Several Changes Made In
Faculty-List Published
Below
BUILDING IN READINESS
Large Enrolment Expected
Office Open Friday and
Saturday

The Sank Centre Public Schools
will open a week later this year
school opening on Monday, Sept
ember IA, at 8:45 a. m. Only the
first half of the day will be devot-
ed to school. Buses will be on hand
at HAS for the purpose of return
ing the route pupils to their homes.
The afternoon will be devoted to
program problems, faculty meeting,
and general preparation for the
coming school year.
Office hours will be from nine to
twelve and one to four, Friday and
Saturday of this week.
The school plant has been put in
readiness for the opening of school
by Mr.. Gray and Mr.. Klein.
Industrial
To meet the standards of the
State Department, occasioned by
the large enrolment in the Indus
trial Department, the present shop
has been enlarged. New up-to-date
and practical machinery will be in
stalled at the beginning of this
year. The room formerly occupied
by the Normal Department will be
used for Mechanical Drawing class
es. The old mechanical drawing
room was partioned off to render
a place for the department sup
plies, a paint rom, and print
shop. This last named room con-
tains the Ditto, Monograph and
Printing Machine.
Commercial Department
The enrolment in the CONNER
cial Department is 120 pupils, which
necessitated a shifting of the book
keeping and the tipping room. It
will be necessary to have thirty
typewriters to handle the enroll
ment. This being eight more mach
ines than the present number.
Senior High Improvements
The Senior High building has
been revamped and changed many
times to take care Of the steadily
increasing enrolment. The build
ing when erected in 1912 provided
for 145 pupils, maximum. One can
readily see the crowded housing
problem when the present enroll
ment is over 200 with every indica-
ton that the enrolment will reach
225 for this year.
Faculty Personnel
There are changes in the teach
ing personnel of the faculty. Ele-
mentary grades:

GOVERNOR
HAS AIDED
INSURANCE

Roy L. Davis, state chairman o
the committee, in announcing the
meeting at the Hotel Sherman, is
sued the following statement:
"Four years ago, Henry Hor-
ner, as candidate for Gov
ernor, promised the state OF
Illinois sound and impartial adj
ministration of insurance af-
fairs. We helped elect Govern
or Horner. One of the first
things we requested Of him
was the cleaning up of the
State Insurance Department
which was Immediately done.
Now Illinois stands preemi-
nently among all other states
as model in insurance admin
istFation. The insurance de-
partment, until Governor Hor-
ner's election, had occupied
subordinate position in all pre-
yious Governors C a b inc t s.
Many unhealthy practices and
abuses had been permitted to
creep into the administration
of the insurance laws, result
ing in the loss of millions of
dollars to the policy holders of
this state.

Governor Henry Horner has been
filling n busy schedule in his cam
paiun' for reelection. His final time
in the drive is being spent in Cook
County, and he is making from ten
to twenty appearances daily. Where
ever he goes he is received with
rousing receptions. This is an evil
dence of the great popularity he
is enjoying. Because the Governor
has stood for all classes and all
groups and not for any particular
class or group and because he con-
ceived and caused the enactment
of legislation which brought the
state through great crisis, he has
been endorsed by the Swedish
American Democratic club, made
up of leading Swedish groups of
Cook county. Lawrence j. FenIon,
past commander of the American
Legion in Cook County, has warm
iy endorsed the candidacy of Gov

veterans to vote for him. Mr.. Fen

stituted what was later nationally
known as the "Horner Plan" by
which the estates of deceased and
incompetent veterans were admin
istercd without any costs, trustees
fees or attorneys fees being charg-
ed to the veterans families. That
plan was adopted in many states.
The Railway Employees L b o r
Club, made up of leaders in va
rous branches of railway service,

record in behalf of labor. Else

CATHOLIC CHURCH
FACES THE ISSUE

The program of the Catho-
lie Church faces the problem
of human needs in a straight
forward way. In 1881, P o p G
Plus XII, issued his Encycli-
cal Letter on demonstrating
the Social Order in which
he declared, Goods sufficient
to supply all needs -. to up
lift men to that higher level
of prosperity and C u | t u e
which. provided it be used
with prudence. is not only no
hindrance but is of singular
help to virtue" Some folks
have been taught to believe
that pauperism and destitu-
ton are necessary to Christi
| anity or to virtue. Certainly
nothing seems further from
the fact. The church, whose
membership consists of fam
lies, with homes, education,
clothing, adequate food and
the like, has a greater appeal
for a following t h a n the
church whose membership
can't feed the living or bury
the dead. The good things of
life don't come to the lazy
and lifeless. The Christian
that would have them, must
| fight if he would win"
| AMERICA: A CHRIS
TIAN NATION
! America processes to be a
Christian nation. The pre-
cepts of Christianity guided
and sustained the first colon
lists that inhabited our land,
and secured them in their dali
ly lives before there was any
thought of nationhood. The
principles of Christianity
made the Constitution Of the
United States possible. T h e
first sentence of that docu-
ment declares as it's purpose
the formation of ga more per-
feet union, establish justice,
insure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common de-
Tense, promote the general
welfare, and secure the bless
ings of liberty" to the found
ers and to the generations to
come.

THERE is AN ANSWER
BY OSCAR BROWN
Chicago Attorney and Baptist
Layman

Some loyal church folks be-
lieve that the Church is some
thing separate a n d apart
from the affairs of life. They
decry the existence of sin"
in every avenue of life and
yet do little to destroy the
forces that threaten to de-
stroy the church. A fire in
10 Sc proximity OF the
church building will consume
the edifice unless positive, I'M
mediate action is taken to
extinguish it. Likewise the
fires of vice, corruption, greed
and exploitation, steadily en-
croaching upon the poor folks
of the church, will demoralize
the church and take it over
unless consecrated, intelh-
gent, vigorous leadership
comes to the rescue. Prob
lens of unemployment. poor
housing, child delinquency,
old age restitution, and SINH
lar misfortunes, are all prl-
mary fields of Christian actl-
witty. Here's where the poor
folks live. Jesus Christ spent
His time with these folks,
pointing out the way for a
more abundant life. In His
perfect prayer, he recognized
the need of things for physi-
cal well-being, as He said:
"Give us this day our daily
bread"

The miracle of feeding the
five thousand with five loaves

Jesus did not let those that
had the food go off to them
selves and eat it all and have
those who did not have food
to go hungry. He commanded
that all be seated and He

WHAT IS THE ROOSE-
WELT STANDARD
OR PATTERN?

The acts and deeds of Pres
ident Roosevelt are so famil-
lar to all intelligent folks that
it is unnecessary to recite
them here. But what does he
think? What is his attitude
toward the fundamentals of
Christian life? What is his
heart? How does the Presi-
dents program square with
the program of the church?
We know what he has done
and here is what he has to
say:
"Christianity was born in and
of an era notable for the great

years ago-an era of demarca-
ton between conquerors and

Cochrane Looking
Forward TO Another
World Championship

LAKE LAND, Fla, March 81. U.P)
Responsibility of managing
world championship baseball team
rests lightly upon the muScled
shoulders of Micky Cochrane, who
figures his Detroit Tigers to repeat,
but only after heck of a fight"
Catcher, manager and vice-presi-
dent of the Tigers, Michael said:
"Of course it's only a guess or
hunch, but I don't see how they
can stop us. We figure for better
pitching than we had last year.
We've got some rockies who may
give us a better infield, and we've
got Simmons for the outfield. Our
catching is at least as good as it
was. On form and with an average
set of breaks, we figure to come
through"
Cochrane makes but casual men,
ton of Don Ross, third baSeman
from Beaumont, but grapefruiterS
know this rookie is the hope of the
Tiger chief. If he lives up to
promise of excellent fielding, plus
near 300 hitting, Ross will supplant
the veteran Marvin owen at third.
Cochrane asks to be excused from
commenting upon the holdout tao
tics of Hank Greenberg, his slugging
first baSeman. While Hank waits
in New York, Cochrane watches the
efforts of Rudy York, a powerful
wrist hitting rookie from Beaumont.
Cochrane has few complaints on
pitching. Schoolboy Rowe, he says,
looks better than ever. So does Ed
on Auker. Between them they
scored 81 of the Tigers wins last
season. Al CroWder is an uncer-
tainty. He's complaining of a sore
arm.
Imperial Valley press., 1936-03-22

ond guesses everything. Nothing
satisfies him. If you lose game
when a sacrifice fails, he says the
manager should have told the bat
ter to swing. If you fail to Sacri-
flee he says the manager has lost
five games in three weeks by not
sacrificing. If you catch a night
train after a game, the player says
you should have caught day one,
and he won't ride on it. If it's a
day train, he wants a night one.
This same player asks the other
players their salaries, and then
tells them they're saps to work for
so little, and if they'll just listen
to him they'll get three times as
much.
Three weeks before the end of
the season, and with the club but
one game out of first place, the
player openly offers to bet his
teammates that the club won't win
the pennant. Also, he tells half
his mates that they won't work
with him, and deliberately mis-
plays ball so he'll lose the game.
"HOw would you like that kind
of player on your team? What
do you think it would do to the
morale. You're right. Itll ruin
it,"
I'VE tried treating him as. an
eccentric genius for four years."
he said, "and all we got was mis-
cry. Mind you, and not trying
to disparage his ability, he's
great pitcher. and tremendous
drawing card, and he's a very
valuable piece of baseball prop
erty. But get this-as valuable
q as he is, he's not worth more
than all our other players put
together. Right now, it's the
spirit of Dizzy Dean against the
spirit of the Cards, and 1 can't
tell you too strongly that we're
net going to kill our team spirit
for any individual.
After all, we won four pennants
in six years without Dizzy, and
only one in four years with him
That's not to say that he was to
blame for our winning but one in
four but ii does show that we can
get along fairly we'll without him"

BRADENTON, Fla, March 81.
UP)-Dizzy Dean may be the great
est pitcher in the world, and the
loss of the Arkansas cotton picker
might cost the team the 1896
championship, but the st. Louis
Cardinals are not going to rish
their future as team simply TO
satisfy a man they consider the
greatest malcontent in baseball to-
day.
That, in so many words, is what
Branch Hickey, general manager
Of the st. Louis club, told me last
night fifteen minutes after he had
talked to his dissatisfied pitcher by
telephone.
Our relationship" Rickey said,
sis the same as il was when l
wrote him the now famous letter
of Jan. 23. Our difference is not
one of money. You can forget
about that. The issue is a much
more important one than few
thousand dollars. Believe me when
l tell you that il involves not
only the career of Frank Frisch
as a manager, and the careers
of the other twenty eight play
ers on the club, but the future
of the Cardinals as a team. To
hire Dean as he now feels, and
as he felt last year, and the year
before, would be ruin0us."
What did Dizzy do last year
that makes you, and 1 suppose Mr..
Breadon and Frisch, too, feel the
way you do?" I asked.
Not only the three of u.s." Rick
ey answered ,"but every player on
the club as well. I don't mind
telling you that there isn't a man
on the ST. Louis team who wants
Dizzy as a teammate unless there
is a radical change in his attitude.
won't tell you exactly the things
he did, because that's hanging out
the teeam's linen too prominently.
But suppose 1 create a player and
give him actions that parallel
Deans of last year,"
1 said that would be all right,
figuring hickey would hit pretty
close to the truth.

plenty tough. Other leading teams
are Riesson and Jones of Yuma,
Shirk and Villa of Ell Centro and
Tara and partner of Brawley.
