Frostburg, Md: Elkton, Md, and
Salisbury, N. C. From those en-

Operates on Schedule.
Bowen, who played five years
in the Cardinals chain before be-
coming a talent hunter, has a
schedule for wedding out those
who aren't ready.
On the first day he has all
candidates throw to test their
arms, clocks them with a stop
watch on the 60-yard dash and
gives them a power test to see
how far they can hit.
After the first days work, a
good many of the boys must be
eliminated. That's the distastful
part Of the job - telling a group
of eager youngsters they don't
meet specifications.
1--WE may be wrong" Rex told
them yesterday. "We've been
wrong before. All of you show
signs of becoming good prospects
Most of you, however, are at
least year away. Don't be dis
couraged. Work at it. I hope
to see you back here next year.
Bowen predicts great things fol-
the Pirates. These camps are fol
the benefit of the boys" he says
But we're still selfish enough tc
be looking for some ball players
And we need them.
"As for the future" he says
about the Pittsburgh club, ''it's
bright. Any club under Branch
Hickey has a bright future"
That's the right attitude. Anc
with the right attitude, a young.
ster, too, can find a bright future
in professional baseball.

Nevada Drops Football,
Pointing Out Heavy Cost
By the Associated Press

RENO; July 24.-The regents
early today dropped football from
the University Of Nevada sports
calendar, effective Immediately.
That action presumably means
that Joe Sheeketski, athletic di-
rector and coach, is without his
$.2,5o0 annual job.
The regents refused to discuss
|Sheeketski's status, presumably
wanting time to notify him. But
they said there'd be another i'm
portant announcement later, to-
day.
The regents gave heavy indebt-
|edness in Nevada'S football pro-
gram and heavy stress on the
sport as reasons for abandoning 1t.
According to unofficial records,
Nevada is the 29th school to drop
football since the 1850 season.
Nevada will continue it's other
intercollegiate sports.

HAZARD. Ky.-(P)-In spite of
the surrounding Kentucky hills
which hinder reception, local in
genuity has brought television to
this little community (pOp. TO-

Located in a natural bowl, the
Hazard residents nOnetheless lick
ed their problem by building a
large tower atop a 1,O00-ft. Hill and
stringing house-tO-hOuse cOaxial
lead-ins. They carved a road to
within 200 feet of the peak. Materi-
ais were toted the rest of the way
by hand
The TV cables were run down
the hillside from the tower, strung
along poles of the local utility
company and fed into the homes OF
set owners. This gives Hazard re-
ception from two TV stations in
Cincinnati and one in Huntington,

Editors note: Following is the
complete text Of the speech, "Mis-
conceptions about Buddhism, de-
livered by Florence Chikata of
Seattle at the fourth annual
N. w. YBL convention in Ontario,
Greg, last week-end.)
The most fundamental reason for
the misconception OF Buddhism in
this country can be attributed 10
Western scholars. fiewswriters and
world travellers, who made attempts
to interpret Buddhism TO the occi-
dental world. These men, in all sin
cerity, often made reports and wro e
books on a subject they we're too I'M
qualified to handle
When these men went to China
to ask to see some of the authorize
tive works of Buddhism, too fire.
quently they were handed the Praj-
naparametra- Hrydaye sutra. This
sutra is the shortest of all Buddhist

sutras, takes only few minutes to
read. and is very popular in China.
However, this sutra is deceptive in
its simplicity
Contrary to common belief, enc
cannot read this sutra and then at
tain a logical conclusion through
ordinary thinking This sutra was
written for the intuition, and must
BE handled as such to be understood
1t requires deep meditation.
An illustration OF this point Is
made with the paragraph which
caused the misunderstanding. 1t
goes as follows.
"Oh, Sariputra, form is here emp
ty. emptiness is form;
Form is no other than emptiness,
emptiness is no other than form;
What is form, that is emptiness;
What is emptiness, that is form.
The same can be said of sens atom,
thought, convictions, and conscious
ness"
BY just hearing it, you yourself,
naturally come to the conclusion
that it is pessimistic, and teaches
humiliation. Further illustration
of this point can be made with the
Four Noble Truths. In one Of the
Truths-the Truth of Suffering. the
Buddha said that the whole world
is fun Of suffering, from birth Unto
