@: Upon what beliefs are the doc trines of MethodiS1n based?
 A: Methodism places due efm- phasiS upon the doctrines commonly called orthodox, but places chief stress upon Christian character and service. It has been strong in its defense of the Protestant principals of the right to read the Bible, the right of private interpretation and of freedom of conscience, and it has also been disposted to allow large liberty in non-essentials.

 Q Is the Ecumenical Movement Q Protestant movement?
 A: It would not be fair to describe the Ecumenical' Movement as a Protestant movement, since from the first, Catholics (Eastern Ortho- dox and Old Catholics) and Prot estants have cooperated in it. But 1t is true that 1t has afforded Prot estants Gas for that matter it has afforded the Eastern Orthodox) the opportunity to carry on systematic study of their agreements and dis agreements.

Schroeder Is
New Net Star
BY GAYLE TALBOT

NEW YORK, Sept. 8 -(P)-
Ted Schroeder, Jr., a big, awk-
ward-looking youngster fro m
Glendale, Calf, with "plow-
boy walk something like Bob
Feller'S, is the country's first
tennis champion of the present
war era.
He polished off the veteran
frankie Parker with undisguis-
ed ease and relish in the finals
at Forest Hills yesterday, 8-6,
Us, 3-6, 40, 60, proving him
self a much finer tennis player
than had been realized previ-
ously.
He trimmed the clock like
frankie almost as he pleased
the marathon score being mis-
leading. When Schroeder, with a
much superior service, forehand
and overhead game, wanted to
win any particular game or set,
he simply went in and won it.
The two sets he lost were win
w-dressing for the crowd Of
5000.
HIS VALEDICTORY
When he slammed the ball
away for the final point of his
victory, Schroeder spoke his
valedictory to tennis for the du-
ration. Within a week he ex-
poets to be in the Naval Acad-
envy at Annapolis.
He did not play too we'll at
the start. He looked lazy. Eth
er that or supremely confident.
for he permitted Parker to run
up AZ lead in the opening set
before he bestirred himself and
ran it out. Again in the second
he let Parker get away to So
lead, and then stormed through
five straight games.
That set an unmistakable pat
tern. Even when rarker won the
third and fourth sets to square
the match, there was little doubt
that Schroeder would take the
fifth. He didn't disappoint.
Parker after 10 years of striv-
ing must feel the whole thing is
pretty hopeless as he heads back
TO his movie job in Hollywood
today. 1t seemingly is his fate
that every year some youngster
hobs up to snatch the cherished
title from him.
