The invitation was given in the
words of a proclamation signed
by Thomas J. Tobias, president
of the Kahal Kadosh Beth Flo
him Temple.

year 1850. on Sept. is. the Jews

ignition of their new beginnings
in land Of freedom turned their
hearts and thoughts to the found
ing and dedication Of a religious
congregation which they named
Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim
Holy Congregation. House of
God ....~
The proclamation said that Ka-
hal Kadosh Beth chad prospered
and continued with undiminished
strength through two centuries :.
We are privileged to be alive
at this historic occasion of our
two hundredth anniversary"
Therefore Mr.. Tobias. as presi-

solemn re-dedication of the tenn
pie "rededication to the high
principles that moved our found

country and all mankind"
1 remembered the old temple
of Charleston from some ten
years ago. I was strolling the
Charleston streets, delighting like
one who had discovered a ripe,
mellow and beautiful civilization
of which he had only heard.
It was like being allowed to
return to an earlier century that
had kept faithful to the things
it loved. Elsewhere in the land
old dwellings had given way to
parking lots; here old places
stood in their pristine statelin-
ess. row upon row. I peeped
through fence rails into old gar
dens.
So came to the street where
the temple of Kahal Kadosh Beth
Elohim stands behind a brick
wall and a garden. A bronze
tablet on the wall told me that
the building itself was around
100 years. old and the congrega-
ton almost 200 years then. I
recall that the tablet said this
temple was the cradle of liberal
Judaism in America.
I tried the iron gate: it was
securely locked. I asked myself.
Why don't sYnagogues keep their
door open. all day. as Christian
churches do? I crossed the street
and entered the equally old Cath
ole church. The church and Ka-
hal Kadosh Beth Elohim had
been neighbors 100 years.
Not far from the temple I found
the fathers of the congregation
Under moss-covered tombstones.
The ancient graveyard was like
something archaeological; the
tombstones read like pages of re-
mote Jewish history. The names
they carried frequently were
Spanish or Portuguese. Peixot-
tos and such.
They haunted me, to the IL

year Hartman left. which was

Dicks record was even more bril-
liant than Hartman's in college
and he remained with the Red
skins long enough to become an
all-time favorite.
Todd was Southwest Con-
ference halfback in 1887 and 1888
and generally was recognized as
the greatest running back in the
areas history. AS high school
athlete, his record was fabulous.
In 1884 he set the world record
for high school scoring when he
piled up 318 points for Crowell
(Tex) High. That year he scored
40 touchdowns and kicked "a extra
points. His four-year total was
664 points and over an eight-year
period in high school and college
he scored 780 points, also a world
record.
Like Hartman, Todd joined the
service during the war. He was
in the Navy and for a period
played for the crack Iowa Sea-
hawks, who almost upset mighty
Notre Dame in a 14-13 battle in
1943.

Use particularly as a passer but
who quit pro football after one
season to join Head Coach Wally
Butts at Georgia. Although a
rookie, Hartman saw lot of
action as understudy for the Oft
injured Baugh that year.
Both Todd and Hartman were
triple -threaters in college. In ad-
dition. Bill was an excellent line
backer, one of the best in Georgia
history.
Hartman began his football
career at Madison (Ga) High
School. At the time he was at
tanning prominence as scholastic
star. Butts was a fledging head
coach at the now defunct Madi-

persuaded Hartman to accompany

kU Starting Quintet
Reveals Strength
In Rout Of Gu

With Catholic University's scalp
nailed beside those of the Quantico
Marines and Towson Teachers,
American University has served
notice that it'll be ready for Penn
State, Davis and Elkins and
Georgetown in its next three big
games.
The stunning SO to 76 victory
over the Cardinals was proof
enough that Coach Staff Cassell
he's one good team. at least. al
though the Eagles coach conceded
that he couldn't afford to substi-
tute too freely against the Cards
fer fear of blowing a comforta BILE
lead. Cassell has the task of de-
veloping suitable requirements for
a starting five that even the usu-
ally conservative AU mentor be-
1ieves to be one of his best
productions.
Webster Is AU Star.
The big man last night was tall,
blond Sherwood Webster. whose
one-hand, pivot shots accounted
for IA field goals and five free
shots-33 points. 1t was one of
the most spectacular shooting
demonstrations ever witnessed on
Gus floor and although Leroy
1shman chucked in % to help the
cause and Art Morales contributed
IL, Webster was the w-stopper.
He couldn't miss.
The Eagles missed only four of
their Is charity shots. which is an
indication of how hot they were.
Burley Ed Moffatt confined his
efforts mostly to floor work and
Ronnie Garshag's six field goals
seemed to be lost in the scramble,
but Cassell knows he has a couple
of old reliables in the pair to help
fatten the scoring column when
some of the others cool off. They
also controlled 80 per cent of the
rebounds, tapping in at least a
half dozen shots.
Coach Abe Rosenfields Cardi-
mails. who showed more promise in
preseason work than they've
lived up to, couldn't get going in
the first half when AU ran up a
1927 lead. 1t got worse as the
game progressed and by the time
Joe Della Rata g. Co. found the
range the game was beyond re-
oemption.
Cards Sluggish at Start.
Rosenf1eld had the plays to get
the shots, but the Cards were as
much off as the Eagles were on in
the first half. although Scotty
Cranston, Jim Balint and Herb |
Sondericker finally came through |
with enough field goals in the last
half to make it interesting.
Rosenfield still can make some
thing of this team, which appears
to be suffering badly from jitters |
and q lack Of confidence. This
isn't true Of Rookie George
Hughes. one of the seasons finds.

field goals and three fouls and

The moguls ended three-year
battle to kill the bonus law with
yesterdays action that will affect
43 big league and 278 minor
league bonus players. The rule
officially will be tossed out next
week when the majors do the ex-
pected and follow the minors
initiative.
The high school rule is due to
be revised. An eight-man COM
mittee will be appointed to draw
up a new agreement permitting
baseball to discuss terms with
schoolboys. particularly during
their senior year. Under a pres
ent agreement, which does not
expire until December 81, 1851, a
student may not be approached
until either he or his class has
been graduated.
On the playing front. the only
news Of major caliber was the
signing Of Mike Ryba as coach
Of the st. Louis Cardinals. Ryba,
a former Cardinal pitcher and
catcher, recently resigned as man
| sger Of the Louisville club of the
