What no one knows is that the president issues the pardon only after receiving enormous pressure from the CIA. A Painted House The hill people and the Mexicans arrived on the same day. It was a Wednesday, early in September, 1952. The Cardinals were five games behind the Dodgers with three weeks to go, and the season looked hopeless.
