YMCA Movement
Related By May
To Kiwanis Club

The Pascagoula Kiwanis Club
Tuesday heard A. P. NAV, execu-
tive secretary of the newly-form-
ed Y. NJ. G. A. here tell some of
the history of his organization and
explain the program that is plan
ned here. He said a well round
ed youth program was planned
for this summer and that he hop
ed it would grow into other pha-
SEES of Y.M.C.A. work at a fu-
ture date.
when this chapter was first
formed, a lot of people here had
the wrong idea about the move
ment", Mr.. May said, There are
many kinds of Y. M. c. AS and
they have various programs. No
two are alike"
The Young Mems Christian As
ISOLATION movement was born in
London in 1874, Mr.. May related,
when one George Williams and
eleven other English youths band
ed together to seek a clean Christ
ian existence, yet an interesting
life, in the city of London.
Since that time, the movement
has spread throughout the world,
MIR. Nav said, but the aim today
is the same as it ALWAYS was: the
development of high standards of
Christian character.

The story may be apocryphal but
it goes that Sammy became SO
enraged he stomped out OF the
stadium and grabbed a street car
going downtown. He was headed
for Duquense University, small
Catholic school located atop a hill
overlooking downtown Pittsburgh.
At Duquense Sammy wasn't ex-
actly discouraged from reporting for
the team. In those days Duquense
was lucky to fill its squad. But
even here Sammy wasn't looked
upon as the answer to the quarter
back problem. At the start he was
third-string signal caller; the club
only had three.
Sammy saw very little action I'M
til the Geneva game. a traditional
contest. when the first two quarter
backs were carted off the field with
injuries. The coach had no alter
native but to insert young Weiss.
On the first play Sammy broke
loose for seventy yards and
touchdown. After that he was the
regular signal barker. For four
years Sammy served his school
we'll. In fact to this day he is still
rated second team quarterback on
Duquense's all-time selection.
One day the team was scheduled
to play away at Marietta College.
The day before the game the
Father in charge of the eleven in

1t was during Sammy's stav in
Washington that he went into the
soft ball field. A group OF youthful
constituents back in Glassport pre-,
vailed upon him to sponsor a

Donora was using an illegal SHIFT
so that time after time Referee
Weiss was forced to penalize that
team. Several touchdown plays
were called back and many long
runs were nullified. The anger OF
the fans reached fever peak as the
final gun sounded. Donora lost by
a touchdown after pushing across a
few recalled" scores. The day
after the contest the Donora paper
front-paged the game story with a
streamer across the top reading,
State Senator Sammy Weiss Robs
Donora of Championship" The
other three officials who worked
the contest were unanimously
agreed that Sammy was correct in
calling the penalties.
When he graduated to the pro
ranks Sammy found the boys fairly
cooperative. When they did get
risky Sammy quickly put them in
place. For example there was the
time big George Musso OF the
Chicago Bears got tough with the
little Congressman. Musso didn't
like the way Sammy called play.

Sammy Weiss parents settled IN
Glassport. Pa. a suburb OF Pitts
burgh. Here Sammy went to school
and despite his 81" stature turned
out to be a cracker-jack quarter
back. OF course he was going to
attend the University OF Pittsburgh.
All would-be-football greats in the
1o20's looked TO Pitt as their future
home. Kids in the Pittsburgh area
never gave another school thought
SO it was only natural for young
Sammy Weiss to wend his way to
Pitt. Ii you know anything about
Jack Sutherland's football you
know he likes his quarterbacks big
and brawny. Sammy was small
and brainy.
The first day at Pitt, Sammy
hurried through his classes and
rushed to the football field. After
waiting around for half an hour
Sammy approached an assistant
coach to ask for a uniform. A
uniform" shouted the coach. why

Sleep" admonished the Padre.
Sammy happened to overhear the
conversation and grew indignant.
He too, wanted to attend Mass.
In fact Sammy attended Mass every
time the football team went to
church. When he graduated the
college president called him aside
and told him with great pride,
Sammy, you've been better Cath
ole than most of our own boys"
Football was. not Weiss only
forte at Duquense. Sammy made
the track team and also spanked
the baseball nine In one game
against Grove City Sammy showed
the boys how centerfield really
should be played. Red Jones.
terrific long ball hitter, was at bat.
Sammy just backed up and waited
for his pitcher to throw to Jones.
Sure enough. the Grove City slug
ger hit the pill and away it sailed
in the direction OF centerfield.
Sammy backed up in hurry and
Just managed to snare the ball as
he toppled into a lake bordering the
diamond. As he went under Sammy
triunphantly held the ball aloft in
his gloved hand.
Always on the go and nervous
by nature. Sammy found it neces-
sary to keep his fingers in the
sports pie after leaving college. He
decided on a career as a football
official. By the time he was in
the State Senate Sammy was con-
sidered the top high school official
in Western Pennsylvania. Sammy
likes to talk about his high school
officiating days perhaps even more
so than his pro career. You never
can tell what kids will do, so some
thing new always crops up on the
scholastic gridiron.
In one game played at Turtle
Greek the field was a quagmire.
On one play Sammy had to dive
into a scrilnmage to revive drown
ing backfield man. On another oc-
casion a high school back was
rounding an end when he spotted
Referee Weiss and tossed the pig
skin to the official. Before five
determined players, intent upon
tackling ball handler. could
smother him. Sammy vigorously
footed his whistle indicating the
ball was dead.
Perhaps the biggest Juror ever
created in the town of Donora Pa.
was perpetrated by Sammy Weiss.
Donora was battling traditional
rival for state honors.....All four
officials. including Weiss. were
the best in the state. 1t seemed

FORMALLY OPENS

Formal opening of the Union

school gymnasium, in Marysville,
Tuesday evening.
Approximately so young people
of all ages and from nearly every
section of the county were present.
Several adults also dropped in dur
ing the evening to look the place
over.
Use of the gymnasium as a re-
creation center has been granted
by the Marysville Board of Educa-
ton until Aug. IS. With permission
