FAMILIES SING TOGETHER

FAMILIES SING IOGEIHEN
The beautiful home of Mr..
and Mrs. WILDER Friend was
opened Thursday evening, the
fifth of June, for the joyous
occasion of an evening of song
and verse, when three famil-
les - the first in Zion to help
further the idea of Zoa Pearl
Park, (Which has for a period
of years encircled the country
that families singing together
will make for a better world.
Mrs. Park says:
"The art of singing is a lib
eral education, and the singing
of families together in groups,
one of the greatest agencies in
the emancipation of the whole
world"
The families who contribute
ed to the enjoyment of the
evening were - The Percy
Ruschs, Mona Rusch, the Ger
hard Sucks, the Emmett G.
Morrises, which included fam
lilies Of Beulah Ruth Loblaw,
Edith Elizabeth Friend, Anna
Lewis Tasch, Mrs. Ida Beaups,
Cynthia Ann Koetz, and guests
Mrs. w. E. Lowry and Mr..
and Mrs. Ralph Phil. All the
families contributed numbers,
chief among them being a skit
by Percy and Dorcas Rusch
with Dale and Ronda follow
ing in their footsteps.
(Let us all be careful for
children are great imitators).
"Grandfather's Clock was
sung by all the Stuck family
with Martin Stuck at the
piano. Little three-year old
Margaret Stuck presented a
reading '"The Music Box" The
trio = Beulah Ruth Loblaw,
Edith Elizabeth Friend and
Anna Lewis Tatsch, sang sew
eral numbers to the delight of
all, one Of the most beautiful
being, "Lift Thine Eyes," by
Mendelssohn. Mrs. Emmett G..
Morris sang with poise and
sweetness of tone, "Spring
Song" and informing" b y
Speaks.
Beulah Ruth Loblaw played
many piano selections and
songs were sung by the entire
group with her accompanying.
All enjoyed an evening of hap
piness and good fellowship.
Delicious refreshments were
served and every one was
grateful to Mr.. and Mrs. Will
Der Friend for their gracious
hospitality. The evening was
closed with the blessing, -
"Good-bye, Our God is Watch
ing "O'er You; Good-by, His
Mercy Goes Before You; Good
Bye and Well be Praying for
you, so Goodbye, and God
bless YOU"

victory the bleacher fans are
cheering for. In his heart there
is genuine pride for his
school and his fellow class
mates. But his pride is not con-
ceit. Joe has taken on re-
sponsibility to his. school as
player just as others have TAX
en- on responsibility in ath-
letics and in the circus. These
are not minor responsibilities.
They are important to the
School and they will be i'm
portant to us, the class of AT,
as they were to all former
graduates and as they will be
to all future. graduates-im-
portant in helping us shape
our future.
1t is near graduation now
and we see our Joe greatly i'm
proved by his four years of
high school. He no longer
loses his temper at the slight
est disagreement. He has
learned that, though things do
not always go the way he
wants them to, he must &C
cept them as they are. Though
he might not have thought his
teammate made a foul at the
end of the basketball game,
he learned to accept the re-
feree's decision. The same ap-
plies to his class affairs: per
haps he didn't want to do Just
as some of his fellow students
did; but he must accept the
fact that vote was taken and
a decision made. So he, like the
rest accepts that decision. That
is what we call good sports
manship.
Not only has Joe become a
good sport, but he has also
become a good teammate.
Teamwork is a great help to
us both now and in the future.
In our high school years it has
helped us to win games; in our
future years it will help us to
succeed in that which we as
country and as American
citizens stand for-'Life, Lib
erty, and the Pursuit of Hap
plness." Yes, it is true, "Unit-
ed we stand, divided we
fall"
With this teamwork, how
ever, there must be that will
to win-the ZEAL necessary
to make any accomplishment
worth while.
Thus, after following Joe
through his four years of ath-
letlcs with the Zee-Bees, we
are convinced that all this
Zeal; this enthusiasm for our
team manifested in Zion
Benton Township High School,
is we'll founded.

Enlisted Man 5 Name
Is Omitted by Guard
In Letter on Armory

In its second agreement for use
OF the District National Guard
Armory, Guard officials failed to go
through the formalities of getting
an enlisted guardsmans name on
the papers, 1t was learned today.
:. The second agreement-one with
George Washington University stu
dents for the schools homecoming
dance November WAS signed only
by Col. Peyton G.. Nevitt, Guard
adjutant general.
. The agreement was simply a let
ter. Col. hewitt said, and not
formal contract of the type Staff
Sergt. John c. Mayhem, a telephone
ilneman, was called away from work
to sign. Unlike the first contract,
the letter of agreement did not bear
an approving signature from Brig
Gen. Albert L. Cox, District Ma
-tional Guard commandant.
500 Recruits Specified.
Col. hewitt said the letter speci-
fed that 5000 would be paid to units
of the Guard, subsequently to be
designated, or that the students
would bring in 500 Guard recruits.
Gen. Cox, in explaining the first
contract, said it was signed by an
enlisted man because enlisted mems
benefit groups are going to take
turns sponsoring-and getting the
return from-nonmilitary activities
at the armory.
NoUftt 20 - &l.1
students at George Washington

knowledge the agreement by their
signatures on the same letter. The
agreement stipulated that the stu
dent committee would be credited
with s1.sQ against the 5000 for every
man 1t enlisted. he said.
Idea Was to Get Members"
Our primary idea was to get
members" he said, adding that, if
the goal Is not reached, the money
will be spent for athletic and recrea- =
tional equipment "to benefit the en-
listed men,"
Guard officials hope to use the
$500 collected from the Home
Builders Association for the same
purpose.
AS OF today, the George Washing
ton recruiting drive has netted only
one member, according to Keith
Allen Of 1921 S street NV, chair
man OF the drive He said fra
tern1ty at the school, however, is
considering joining the guard and
forming a company of its own to
spur the campaign.
Col hewitt said Gen. Cox has sew
eral other applications for use Of
the armory under consideration, but
that no other agreements had been
signed so far as he knew.
Recruiting Lags.
The District Guards city-wide
recruiting campaign, to end Novem-
ber is, has goal of more than
400 members. There now are less
than 1000, he said.
Secretary of the Army Royal re-
ported that the national program
to recruit "a man a minute" dur
Ing the two-month drive also is lag
g1ng. ~"r-~
He said about 10000 men enlisted
IN the four weeks between Septem-
Der 16 and October II. The CAM
paign goal Is 1888 new members.
At present, Mr.. Royal said, the
Guards strength is about 10000.

Asked if there are any public

replied:

Pressed further. Mr.. Anderson
said he would not say, however, that
no public officials have engaged in
such trading.

present margin requirements are
adequate. Futures trading, he said,
