iSh student bodies which are still

Religious Leader of the Tallahas-
see and Gainesville Communities
called upon to play in this bloody
tragedy. They know only too well
that life-plans, built up over many
years of arduous academic prep
aration, may be smashed to bits
upon the altar of sacrifice.
In a spirit begotten neither from
mockery nor despair, these young
people echo in their hearts the
motto of the ancient Roman glad
iators, I'VE, who are about to
die, salute you!" There is, in their
souls, no sense of the dramatic,
no illusion concerning the glory
of war, no desire to kill or to be
killed. But there is within them
a grim determination to do the
job that has to be done, no matter
what that may be. There is with
in them a deadly seriousness, a
saying little and thinking much,
that bodies no good for those who
would destroy our way Of life and
us.
I firmly believe that the youth
of this generation is more spirit
ually minded than its elders and
that today, as we look forward
to the year SOL, the traditional
position of Moses and Joshua has
been reversed. Today it is youth
whose faith is mistaken, whose
vision is unclouded, whose cour-
age and optimism are without
blemish. Today, it is Joshua who
is pleading with Moses, "Chazak
v'or,o+~" "Pn etrnnO and of good

GOOD WILL
IN ACTION


OF the different creeds really knew
each others religions,
The first of these, the Institute
OF Interdenominational Studies,
founded at the Jewish Theological
Seminary of America, brought to-
gether more than 200 Catholic,
Protestant and Jewish theologians
for weekly studies of their COM
mon spheres of action, with dis
tinquished Christian and Jewish
scholars acting as lecturers. At
the same time several hundred
Protestant, Catholic and Jewish
women, meeting alternately in a
synagogue, Protestant church
and Catholic church, attended a
series of three meetings, sponsored
by the women's committee of the
National Conference of Christians
and Jews, at which the services,
customs and worship of the three
faiths were explained and studied.
Two other notable examples in
this field deserve mention. One is
the interesting experiment of the
Commission on American Citizen
ship of the Catholic University of
America. AS part of it's program
for the building of American cit
iZenShip, this commission has been
preparing articles and radio dra-
mas emphasizing the historic good
will relations between Catholics
and mont Catholics in the United
States. This material has been
given wide currency in publica-
tiOns reaching hundreds of thou
sands of children in Catholic par
Ochial schools. In recent issue
of the Young Catholic Messenger
there appeared sketch based on
the fact that Jewish merchant
in Niagara Falls, N. ", had saved
Niagara University, a Catholic
college, from losing it's property
through foreclosure. The other
concerns the Hillel Foundations,
the religious, cultural and social
service centerS for Jewish students
maintained on many American
college campuses by B'nai Birth.
The classes in religion, Biblical
literature and Jewish history at
these foundations are open to jew
and nOn-JeW alike. Recently, the
director of the HilIel Foundation
at the University of Illinois re-
ceived a letter from a young Lu-
theran girl who had taken all the
HilIeI courses. Her qualifications
for a teachers license were salts
factory, but the superintendent of
schools required a character refer
ence from her pastor. She wrote to
he HiIlel director for this charac-
er reference, since, in the largest
sense, he was her pastor, having
aught her all she had ever had in
he field of religious education.
These incidents are but samp-
.ings of the many that have come
to public attention in the last
year and the thousands more that
went unnoticed. During these
months hate and prejudice have
mad their innings but obviously
good will tn t was something
more than just pious platitudes
hit harder. Singly such episodes
may mean much or little but col
lectively they are proof beyond
doubt that the ordinary folks in
America, the people who make
America what it is, and who be-
lieve in democracy and all that it
represents, retain, as an integral
part of their way of life, the de-
cent, kindly, humanitarian and
deep rooted religious instincts and
sentiments, despite all propaganda
istic attempts to make them 9TH

Wallace Wade is rushing defensive
preparations so.

are only a few names selected al
random-but those names are known
all over the football world.
The Blue Devils start off against
some of the country's best players
in the opening game in Duke stadium
with V. M. l. week from Saturday.
The Cadets list is headed by
AbiSha (Bosh) Pritchard, the boy
with funny name but fancy reputa-
ton. On the V. NJ. l. cast are also
Nelson Catlett, Pritchard's running
mate and no small star himself, and
Ripper Walker, a tackle converted
to blocking back and called 4 "find."
Then will come Tennessee with a
whole team of stars. Stars are SO
plentiful at Tennessee that the Vols
two, guards-Bob Suffridge and Ed
MolinSki will wage personal bat
tie for all-American honors. It is
possible that the two boys will get
both posts. Then there's Bob FoXN,
termed by Major Bob Neyland as the
greatest athlete he has ever seen,
who is slated to be the Vols tail
back this season. Also at Tennessee
are tackle Marshall Shires and Half
back Johnny (Gone-With-thc-Wind)
Butler among others.

0 The baby should have regular
exercises just as much or more so
than an adult. The time to begin
baby's systematic exercise is about
the end of the third month when
the eyes have developed so that he
can begin to perceive objects.
As with adults exercises, psy-
chology holds that the best form
. of exercise for the baby is that
which centers the interest on
something else but the exercise
some sort of game.
A light inflated ball is the toy
that will for the longest space of
time give the baby the most eXer-
else. He is no different from the
adult in that cither-a E"'l is the
basis of all games, and red is the
color-still similar to sound adult
custom. Red in movement will fas-
cinate any human being and baby

Ball Games To Play
With Baby

can be begun when the other exer-
cises have strengthened the baby
so that he can make a reasonably
successful attempt to sit up. Tie a
string between two chairs put
back to back, and from the middle
suspend a ball. Put the baby on
his blankets between the chairs
and set the ball to swinging. When
the baby finds out that he can give
that thing a kick, the game begins.
The future fullback may get so in
terested in this game that mother
will have to stop him before it be-
comes too eXhausting.
Team Work
Ball rolling or nursery floor ten
mis- demands two players, and
mother is elected for the position
of number two. This exercise, Of
course, comes later-six to eight
months. Gradually gains will be
made in the ability to direct move
ments - the advantage of any
game-and any gain of this kind
augments the development of the
nervous system.
The baby does not need food aft
er exercise. In fact, better not, so
the exercise period should be ar
ranged between feeding sched-
ules. Baby may cry little after
exercise from a natural healthy
fatigue, but that does not mean he
is hungry.

That's little weak as an effort to
contribute to nursery rhymes, but
the best l can do this morning.
For Stretching
A red balloon tied to the baby's
wrist will keep its interest up in
the jerks and swings Of the arms
and legs and the body stretching
that are the best form of baby's
exercises.
