To Make Reports
After the hearings are held

Governor Charges
Dishonest InnuendC
By PAUL HOPE
Star Staff Writer

!
An angry Gov. Tawes has
branded George P. Mahoney's
campaign against him as an
"attack which is built entirely
upon dishonest innuendo, char
acter assassination and un-
vanished lies"
In the hardest-hitting speech
to date of his reelection cam
paign the Governor said he fell
compelled to speak out against
a type of political campaign
which is an insult to all of tht
people of Maryland" His com
ments drew swift retaliation
from Mr.. Mahoney and from
w. G. Bennett Grain, anothei
contender for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination.
I'VE are seeing a man SC
hungry for public office that
he doesn't hesitate to use doc
tored film on his television
programs, and he doesn't hesi-
tate to tell lies not only about
me, but about my son as well,
the Governor said, without
mentioning Mr.. Mahoney by
name. Press releases from
Tawes headquarters, however
specified that it was the Ma
honey campaign the Governor
was talking about.
". I am disgusted with
trying to fight an opponent
whom the slick New York po'
litical advertising agencies are
trying to sell to the people OF
Maryland like a bar of SOAP y
Gov. Tawes said.
Defends S&L Record
The Governor defended hi
record on the savings and loar
issue. It is on savings and loar
matters that Mr.. Mahoney ha!
made his strongest attack!
against Gov. TaweS in his figh
for the Democratic guberna'
torial nomination.
Gov Tawes specifically at
tackled a pre-taped Malone!
television appearance, cancelet
by WBAL-TV in Baltimore ant
later shown by WRC-TV il
Washington.
This is the first time in tn
history of Maryland polite
that a candidates announces
broadcast was barred at the las
minute" on the ground it nigh
have contained libelous state
mentS, Gov. TaweS said.
Cites Reasons
A spokesman for WBAL hat
said such statements nigh
have been made by some per
sons appearing on the show VIII
were not candidates. The pro
gram dealt with savings an
loan failures.
Mr.. Mahoney meanwhile pro
tested the rejection of his tele
vision program to the Fedora
Communications Commission.
After Gov. Tawes' appear
ance on television last nigh
Mr.. Grain said the Governo
failed to include a positiv
statement on behalf of depos1
tors who suffered because {
these failures.
And MIR. Mahoney accuse
the Governor of having tried I
bypass his part in the saving
and loan issue.
"The fact is that not or
single savings and loan rack
eteer has yet been convicted b
the Tawes administration" M
Mahoney said.
Just before the latest bite
exchange in the savings an
loan issue, a league which sal
it represents "old line" saving
and loan associations wit
half of the assets of the busi
ness in Maryland asked can
didates for office not to max

friend.
FOR ON THAT spring day
at Laurel, the good doctor
touted the Rambler, and the
Rambler came out $3.50
ahead after three races. If
DR.. Hammond has a secret,
the Rambler was not cut in.
DR.. Hammond admits he
does not discount k.
("I consider that profanity.
You can't discount luck.")
But DR.. Hammond indicates
horse betting is a matter OF
hard work. He is a thorough
student of the horses.
You figure out what the
handicapperS have to say
and then you see things that
won't appear in an ordinary
handicap. What the horse
did in the same period last
, year, added to your khowl-
edge of the particular course
for example"
DR.. Hammond warmed up
for the races that day by
holding a seminar for women
racing fans. He dropped phi
losopher Spinoza into his
text and one woman said
later, II thought he was
talking about some jockey
He also swapped horse
stories with friends. One was
about this trainer named
Sam Hildreth, wanted by the
FBI for doctoring horses,
They trailed him to a drug
store where he bought some
pills and then the FBI men
closed in and said, OK, Sam,
we've got you"
Sam said, "whatcha mean?
This is for my bronchial
condition"
He then asked the phar-
macist for a glass of water
and downed it and the pills
Nothing happened to Sam
and the FBI men departed
Then Sam turned to the
pharmacist and said, "ys
better grab a holt of me. I'm
gonna do 6 furlongs in 1:09.'
AND THEN 1T WAS time
for more important matters
With the GOODNESS OF a mar
who's done this thing before
DR.. Hammond put his money
on his daily double, The
Rambler followed with a pail
of well-worn 81 bills.
To be on the safe side, the
bet was covered with 81 tt
place on Mayaca (an unex'
planned tip from DR.. Ham
mond). The first choice, Arc
tic Sweep, came in third, bu
Mayaca did place second ane
paid $4.80, so the Rambler
was ahead 80 cents.
In the second race, W.
stayed with Ecco Donna
especially after DR.. Ham
tnond took a look at her anc
decided she was pretty fit
She was. She won and pai'
$1,000, so the Rambler pock
eted $3.50 on that race. Dl
Hammond's third race choic
unfortunately faded, but tn
horse he suggested betting t
show came in second. H
paid S4.20 to show so tn
Rambler came out 20 cent
ahead, but then reluctantl
had to leave.
However, not before d.

who are.

Stain Digesfer Did you know

Stain Digesfer Did you know
there is a product that will actu-
ally digest certain stains, much
as food is digested? Professional
fabric care experts use it to COM
bat stubborn stains containing
protein. The engines in the SUBJ
stance break up the proteins and
allow them to be washed away.
If you want to try a similar
treatment at home, buy some
powdered pepsin from the drug
store, mix a teaspoonful in a
basin of warm water and apply
to the spot. Anywhere from half
an hour to a couple Of hours
later, depending on the stubborn
ness of the stain, the spot usu-
ally can be washed out in clear
warm water. This treatment is
also very effective in removing
stubborn perspiration stains and
odors.
Fabric SOtfeners = These are
among the newer fabric care
products on the market. What
they actually do is give the fab
ric coating so the iron glides
over the surface more easily.
They also are useful in reducing,
in synthetics, the static electric
ity that causes clinging. If you
use fabric softener, be sure to
put it in the final rinse water
If mixed with soap it is ineffec.
tive.
Tips and Tricks-When sewing
a button on an overcoat, put a
match between the button and
the fabric to provide adequate
room for buttoning. Just remove
the match when the sewing's
completed :. If your galoshes or
rubbers are a tight fit with Ger.
tain shoes, place pieces of wax
paper over the heels. The shoes
will slip in like magic and
strain on the overshoe will be
minimized Save old tooth
brushes for applying polish to
edges of shoe soles.
