Boing Mi, mi, mi-i-i." Ex-
cuse us. We went up to Ohio
Wesleyan University last Satur-
day to music festival. We had
so much fun we hate to quit sing
ing. Some of LtIS'S band mern-
bers as well as singers went along
to make with d melody. We spent
the day in rehearsal for the big
performance that evening. Ever
if we do say SO ourselves, il
was great! OF course, the kids
that were there from other schools
helped some, too
Speaking of the music depart
ment, we were missing the most
important cog in our machine last
week Mr. Creighton was III. But
our student directors saved tine
sessions! They stepped UP on the
podium to wave that baton like
veterans. Nevertheless, We were
glad to see our music engine's s
broken part was mended enough
to sit in the audience for pep
meeting Friday We really missed
you, Mr. Creighton!
Caution: Brains at work!
Last Friday morning The atul,
hall echoed the busy hum OF
straining brain cells as seniors
from all over Madison County
worked their way through the all
nual Senior Scholarship Test
Was the test hard? All we know
is that Mr. Brill is supposed to
have swept up three bushel bask-
cts of gnawed finger nails after
school that night
Some Enchanted Evening"
Last Friday night was transform
ed into some enchanted evening
all right! Here's the formula.
The seniors strewed frilly paper
hearts all over the cafeteria, dim
med the lights, and presto
they had the perfect place for
Cupid's Carnival, their Valentine
dance. Paul and Eddy Orchestra
provided some Of the drcamiest
music we've heard In a long time.
The cake walks provided food

for the hungry and tidy sum for
the seniors treasury! What more
can you ask?
The entrance to a stupendous
week of basketball was marked
by the downing of Grove City
But that was only the beginning!
Next came the spine-tingling
game between the Raiders and
the League leading Marysville
Monarchs. 1t was wonderful
game tthis being the prize un-
der statement of the year) It
was not until the final gun that
Marysville threw in the white
flag and London became the vic

Six lead. Let's not forget that the
sometimes forgotten Reserves
also won both games.

perform public service. ..... w..
On River road, between Burning Tree
road and Wilson road. going toward
Washington, one drives downhill, crosses
stream, thence uphill between fairly
high banks. with dense woods on both
sides.
Twice in this stretch within the past
several years, have observed the body
Of large snake apparently killed by
passing motorists. The second occasion
was May 81. Both times the color of
the snake was so striking that I stopped
the car and made an identification.
Both snakes were large copperheads, one
four feet long, the other about three
feet.
1t seems to me that the people residing
in the general vicinity should receive
some warning Of this possible condition
since there may be others.
know it is easy to get historical on
the subject Of snakes. but temperate
warning against permitting small chill
dren to play near these woods unat-
tended. or against walking around at
night without flashlights. or lifting wood
from brush piles, or wood stacks, without
first looking carefully, would be reason

Spires Of the Spirit
Pulling for the Horizon
Spires Of the Spirit

A nationally known comedian once
enacted a scene with two companions.
It might have been called '"Three Men
in a Boat With the aid Of flashing
spotlights, stormy music and superb act
ing there was created the vivid illusion
of being lost at sea in a small boat. One
man was rowing desperately; one was
scanning the heaving sea, hoping Tor
some means Of escape. The other was
bailing out the inrushing water. Shouted
the one manning the oars, "See any
land?" Amid the roar of the tempest
the reply came back, mo land! I see
only the horizon With words that
resodnded with magnificent courage the
famous actor kept crying out: Lets
pull for the horizon! It's better than
nothing" Whether uttered in a night
club or church. in skit or sermon,
that phrase, Pull for the horizon" is a
memorable one. Somehow, in it there
is contagious courage, fine scorn OF
giving up, a defiance of seemingly hope
less circumstances, grim determination
to keep on grasping the oars with Moth
ing but the horizon for dim land dis
tant goal.
What heroic exploits could be re-
corded in a chapter with the caption
Pulling for the Horizon!" AS we come
to think of it, America was discovered
by an intrepid mariner who, when no
land was in sight, in spite of pleading
and threats, cried: Pull for the hori-
zon" That was one of the worlds
sublime ventures in faith. Columbus
sailed on and on, straight into chaos
when it seemed pure madness to keep
pulling for the horizon. ..
Crossing the stormy sea. the May
flower came at last to the stern and
rockboupd coast of a new England
because it's little band of pioneers were
pulling for the horizon. while, on the
tiny, tossing vessel they signed their
solemn compact. I'm the name Of God.
Amen" But that famous vessel not
only pulled for the horizon; 1t finally
bumped against more than a continent;
1t struck new idea, new conception
Of political and moral life.
In the winning Of the West it was a
reckoning horizon which lured On the
prairie schooners heading ever toward
the setting sun. Dauntlessly they
rumbled on and on and on. over
mountains and through rivers, pulling
fol the horizons in spite of savages,
beasts and disease.
And. so. to the Santa Maria always
must be added the Mayflower and the
Prairie Schooner as we think of the
America which still is being discovered.

Letters to The Star

tinged with theocratic fanaticism :"
This is very broad generalization I'M
substantiated by concrete evidence.
There is no doubt that demand for
national independence is articulate, but
by no means is it reckless xenophobia"
(xenophobia meaning dislike of foreign
ers). How would these authors lend
their name and prestige to such falsi-
fication of facts is beyond my compre-
hension. How would they explain the
presence of hundreds of American. Eng
lish, French educators and scholars in
these areas uninjured, but on the con-
trary. loved and admired in every Arab
village and city? How would they
explain the treatment which foreign
business interests get in these various
countries? Or, are the acts of q few
fanatics criteria to characterize the
whole nationalist movement? Are the
acts Of the Ku Klux Khan or America
Firsters a fair standard to judge the
American people?
Then, they state that the nationalist
movement is also stinged with "theo-
cratic fanaticism" They mean Islamic
fanaticism. Again they are totally mis-
taken, or else how would they explain
the fact that many outstanding leaders
of the nationalist movement are Chris
tan Arabs?
Now what about Israel? Is not the
rationale of Zionist nationalism based
on theocracy and fanatic attachment
to it? What about the large numbers
of extreme groups in Israel are they
not as threatening as extreme groups
anywhere else?
