al Founders Day and entertained
two outof-state outstanding So
rors.
Mrs. Arnetta G. Wallace, Dir

speaker at a program held Sun
day afternoon at Central Metho-
dist Church. Mrs. Wallace chose
a biblical theme for her very time
ly address on building peace in
which she analysed the problem
of world brotherhood to show the
needs to which a minority peo-
pie may address themselves. She
concluded by pointing out techni-
ques for participating in public
affairs to the end of achieving
the goals of democracy for all
people. Qualifying for the ballot,
serving in civic organization, put
ting serious thought and fore
sight into every effort which has
the remotest implications for So
cial good, and making common
with the white masses who are
also underprivileged were among
suggestions made by Mrs. Wall
ace, who is a teacher in the Knox
vile, Tennessee school system.

also weekend guest of the local
chapter. Miss Chisholm who holds
a matters degree in health educat-
ion, discussed helth problems of

The perspiring arbitres, sitting
around their Yankee Stadium

during New York's heat spell
wondered if such a deal ever had
been pulled. 1t had.
Albert D. (Hop) Riopel, assist

College, was the victim of such
"a larrup?less Lilliputian Is or 10
years ago when he was coaching
Milford, Mass, high school in a
game against Maynard. Mass,
high school. Don Lent was the
Maynard coach. -.
Riopefs boys were sporting a
small lead in the late innings
when Lent decided getting men
on base was essential if he was
going to get anybody across the
plate.
So he sent a little five-footer
into the batter's box, sans bat.
Il sent him to the plate with
out bat because he's small and
hard to pitch too-but he'll swing
at anything" Lent explained to
the expostulating Riopel in a long
plate argument.
And what did the maceless
mite do?
Well, it seems the prolonged
rhubarb between the rival coach

Milford pitcher.

calls, set off game winning rail-
