The Foe Within

In our battle for justice we
must realize that there are
thousands of traitors within
our rankS-men and women
who, having mortgaged their
own craven souls to our en-
emies, are willing and anx-
lous to sell out our group for
q mess of pottage. IN myriads
Of instances they have al
ready done so. Many of these
beings are like moles which
burrow beneath the surface,
and they have by their perm
icious activities placed the
entire structure of our rights
in peril. The vileSt, cruelest,
most brutal, craftiest, most
cold-blooded outspoken en-
envy is far less dangerous
than the vile, crafty, sinking,

MATES, abilities, scouting and a
nursary. This plan, which also
calls for volunteer workers,
would eventually qualify the
Center to operate on a self-Sup-
porting basis as do the various
centers in Cambridge and else
where. This project was the
original vision of the conmun-
ity and will gain community
support. Each Wednesday night
through May 3Oth, the Center
will continue to present prize
whist and bridge games, so that
if you missed the first you can
still drop down and meet the
neighbors and play and plan at
the same time. This weekday
does not conflict with the
church. Grand prizes are 60
ing to be presented in the finals
of the card competition.
Programs of dancing will now
BE- conducted as a regular Fri
day night feature at Colonial
Hall in Medford square with the
latest Jump music provided by
Doug Schenks under the direc-
ton of the Rhy Inn Club. This
highly satisfactory arrange
ment, aided by direct bus serv-
