City and State all-star football

"I believe it is one of the best
balanced city squads I have
seen," Scarff said. Pete Susick,
head man for the Staters, was
more cautious saying, "they've
been looking a lot better the past
few days."

Barber Shatters
Course Record
Montreal U.R) The rest' of
the field forgot about par today
and tried to beat Jerry Barber,
a determined little golfer from
La Canada, Calif., as the $25,000
LaBatt open went into the sec
ond round at the Summerlea
Golf club here.
Barber led the way with his
six-under-par 64, breaking all
records on the par 70 Lakeshore
course. Thirty golfers, however,
either broke or equalled the par
for the 6,515 foot course which
has a par 36 for the first nine
and a 34 for the second.
The five-foot, five-inch 137-
pound Barber stripped two
strokes off the competitive
course record of 66 held by Mon-
treals Jerry Proulx since the
1942 open..

Benson Unshaken
By Farmers' Vote
On Wheal Quotas
Washington U.R) Secretary
of Agriculture Exra T. Benson's
opposition to high farm price
supports' has not been shaken by
last week's -referendum in which
wheat farmers overwhelmingly
endorsed high supports for 1954,
an aide said today.
The statement followed
warning from Sen. Milton R. i
Young. (RN.D.), that "if Secre
tary Benson sticks by his prev
ious policy pronouncements in
spite . of the wheat vote, there
will be no hope fqr the Repub
licans winning the farm vote in
1954 elections."
Hailed As Proof
Young and other farm bloc
legislators from the Midwest and
South hailed the wheat verdict
as proof that farmers generally
want high supports. They noted
that 87.2 per cent of the farmers
participating voted for high sup-'
ports coupled with production
controls. . -
If fewer than two-thirds of the
farmers voting last Friday had
approved controls, they would
have been dropped and price
supports would have dropped
from 90 per cent of the "fair
earning power" parity level to
50 per cent.
Verdict Expected
Benson said he had expected
the verdict and called it "a wise
decision ... in the best interests
of the farmers."
An aide made it clear today,
however, that Benson was speak
ing only about 1954 wheat. This
spokesman said there is "no
change at all" in Benson's long
range belief that high supports
are bad for farmers "because
they encourage over-production
and maintain the inefficient producer."
