendment put on the
redistricting bill by the House
committee. He made it clear
during the closed session with
House leaders, that the bill is
an administration measure, de-
spite past statements that he
had only indorsed what Demo-
cratic party chieftains had de-
cided was the proper course to
follow.
Unit Backs Murray Plea
The Governor met today
with House Speaker Perry o.
Wilkinson, Majority Floor
Leader A. Gordon Boone and
Speaker Protein Jerome Rob-
inson.
Under the administration bill,
the 5th district of Southern
Maryland would be divided.
Prince Georges and Howard
counties would form the new
9th district. The House COM
mittee took Howard out after
a strong plea by Delaware
Daniel Murray, Democrat OF
Howard, who said his county's
interests do not fit in with
those of Prince Georges.
Mr.. Murray asked that
Howard be aligned with the
four other counties of Southern
Maryland which the reconSti-
tuted 5th district. He put his
plea on a personal basis and
had lined up enough votes in
the committee before commit
tee members got word Of how
strongly Gov. Tawes felt about
the bill.

THE CHAIRMAN of the
commission, Joseph E. Tai
bot, remarked that errors
were as plentiful today.
Mr.. Elliott's rejoinder was:
Eyes, but they get to a
lot of balls they wouldn't
stop in the old days"
Mr.. Elliott gave the sad
statistics of his industry. In
1855 domestic production of
baseball gloves hit a peak Of
3.4 million. Last year it was
2.6 million.
In 1857 Japanese imports
were 10000; in 1858, $4,000;
in 1859 over a million; last
year "a million. In other
words almost half the gloves
sold in this country are
Japanese.
One measure the industry
has taken has been to estab-
lish a factory in Puerto
Rico, where labor costs are
much lower, for the produc-
ton of lower priced gloves.

Waterfront Desiqn
Reaffirned by RIA
Way Seen Clear
To Implement
Smith Blueprint
By GEORGE WILSON
Star Staff Writer


The Redevelopment Land
Agency today reaffirmed it's
support of the Smith plan for
renewing the Southwest water
front by rejecting a rival pro-
posal.
At a closed meeting, the
board unanimously Endorsed
the report of its executive di-
rector, John R. Searles, jr.,
who said changing the pre-
viously adopted Smith plan
now could not help but cause
additional delays in the water
front development"
The rival proposal was sub
mitted to the RIA last week
by Watson B. Rulon, jr., preSi-
dent of Hogate's Restaurant.
Mr.. Rulon said his proposal
would provide more commercial
and parking space than the
Smith plan.
The plan drawn by Mrs.
Chloethiel Smith of Washing
ton calls for a series of public
parks along the waterfront be-
tween the Municipal Fish
Wharf and Fort McNair. Mr..
Rulon recommended elevating
these parks and putting cars
and shops under them.
"Must Be Public Parks"
Mr.. Searles in his recon-
mendation to the RIA BOARD
said changing these parks to
commercial uses would violate
the agreement with the District
Commissioners. who feel that
the parks must be public parks"
rather than primarily COM
mercial facilities. John Crocker,
director of the District office
of Urban Renewal, confirmed
that this is the Commissioners
position and recommended re-
lection of the Rulon plan.
Neville Miller, chairman of
the RIA, said after today's
meeting that the rejection of
the Rulon proposal means his
agency can go ahead and plan
the disposition OF the water
front with a firm plan in hand.
He added that the Smith plan
as of now is "finalized" as far
as the overall layout of the
new waterfront is concerned.
Other Sites Denied
Mr.. Rulon received additional
Setbacks at today's meeting
when the RIA board rejected
his bid for two additional sites
on the new waterfront. Mr..
SearleS in his report adopted by
the board said that giving Mr..
Rulon three sites to develop
rather than one would crowd
out all other uses of the water
front"
The same report said the
motel, wax museum and plane
tarium planned for the water
front by Mr.. Rulon should be
put somewhere else. Mr.. Searles
said there won't be enough
parking space on the water
front for motel and contended
that a wax museum and plane
tarium would not fit i'll with
the marine character of the
waterfront.
The RIA is having the
waterfront appraised so that it
can put a per-Square- foot
price on the land. Mr.. Searles
said the pricing should be fin
ished by May and the RIA will
then be in a position to allo-
cate land to developers.
AS it looks now, he said,
the present occupants of the
waterfront will take up most
of the space on the new one.
He added that efforts are
under way to relocate many of
these businessmen temporarily
while the present bulkhead is
extended SO feet out into the
Washington Channel.
Today's reaffirmation of the
Smith plan by the RIA board
followed a staff session yes
terday.

The
Rambler
Picks Up
A Gauntlet
By GEORGE KENNEDY

the Rambler, who is not
much of a donor, asked what
he wanted.
1t was a big league fielder's
glove.
That sounded quite pos
sible.
Oh boy! Imagine the Ram
bler's dismay when he priced
them.
Twenty-Five dollars plus
tax.
He bought one. This is a
very favorite nephew, as you
are gathering. And he was
glad the boy, or emerging
young man, had not decided
to play first or catch. Those
mitts are $50.
This nephew, or any other
boy who loses a glove like
that, sure is going to be in
the dog house.
You may be well assured
that before purchasing this
glove, this Rambler tried it
on.
It was ideal for the infield,
the sales clerk said. Indeed
it bore the inscription of a
famous ShortStop.
He had never seen any,
thing like it, to say nothing
of wearing such a contrap-
ton.
It had only three fingers.
The little finger and the
third finger of the left hand
fitted snuggly into an over
sized finger hole. And there
was a complicated leather
webbing between the thumb
and index finger. The clerk
said that this would trap al
most any ball that hit the
glove.
And, still more amazing,
the glove weighed over a
pound. You get a little weight
for your money.
In the old days, the boys
who really could play base
ball-and the writer was not
one of them-took pride in
the lightnesS of their gloves.
They would use their jack
knife to cut the padding out
Of the palm Of the glove. Just
stop a hot ball with one Of
their gloves and the sting
would go down to your toe
nails.
MEMORIES THAT HAVE
been consulted differ widely
on what a good big-league
,infielder's glove cost before
World War I.
Unfortunately the Library
of Congress has no file Of
the Spalding catalogues. But
my memory is that you could
get the very best glove with
.Ty Cobb's inscription, for
$3.50 or So.
The writer remembered
that hearings were held be-
fore the Tariff Commission
last month on a petition from
the industry to increase the
duties on the Importation of
baseball gloves.
Washington is a wonder
ful center for information.
Should the Library Of Con-
gress fail you, your questions
probably will be answered
in the departments and in
dependent agencies.
The Rambler went to the
old pre-Civil War building at
Eighth and E streets and
asked to see the record.
One of the witnesses was
Lefty Gomez, the former
Yankee pitcher.
He has been travelling the
country promoting Little
League Baseball and he said
he was hurt by the number
of Japanese gloves the kids
were using.
The petition was to in
crease the import duty from
the present Is per cent.
Principal witness for the in
dustry was Thomas M.
Elliott, vice president Of
Rawlings Sporting Goods Co.,
of st. Louis, Mo-, the wholly
owned manufacturing sub
sidiary of A. G. Spalding &
Co.
Mr.. Elliott rather scorn-
fully referred to the gloves
we used to use as leather
sandwiches"

bot, remarked that errors
were as plentiful today.

NewCubon Exile Setup

I MIAMI, Fla, Sept. 4 (AP) -
The shadow of Fulgencio Ba-
tista hangs over the plan of a
group of Cuban anti-CaStrc
leaders to proclaim a govern
ment-in-eXile this month.
Carlos Prio Socarras, a for
mer President of Cuba, is
spearheading the establishment
Of the government, with the
support of Representative Vic
tor L. Anfuso, Democrat, OF
New York.
But a number Of other exile
leaders say they will boycott
the meeting at which the gov
ernment is to be proclaimed
because some of the men with
Mr.. Prio Socarras are identi-
fled as pro-Batista.
! Among those in opposition
is Jose Miro Cardona. presi-
dent Of the Democratic Revolu-
tionary Council. the organiza-
ton formed before the unsuc-
cessful April II invasion to
unity the various anti-Castro
elements.
The Council is still the prin-
clpal unity organization.
Evening star., 1961-09-04

Mr.. Prio Socarras, who was
toppled from the Cuban presi-
dency in 1852, has said that
all anti-Castro Cuban organi-
zations have been invited to
the meeting.
A government exile, rec
ognized by the United States
and other countries, would be
the first step in undertaking
another anti-Castro military
action, Mr.. Prio Socarras says.
But those who point to "Ba-
tistianos" among Mr.. Prio
Socarras' supporters include
Manuel Antonio de Varona,
head of the Democratic Revo-
lutionary Front, the major Or
ganization in the Revolutionary
Council, and representatives of
the seven underground organi-
cations now in Cuba.
Those named as "BatistialoS"
include Rafael Diaz Balart,
head of the White Rose Organ
ization, and Gen. Manuel Ben
itez, Havana police chief during
the Batista regime.

CATHOLIC GROUPS:

The S~hockWaves of Nlkita
KhruShchev's nuclear
megatonS were spreading
around the globe, and
East and west we're trading
threats across the Berlin wall
when the Catholic Associa-
ton for International Peace
opened its 34th annual CON
ference here.
1t seemed an inauspicious
time 10 discuss peace. But the
very background Of world
tension served to underline
the true timeliness of thought
full efforts to work out a
peace based On justice in the
age of the nuclear balance of
terror.
THE THEME OF THE cAIP
meeting (0ct. 26 to 29) was
"Ethics and Foreign Policy"
An interesting side aspect was
the presence On the program
of several Protestant spokes-
men - an indication of how
the concept of interfaith "di-
alogue" is spreading into
many areas.
A represen t of the
Protestant theological COM
munity sharply differed with
western opponents of coexist-
ence with communism.
DR.. John C. Bennett, dean
of faculty at Union Theologi-
cal Seminary, New York, said
the view of the opponents of
coexistence almost certainly
will lead to hot war"
He added:
WHENEVER PEOPLE say
to me Give me liberty or give
me death and from these no.
bic words deduce a cold war
policy that is likely to lead to
a nuclear catastrophe, | say:
IF such a war should come,
liberty will probably not sur
vive, and as for death, it is
not only your death that is in
volved, but the death of
countless people who never
made this choice"
DR.. Bennett also challenged
the notion that God is always
on the Vests side in the cold
war. In fact, he said, COM
munism is "a judgment upon
the sins and failure of
the Christian world"
