The Wildcats looked to be an
outstanding basket ball team.
They may not win a state cham
pionship, or for that matter any
championship, but they will be
classed as one of the best cage
teams in Ohio. Bill Craig's play
at center was most pleasing. The
big, ly-haired lad didn't score
from the field, but he knows
how to grab those rebounds,
handle the ball and how to play
a superb defensive game. |
hardly think any Mr.. Beal from
Cambridge will score any 22
points against Newark when he
has fellow like Craig guard
ing him. Don't get the idea
Craig can't score for he can and
will.
Senior Jack Pease and Elmer
Munkachy took scoring honors
with 13 and II points, respec-
lively. Pease made two re-
markable shots under the basket
and also batted in two buckets,
quite a feat for a small fellow.
Munkachy scored most of his
points with long shots. Dee
Smelling scored eight points in
his usual manner. John Starrett,
a sub, tossed in six points.
Vaughn Malone, sub forward,
knows how to get his shots and
the next time he'll make them.

cred the whole earth.
We recall them as we study anew
these passages upon discipleship-
the Chosen People establishing and
disseminating the truth of one God;
the disciples of Jesus, trudging these
dusty roads amid the gray hills,
from city to city, from village to
village, everywhere telling the
Kingdom Story; the early church
afiame with missionary zeal, carry
ing the good news to the limits of
the known world; the HISTORIANS
bearing the message to far Pekin;
the Roman Catholics establishing
the church in Japan; the church
fathers, with matchless intellect,
clarifying and organizing the Chris
tian faith; the modern missionaries,
obeying literally the command to
preach the Gospel to all the world;
the ebb and flow of the tides of
religious feeling among mankind;
the present influence of Christian
ideals in legislative halls, in the
educational system, in the pulpit
and in the press.
Blots on the Page.
Not all the chapters in this mighty
record are glorious. There have
been sad lapses from the teachings
of the Savior. Periods of persecu-
tion, of bigotry, of intolerance, blot
the pages of Christian history. Even
in the experience of Jesus and
His companions, with the glow of
the TRANSPORTATION upon them, we
find outbursts of the same sort of
intolerance that is the bane of re-
ligion today. The gentle Apostle
John wanted to forbid a man from
exercising demons because he did
not belong to the company of pro-
fessed disciples. Later, John and
his brother James-closest friends
of Jesus-wanted to call down
heavens fire of destruction upon an
inhospitable Samaritan village.
That spirit is abroad in the world
today Supposedly Christian nations
are subjecting Jews to forms of
repression that make sick the hearts
of fair minded men. In our own
land the same spirit of anti
Semitism rears its ugly head. Whole
groups of Christians are held to-
gether by an "anti" something or
other bond. A mood of bitterness,
that is the very opposite of the
gospel teaching, animates many
who think that they alone are
orthodox" and that they alone pos
sess "the truth" Liberals" are
contemptuously intolerant of con-
servatives. Europe has had its book
burning of late, and Russia's
atheism is actively bent upon wiping
out religion.
On the whole. however. in North
America the sectarian bitterness of
so years ago has abated. Churches
are more tolerant of one another's
