Ben Beasley, owner and manager
of the Mardi Gras Grill, also spon-
scr of the Mardi Gras fasball team,
has introduced into the commune
ty the spirit and community inter-
est necessary for progress. The
members of the Mardi Gras team
as a whole have been participating
in various leagues throughout the
city for the past five years. Due
to the lack of interest, these vari-
Gus teams throughout the years
have been average teams.
This year, Mr.. Beasley equipped
the team members with uniforms;
also supplied in de luxe fashion all
other equipment necessary. In re-
Spouse to this charitable endeavor
on the part of Mr.. Beasley, his
Mardi Gras team has come
through brilliantly. Having played
six games, winning five and los
ing one, the Mardi Gras team
leads the league. In the six games
played, the Mardi Gras has scored
fifty runs to the opponents four

for the worlds middleweight
crown for over year now. Robin
son has had to make a compromise.
AS a result of beating Robert Vii
lemain, French middleweight con-
tender, he owns a 1/4S share of the
worlds middleweight title. Jake
Lamotta owns the other AZ shares.
Graziano is going to try to lift
Lamotta's shares later this month
and in ninety days all the shares
will belong to Sugar" Ray. Jake
Lamotta is the present middle
weight King, at least in every
state except Pennsylvania. In
Pennsylvania Robinson is the
champ. Later this month Lamotta
will fight Rocky Graziano for the
championship. But in ninety days
the winner must fight Ray Robin
son for the title. Robinson can
beat Lamotta any day in the week
and twice on Sunday, as he has
proven four times before. The
Graziane of old may have put up
stiff argument for the crown.
With the Graziano of today, it
wouldn't even be a contest. So
you see Robinson will wind UP
with the crown anyway. Is it al
clear now?
HERE AND THERE
For some reason it seems that
the foreign fighters don't fare so
well with American fighters home
or abroad. Take the cases of Rob-
inson v. Villimain, or Jersey Joe
Walcott v. Helm Ten Hoff or Lee
Savold v. Bruce Woodcock. The
batting championship of the Ma
tional league is going to be a
hot race between Jackie Robinson
and Stan Musial. Jackie has begun
to make his move on Stan who is
the present leader. If Ray Robin
son ever quit fighting he could
make his living as dancer or a
drummer, He is an expert in both.
1.-The Jackie Robinson Story" is
now on the Seattle screens and
every sport fan should make it a
special date to see it.

Semi-mourning for the massacre
of the $4,000 disciples of Rabbi
Akiba during the Bar Kochba re-
bellion against the Roman legions
(130 c. e., this day was chosen as
holiday from mourning. Accord
ing to some authorities, the mas
sacre ceased on this day.
Others claim that the massacre
lasted 80 days and so the 33rd day
was marked as a festive occasion
It also happens that the thirty
third day falls upon the eighteenth
day of the month of Iyar. On
that day, it is claimed, mama
first fell from Heaven to feed the
Israelites during their weary jour-
ney through the desert.
QUESTION: How is this festi-
val observed?
ANSWER: There is no prescrib-
ed prayers for this festival and
work is permitted. 1t is known as
a scholars festival" because the
Hebrew school children are given
a day off and the students of the
seminaries are allowded all sorts
of amusement. In Israel the Jews
of Sefad and the neighboring
settlements gather near the vii
lage of Meron on this day where
the great Rabbi Akiba is assumed
to be buried. Special hymns are
chanted and bonfires are made in
the neighborhood of the grave.
The children play with bows and
arrows and all penitential prayers
are omitted from the synagogue
ritual for the day.

story recounts other reasons, too.
Remember, Joseph and Benjamin
are both the children of Rachel,
the favorite wife of Jacob.
Poor Leah. She knew she had
been put over on Jacob. When
she had her first son. she called
him Reuben. for that means. "See
son." that is to say. that the Lord
hath looked on her affliction and
now perchance she thinks Jacob
will love her. And when she had
her second son. she named him
Simeon. and it's the same story
again. Simeon means. that THE
Lord hath heard that she was
hated"
Through her children, she was
hoping to win place in the heart
of Jacob as against the more be-
loved but barren Rachel.
Later. Rachel gives birth to Jo-
seph and Jacob loves him above
all the others and makes for him
a coat of many colors. and this
favoritism puts ideas into Joseph's
head. He begins to dream dreams
and tells his brothers of one of
these dreams-how he saw stalks
Of grain. representing his brothers
bowling in the field. to the stalk
which represented him.
And what is the upshot? The
brothers plan to do away with
him and finally sell him down
Egypt way.
The story Of Joseph and his
brothers is really nothing but a
recapitulation of what had hap
pened to Joseph's father. Jacob.
You. remember. Isaac favored
Esau above Jacob and it was only
Jacobs flight which saved him
from being done away with by
Esau.
And the story of the brothers,
Cain and Abel makes the same
point essentially. The offering of
Abel is favored above that of
Cain.
