President Finds Pebble Beach
Golf Course Tough One To Play
Pebble Beach, Calif. (U.PJ utive took a two-over-par six on National Golf club, and Charles
Barking sea lions, foggy wea
ther and erratic iron shots com
bined Saturday to give President
Eisenhower a hard time of it on
the golf course.
The chief executive summed
up his feelings as. he hit his first
drive high in the air from the
first tee of the Cypress Point
course beside the Pacific ocean.
"That," said the President,
"was a louse."
Embarking on his second full
18-hole round since his June 9

Mr. Eisenhower's doctor, Maj.
Gen. Howard Mcc. Snyder, said
the chief executive stood up well
under his first round which he
played yesterday.
"He's looking right as far as
I can see," Snyder said. "He
came in without being fatigued
after 18 holes Friday and that is
all right."
The President looked sleepy-
eyed as he emerged from the
residential section of the Cypress
Point clubhouse shortly after 9
a.m. While waiting for his four
some to assemble, he hit a num
ber of practice shots while his
caddy, Turk Archdeacon, re
trieved the balls.
As the President tried a num
ber of different clubs, he kept up
a running commentary on his
golf and the local surroundings.
At one point, he stretched out
his arms and said to his press
secretary, James C. Hagerty,
"one day like this and you're
full of joints."
Sea Lions Chatter
On the rocks offshore sea lions
kept up a noisy chatter and a
light mist, known locally as
"high fog," drifted down on the
chief executive who wore a buff
colored cap, two-tone tan sports
shirt, a tan sweater and slacks.
"Did you notice," he said to
Hagerty, "how the sea lions bark
when you start to hit?"
The President's game was so
bad Friday that he could laugh
about it Saturday.
"I hit a ball into a tree Friday
on the 17th hole and it never
came down," he said. "The cad
dy took one look and just got
out another ball and dropped it
down."
He also recalled somewhat
ruefully that on the eighth hole
Friday, he tried repeatedly with-

McKay Holds High
Republican Hopes
Portland (U.R) Douglas Mc
Kay, former secretary of inter
ior who is seeking the Senate
seat held by Democrat Wayne
Morse, arrived from the Repub
lican national convention Friday
with words of praise for the
GOP ticket and hopes for elec
tion of a Republican congress.
McKay, who faces the tough
est battle of his long political
career in trying to unseat the
former Republican called the
Eisenhower-Nixon team "great."
"It couldn't be better," he
said.
McKay said that in Oregon
"we are faced with a two-pronged
referendum on President Eis
enhower. We must not jonly re
elect Ike and Dick; we must also
elect a Republican Congress.
Only with the support of a Re
publican congress can they do
the whole job for all the people,
and continue the great work that
has been started over the past
three and one-half years."

Delaware Democrat
Says Federal Tax
Reduction Possible
Washington (U.R) Sen. J.
Allen Frear, Jr., (D-Del.) said
Saturday that congress can and
should cut taxes next year.
Frear, a member of both the
Senate's Tax - Writing Finance,
committee and Banking commit
tee advocated a reduction in per
sonal. income taxes as a means of
achieving full employment and
raising purchasing power.
These views are counter to
those expressed earlier by Sen.
Harry F. Byrd (D-Va.) Finance
committee chairman. Byrd cau
tioned that a tax cut in .the near
future would be dangerous be
cause the government is on a
"spending spree."
Cut for Working People
Frear told reporters "I think
it is possible to cut taxes next
year. We can give the working
people a reduction."
He said a tax cut would put
more money in circulation and
thus "keep the purchasing power
high" and create more jobs.
"The purchasing power of the
dollar has been reduced, regard
less of what was said at the Re
publican National convention in
San Francisco last week," Frear
said. "The dollar is rapidly bi
coming unstabilized.
Can Create Employment
"Full employment is the an
swer. I believe we can create it
by reducing personal income tax
es, either through a rate cut or
a boost in exemptions."

Although no information was
available as to the source of th.
suspected ragweed pollen, the
plant is known to have gained a
foothold in several Oregon
counties in recent years. A con
trol act was passed by the 1953
session of the state legislature,
but no funds have ever been au
thorized to make the program
