Ferraro moved into a tie for
leading rider honors yesterday
when he won two races, his
10th and Goth here, and fin
ished in the money with three
Of his four other mounts.
No less an observer than
Charles (Chick) Lang, Pimlico's S
director of racing and a placing
Judge here, is high on Ferraro.
"He looks like a rider who is
going to make it," says Chick,
who Steered Hartack through
some of his golden seasons
when he was Bills agent.
"Sure he needs polishing. But
he rides with a cool head, he
saves ground on the inside at
all times and is a strong fin
isher. On top of that he is q
gentlemanly youngster and gets
along well with horsemen,'
Lang opined.
Ferraro, son of a plumbing
contractor, was born in Phila-
delphia April II, 1943. He had
considered going to Florida aft
er the Pimlico meeting, but his
agent, Steve Vaonokis, talked
him into staying at this winter
meeting.
1t turned out to be a smart
move.
Ferraro has an excellent shot
at the riding championship
here and If he wins 1t the title
will serve as a fine talking
point for VaonokiS when he and
Ferraro move on to Bowie,
which opens February g..
Under Maryland'S new ap-
prentice rules, Ferraro will get
a seven-pound allowance until
his 30th victory. Chances are
he will have passed this mark
when he checks into Bowie, but
he still will enjoy the valuable
five-pound allowance until the
late fall of 1862, the anniver-
Sary date of his initial triumph.
It was at Pimlico last No

the mile-poSt which all Jockeys
never forget. He came home
with his first winner-Velvet
Bows-wearing the silks of the
Turf-Paddock Stable. His vic
tory was not entirely unpre-
dicted.
Ferraro had been preparing
for it for more than two years.
He quit high school after fin
ishing the 10th grade and had
ridden about rs horses under
silks before winning a race. The
youngster credits Trainer Del
Carroll with schooling him in
many of the riding funda-
mentals.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26 (AP) -
The oldest, youngest and high
est-priced rockies in a ma
jor league spring training camp
will report to Fort Myers,
Fla, next month seeking a var
sity berth with the Pittsburgh
Pirates.
No one knows fo2 sure the
exact age of Diomedes Olivo,
the relief pitcher from the Do
minican Republic. The Pirates
roster lists him as being born
January %, 1920, but adds pro-
tectively, in parenthesis, I'VE
think" The best guess is that
the slow-moving, hard-throw-
ing lefthander is crowding As.
Age Notwithstanding, Olivo,
figures to help the Pirates,
based on his relief record last
year with Columbus, where he
won II of 18 decisions, posted
a league-leading 2.01 earned
run average and was the class
AAA leagues most valuable
pitcher.
Jerry Lee May. a strapping
6-foot-2, 190-pound catcher
from Staunton, Va, is the baby
of the club. He was born De-
cember IA, 1943, and in his
first professional year batted
1928 with II home runs and
SO runs batted in for 81 games
at Kingsport.
Batted Only .22O
The youngster sure to at
tract a great deal of atten-
tion is Bob Bailey. the cele-
brated bonus baby of last sum-
mer. who was given a reported
$175,000 the day after he grad
uated from Long Beach (CalifO
High. The 19-year-old short
stop had a disappointing first
season in Pittsburgh's chain at
Asheville. He batted only .22O
and hit nine home runs with
81 RBI in rs games.
The Pirates, light on out
fielders, will be paying extra
attention to new comers Don
Clendenon and Howie Goss. AL

up at Pittsburgh spring train

For Right and Left-HanderS
A California reader has writ
ten to ask if a left-handed
bowler should use the same
spare and split angles as a
right-hander.
My answer is a definite yes.
The drawing shows a right
handler shooting at the 10-pin
from a left-side angle. The
southpaw, too, should shoot
this spare from the left. And
he should shoot left-side spares
from the right, also.
Naturally, a southpaw won't
have as much trouble with the
10-pin as a right-hander, but
he'll have more trouble with
the Z.
1t all evens up.

Certainly, or so it strikes us,
horse-trading approach to this matter
can hardly be justified. The issue of
whether or not we should transmit nu-
clear data to the French, within the
limits of our own law, should be decided,
we think, solely on the merits of the
arguments pro and con, as confined to
the military or security aspects of the
question. In that sense, the Common
Market is non-germane to the discus
sion and ought to have no bearing on it.
In short, our atomic-hydrogen know

Mass Attack on Crime

When Oliver Gasch was United
States Attorney for the District of Co
lumbia he commented to his law
enforcement colleagues that citizens who
are quick to blame police, prosecutors
or judges for crime conditions in Wash
ington are also, too often, reluctant to
participate in community efforts to
combat causes of crime. He commended,
rightly, that the war on lawlessneSS
should be joint responsibility of the
citizens and the agencies of law en-
forcement.
1t is not surprising, therefore, that
Mr.. GaSch acceded to the Commissioners
request that he become co-chairman,
with DR.. James M. Nabrit, jr., president
Of Howard University, of the Commits
SionerS' Crime Council, which plans to
mobilize civic interest and cooperation
in a comprehensive, about drive on
crime. Instead of standing back and
voicing criticism of police and other
agencies, the council hopes to arouse
community support for law enforce
ment in general and for crime preven-
ton in particular. This, then, will be
a teamwork program that holds great
promise for peace and order in the
Nations Capital.
The representative nature of the
council, comprising as it does members
of many civic and business organiza-
tionS, Negro and white, indicates the
broad approach which the council will
take to solution of the city's problems
of juvenile and adult delinquency. 1t
is worthy of note that the proposal for
such an approach was made by the
District of Columbia Chamber of Com
merce, which has evidenced growing
concern with the crime situation here
While details of the program are
yet to be worked out, the intention
Of the council Is to hold series of
meetings in the various police precincts,
with citizens and reinforcement Of
ficialS joining in frank discussions re-
garding the reasons for increased de-
linquency and crime and plans for
combating them. The neighborhood
meetings are expected to pinpoint
trouble centers and causes and to result
in definite plans for dealing with them,
both through official and unofficial
processes. This is the sort of community
anti-crime teamwork that long has been
needed IN Washington. We commend
the Commissioners and all who had a
part in launching what we hope will
be an effective crusade against lawleSS-
ness in our city.

Bio Trade Bill Victory

The Kennedy administration has
won an important first battle in the
House Ways and Means Committee vote
of approval on the So-called trade ex-
pansion act.
For despite an impending fight on
the House floor, the bipartisan support
given the measure in the final commit
tee vote Fifteen Democrats plus five
Republicans versus five Republicans)
indicates that the administration COM
mandS safe margin for passage in that
chamber. This prospect will be further
improved If the Rules Committee, as
expected, reports out the bill under the
no-amendment procedure that is Gus
tomary for tax and tariff legislation.
The only threats in that case would be
an outright vote against the measure or
passage of motion to recommit, neither
of which is likely.
There is greater danger, no doubt,
in the Senate-both in committee and
on the floor-where the privilege of
offering amendments, as we'll as of
debate, normally is unrestricted. Even
so, in public education" and in pres
entation of its arguments to the knowl-
edgeable Ways and Means Committee,
the administration has built up a con-
vincing case It is that the President
should have greater authority, updated
to the times and changing conditions
of free world trade competition, to ne
gotiate the reciprocal lowering of inter-
national commercial barriers. The leg
iSlation provides this authority-for
whole categories of goods rather than
on the item-by- Item basis now allowed,
and in some cases for complete removal
of tariffs. A particular objective is to
strengthen the Presidents hand in bar
gaining with the European Common
Market which is both major customer
and a major competitor in this era of
world trade.
In a sense, this is pioneering leg
iSlation and not lacking in its potential
risks to some Segments of American
industry and labor It's basic purpose,
however, is to ease the way to greater
world trade and to improve our leader
ship position in such commerce. AS
times have changed, we can neither
stand still with a 30-year-old tariff
negotiating formula nor retreat into
protectionism.

Tit for Tat

There are two things that might
be said about the recent exchange be-
tween the President of the United States
and the president of the American Med
ical Association. 1t has had no real
relevancy to the serious debate over
medical care for the aged. And, second,
1t has not been an edifying spectacle
An ANA spokesman recently called
the King-Anderson bill for medical care
a cruel hoax" This evidently got under
President KennedyS skin. For at his
May % press conference he said: 1.-THE
ANA was one of the chief opponents of
the Social Security System in the '3Os.
The words "a cruel hoax were used
against the Social Security System at
that time as they use it today"
This is fine-print language, which
has to be read with some care. Mr..
Kennedy didn't quite say that the ANA,
in the '3OS, had been chief opponent of
Social Security and had called it cruel
hoax. But many people, including ANA
President Larson, read this meaning
into the statement.
In letter released to the press be-
fore it reached the White House, DR..
Larson accused the President of not
stating the truth about the ANA po-
Sition. In letter released to the press
before it reached DR.. Larson, Mr.. Ken
nedy posed series of questions. Their
essence is that the ANA, if it didn't
say in the '30S that Social Security was
a cruel hoax, probably thought it.
1t seems to us that this tit-for-tat
exchange has gone far enough. Both
men, we feel sure, have more important
things to do.

Not for Bargaining

According to reports from Paris,
General James M. Gavin, our AmbaS-
sador to France, is planning to fly here
within the next few days to urge upon
President Kennedy a proposal that
would amount to kind of Franco
American horse trade-but one of dubi-
Gus wisdom.
The propoSal-again according to
reports-iS simply this: ~ That the
United States hand over to the French
certain types of information that would
help them speed up their development
and production of nuclear weapons And
(2) that the French, in exchange for
such aid, use their influence to see to
it that the European Economic Com
munity-the Common Market-doeS not
raise discriminatory or prohibitively
high tariff barriers against American
exports to Western Europe.
Ambassador Gavin is said to be
genuinely worried by the possibility that
such barriers may materialize and have
seriously adverse effect on our national
economy. That is what accounts for
his repeatedly strong advocacy of the
idea of having. Washington work out a
quid-pro-quo deal (huclear data for
firm assurances as regards the Common
Market) with President de Gaulles
government in Paris. This idea, more
over, has considerable backing in the
Pentagon, where some influential figures
feel that Frances atomic progress can
be Of great value to the entire Western
alliance.
Nevertheless, it seems to us to be
altogether unWiSe to bargain with our
atomic hydrogen know-how in an effort
to get French guarantees of a sort de-
signed to keep the Common Market

basis. Up to now both the President and

Signs Are Making Slaves of Us All

Your editorial on Signs of
the Times in The Sunday
Star does you, and all of us,
much credit. 1 wish we all
deserved it. But we don't.
Actually, the jungle of traf-
fic signs tells us that our
morale is flabbifying fast as
we surrender more and ever
more of our personal re-
sponSibility to signs and
gadgets. all in the name of
"the larger good" "the gen.
eral welfare" the needs of
the total community" 1.-The
inexorably advancing tide of
world brotherhood, and to-
getherness. and do-gooding."
We feel less. and ever less
secure in making up our own
minds as to when to cross
the street, when to go from
here to there, how fast to
go. So the sign flashes "go"
and we go, hoping for the
best. The sign says stop"
and we stop. Some of these
things are necessar of
course, but at the rate they
are proliferating, at the same
rate we are surrendering this
or that or the other right of
self determination.
For traffic lights, green,
red, yellow, walk. don't wal,

her to fulfill her Washington

ness had compelled her to
cancel the rest of her sea-
sons tour. .
We give prominent billing
to promoters of sporting
events, theatrical produc-
tions, and other affairs. I
think this credit line to
Patrick Hayes for under
writing the Serkin program,
as well as other unique mu-
steal events, is equally in
order.
