WHY | AM A CATHOLIC
BY GHbert Keith Chestertou

Il am Catholic because Catholicism is true, ,"
is Mr.. Chesterton's answer. He means that
the Church is logical, thinking engine hay
ing access to all knowledge and comprising
all knowledge. There is no new thing under
the sun-to the Church. 1t has always known
1t adj always know. Around science, evolu
ton, what-not, stands the all-embracing
knowledge of Rome. This is the first of

scots, together with a non-belever pref
ace to the whole series appears this month
in Bishop William T. Manning's Call to
Christian Unity
The FUrURE OF CHRISTIANITY, by William
Ralph Inge, Dean of ST. Paul's. Dean
Inge's pronouncement assures America
that the future religion will be Christian,
not some other faith, and that it will be
religion of Jesus, rather than a religion
sboxt Him. 1t will express the religious
philosophy of those who are enormously
called Modernists, enormously because
their beliefs are as old as Christianity
itself. Obviously this true religion will
not convert the world at large. Neither is
there cause to fear that the light kindled in
Galilee will ever be put out. Dean Inge
throws down challenge which cannot be
ignored. Either you will intellectually

Any base ball pitchers would very
likely consider that they were obtain
ing high-class support from two young
men of the skill and alertness of
Schalk and Ruel for catchers. There
have not been two modern catchers
better versed in the game.
Kelly without doubt is the best
right-hand first baseman of the pres
ent time and little by little he has
grown into one of the most valuable
players in base ball
No second baseman can pivot bet
ter than Harris, and take him by and
large he is the most promising of the
crop developed since 1900. There are
other second basemen who can do
things as we'll as he can, and some
who can do some things better, but
he has an all-around knowledge of the
needs of the position. Eddie Collins
couldn't get on the team because he
Jumped from college to the Athletics.
Two years ago a man of experience
said that Pittsburgh had secured the
best shortstop in the United States in
Glenn Wright, and it looks that way.
Any one can see that Traynor is the
best third baseman. The player who
pushed him hardest in Association
days is Arthur Devlin.
There is nothing to be said about
the outfielders. A man who could go
to bat for a championship having
three such men as Cobb, Speaker and
Ruth would have nothing to worry
about.
For utility outfielder there might be
George Burns, once of the Giants.
or Ed J. Roush of Cincinnati. For
utility infielder, Tuck Turner, once of
Cleveland, who would play anywhere,
would be ideal
There is one thing about this team
that would bring about the most un-
usual development in base ball Pre-
sumo that it may need a manager.
For that position Rogers Hornsby is
dominated. In addition to managing
he can play every position on the field
except those of pitcher and catcher.
He has tried all the infield jobs and is
capable of taking care of all of the
outfield jobs. Thus he would combine
the job of manager with that of the
greatest hitting utility player in his
tory.
Any of the fans who would prefer
90 see him at second rather than Har-
MS can swap about and make Harris
manager and Hornsby second base
