Ex-Ballplayer Still Pitching Today, 74-year-old Hu bert "Tack" Wilson works as a technical assistant to slenior action groups in Houston. In retrospect, Wilson's present job assisting older persons seems a natural out growth of his earlier con cern for youngsters, which dates back to the early 30s when he was getting a band together and launching a musical career that would last for over 30 years. "1 came home from play-* ing in the band one night and 1 had a new, 14-year- old son' in the spare bed room," Wilson told a writer from The National Council on the Aging. Wilson's wife Rae had brought the boy home withO her after persuading a local judge to let the boy live with them rather than be sent to a state-run school for boys. Neither of the Wilsons knew anything about the traditional means for deal ing with juvenile delin quents. Their methods in cluded a lot of loving and a lot oftraining, unorthodox forms of treatment but ob viously successful: over the years they housed 32 differ- * ent boys and girls paroled to them by the courts. Before he turned to mu sic, Tack Wilson played pro fessional baseball for the Kansas City Monarchs, one of the legendary ail-black teams that ceased to exist when Jackie Robinson broke the race barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers. The fondest memory of his baseball days occurred in 1928, Wilson's first year with the Monarchs. "We were playing the Birmingham Barons and I was picked to pitch against Satchel Paige," Wilson said. "He was one of the greatest pitchers of all time, but I guess luck was with me that day. We ended up beating Satchel 9 to 5." Athletes didn't earn -to day's astronomical salaries back then and when the 1928 season ended Wilson - continued his education at Texas £ollcge. He also courted one of his teachers, who became his wife the fol lowing May. For the next three years Wilson^ played professional baseball with the Houston Black Buffaloes, hanging up his glove for good in 1933 to embark on his musical career. In 1964 Wilson's musical career also came to an end and in 1966 he took a job seeking out people 65 and older on Houston's impover ished north side who needed to apply for Medicare. Now he works with senior action groups, helping them to set up nutrition sites and running training programs for people who are going to work with the elderly. How does he compare it to his earlier work with the young? o "I've done a lot of things in my life*" Wilson said, "but I never had a more worth while job than I do now with this poverty program." When the "possibility of retiring from his present job was mentioned, Hubert Wil son said,. "I've worked all my life and there's no use stopping now. I thmk work prolongs your life and a per son should support himself just as long as he possibly can. That's just my philos ophy."

The national allotment represents the harvested acreage that will produce the quantity of corn, sorghum, and barley USDA estimates the U.S. will use domestically and for export during the 1977-78 marketing year. The national allotment does not represent a limit on the amount of feed grain that may be planted. It is used solely as a basis for making payments to producers should the market price fall below the established target prices or should growers qualify for disaster payments. In 1976, producers, respon ding to the marketplace rather than the allotment, planted about 112 million acres of corn, sorghum, and barley. USDA believes that in i977 producers will again study prices and demand in planning their farming operations and, therefore, the national allot ment and actual acres planted may not coincide. USDA also announced that it will not make deficiency payments on 1976-crop wheat and barley. Current legislation provides that deficiency payments shall be made to producers when the national weighted average price received by farmers for the first five months of the marketing year (June-October for wheat and barley) is less than the established target price for these crops.* The national weighted average price -received by farmers for the first five months of the 1976 marketing year was $3.08 per bushel for wheat and $2.41 per bushel for barley. These exceed the target prices of $2.29 and $1.28 for wheat and barley respectively.

His job is to produce carefully small, controlled snowslides to prevent devastating avalanches that could wreak terrible damage and claim lives. Going to church can be like that.- It can give you solutions to spiritual problems while they are small and manageable instead of letting them build up until they're too big to handle. Like snow on the side of a mountain, unfaced problems can swell into an avalanche of monu mental proportions and simply swallow up your useful life. The strength to face your day-to-day problems is wait ing for you right now -- at your church. Copyright 1976 Keisler Advertising Service. Strasburg.
