PrayFOryisiion
BY Ruth TAYLOR

Where there is no vision, the
people perish"
In this hour of trial and tribu-
lations, when a deadly, devastating
war has been unleashed upon us,
and the storms of conflicting ru-
mors are stirring up intense an
xieties, let us pray for vision to
see.
First, let us pray for vision to
see with clarity what lies before
us in the coming months, to face
the reality of things, uncolored by
any shade of personal bias, wheth-
er it be the rose color of undue
optimism, the deep green of pes
simism, the flaming red of anger,
the vivid yellow of pride or the
gray of Indifference. Pray for vi,
sion to see clearly things as they
really are here and now.
Second let us pray for vision to
see with discernment; to look be-
meath the surface; to weigh every
statement, considering well its
source not to be taken by wave
of carefully stimulated mob opin-
ion, nor by any of the wild rumors
so carefully set afloat by subvers-
i've elements, and so well calcu-
lated to upset the morale an6
minds of our sincere, Godfearing
people. Pray for vision to see
through mists that veil the truth
Third, let us pray for vision tc
see with understanding, to view
with dispassionate but clear eyes
not only what is going on, but also
the people whom it affect; to SCI
all of ourpeople with eyes of com
passion and sympathy, compre
hending their problems and judg
ing them as individuals, withou
regard for race, creed, or color
never indulging in generalities o.
discrimination against any groul
of our fellow citizens. Pray TO
vision to see kindly.
Fourth, let us pray for vision t.
see with inspiration, to look aheat
toward distant goal; to keep be
fore us always the high aims to
wards which we as a nation ar
striving; to place honor and in
tegrity, courage and forbearance
duty and faith, first in our live
and to seek always what we ma.
give in loyal service for the pre-
servation of this democracy AM
its ideal of equality for all. Pra.
for vision to see ahead.
where there is no vision, tn
people perish; but he that keepetl
the law, happy is he"

LAKELAND. Fla. March 2l.--
When the Tigers came 10 camp
here this spring. pitching loomed
as the clubs weightiest problem.
II may yet be the most serious
problem but on the relative show
ing of the pitching and hitting so
far, it looks like lack of power at
the plate is the most vital matter
confronting the Tige r master
minds.
The Tiger hitting in the exhibit
tion games to date has been ter
rible.
Rudy York's home run against
the Cincinnati Reds. Friday. was
the first show of power with eight
interleague games played. only
two of which the Tigers had won.
The team as a whole, is hitting
a pitiful mark Of less than 200.
In training camps, those who run
them. give you the old wheezes
about the pitching is ahead Of
the batting" or. if il better fits
the alibi. "the hitting is ahead Of
the pitching" But while exhibit
ton games in Florida do not pay

lar schedule. the results are sup
posed 10 give one an idea Of what
