Location of proposed $40 million aquarium within easy

Interior Secretary Udal

north end of East Potomac
Park and would be reached by

Italy.
The bridge could be used by
pedestrians, it would have a
transportation service provided
by "minibus" and would con-
tain shops and stores.
Hams Point Site
Though still undecided, the
site for the fish study center
which seems to have the inside
track is an earlier one proposed
at the tip of Hains Point The
Interior Department said a site
would be available there.
East Potomac Park is a
nearly two-mile long crescent
shaped. island like body of land
lying between the Potomac
River and the Washington
Channel. 1t is controlled by
the National Park Service, and
is largely undeveloped.
At today's meeting Secretary
Udall emphasized that the
aquarium is designed to be self.
supporting, and said considera-
tion would be given to the
councils proposal that the
building be located at the
parks north end instead Of at
the southern tip.
In Line With Mall
A north end site would put
the aquarium almost directly
across from the waterfront at
Tenth street. almost in a direct
line with the proposed Tenth
Street Mall.
That ornamental thorough
fare will extend from the Smith
sonian Institution to a raised
overlook above the waterfront.
Construction of a Ponte Vec-
chic bridge. c. Yates Cook. ex-
ecutive director of the Federal
City Council, told the Aquarium
Advisory Board. would bring
the fish-study center within
easy reach Of millions of tour
lists.
Mr.. Cook added the council
believes the location at the
north end of East Potomac Park
would better help the aquarium
pay for itself.
Presenting the proposal. Mr..
Cook said he was appearing in
the absence from the city #
Samuel H. Kaufman, chair
man of the organizations Urban
Renewal Committee, and OF
Philip L. Graham. a member of
that committee.
Mr.. Cook said the north end
site was keyed to developing the
waterfront as a U-shaped boat
ing area for year-round use and
as a tourist attraction.
The Washington side Of the
channel would be developed for
commercial use and would pro-
vide slips for about 800 boats,
while the waters edge along the
park could provide 700 spaces
for boats.
I'VE think the accessibility
that would be provided to the
aquarium, and il it we're located
in the upper portion Of East
Potomac Park, coupled with its
proximity to Washington's most
famous tourist attractions,
would enhance activity and
would enliven the environment
on both sides of Washington
Channel" he said.
A decision on a site easily
accessible to pedestrians from
the Smithsonian and water
front areas would add greatly
to the economic impact Of the
redeveloped waterfront and ex-
pand the recreation and leis-
ure-time facilities that can be
provided Washingtonians and
visitors to the Federal City,"
Mr.. Cook said.
The site for the aquarium
espoused today by the Federal
City Council was proposed in
formally as a part OF a rede-
velopment plan for the chan
mel waterfront several months
ago.

AS THE TOUR STARTED
we heard the voice of Edward
r. Murrow, USIA director. It
is just as effective as 1t ever
was, and he said:
IF truth must be our
guide, then dreams must be
our goal. To the hunger of
those masses yearning to be
free and to learn, to this
sleeping giant now stirring,
that is so much of the world,
we shall say: We share your
Dreams
Then we all went on tele-
vision.
A little sign above the set
said we should watch the
screen for Some of the
people USIA describes e S
abroad"
1t took the group a little
time to realize it was look
ing at itself. The screen Is
not the sharpeSt in town.
But the point was carried.
We saw some movies of
anti-American riots next. A
teen-ager was throwing an
American flag off a balcony
and some Russians boys were
winding up and throwing
rocks or ink bottles at the
American Embassy in Mos
COW. They appeared to be
having some good, wild fun.
Sort of gives you the shivers.
The voice in the ear said
this often happens because
the Communists push the
uniformed ;. into violence
by means of false slogans"
and because America is mis-
understood. (Bet they also
pass out the ink bottles.)
We passed down several
corridors, through the offices
of the Voice of America. The
station is on "a hours a day
and visitors can see, and hear

casts going out in foreign
languages.

Perhaps the tour, which
lasts about 40 minutes, made
some impact on Peter, who
must have been about 4 or 5
years old. The voice of the
USIA was being fed into his
ear as well.
But when. the voice would
tell Peter what buttons to
push, he moved with great
speed and cunning, getting
there before everyone else.
Sometimes Peter would push
buttons before the voice told
him to.

Most schools in the eight

Rice and Arkansas were ex-

Coach Darrell Royal, athletic
director at Texas, said he
would allow any eligible stu
dent to try out for sports.

will fit in our program" Royal
said. "That is anyone who quail
flies accidentally and athleti-
cally."
Texas football team is unde-
feated this season and top
ranked nationally.
Frank Broyles, Arkansas
coach, said he was ''too busy
to comment on Texas action.
Gov. Orval FaubuS has said he
would oppose any move to in
tegrate athletics at the state
university.
Rice, a private university,
has a stipulation in its charter
which prohibits Negroes. A
spokesman, however, indicated
sports probably would be de-
segregated when, and if, the
school is integrated.

Bauer Manager

BULLETIN

BALTIMORE, Md. (UPD-
Hank Bauer, former New York
Yankee star who once piloted
the Kansas City Athletics, to-
day was named manager of the
Baltimore Orioles.
BALTIMORE CUPID The
Baltimore Orioles are expected
to identify their new manager
today.
A local newspaper predicted
Monday that Coach Hank Bauer
already has agreed to succeed
deposed Billy Hitchcock as the
Orioles pilot. The announcement
will be made today, the news
paper said.
Lee MacPhail, president Of the
Orioles, was still playing it Gag
ey.
Il don't know whether we will
have an announcement Tuesday
or not" he said. "We hope to
have a manager some time this
week."
Bauer, asked to comment on
the newspaper prediction, said,
anything like that has to come
from the front office" However,
he admitted he had been in con-
tact with MacPhail since last
Friday when the Orioles origin
ally had promised to name
Hitchcock's successor.
Bauer apparently was at least
the third man contacted about
the vacant post. Eddie Stanky,
former manager of the St. Louis
Cardinals, and Yogi Berra, the
New York Yankees new pilot,
revealed recently they had
turned down the job.
An outfielder with the Yam
KEGS for II years, Bauer took
over as manager Of the Kansas
City Athletics in the middle Of
the 1861 season and lasted
through the 1862 campaign when
he was succeeded by Eddie Lo-
pata.
