The face of Ohio will be
greatly changed within the next
decade as the proposed super
highway turnpikes are construc-
ted. Already, Ohio's newly ap-
pointed Turnpike Commission
has chosen the tentative route
for the first of these great
roads, which is shown above in
black across the Northern part
of the State. Four alternate
routes for future considerations
are outlined. If all legal and
financial problems of the Com
mission are cleared up without
undue delay, Ohioans may ex-
pect to be using the first turn
pike super highway by the end
Of 1853.
Above is shown an ARTISTS
conception of the turnpike
which will cross Ohio giving
motorists a super highway un-
obstructed by cross roads, steep
grades, sharp curves, or oppos-
ing traffic.
Based upon the success of the
Pennsylvania Turnpike, the Ohio
Commission is confident the
Buckeye State project can be
successful.

No Tu1arernia
Cases Reported

There have been no cases of
tularemia (rabbit fever} recorded
in Ohio for the first two weeks of
the Ohio hunting season, accord
ing to DR.. John ID. Porterfeld, Di-
rector of the Department of
Health.
In 1941, 213 cases were record
ed, dropping to 20 in 1912 and to
IL in 1915. Last year Is cases
were reported at the close Of the
rabbit hunting season.
1t is thought that the impor-
tation of rabbits from other states
for statewide restocking some ten
to fifteen years ago was respon-
sible for the spread Of tularemia.
A small number of rabbits are i'm
ported by a few sportsmen's clubs
each year, but generally speaking
the rabbit population of Ohio is
native and disease-free. Since the
large importation practice has
been discontinued, tularemia cases
have declined from year to year.
Biologists have often stated
that the rabbit is host to more
diseases and parasites than any
other wild creature. Hunters are
cautioned therefore, to wear rub
Der gloves when dressing wild
game. Rabbits with internal or
gans studded with small, white
dots should be destroyed.
Some hunters destroy rabbits on
which MARBLES (small external
bumps) are found, thinking they
are diseased. Marbles, it has been
said, are just rs normal on rab-
bits as fleas are on a dog.

REDSKINS OPEN SEASON
AT OAK HARB0R T0NITE

Port Clinton's 1940-50 Redskir
edition opens its 17-game schedule
this Friday night at the Oak Har-
Dor high school auditorium when
Coach John Edwin's Rockets fur
nish the opposition.
An interesting battle is forecast
as the Redskins haven't forgotten
the Rocket victory in football
early last month. With Belshaw,
Fritz, Masing, Franck, Ohm, Bias
kis, Riddle and other gridders now
playing varsity basketball, things
could happen.
Oak Harbor's new Rocket cage
team is hoping to break the Port
Clinton victory record through the
years. In two games last year,
the Redskins had easy nights in
defeating the Rockets, Sc to 80,
and 65 to 45.
Port Clinton also lost two star
players, Dave Krupp and Andy
Migala, through graduation, this
spring. Coaches Norm Willbond
and "Doc" Wenzel should have
strong team, however, as nine let
termen have returned and are boil
stored by some capable young
sters.
Coaches Norm Willbond and
"Doc" Wenzel have Cutting"
job this week as they must re-
duce their squad of 1S players
to the IL permitted by high school
rules.
There were eight seniors, six
sophomores and four Juniors still
on the squad Tuesday.
Coach sErwin expects to present
a strong Rocket cage squad this
year as only Ronald Schumacher
and Randall Finken were lost

Catholic Information
Ever virgin?" What say the Gospels?

Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ, was a virgin throughout her life.
 This is an article of faith which every Catholic must believe be- cause it is one of Gods truths re- vealed through Scripture and through Tradition. Now Tradition comes to us by word of mouth and by written word, that is, the writ ings of the early Fathers. As both are Gods revelations, they cannot conflict.
 But aren't there conflicts? For instance, was Mary always a vir- gin? Yes" says tradition. But don't both Matthew and Mark contradict this when they tell us of the brethren of the Lord"?
 Brethren of the Lord," surely; but if this means blood-brothers, then how about other texts? For instance, the Scriptures plainly imply that these brethren were older than Jesus. If blood-broth- CTS, then Mary must have had children before Jesus. Then Jesus was not born of virgin. Then St. Luke's famous first chapter is en- tirely askew.
 Again, if Jesus had blood-broth- CTS, why is He so freqently called the son of Mary"-only He? If He had blood-brothers why di6 He not, when dying on the Cross, con- fide His Blessed Mother to one of them rather than to St John who was the son of Zebedee and Sa- lome?
 And so we become entirely con-
 fused-until the scholars tell |
