The Fey Crusaders were grasp
ing victory in its hands but the
team let it slip through its fingers.
In its seasons opener of the Jack
son st. Com munity basketball
league, the Methodist BIS pulled
the Crusaders off their high horse
27-21. The Fey were leading at
half time but that didn't bother the
japanese boys the second half. The
Laigo brothers found the Garfield
court suitable as Ed made six and
Jerry four digits. Bobbie Santos
also had four.
In its second conference game,
the Fey Crusaders suffered the
worst defeat of it's athletic career
at the expense of the Knights on
December 8.

The Jackson Street Community
Junior Council called two meetings
and representative of the Fey
have promptly attended both to
bolster the clubs interest among
other youths.
The Junior Council is an off
spring of the Jackson Street Com
munity Councils senior group. The
youth organizations of the Japan
csc Methodist, Baptist and Pres
byterian Churches, of the Negro
PhalanX, of the Jewish Knights are
members.
The Fey is carrying on the rep
resentation of Maryknoll parish
alone so far. Of course, it is the
only Filipino youth group present
in the Council. Henia and Angie
Bernardino are the Ambassadors.
These two sisters are co-chair-
men of the invitation committee of
the Council to sponsor a dinner
meeting January 10 at Neighbor-
hood House. The purpose of this
meeting is to draw university pro-
fessors to talk on Youth Leadership
for the youth present.
It'll do lot of good to the future
civic leaders we've got around.
There won't be dance or a party.
But still it'll be eating and learn
ing at the same time. If you're seri-
Gus at learning something-come.
Otherwise don't!

Of course, when the second
generation sees that the older gen.
GRAFTON is never on time for any
thing, what are the youths going to
think? Will it get worse -?
There was a particular council
meeting in which 16 players of
the Cavaliers" decided to attend.
After an hour and a half of wait
ing that Sunday afternoon, the
boys saw that most of their time
was wasted. Disgruntled and dis
appointed, they left. But before
they did file out, one remarked,
'Tell them (the older people) that
if this is the example that they
are giving us (the younger people)
they ought to be ashamed"
For a New Years resolution:
ABOLISH PINOY TIMEl Let's
see what you can do.

FILIPINO TIME

chop Suey, the Indians their peace
pipe, the Mexicans their siesta,
but we Filipinos have undoubtedly
the "PINOY TIME.
Those people who started 'Pinoy
Time should either be hanged,
shot or exiled from any civilization.
The expression "PinOy Time" may
be defined as that practice which
advocates the overthrow of eti-
quette, courtesy and manners by
inducing FilipinOs to make fools
of themselves by never being pune
tuaI at an appointed time.
This habit is practiced wher-
ever there are groups of Filipinos
from the borders of Mexico, sweep
ing past all of California way up to
Alaska. The most .discouraging
thing is that even here in our own
community "Pinoy Time" is just as
bad as any other place.
The Community Council
We see it in our civic affairs.
The community needs only II out
of 80 officers for a council meeting,
making UP quorum. But do even
IL show up? One instance, meet
ing was to be held at one-thirty.
Two hours later the meeting had
to be diSbanded because of insult
ficient number. Other meetings
have to be extended an hour or two
after their regular appointed time.
All the council members are
notified for meetings. Well, maybe
the absentees just don't want to
accept the responsibilities. Prob
ably the word for dances and So
Gals just travels around quicker
than the word for meetings.
We see it in our religious affairs.
Father Haggerty sometimes delays
Mass for 10 minutes just so every
one will be there when Mass does
start.
How would you feel if you in
vited friends for dinner and they
would constantly arrive late? How
would you feel if you were late
for an appointment with the COVER
nor or mayor? What would he
think of you. 9of#$H
A Priest in California
One day a priest in California
reminded his Filipino group to
attend an affair. To which he add
ed, "And remember-no Pinoy
Time!" Yes, it may sound funny
but it hurts, too.
Then we see it in our social af-
fairs. If banquet invitations read
o'clock, people would start
pouring in at 7:30. The last July
4th banquet could not start on time,
neither did this recent convention
banquet. Why? Not enough people
present when it was supposed to
start
PinoyS have a knack of inviting
civic officials and social leaders as
guest speakers at banquets. Oh
well, the honored and distinguished
guests are mostly NOT Pinoys,
anyway. What do they care if it
doesn't start on time. Meetings are
just as bad or worse. You know
that from former experiences. OF
course, it keeps all of the good but
disgusted members away from at
tending. But you're not disgusted,
are you?
There are many reasons why
people are late for functions. Many
people happen to quit work with
only a little time to spare before
function begins. After all, you've
got to clean up, dress and eat yet.
There are traffic laws, so you can't
rush down at 80 MPH. You can
think of other excuses that are nat
urally and justifiably reasonable.
But people with a little time to
spare are not working at the same
time.
Poor Excuse
But for those people who have
no honest excuse at all-who make
Pinoy Time habit-who don't
give a darn about others Many

Poor Excuse

But for those people who have
no honest excuse at all-who make

give a darn about others d. Many
Filipinos just say to themselves and
to others, why should | hurry?
That thing isn't going to start on

GI Insurance
DeadIine kears

World War II veterans with
service-mcurred disabilities are re-
minded of an important deadline in
connection with their entitlement
to National Service Life Insurance,
according to a statement released
today by Bob DeKay, Commissioner
of Veterans Affairs.
Prior to January l, 1850. such
disabilities actually incurred in
service between October 8, 1910,
and September 2, l945, if less than
total in degree, are disregarded in
determining eligibility under the
health requirements of NSLI pur-
poses.
This means that veterans who
might not otherwise qualify for
life insurance for health reasons
may reinstate lapsed NSLI or buy
new or additional insurance up to
the $4,000 maximum if they apply
before the end of the year.
A physical examination is requir-
ed, however. for all insurance APP
piled for under this special provi-
sion. Such examinations are made
by the Veterans Administration
without cost to the veteran.

The brief stated:
"The right to enjoy and exercise

the inalienable rights with which
every man is endowed by his Crea-
