Rising Tide 10 Reuniie
P Presbyterian Church |! |:
Reported 10 Assembly
BY fhs Assoeiutsd Press


GRAND RAPIDS. Mich. May "a
"A rising tide" for reunion d
the Presbyterian Church was. re-
ported today by DR.. Frederick II
Evans of Troy. N. X
The retiring moderator OF the
General Assembly Of the Presby-
terian Church In the u. S. Al. was
principal speaker at the formal
opening of the l59th assembly OF
the church. More than $50 dele
gates were here for the conference.
Although mo voice in our church
that we have heard has been lifted
against the movement, DR.. Evans
said, activities OF some 1anti" groups
force the conclusion "that the real
stumbling blocks" to reunion must
be athe division in our own souls"
The topic of church unity is ex-
pected to be q major consideration
at the meeting, which closes May 28.
Two recommendations were reported
ready for presentation: One pro-
posal for unification with the South
ern Presbyterians and the other
urging church unity program by
the Federal Council Of Churches.
Reporting on contributions to the
church's $27, 600 900 restoration fund,
DR.. Evans said $24 ,0O0, 900 had al
ready been given 4'by probably less
than LOCO, 900 Of a church member
ship Of 2,200, 900"
This was "the largest voluntary
outlay Of money by the smallest
number of people in the shortest
time In history" he said.
If the Presbyterian Church is to
reach the "Heaven-given' goal, 1t
has set for Januarye1. 1850 of 800
additional churches and 1000, 900
new members-Dr. Evans declared,
it will require a faith like that Of
those achieving Christians of the
middle of the first century, dynamic,
resistless."

CITY OPTICAL

Alpha Omega's Clyde Jordan,
dean of Wilmington softball pitch
ers, Tipped himself a brilliant
two-hit, 0 shutout over highly
regarded City Optical last night
in the only game Of a scheduled
doubleheade- at Robert Strange
park. The second tussle between
Spofford Mills and the Brother
hood Of Railway Clerks was rain
ed out.
Clyde Jordan, who had been the
ace pitcher of the circuit this sea-
son, struck out three and issued
no bases on balls in the lop-sided
struggle. 1t was his best perform
ance of the campaign.
The Alpha Omega team scored
five runs in the second inning and
two in the sixth. j. c. Price open

with a walk, went to second when

duties on the Pirates side.
Nate Andrews had tcken the
hill for Wilmington, and after set
ting down the Robins beautifully
in the first frame, he ran into no
little trouble in the next one. Red
Springs countered twice on two
hits, a couple of fielders' choices,
and an error.
Tom Clayton, whose two hon.
ers had a pronounced effect in
downing the BUGS twice Sunday at
Red Springs, was Safe at third
when Bob Steckel let his ground
er dribble through to left field.
Parnell forced Clayton at second,
and Don Brown put Parnell in
home with a high smash to right
off Eddie Hardisky's glove. Fol
lowing that, Jackson hit to Bob
La Blanc at shortstop, and Brown
was caught trying to reach third.
Jackson was safe at first. He stole
second, and Papa, the Robins new
backstop, singled to score him.
Jeff Warren, Robin hurler, lined
to Hardisky to end the spree.
Warren had been very ineffec-
tive during the first inning, when
the BUGS nearly scored, and had
walked Bob Steckel, the first bat
ter to face him in the second. Bill
Alsnauer came to bat and the.
rains started falling. It fell lightly
at first, then harder, then still
harder, and fans began to wonder
If the umpires' chest protectors
were really life jackets.
Finally, after three minutes of
it, both Reveille and Mitchell rails
ed their hands, and they and eigh-
teen players raced for the dug
outs. Edens, Benton and Lamb
passed them on the way; they
were heading for the pastures to
retrieve their gloves.
During the first frame, the Pr
rates threatened seriously but
couldn't score. They loaded the
bases on two walks and a single
by Bob La Blanc. After two were
out. Johnny Fdens tapped one back

shoveled it back to first to cut out
all the monkey business.
After the rain had fallen for
about 20 minutes, it suddenly quit.
