Diamond Jubilee Of Light House on Capitol Fii|F

KNOWN to its friends as
IN The Light House on
Capitol Hill" Eastern PreSby-
terian Church, Sixth street
and Maryland avenue NE, is
celebrating its diamond jubi-
lee this week. A special ami
versary service will be held
at II am. today, and a ban
quet with a program review
ing the church's history is
planned for . Tuesday eve
ming.
The church developed out
of a mems Sunday school
class, which began meeting
in a private home in 1871.
The following year the class
moved to its own chapel on
Eighth street NE, between F
and G streets, and there it
organized as a church on
May 10, 1875, with 80 mem
bers. This number increased
quickly, and a larger building
became necessary. The cor
nerstone for the present edi-
flee was laid April Is, 1892.
In succeeding years fund
raising activities were a ma
jor concern for the church's
members and pastors. Thanks
giving had a special meaning
for the loyal workers in 1915
the last mortgage on their
building had been burned the
night before.
Oldtimers of the church
also like to recall the surprise
visit of President and Mrs.

first Easter in office, and

appear at one or another of
the Presbyterian churches in
the Northwest section of the
city.
Eastern'S members look for
ward to many more years OF
Christian fellowship and serv-
ice. The Rev, William Nesbit

LoUIs-My Champion Forever

New York, N. Y Sadness
and mixed emotions prevailed
here the other mighty ankee
Stadium had seen time take its
toll. The greatest of the great
champions had fallen.
There was no question. The
best man in that ring on the
night of September q was the
Georgia born, Ezzard Charles,
who had come here via Cincin-
natl. None of us would have
taken away Mr.. Charles much
deserved. well earned champ
ionship.
Bat what he hated was to
see the coming of the end, as
it did. Joe Louis had been a
fine representative of the fight
game. Some say he had given
the profession new life when it
was in an obious slump. There
he was in defeat.
The sadness and mixed emo
tions swept across Yankee Sta
dunn like an omen of some
queer believe-it-or-not.' The
nan who had held with dignity
the heavyweight championship
longest, and had defended it
most, had met his fate-in time
and in youth.
Some of us may remember. 1t
was fifteen years before that
the Louis fight career had its
first big notice. In 1885, not
far from Yankee Stadium at
the Polo Grounds, Louis had
tumbled into defeat the Big
Man from Italy, Primo Camera.
Well do l rember that fight.

time. There. for the first time
in my life, l saw the picture of
a Negro ON the front page of

recall, there was Joe Louis

ing newspaper.
Almost overnight. the Dy-
namo out of Detroit became the
idol of youngsters all over the
land = especially little black
boys. From Y gyms. across
school grounds and parks into

the little dukes IN Joe
Louis, "No I'm Louis-You re
Carnera," etc.
No doubt Ezzard Charles was
one of the boys who caught the
81, too, can" spirit. He was
then lad of fourteen. Here l
shall long believe that Charles
stayed the Knockout punch in
the fourteenth in memory of
his admiration for the Great
Champ.
Prior to 1895, the youngster

PATTERN FOR

State Board of Health Adds
New Movie Film on
Atomic Attack
DEFENSE TECHNIQUES

The State Board of Health has
recently added new movie to the
film library on the subject of de-
fense against atomic attack en-
titled. Pattern for Defense" 1t is
a 16 nm color print with a running
time of 20 minutes. Pattern for
Defense" demonstrates the most
logical methods of individual de-
Tense before and during an atomic
attack. The defense techniques
shown have been developed from
study of films and documents OBJ
tanned from the Japanese at the
end of World War II.
Helpful in Planning Action
Authorities operating under the
Civil Defense Program at state and
local levels will find the film help
fu1 in planning essential individual
defensive action before or during
an aerial attack whether it is
atomic or otherwise. In the event
of an aerial attack, fear alone can
cause many casualties above the
number that can be expected when
plans are made beforehand and
people are aware of the part they
must play. This film puts no en-
phasis upon fear but rather at
tennpts to show the problem from
q practical point of view-the only
approach that will be effective.
Available to Organizations
The film will be available to any
responsible organization provided
"a request is made in writing at
least two weeks prior to the pro-
posed showing date. The informa-
tion in the request should include
the statement that 16 nm sound
projection equipment is available
and win be run by qualified oper-
stor, the date of showing and the
willingness to return the film in

Weather stripping stops much
of the whistling and window

Here Is How You Can Install
Your Own Weuther-Strippino

With the approach of winter
weather, the seasoned home
owner turns his attention to the
small items of household prepa-
ration that save fuel or make fol
a more comfortable season. Among
the many small things that an
amateur can do in this direction
is to install weather. stripping
around doors and windows.
The best job of weather-strip-
ping is done with metal double
tapping strip. but it requires ar
exceptionally good mechanic te
install it because of the necessity
of accurate chisel and growing
plane technique.
Wood weather strip with the
rubber edge will produce practi-
cally the. same results.
Cut Material Accurately.
The first step in weather. strip
lping a window is to measure the
number of feet required and gel
the material on hand. The win
dow is then closed and length
of strip cut which will accurately
cover one side of the lower sash
This is tackled with light brads
to the inside of the window frame
so that the rubber edge bears
snugly against the lower sash
frame. Both lower sides are fitted
thusly. The strip for the upper
sash is nailed to the window frame
on the outside.
Windows should be tested for
easy operation as the work goes
on. All strip should be painted
to match the window. but the
rubber edge should not be painted
as it loses it's flexibility when
covered with dry paint.
When the most inexpensive
misunderstanding is desired, the
home-owner can use felt strip.
This comes in rolls about Is feet
