MONARCH'S DRAW
TEAM FROM CINCY
Lockland Wayne Foe
In Regional Tourney

-Marysville High School will
play Lockland Wayne, of Cincin-
natl, in the Glass "B" regional
tournament at Springfield, at 8
,. m. Thursday.
Drawings for the regional meet
took place at Wittenburg College
Sunday afternoon.
The Monarchs earned the right
to play in the regional tourna-
ment( actually a part of the state
play-offs by defeating Worthing-
ton, 1884, in the central district
contest at WeSterville, Saturday
evening.
The other district winner was
Bremen, who defeated Marion St.
Marys Friday night 42-36, n d
will play in the regionals at
Athens,
All that Marysville's coaches
know about Lockland Wayne is
what they were able TO gather at
the drawing, Sunday, and that
was not too much, as the Lock
land coach was not at all informa-
tive.
They did learn, however, that
the Lockland team has an over
all record of "a victories and two
defeats, and they have been play
ing some might fast company in
and around Cincinnati. The Lock
land outfit is regarded as one OF
the states best "B" teams and
one of those favored for the state
championship.
Other teams in the Springfield
regional tournament are Enon, of
Clark County; and Eton, of
Preble County.
MarySville was allotted SOC
tickets for the Springfield meet
ing, all of which were sold by
2 p. m. today. There will be 250
more reserved seats available al
the Wittenburg gymnasium in
the morning, limited to a maxi
mum of 4 per person. They will
be sold to the first persons who
telephone Springfield after 10 a,
m. Tuesday.

RELIGIOUS TRAINING TO CONTINUE HERE
PENDING MORE WORD ON COURT RULING

School heads in Union County,
undecided as to their next step
in the Religious Education pro-
gram in the schools after recent
Supreme Couling against it, have
decided to let the program con-
tinue until definite word is re-
ceived one way or the other.
County Supt. Gale w. Baldwin
said that, unless there was local
complaint against the program,
he saw no reason to discontinue
it until given word to do SO by
the state department.
Some question has been raised
about the ruling as handed down
by the Supreme Court Monday,
The ruling stated that religious
sects may not use Americas pub
lie schools to teach their beliefs. F"
1t is not clearly stated whether
this applies only to secular in
struction or to overall religious
instruction as well.
III. w. Carr, superintendent of
Marysville schools, stated, I'VE
will continue as usual, until other
wise notified. So far, have re-
ceived no word about the matter
and know only what I've read
in the newspapers and heard on
the radio"
Only five schools of Union
county are offering religious in
struction at the present time
These are Marysville, Redwood
Pharisburg, Jackson and Ray
mond. All are taught by Miss
Eletha Rogers, who was hired fol-
the position by the Union County
Council of Churches, which spon-
sors the classes.
Attendance at the classes is

against bloc voting by Negroes.
Although Thompson said that

He had managed several of his
fathers campaigns for governor,
