Craig Wisotzki, former winner
of the WorSham Memorial at
Bethesda c. c., is an alternate,

title.
Frank Cronin, the Maryland
coach, figures his team would
be a lock for its first ACC golf
title if Beman had remained in
school.
In 1857 Maryland had an
ILL dual meet record with six
District area boys comprising
the team-Deane and Del Be-
man, Carl Lohren, Bill Dudley,
Jerry McFerren and John
Owen. They all lived within
Is miles of the campus. They
finished third in the ACC and
fourth in the National Inter-
collegiates in the team chase.
This is perhaps the sec
ond best Maryland team, and
with the home course as an ad-
vantage, could take it all.
The entire field will play 18
holes Friday and the final 18
Saturday. Each school will en-
ter six men, with the low -four
to make up the team. All over
the six designated players will
play for the individual title
only.
Palmer of Wake Forest, Sou
chak and Wall of Duke, Ward

of Maryland, give the ACC a
ranking that tops any collegiate
conference. A worthy successor
may be crowned this week end.

Inc bottom OF thlS-one OF
the shortest and mildest busi-
ness downturns since World
War I-Should be reached
within the next few weeks.
The beginning of the re-
covery phase of the business
cycle is directly ahead.
Not by a long shot will the
economic statistics issued this
month reveal this, for these
barometers will be rejecting
the events of February, when
much Of our nation was Suf-
fering under severe storms.
But the underlying forces
indicate unmistakable i'm
provementS in an increasing
number of vital sectors of the
economy. The favorable
signals of a turn in the
economy are multiplying, the
unfavorable signals are fading.
What's more, this is true
in the face Of the fact that
stimulating steps by the Gov
ernment are just taking hold
or are still to come. n..-.
The unemployed are still to
get the help of an extension of
jobless insurance benefits; the
bill to aid depressed areas is
still to pass. Government spend
ing on defenese contracts is
still being accelerated, spend
ing on highways is still being
speeded up, credit for housing
is still becoming more avail
able and cheaper. And none
of the long-term moves to spur
economic growth has started
through Congress.
This is the most optimistic
and least qualified report I've
submitted on the economy in
over a year.
The reason I'm discussing
this today is not only that
new evidence is appearing of
an approaching turn. The rea-
son also is that, beginning
tomorrow, my annual two
week tax SerieS-will appear
and it'll be late March-early
April before I'll again have
the privilege of writing on the
economic situation.
BY early April, barring an
unforeseeable upset, this i'm
portant and encouraging news
should be becoming apparent.
Item: OF the IL leading
indicators" which have in the
past signaled major economic
turns in advance of the fact,
only one is continuing clearly

now either mixed" or semi
favorable" or plainly favorable.

Sive. The leading indicators are
now drawing a classical

Item: The frightening psy-

has been extraordinary. Four
out of five of 1,100 leading
businessmen across the coun-
try polled by Dun's Review on

lief that the current recession
has hit bottom or is on the
road to recovery. More than
one in four feels the recovery
is already well under way.
