of the
I AIM I'D
Equality Of Man
By MORRIS KRAMER

Though its first appeal was to
the nation whose language it
spoke, yet the ethics of Judaism,
even in its oldest form, was pre-
eminently interhuman. In it's es-
sentials, its fundamental thought
concerning the reason and aim of
morality, it was not a national
but a universal ethics. In other
words, moral knowledge was not
held to have been effectuated for
Israel alone; it was for the world
at large. The ideals of correct
conduct were proclaimed not only
for members of that race i'm the
midst of which they were con-
ceived, but for the whole of man.
kind. That all mankind may join
in the effort to grasp and realize
these ideals is the burden of the
most earnest prayer, the object
of the justified longing and the
ever-reneWed hope of all noble
souls" IN. Lazarus.
The ethics of the Jewish reli-
gion was and still is universal, so
that any person of any nation,
race or creed, if he should follow
it, would have a code of moral
principles on which he could base
his conduct in life and w h C h
would give him serene peace and
happiness. Since the Jewish peo-
pie were outstanding in enuncia-
ting ethical rules and principles
which influenced the world, it is
surprising that there are so many
elements in every country who en-
deavor to attribute to them a
lack of these fine moral tenets
which they so emphatically es-
ppoused and proclaimed.
The Bible and the TaImud and
the teaching of the rabbis and the
sages are replete with injunctiOns
to the Children of Israel to carry
out the doctrine on which true
equality is based, viz: freedom
truth, righteousness and brother.

AN ALL-STAR JEWISH
FOOTBALL GAME

One of the finest prospects for
ronev-raising that the Jewish
nhiIanthrOpic organizations seem
to have overlooked in all these
wears of shelel-gathering has been
an alI-star Jewish football party.
Such a game in which, let us say,
one professional football team
would be pitted against an all-star
Jewish eleven would be a sell-Out
much after the fashion of the col
Iegiate all-stars in their battle
against the pros. Annually 1OO,-
600 fans jam the gigantic Sol
dier's Field in Chicago to witness
the first of these nocturnal af-
fairs and again q week later, the
Polo Grounds are filled to the roof
trees when the Eastern contingent
of the alI-stars swings into ac-
ton against the football champ
ions of the world. In Chicago the
News sponsors the affair and pro-
ceeds go to charity. In the East,
the HeraId-Tribune backs the
game and the returns are handed
over to the Fresh Air Fund con-
Quoted by the last named Organi-
zatiOn. There are some who say
that these games are not only the
opening guns of the football sea-
son but also the highlights of the
year.
Such a game as we have envi-
stoned could set up two dream
teams-and one Of these myth

cal elevens-the kind that looks so
unreal on paper because of it's SUI
perb potentialities-could be COM
posed entirely of Jewish athletes.
These Jewish athletes are known
up and down the countryside.
They were all-Americans in college
and they are greater players on
the professional field. Ask any
fan. Why, you wouldn't be able to
hire a stadium large enough to
house all the fans who would want
to pay any price from $3.50 to
$3.50 to watch this spectacle.
There's no question but that some
Jewish philanthropic organization
is tossing aside cool one hun
dred grand in overlooking such a
bet.
In 19S8-the year that Sid Luck
man and Marshall Goldberg were
cavOrting on their local gridirOns
and earning national prestige. we
wrote a column tha It bore the
somewhat fanciful heading of
"Luckman VS. Goldberg" What a
dream! In this article we went on
to say that there was no question
whatsoever but that Sid and Mar
shall would enter the professional
ranks and that both would even
tually meet on the pro turf. Our
idea was to match a team of all
stars headed by LucIzman against
an eleven captained by the He
brew Hill-Billy-the driver of the
Pittsburgh Juggernaut-Our own
Marshall Goldberg. Only one Or
ganizatiOn was interested enough
to ask us the particulars. We told
them that the entire affair could
be managed for $1,000 -. and this
price would include rental of the
field, travelling expenses for play
erS and officials and the Sundry
odds and ends that make up a bal
game before the ball game starts
We told them that 100000 peO'
pie would fight their way through
the turnstiles. But no. The ex-
pense account 0utweighed all pos
SibiIitieS in their mind and the
thing died of malnutritiOn.
However, one thing did come OF
it. In post-season game, team
led by Sid Luckman played the
Brooklyn Dodgers for the Ger
man Jewish refugee fund ir
Brooklyn, New York. Unadvertisec
and poorly publicized, the game
drew some $4,000 spectators.

Luckman played with the. Chicago
Bears and Goldberg was hired by
the Chicago Cardinals. Since the
day we wrote that column, Gold
berg and Luckman lave played
against each other six times and
in those times the total atten-
dance was well over an average of
10000 per game. Last season
Luckman quarterbacked the Bears
to a worlds championship an d
Goldberg, playing with a cellar
club earned plaudlts and reward
for himself.
But it's not too late for dream
game -. Luckman and Goldberg
on the same team along with nine
other Jewish stalwarts could be
the mythical team of all time. We
could name you twenty others be-
sides these two stalwart Hebrew
lads who could round out two COM
plete teams to take the field for
such a game. And mind you, ev-
cry one of these Jewish ball play
ers are now performing in the
major professional football circuit.
This combination could be matched
against an all-star collegiate elev-
en- or even against an all-star pro-
fessional cast. It would pack the
house.
The reason we write about such
a mythical arrangement at this
time of the year-at time when
the great American game of base
ball is just beginning to pop out
from the training camps is that
now is the strategic time to act.
Arranged now, the game could be
a reality come next Labor Day.
It's national publicity and a hum
dred grand for the Jewish organ
izatiOn interested. Such a thing is
the best thing that could happen
in football. If you're Interested

they had their rights and their
and a freedom of belief
and action which was denied to
the Jewish people themselves
when they were inhabitants of
countries which had the benefit
of the progress of civilization as
compared to the early times when
in Palestine, and later on in their
wanderings they promulgated the
great doctrine of equality for all
men as well as the other great
ideals for which men are waging
war today.

Ray Killsworth who works for

Harry Oakleaf, a barber over
in town says there's no fish here
because he has caught them all.
Andy Beard who works over

catch the big ones any more.
Yep, the same old story-it got

been a whopper.
James Bagent and Archie Free

around town are coming fishing
again next Sunday. / know
they will buy pop, and I'll bet

All Bebout came out to fish
and went back with no fish at
all. Better luck next time Al.

What To Do

study, pursuit, recreation, prac-

found "most efficacious in yield
ing refreshment at this time.
The war is, of course, upper
most in everyone's mind. Pre-
sumably the editor wants to
know what takes our minds off

Although our opportunity to
practice them is limited, we
think that country life, hiking,
gardening, hunting, fishing, and

SNAPPED up rOduWdyS ana dlIeyS.
Several months ago a group
of Newark men composed of
o. P. Cook, w. A. Wallace,
Jack H. Wagner, Merrill
Montgomery, Frank Berry,
George Penick and Guy Law
yer, conceived the idea of plat
ting a new addition to the city
of Newark.
With housing facilities at
a minimum and with income
on the increase among the
families of the community, the
proposition looked very favor
able, and after due considera-
ton the beautiful site now
called Roosevelt Terrace, ad-
jacent to the Roosevelt school
was chosen by the men.
Work of grading streets and
alleys under direction of the
department of public service
was started, water mains and
sewers were laid, building
plats surveyed and plans made
for landscaping the new addi-
tion.
Toward completion of the
preliminary work legislation
was placed before members of
the city council, which upon
passage incorporated Roose-
welt Terarce into the city prop
er. 1t can truly be said, with
the landscaping plans in prog
ress that the new addition is
now one of the most desirable
building spots in Newark, and
this is testified to by the
rapid sale of lots in the area.

isn't a crackpot or hair-brained
idea. What we want and need
is more comfortable press box.

THE NEWARK LEADER, THURSDAY, july 81 1s41

If you have any ideas on how we
can make our plight little bit
easier look us up-care of the
Chatterbox.
HURRAHi-Three cheers for
frankie Frisch and the Pitts
burgh Pirates. The Freebooters
from the Smoky City are really
on the move. At this writing
they are in third place and have
no intention of giving it up. The
Bucs couldn't click at first, but
they never gave up. Frisch said
his Pirates would cause trouble
for someone and they really are.
They took four out of five games
from the slipping Dodgers. The
pitching of Butcher, Hentzel-
man, Sewell, Klinger and the
tobacco chewing Johnny Lam
ming have been mainly due to the
recent squirt. And don't forget
the Pirates have AL Lopez as
their catcher.
CHANCE - 1t won't be long
now before the Columbus Red
Birds will be home for a long
home stand, playing every club
in the league. The Flock has an
excellent chance to take over first
place as they are only a game
and a half out of the top spot.
The Birds could use another pit
cher and a right hand batting
outfielder of the power type, but
we still think the Red Birds will
come through to cop a champion
ship.

gion's interesting scraps at
